There’s an old story about
the tough sergeant who, af-
ter he had drilled the awk-
ward squad for an hoar, halt-
ed them and addressed them
in a fatherly tone:
“Years ago," said he, “when
1 was a small boy I used to
worry my poor mother to
death for a set of wooden sol-
diers. Every Christmas I beg-
ged and begged for my set of
wooden soldiers but Santa
Claus never gave them to me
. . . But now, you : assorted
bunch of butteredfingered
dum-clucks, I've found them!"
And now The Farrow conies

potting the squad of recruits
through a tough drill. Sudden-
ly he halted them and ad-
vanced upon one man with
menacing grimness.
“For three weeks I’ve been
trying to pound some sense in-
to your head,” he said, “and I
ask you—have some learned
one single thing?"
“Just one,” said the re-
cruit. "Now 1 know why sol-
diers aren’t afraid to die.”

She Couldn't Use It
When mother sat down to
luncheon, with Aunt Mary,
who had just arrived for a visit
she was so fascinated by some
news her sister had imparted
to her that she momentarily
forgot to give little Margaret
anything to eat.
The child waited patiently
to be served, but presently,
her hunger getting the better
of her, she held her plate high
and in a plaintive voice in-
quired, “Does anybody want a
clean plate?” — Christian
