The Cosy Corner By Irveena Elizabeth Loren FROM THE WISE Child: “Mother what is a waif?” Mother: “A waif is a girl with no home.” Child: “Where does she walk af ter an automobile ride?” The young wife baked her first pumpkin pie for her husband. Later at dinner he asked: “Who spilled the mustard in that pie?” First Girl: "Who was that man I saw you with yesterday?” Second Girl: "That was no man, it was my brother.” — Betty Loren: "Ernestine, don’t you think I’m rather brilliant?” Ernestine Taylor: "You’re so dumb you think the Mexican board ing house is on the Mexican border.” . — ...4.

I've bought loo much for her on the installment plan!” Mother: ‘1 Dorothy, you disobeyed mid you can’t have your candy now. ’ ’ Dorothy’s Father: “You’ve been quiet for twenty minutes. What’s wrong?” Dorothy: “I’ve been fined for speeding.” Young Child: “Mama, come suick. 1 ’m falling to pieces. My tooth just dropped out!” Student No. 1: “What arc sen ators?” Student No. 2: “God made these men out of clay and stood them against n wall; when lie returned with the brains they were gone.” LITERATURE LORE My Mother My mother is most dear to me, Without her I don’t know where I’d lie; For it is she who every day Makes me happy in some way. When I’m feeling cross and blue, And with my lessons I'm not thru, Who but that dear mother of mine, Comforts and pleases every time. My mother always understands My cares and hardships new, So I give her all the love That I know she is due. OUT OF GAS We were breezing along in our new Pontiac, with yellow pools of sunlight bathing the dusty road be fore us. Spring was apparently just around the corner. A little bird, merely a sparrow, sat on an old stump chirping its glad song to us. Everything seemed quite cheerful indeed. Everyone was chatting noisily', when all of a sudden the car gave a lurch and came to a dead standstill. The noise ceased, and did we stare! The driver couldn’t imagine what the trouble was. Of course he wouldn’t with a new Pontiac. Some one suggested that we all get out and examine the auto. We did. The first thing wc did was to look blank, then all together— “We’re out of gas!’’ LINCOLN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS The Advocate, the school ]>a]>or, and “The Links,” the annual book, are now on sale.
