GOETHE.
You just have to hand it to
Milwaukee for being the check-ing-up
capital of the nation.
When an argument-settler iiom
that city gets down to business,
it ends the dispute. As for ex
ample: "I see you are having
an argument as to who wakes
up the bugler," writes a Mil
waukee subscriber. "That I can
tell you. I was a bugler in the
United States army for four and
a half years. At times while on
guard duty the sergeant or the
corporal of the guard woke me.
However, I wish to state with
a great deal of emphasis that on
a great many of the mornings I
was on duty as bugler I had to
wake myself with my trusty old
alarm clock.
Getting Married
Young woman, about to be
married, asks me to quote the
old poem about, "Best Colt -r To
Be Married In." I assume she
refers to the following:
Married in blue (
Your love will be true,
Married in white
You'll fight and fight.
Married In black,
You'll wish yourself back,
Married in green
You'll live like a queen. ,

Have heard of a California
mother whose three sons were
born sixteen years apart! That
is, she became a mother at the
age of 17, again at 33 and again
at 49. Extremely unusual. I
doubt even Brooklyn can top it
. . . Following are some nick
names from the United States
department of justice files: "Iron
Foot Florence," "High Ball Lil,"
"Third Cut Bradley," "Powder

nickname is still that of the
character of the Old West known
as "Two Ace Dora."

The name of that film in
which Gable and Jean Harlow

started talking about old joke3
What is the first joke you re
member hearing in vaudeville?
A. Well, sir I recall when I was
a high school kid I heard a come
dian at the old Orpheum say to
his feminine partner: "When I
married you I thought I had
married an angel." She replied:
"I guess that's why you never
bought me any clothes." Not
much of a gag. but I remember
it got a big laugh from the fe
male customers. Q. What is the
origin of the line: "The Villain
still pursued her?" A. It Is from
a very old play titled. "The Phoe
