Braude of Chicago, is one of the best speakers I have ever heard. Along with it, he in terlards his conversation with spicy outdoor o b s e r v a tions Well, you be the judge: A big gun is frequently an in- 7-jo-sr - dividual of small calibre and immense bore. A diplomat is one who can bring home the bacon without spilling the beans. Teacher: "If your mother gave you a large apple and a small one and told you to divide with your brother, which would you give him? Johnnie: "Do you mean my little brother, or my big one?"

Then Coolidge leaned over and gave his to the cat. An accordion, says the Judge, is an instrument invented by the man who couldn't decide how big the one was that got away.

After a short conversation, one man nearly doubled his prices. Fruit in the less expen sive stall began to sell rapidly and its owner restocked from his friendly competitor. This way, both farmers sold nearly every thing they had within two hours. Roud-and-Round Affair A flea and an elephant walked side by side over a little bridge. Said the flea to the elephant after they had crossed it: "Brother, we sure did make that thing shake." This life, says the judge in his latest book, Braude's Second Encyclopedia of Stories, Quota tions, and Anecdotes (Princtice Hall), is a round-and-round af fair. People eat animals, animals eat smaller aniamls, smaller aniamls eat vegetables, vege tables eat animalculae, animal culae eat bacilli, bacilli eat mi crobes, and microbes eafr us. But the cannibal takes the short cut. Men are like fish; neither would get into trouble if they kept their mouths shut.
