Try and By BENNETT CERF- JOKE CURRENT in Madison avenue advertising agencies: An. account executive was told to provide an exhaustive study about fleas. He laboriously trained a medium-sized flea to jump over his finger every time he said "Hup." Then he pulled off two of the flea's six legs. "Hup," he grunted. The flea jumped over his finger. Off came two more legs. "Hup," re peated the executive. Again the flea jumped. Then he pulled off the flea's last two legs. Alas, the flea no longer moved. The executive nod ded sagely, and wrote in his report, "When a flea loses i all six of its legs, it becomes deaf." i The sale of vodka has been soaring in the U.
