S MAIL TRIBUNE. Mcdfoni. Oregon, Tuetaiy, November 18. 1958
Try and Stop Me
By BENNETT CERF-
A SECTION FOREMAN on the Erie Railroad was well known
for driving his men hard. He stamped over to a veteran
member of his squad and reared, "How often must I tell you to
lift your pick higher off the
ground?"
"It's you I'm trying to
protect, sir,' was the diplo
matic reply. "You hang
right over my shoulder so
much, Pm afraid of hitting
you in the eye!"
The teacher of a sixth-grade
class in Brooklyn couldn't
understand why all the kids
began hoarding pennies at the
same time. Then she spotted
the new sign in a stamp and
coin shop block away: "We
pay 123 for 1900 pennies."
Have you beard about the big-shot business magnate who was on
the verge of committing suicide until he discovered that the cleaning
woman had bung the graph behind his desk upside down?

Man Blames High-Jest
Salisbury, England -HHPD
The Rev. John Wansey was
fined $8.40 for speeding to
day despite his plea that high
test gasoline made him drive
faster than the 30 mile per
hour limit.
"A premium motor fuel
had been put into the tank,
not by me, and I was unac
customed to its unque pow
ers," he said in a letter to
the court.
"It made me travel at a
higher speed when the accel-
GasoJine for Speeding
erator pedal was in the nor
mal position for 30 mph."
