BETWEEN YOU AND ME

The world is old, yet likes to laugh

New jokes are hard to find,

A whole new editorial staff

Can't tickle every mind.
 

Marie S.: "Why is a kiss like gossip?"
Hazel J.: "Because it goes from mouth to mouth."

Mr. Carr, (rapping on desk): "Order! Order!"
Frank I.: (awaking): "Ham and eggs, please."

Lost: All control of my hair. Any one finding any information on this subject, please return to Nella Reed.

Mr. Carr: "What college would you like to go to?"
Lavoune: "Vassar."

Miss Reid: "Young man, were you out after ten last night?"
Lewis J.: "No, I was out only after one."

Life is a joke,
All things show it.
Look at the Freshmen,
Then you will know it.

Miss Reid: "do you know where little boys go when they smoke?"

One romantic girl in O.H.S. uses "Sweetheart Face Cream." "Djer Kiss" face powder and "Love Me" rouge.

Frank I.: "what are you running for, Curley?"
Curley J.: "I'm trying to keep two fellows from fighting.
Frank I: "Who are the fellows?"
Curley J: "LaVoune G. and me."

Hearn (Reading a sign): "Keep Out: this means you."
"Well, I'll be - How did they know I was coming?"

Mr. Axton (In Physics): "what do we know about cells?"
Bert M. "Not very much, I've only been in two."

I went to the river and started to drown,
Tho't of my woman and couldn't go down.

Hair tonic used to be used for shampoos. Now it is used for shambooze.

Naomi (excitedly: "Oh, Lavoune, I saw your pictures."
Lavoune: "Were they good?"
Naomi: "One was dandy, all but your face."

She: "What is the shape of a kiss?"
He: "Give me one and I'll call it square."

Wanted: A date for the Junior-Senior Reception - Ralph Fee.

Wanted: A messenger boy to carry notes. - Ab. Day

To Trade: some experience in flirting for some real good behavior. - Neola Y.

Dorothy (Talking to Buck J.): "You would be a good dancer if it wasn't for two things."
Buck J.: "What's that?"
Dorothy: "Your feet."

Hazel J.: "I feel a draft."
Harold R.: "Well, shut your mouth."

Helen W.: "I am going to teach school next year."
Fanny:" Donald can you imagine Helen teaching school?"
Donald P.: "Yes, but it sure strains my imagination."

Pete Mc: "I flunked that Physics test flat."
Bert M.: "What was the matter? Didn't you know the questions?"
Pete: "Yes, but I had Vaseline on my hair, and they all slipped my mind."

So, if you meet some ancient joke,
Decked out in modern guise.
Don't frown and call the thing a fake
Just laugh - and don't be too wise.
