THIS BOY WEEK'S PAIN
Erik Anderson, not avery big boy

. through these columns that raw
chestnuts which are so abundant and
easily gotten just now, are not fit
for anything but squrriels. The doctor says he will be back in-school

What to Write
Oh. wirra me, What shall I write
This somber, autumn day,
As little wispy, nit-wit thoughts
Within my brain cells play?
Now here is something ready made—
A really clever jest,
But . can’t use the .dratted thing—
It’s one of Irv Cobb’s best. ‘
How would a bit of scandal do?
Oh, nothing really bad;
I] wouldn’t wreck a happy home
Or make tale bearers glad;
But I have heard a spicy yarn,
The kind for which some thirst;
Alas, I’m out of luck again,
Walt Winchell heard it first.
-.[ think I'll wander to the town
And tally all . see;
The mayor speaking with a friend,
A matron sipping tea,
The sheriff in his new fall hat,
The chief preventing fire,
But wouldn't this smack much too much
Of O. O. McIntyre?
Now if I cannot catch the thoughts of clever writing men+#.
And neatly turn them to my use
Convincingly, what then >?
‘. won't write anything,’
After prolonged reflection,
