WORTH THE TROUBLE
"I believe you are thinner than the last time I saw you, Mrs. Jones. Are you taking treatments or dieting to lose weight?" "Oh no, I'm losing weight be-cause of all the trouble I'm hav-ing with my new maid." "Why don't you fire her?" "I'm going to just as soon as she worries me down to 140 pounds."
VACANCY COMING UP
There's a tale going around a college campus of a certain Eng-lish professor who went over to a local apartment house and asked to see a list of people living in it. He didn't have to go through very many names before he found the one he was looking for, and said, "Put my name down for this man's apartment, please. I just flunked him, and he'll be dropping out of school any day now."
