ON THE FLY
Two rival insurance agents were talking about the prompt payment of their claims. "If a man died tonight," one boasted, "his widow would receive the full benefit in the first mail tomorrow morning." "That's nothing," exclaimed the other, "Our office is on the 24th floor of the State building. The other day a man jumped from the 13th floor and we handed him his check as he went past the window."
WEATHER REPORT
A certain Washington club decreed that any member caught talking shop within its relaxing portals shall pay a fine of two dollars. One day a popular member, on entering the club, cheerily called out to the assembled company, "Good evening, gentlemen." "Bob," rejoined one of the members, "don't you work at the weather bureau?" Puzzled, Bob admitted that he did. He was fined two dollars! Myakka River State Forest lies east of Sarasota. It has 13,640 acres.
