You might live through it, but we
are afraid. Here we are again insult-
ing your intelligence by trying to in-
form you of who's who and what's
what along our travels. Well here
goes:
The first thing on the program will
be a one act play entitled “Hern's
Lumbago’:
Herm: “Chick, I've got a bad case of |
lumbago.” i
Chick: “You've got a bad case of]
lumbago, Herm?”
Herm: “Yes, sir, Chick, that’s what
I got.”
Chick: “What are you doing
about |
that lumbago, Herm?” |
|
Herm: “Nothing.”
Chick: “Nothing?”
Herm: “That’s it Chick.” |
Chick: “But a fellow ought to do
something with it Herm.”
Herm: “What would you do if vou |
had a bad case of lumbago, Chick?”
Chick: “If I had a bad case of lum- |
bago, Herm; I would sell it. I know |
a lot of fellows who'll drink most any-
thing.” Ha, Ha. “Ha!

The Kingston township high school
is the only high school in the rural
district that is not represented with
a football team this Fall? The town-
ship is much larger than Dallas town-
ship and they have a first class team
and a very fine coach. And at the
present it looks as though the high
school will not be represented on the
basketball court this winter. Tough!
