Show 'Ear, 'Ear! : "There was a good deal of baseball played in London last summer, 'and the doughboys often took English girls to see the game,' said Karl Uunmore at a Washington reception. "I heard of a doughbov who said to a girl as they entered the ball grounds together: to-gether: " 'If there ' ia anything you want explained, ex-plained, tell me. I guesa a lot of things seem meaningless' to you.' " 'Everything seems meaningless,' said the girl, 'and some tilings seem idiotic' " 'What seems idiotic?' asked the doughboy. ' " 'Well,' said the girl, 'why do you call seats the stands?' " Detroit Free Press. |
