Story 169


                                                      No Script!

                                            The actress quipped:


                                            I will be laid in a tomb or crypt,


                                            As dead as the pharaohs of Egypt,


                                            Before I reed lines of any script.



                                            My fans shall not be gypped!


                                            My style has never been clipped,


                                            So now as before my public will hear,


                                            Only ad-libbed words that I have lipped.


                              Change: adlibbed to ad-libbed; and read to reed.






              Story 170


                                                    The Swiss Miss


                       Oh, the land of Swiss is a land of bliss. You ask, why is this?

                       It's because every miss, always looks so prim and priss.



                       And although little boys may hiss, none can resist the

                       maidens’ sweet sweet kiss.


                       Change: comma removed between sweet and sweet.
