This Week’s Cover
- Since the merchant and the mother do not like to see oranges rolling into the street and maybe becoming squashes, they are now in disharmony with Junior. As the lad comes before the bar of fuzzy-minded adult justice, let us defend him. Is it not true that the defendant had to remove an orange from the bottom of the stack, since the man piled them so high Junior couldn’t reach the top one? Did not said Junior show great character in not going for the apples instead, the fruits dislocating a larger number of ribs? Is it not apparent that if his mother had eyes in the back of her head, or Mr. Dohanos had painted her using split vision, this never would have happened? Verdict: defendant acquitted. And don’t ever do that again, you hear?
