that Nehru’s schedule was already
completed and he will not be
coming to the United States until

LITTLE STORIES WITH BIG MORALS
First Little Story
Once upon a time when the inventors of the airplane
were very small boys, the roof on their house developed
a terrible leak. A repairman was called to fix it. He set
his ladder against the side of the house, but it was a
very tall house and his ladder was not quite long enough
to reach the roof.
“Sir, we have an idea,” said the boys who even at that
tender age were resourceful little chaps. “We will get
up on top of the ladder and boost you up on the roof.”
So the boys climbed.to the top of the ladder, and the
repairman came after them, and they tried to boost him
up on the roof. But, alas, the plan did not work and they
all came tumbling down in a heap.
MORAL: Ttut Wrights don’t make a rung.
Second Little Story
Once upon a time a German exchange student came
from Old-Heidelberg to an American university. One
night there was a bull session going on in the room next
to his. “Ach, excuse me,” he said timidly to the group of
young men assembled thei'e, u aber what is that heavenly
smell I smell?”
“Why, that is the fragrant aroma of our Philip Morris
cigarettes,” said one of the men.
“Himmel, such natural tobacco goodness!”
“It comes in regular size in the handy Snap-Open pack,
or in long size in the new crushproof box... . Won’t you
try one?”
“Dankesch'dn” said the German exchange student
happily, and from that night forward, whenever the men
lit up Philip Morris Cigarettes, he never failed to be
present.
MORAL: Where there’s smoke, there’s Meyer.
Third Little Story
Once upon a time Penelope, the wife of Ulysses, had
herself a mess of trouble in Ithaca. With her husband
away at the Trojan War, all the local blades were wooing
Penelope like crazy. She stalled them by saying she
wouldn’t make her choice until she finished weaving a
rug. Each night when her suitors had gone home, Penel
ope, that sly minx, would unravel all the weaving she
had done during the day.
Well sir, one night she left her rug lying outside. It
rained buckets, and the rug got all matted and shrunken,
and Penelope couldn’t unwind it. When the suitors came
back in the morning, the poor frantic woman started
running all over the house looking for a place to hide.
Well sir, it happened that Sappho, the poetess, had
come over the night before to write an ode about Penel
ope’s Grecian urn. So she said, “Hey, Penelope, why
don’t you hide in this urn ? I think it’s big enough if you’ll
kind of squinch down.”
So Penelope hopped in the urn, and it concealed her
perfectly except for her hair-do which was worn upswept
in the Greek manner.
Well sir, with the suitors pounding on the door, Sap
pho had to move fast. She whipped out a razor and cut
off Penelope’s hair. The suitors looked high and low but
they couldn’t find Penelope.
MORAL: A Penny shaved is a Penny urned.
