COMMUNISM
We were talking to our friend O'Doul about politics, and he was calm

fiercely; "but it's this Communism that makes me mad; I'm not going to
stand for any form of government under which a man can come up to me
and say, 'O'Doul, there are too many men just like you in New York.
You go out and live in Columbus.'"
A--"Your communism is stupid. If everything were divided today, in a
very short time your portion would be gone. What then?"
B--"Divide again!"

soldier was showing the scenery to a doughboy.
"I have been in this section ever since the beginning of the war," he
said. "Back there is Commercy, where my home is."
"I suppose you get home once in a while?" said the doughboy.
"Nearly every week," was the response.
"Hell," said the doughboy, thinking of his own home in South Bend,
Ind. Then, calling to a comrade, he added: "Hey, buddie; here's a guy
