A frayed humor piece recounts a traveling man arguing warts vanish when not thought of. A newsboy’s hands spread warts, the father culls his son’s. The tale ends with a carnival of punchlines about puns and cheeky mischief mixed with mild moral lessons.
A Milwaukee preacher sermonizes about heaven in Madison. Windows open, boys play base ball nearby. A base runner coach shouts through the church window, slide the devil, slide, interrupting the moment.
