‘We’re here to end it, by jingo.’ / ‘We’ll lick the Heinies okay.’ / ‘I can’t get on to the lingo.’ / ‘Dumb—they don’t get what we say.’ // ‘Call that stuff coffee? You oughter / Know better. Gee, take it away.' / ‘Oh, for a drink of ice water!' / ‘They think nut-sundae’s a day.' / ‘Say, is this chicken feed money?' / ‘Say, does it rain every day?’ / ‘Say, Lady, isn’t it funny / Every one drives the wrong way?'
