A SUPERINTENDING Engineer (S. E.) of the CPWD was inspecting the furniture section. He wanted to test the knowledge of his subordinates.
"What kind of wood is this?" he asked one.
"Teak, sir. C. P. Teak," replied the subordinate.
"And the plywood?"
"Duroply sir. It bears the ISI mark. Best in the market.
"And the board?"
"Pamella Borde, sir," replied the smarty subordinate.
"What do you mean? This is Duro board," growled the S. E.
"Sir, we have renamed it Pamella Borde, because it is the best available and universally used."

A government official was arrested for accepting a bribe from a contractor. A friend who went to visit him in the lock-up asked, "How are you going to get out of this mess?"

A NEWLY-employed villager was very weak in English. Once he asked his more educated neighbour to draft an application asking for casual leave for a day as he was down with fever.
The neighbour dictated the application in the following words: "Respected Sir-As I am suffering from fever, I may kindly be granted casual leave for today only."
He kept a copy of his application for subsequent use. Later, on the eve of his sister's marriage, he wrote an application on his own. It read as follows: "Respected Sir-As I am suffering from my sister's marriage tomorrow, kindly grant me casual leave for the next two days."

A FEW years back Bombayites were up in arms against the deteriorating civic amenities of the metropolis. The dug-up roads, mountains of refuse, open man-holes and unhealthy atmosphere in the civic hospitals caused public anger. The newspapers of Bombay also backed the citizens of Bombay and, day in and day out, articles were written about the utter lack of civic amenities inspite of the huge municipal taxes collected by the Corporation.
In this surcharged atmosphere, the cross road between Bandstand and Hill road was dug up to lay sewer drains of bigger dimensions-a routine matter for the BMC. The engineer-in-charge hit on an idea and instead of putting up that rickety board "CAUTION MEN AT WORK", he displayed a neat blackboard and wrote in bold letters
"Citizen-Your Taxes on Work."
Next morning the engineer found himself oversmarted by some guy who had added one line to the idea: "GOING DOWN THE DRAIN."

A GOVERNMENT servant went to a doctor. "Doctor
