“Necessity is the mother of invention.”
(continued from previous page)18 There is no use in shutting the stable door when the horse is gone.
19 Every tub should sit on its own bottom.
20 Every herring should hang by its own tail.
21 Everyone should sweeten his own tooth with his own penny.
22 No shilling like your own.
23 The “daho”(?) killed the goat.
24 What my granny put on the cabbage was little good.
25 Charley took a car and Foramore(?) had to walk.
