UNION HOUSE A dedicated shop steward was at a convention in Las Vegas and decided to check out the local brothels. When he got to the first one, he asked the Madame, "Is this a union house?" "No, I'm sorry it isn't," she said. "Well, if I pay you $100, what cut do the girls get?" he inquired. "The house gets $80 and the girls get $20," the Madame replied. Mightily offended at such unfair dealings, the man stomped off down the street in search of a more equitable shop. His search continued throughout the night until finally he reached a brothel where the Madame said, "Why yes, this is a union house." "And if I pay you $100, what cut do the girls get?" he asked. "The girls get $80 and the house gets $20," said the Madame. "That's more like it!" the man said. He looked around the room and pointed to a stunningly attractive redhead. "I'd like her for the night," he said. "I'm sure you would, sir," said the Madame, ... gesturing to an unattractive old woman in the corner, "... but Bertha here has seniority!"

Traveling - It's a Joy and Most Amusing Signs from hotels and such found 'round the world: In a Tokyo Hotel: Is forbidden to steal hotel towels please. If you are not a person to do such a thing is please not to read notis. In a Bucharest hotel lobby: The lift is being fixed for the next day. During that time we regret that you will be unbearable. In a Leipzig elevator: Do not enter lift backwards, and only when lit up. In a Belgrade hotel elevator: To move the cabin, push button for wishing floor. If the cabin should enter more persons, each one should press a number of wishing floor. Driving is then going alphabetically by national order.

In a Japanese hotel: You are invited to take advantage of the chambermaid. In an Austrian hotel catering to the skiers: Not to perambulate the corridors during the hours of repose in the boots of Ascension.

On the menu of a Polish hotel: Salad a firm's own make; limpid red beet soup with cheesy dumplings in the form of a finger; roasted duck let loose; beef rashers beaten up in the country people's fashion. Outside a Hong Kong tailer shop: Ladies may have a fit upstairs. Outside a Paris dress shop: Dresses for street walking. Happy trails!
