Jus' Try to Control Your Hilarity

The tried and true 'hat flying off' trick.

  1. In another sequence (Gone Pogo pp. 30-31) Porky asks Beauregard "How do you make your hat fly off?" They try to make it work for Porky, but trading hats doesn't work (Beauregard's was lighter than in this strip), and neither does rewriting the joke with noodle soup instead of cocoa.

    So the question remains unanswered: How do you make your hat fly off? The answer doesn't seem to be in the poem that starts the chapter:

    "With me no flight for kite," he said,
    "But I can scat my hat from head,
    And make it hide beneath the bed
    And that's my plight, no kite," he said.
