Let’s hop on down to the juice joint for some gigglewater!

Applesauce- An exclamation of displeasure
Beat one’s gums- To talk excessively
Cat’s Pajamas- AKA Cat’s meow, the best of something
Don’t take any wooden nickels- Don’t do something foolish
Get a wiggle on- Hurry up
Clams- Money
Giggle Water- Booze
Juice Joint- A bar, or speakeasy (An illegal bar during prohibition)
Spifflicated- Drunk
Now you’re on the trolley!- You’re on the right track
Tomato- A good looking girl
