I was perusing my old paper files today and came across this puzzle so I scanned it. Each box represents some kind of common term or saying. For example, # 1 is "sandbox," #2 is "man overboard," and so forth. Good luck!

One of my favorites was

Wood

Massachusetts

It was on a letter that was successfully delivered via the U.S. Mail (back in the day...)

Where did it go?

Hint: #22 on the right, the silhouette is supposed to be a girl.

misunderstanding between friends?

I don't get the big partial circle or G or whatever it is around the girl under "standing"

I am thinking it might be a "G" and because it is curled it would be "Gurled" and be --misunderstanding between girlfriends.
Would not bet my D40 on it, however.

Stu: R12 is Line up, in alphabetical order.

DTC so close: R22 is "A little miss under stand in G between friends."
