German Morals.
A senator was talking at a tea fn Providence about the Germans. “I heard a young lady schoolteacher tell a story the other day,” he said, “which brought the Germans vividly to my mind. “The young lady said she came upon two of her pupils one afternoon in a wood. The older pupil was eating a stick of candy. The younger one was howling with rage and grief on the ground. The young lady inquired into the matter and soon learned how the land lay. “‘Gus,’ she said to the older boy. indignantly, ‘do you think it’s fair to take Tommy’s stick of candy away from him?’ “‘Fair?’ said Gus, as he sucked away. ‘I don’t have to be fair. I can lick him.’.” —Washington Star.
