Part Two. A Funny Story1
 Like Father, Like Son

       A staid-looking gentleman was upset at the dress of some young people on the street.

​        “Just look at that one,” he asked a bystander, “Is it a boy or a girl?”

​        “It’s a boy. He’s my son.”

​        “Oh, forgive me. I didn’t know you were his mother.”

​        “I’m not. I’m his father.”
