SURE WAY TO PROPOSE
Here is an American yarn:—
An irate motorist in Cambridge, Massachusetts, called up the police by telephone and demanded:— '
"Is it against the law to propose to a girl in this city?"
The station officer was sure it was not. "Why, what was the bother?" The irate voice explained that every
time he had summoned up enough courage to park his car with the girl in it, an officer flashed his lamp into the car and ordered the driver to move
The station officer suggested that the inquirer should park his car in front of police headquarters; where no one would dare interfere. '
The voice rang up again later and asked the station officer to the wedding in June!
