The famous violinist was giving a recital in a certain Scottish town. One of the local mothers had taken her small son to hear him, hoping that the beauty of the master’s playing would inspire the boy to put his whole heart into his violin lessons. On arrival at the hall she was disappointed to learn that all the shilling seats wore full. "In fact, there’s no room anywhere,” added the man in the box office. “Even the 10s rows are all occupied.” “What!” exclaimed the woman. “Yon mean to tell me that people will give 10s to hear a fiddler?” The man nodded. And the fond mother turned round and dealt her ton a terrific box on the ears. “Now,” she said, “perhaps you’ll practise!” The passengers in a big sports car were having a lively argument as to whether'they would beat a train at a level crossing. “Don’t get excited,” cried the driver. “ I'can do it easily.” “And I say you can’t!” yelled the man at the side of the driver. “The train’s going a lot faster than we are.” “Well,” said the passenger in the rear scat, “I don’t care who wins this race, so long as it’s not a dead heat.”
