WHY MOSES WAS'NT BLESSED.

' ' Yes, ma'am.' ' And was Moses blessed for what he had done ?' ' No, ma'am.' < Why not ?' This was a poser for some time, but finally a rough-looking small boy held up his hand. ' Well, Tommy, why not P asked the teacher encouragingly. ' Cos, mum, he didn't strike it for beer.'
