A Good Education

A Jewish father, entertaining some friends, told his four-year-old son,

Abie, to stand on a chair.

“Now, Abie,” he said, “jump to fadder.”

As soon as Abie jumped, the father stepped out of the way and let the

boy fall on his face on the floor. Asked why he had done so, the father

replied:

“I am teaching dot boy not to trust anybody, not even his own fadder.”
