Folklore Tales and Train Fare Laughs in Urban Vignettes
A fragmentary folklore column by William Wade presents Jewish humor and misheard lines. A woman carries an armful of buns and a child while a daughter claims no fares for a mother who is sick. Three men chase a train, two reach the platform, the third misses it and laughs as he is left behind. The groom, told he is at the end of all troubles, later confronts the minister who clarified the wording. An American Saying ends with a quip about a man who answers how he is.
