FIRST DATE
A fine old gentleman walked into the fashionable florist shop. “I want a beautiful corsage,” he said, “not a big one, but just about the prettiest one you can make.” He smiled broadly, “It’s for my granddaughter, and she’s having her first date tomorrow.” The florist was aIl sympathetic interest. “How old is the young lady?” he asked, eyeing his flowers speculatively. “Two weeks,” replied the grandfather. The florist turned in utter amazement. “Did you say . . . a date . . . a corsage . . . two weeks old?’ “Precisely,” said the old gentleman. “And I want a corsage that’s exactly right. She’ll never have a more important date than she has tomorrow. My little granddaughter is going to be baptized.” CK
