Miss Beatrice, The church organist

Miss Beatrice, The church organist, Was in her
eighties And had never been married. She was admired for her
sweetness And kindness to all.



One afternoon the pastor Came to call on her and she showed him
into her quaint sitting room. She invited him to have a seat while
she prepared tea...


As he sat facing her old Hammond organ, The young minister Noticed
a cut glass bowl Sitting on top of it. The bowl was filled With
water, and in the water Floated, of all things, a condom!


When she returned With tea and scones, They began to chat. The
pastor tried to stifle his curiosity About the bowl of water and
its strange floater, but soon it got the better of him and he
could no longer resist. 'Miss Beatrice', he said, 'I wonder if you
would tell me about this?' Pointing to the bowl.


 'Oh, yes,' she replied, 'Isn't it wonderful? I was walking
through The Park a few months ago And I found this little package
on the ground. The directions said To place it on the organ, Keep
it wet and that it would prevent the spread of disease.. Do you
know I haven't had the flu all winter.
