SHE got on a car going down-town. She was a freshman, and when the conductor came around after her nickel she said:

“Does this car go to Camp Randall?”

“Yes,” said the conductor. “It says ‘Boston Baked Beans’ on one of the signs on the inside, but the car doesn’t go to Boston.”

The young girl got off at the next corner.
