Who serve.
In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less,
A 10-year- old boy entered a hotel coffee shop and
Sat at a table. A waitress put a glass of water in
Front of him.
' How much is an ice cream sundae?' he asked.
' Fifty cents,' replied the waitress.
The little boy pulled is hand out of his pocket and
Studied the coins in it.
' Well, how much is a plain dish of ice cream?' he inquired.
By now more people were waiting for a table and the
Waitress was growing impatient.
' Thirty-five cents,' she brusquely replied.
The little boy again counted his coins.
' I'll have the plain ice cream,' he said.
The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on
The table and walked away The boy finished the ice
Cream, paid the cashier and left.
When the waitress Came back, she began to cry as she wiped down the
Table. There, placed neatly beside the empty dish,
Were two nickels and five pennies..
You see, he couldn' t have the sundae, because he had
To have enough left to leave her a tip.
