A clever mother
Watching the film Gone With the Wind was so enjoyable
that the young couple almost forgot the existence of their
child. About half way through the movie their son woke up. The
couple was in dilemma. On one hand, it was a pity to give up
enjoying the end of the movie; on the other, if they stayed,
the little guy would probably start crying. Seeing the usher
standing by a door, the mother was seized by a sudden impulse.
She asked his husband to call the usher over to them. The
usher, whose uniform consisted of a blue hat and a black suit
with white stripes, followed their advice. The child smiled
constantly and the couple was able to enjoy the rest of the
movie.At home, despite giving the matter much thought, the
husband was still quite perplexed by his wife’s behavior. “Why
did you demand that the usher stand near us?” She laughed, “If
my memory is right, our son liked zebras very much when we
went to the zoo last time. Do you think that he can
distinguish between an usher and a zebra?”
