Family Joke(45)
A very intelligent boy was fortunate enough to be receiving a far better education than his parents had enjoyed，and his vocabulary far outstripped theirs. One day he came home from school and said“Mommy，may I relate to you a narrative？”
“What‘s a narrative，Gerald？”she asked.“A narrative，Mommy，is a tale.”
“Oh，I see，”said his mother nodding，and Gerald told her his story. At bedtime as he was about to go upstairs he said，“Shall I extinguish the light Mommy？”
“What‘s extinguish？”she asked.“Extinguish means to put out，Mommy，”said brainy Gerald“Oh，I see. Yes，certainly.”
The next day the clergyman came to tea and the family dog began to make a nuisance of himself，as a dog will，by begging for goodies from the table.“Gerald，”said his mother，trying to impress，“take that dog by the narrative and extinguish him！”
