Precious Possessions

Little Eddie called at the door of a trusted neighbor, holding a large sack

which contained, in his estimation, his most precious possessions – his marbles.

In a businesslike manner, he said: “I want you to keep these for me, Mrs. Jones,

until I call for them.â€

Mrs. Jones asked him why he didn't leave them at home.

The lad replied: “I heard mother say this morning that she was going to make

a marble cake for the School Mother’s Club, and I don’t want her to use any of

my marbles.
