A priest was walking along the corridor of the parochial school near the
preschool wing when a group of little ones were trotting by on the way
to the cafeteria.
One little lad of about three or four stopped and
looked at him in his clerical clothes and asked, "Why do you dress
funny?"
He told him he was a priest and this is the uniform priests wear.
Then the boy pointed to the priest's plastic collar tab and asked,
"Do you have an owie?"
The priest was perplexed till he realized that to him the collar tab
looked like a band aid.
So the priest took it out and handed it to the
boy to show him.
On the back of the tab are raised letters giving the
name of the manufacturer.
The little guy felt the letters, and the priest asked, "Do you know
what those words say?"
"Yes I do," said the lad who was not old enough to read.
Peering
intently at the letters he said, "Kills ticks and fleas up to six
months!"
