     Mr Jones and Mr Brown worked in the same office. One day Mr Jones said to Mr Brown,
"I am going to have a small party at my home next Wednesday evening. Would you and your
wife like to join us?"
     Mr Brown said, "Thank you very much. It is very kind of you. We will be free that evening,
I think. But I will t.elephone my wife and ask her. Maybe she wants to go somewhere else that
evening." So Mr Brown went to the other room and telephoned.
     When he came back, he looked very sorry.
     "What is the matter?" said Mr Jones. "Did you speak to your wife?"
     "No," answered Mr Brown, "She wasn't there. My small son answered the telephone. I said
to him, 'Is your mother there, David?' And he answered, 'No, she is not in the house,' 'Where
is she  then?' I asked. ' She is somewhere outside.' 'What is she doing?'  'She is looking for me.'"
