An elderly lady from a little town

An elderly lady from a remote little town went to one of Philadelphia’s most fashionable suburbs to visit her niece and husband.

Nearby was a very well known golf course.

On the second afternoon of her visit, the elderly lady went for a stroll.

Upon her return, the young niece asked,“Well, Auntie, did you enjoy yourself?”

“Oh, yes, indeed,” said Auntie, beaming. “Before I had walked very far,

she continued, “I came to some beautiful rolling fields. There seemed to be a number of people about, mostly men.

Some of them kept shouting at me in a very eccentric manner, but I took no notice.

There were four men who followed me for some time, uttering curious excited barking sounds. Naturally, I ignored them, too.”

“Oh, by the way,” she added, as she held out her hands,

“I found a number of these curious little round white balls, so I picked them all up and brought them home hoping you could explain what they’re for.”
