| Little Johnny came to Montreal from his home in Labrador, where he had never seen a colored person. One day when he was out walking with his Uncle Tom they happened to pass a colored woman, and the little fellow asked, "Say, uncle, why did that woman black her face?" "Why, she hasn't blacked her face. That is her natural color," replied the uncle. "Is she black like that all over?" asked Johnny. "Why, yes." "Gosh, uncle, you know everything, don't you?" |
