A Barnegat schoolma'am had been telling her pupils something about George Washington, and finally she asked:
"Can any one now tell me which Washington was - a great general or a great admiral?"
The small son of a fisherman raised his hand, and she signaled him to speak.
"He was a great general," said the boy. "I seen a picture of him crossing the Delaware, and no great admiral would put out from shore standing up in a skiff."
