"Big Swindle"

A newsboy was standing on the corner with a stack
of papers, yelling, "Read all about it. Fifty people
swindled! Fifty people swindled!"

Curious, a man walked over, bought a paper, and
checked the front page. What he saw was yesterday's
paper.

The man said, "Hey, this is an old paper, where's
the story about the big swindle?"

The newsboy ignored him and went on calling out,
"Read all about it. Fifty-one people swindled!"
