​ALIBI A party of Manila army women were returning in an auto from a suburban excursion when the driver unfortunately collided with another vehicle. While a policeman was taking down the names of those concerned an "English-speaking" Filipino law-student politely asked one of the ladies how the accident had happened. "I'm sure I don't know," she replied; "I was asleep when it occurred." Proud of his knowledge of the Anglo-Saxon tongue, the youth replied: "Ah, madam, then you will be able to prove a lullaby." @one_story
