The parishioners in a village decided to honor the fiftieth year
in the priesthood of their pastor. Times were bad, and cash was
scarce, so they decided that each person would bring a gallon of
wine and put it into the pastor''s wine barrel.

After Mass on the appointed Sunday a delegation of parishioners
called on the father and told him what they had done. The old man
was delighted and insisted that they all come to the wine barrel
and drink a glass in honor of the occasion.

But it was found to be water. Each thrifty parishioner, think-
ing that no one else would have the same idea, had brought a gallon
of water instead of the promised gallon of wine.
