Father Wouldn't Like It

A clergyman, walking down a country lane, sees a young
farmer struggling to load hay back onto a cart after it had
fallen off.

"You look hot, my son," said the cleric. "Why don't you rest
a moment, and I'll give you a hand."

"No thanks," said the young man. "My father wouldn't like
it."

"Don't be silly," the minister said. "Everyone is entitled
to a break. Come and have a drink of water."

Again the young man protested that his father would be
upset. Losing his patience, the clergyman said, "Your
father must be a real slave driver. Tell me where I can find
him and I'll give him a piece of my mind!"

"Well," replied the young farmer, "he's under the load of
hay."
