- (continued from previous page)What goes round the wood and round the wood and never gets into the wood.
The bark of a tree. White and black and read all over.
The newspaper. Headed like a thimble, tailed like a rat you may guess for ever, but you would not guess that.
A pipe. If you saw a car, and if there were two black men and a white man in it and if the two black men ate the white man what was the number of the car.
Two-ate-one 281.
