CAN I HELP YOU?

As the new minister in town was walking down the street, he saw a little boy straining every muscle to reach the door-bell. He realized the little guy would never make it, although he admired the kid s tenacity. So he walked up on the porch to help.

( Here buddy, need some help?) He lifted the tyke who rang the bell.

As he set the child down, the kid took off running and called back over his shoulder, ( run mister! Here come the lady!)
