An elderly man put a dime on the Salvation Army drum, then asked the girl in charge:

"What do you do with this money?"

"Give it to the Lord."

"How old are you, young lady?"

"Nineteen."

"I'm eighty-seven," said the man as he recovered his dime from the drum. "You don't need to bother; I'll more likely see the Lord before you do."
