This destitute little girl and her pregnant mother lived in the housing project. One day the little girl was skipping home from school when she finds a dollar bill on the side walk. Elated, she snatches up the dollar and runs home to show it to Mom. Mom was very delighted to see the dollar because they had NO food in the house. "I knew we would be provided for!" said Mom. "I am so hungry and I have been craving fried eggs smothered in catsup!" "Darlin', I want you to hurry to the store, get a small bottle of catsup and buy eggs with the change. That nice manager knows how poor we are. He will open a carton and sell us what we can afford."

The girl runs as fast as she can up to the store, buys a bottle of catsup and has money left for two eggs. She grabs the goods, dashes out the door and down the side walk. Naturally, she trips and everything breaks. She cries frantically. "Mom will be so disappointed." A kind stranger happens along and surveys the situation. Wanting to offer condolences, he says; "Don't take it so hard, sweetheart. It would not have lived anyway because it's eyes are too far apart."
