At a recent International Football Match between Scotland and England, an Englishman had a bottle of whisky, while a Scotsman, who stood next to him, had none. The weather was hot and Sandy was dry.

"If ye were a sport ye'd pass the bottle," said the latter.

"There's only a mouthful left," replied the other.

"Ay!" agreed Sandy, "I see it's just a dribble. If ye were a player I'd say ye were a champion 'dribbler,' but ye're no good at 'passin'."

"Pass? No fear! Just you watch me 'shoot!'" And the Englishmen put the bottle to his mouth.

"Stop!" cried Sandy. "Ye should ken that it scores against ye to shoot into yer ain goal."

Sandy got his drink.
