A squad car driver was covering a quiet beat out in the sticks when he was amazed to find a former lieutenant on the police force covering the beat. He stopped the car and asked, " Why, Irish Mike, this wouldn't be your new beat out here in the sticks, would it? " " That it is, " Irish Mike replied grimly, " ever since I arrested the judge on his way to the masquerade ball. " " You mean you pinched his honor? " asked Pat. " How was I to know that his convict suit was only a costume? " demanded Mike. " Well, " mused Pat, " there's a lesson in this somewhere. " " That there is, " replied Irish Mike…. " 'Tis wise never to book a judge by his cover. "
