Hori's Perplexity
Hori's Perplexity.
A Maori, watching the winding of the station clock, was told that it was an “eight-day clock.”
“What that?” says Hori.
“Oh.” says the stationmaster, “it goes eight days without winding.”
“Py gorry, that the fine clock, eh! Eight days without winding,” says Hori; “how long he go if you do wind him?”
