The Thoughtful Batman
The Thoughtful Batman.
Officer (of territorials in camp): Didn't I tell you to wake me at six? And now it is half-past.
Batman: Beg pardon, captain; when I came to your tent at six o'clock to wake you up, you called out in your sleep “Waiter, another bottle of champagne!” So I thought what a pity it would be to wake you up before you had finished the bottle.
