THERE ALL THE TIME.
Reading edition
It is told of Dr. Thorold that he was once asked to give away the prizes at a school belonging to the London School Board.
In the course of his opening address, he gravely asked the children, 'Which was the largest island in the world, before Australia was discovered?'
When the youngsters gave it up, he told them, in the same grave way, which made them laugh all the more, 'Why, Australia, of course; it was there all the time!'
