Sikh joke

CHRISTOPHER HOLLIS

All busmen's hats must have a peak To show the citizens they're urban. What of a country-loving Sikh Who wears on principle a turban?

Religious whimsies such as that

Are not allowed by regulation: A busman and without a hat—

Too much for our administration.

When personnel conduct a bus.

Heads must have hats quite firmly clamped on.

The byelaws clearly state it thus.

That's good enough for Wolverhampton.
