Old Red Indian Custom

Two Red Indians and an Irishman were walking through the woods.

Suddenly, one of the Red Indians ran up a hill to the mouth of a small cave.

"Wooooo! Wooooo! Wooooo!" he called into the cave and listened closely until he heard a reply, "Wooooo! Wooooo! Wooooo!" Then he tore off his clothes and ran into the cave.

The puzzled Irishman asked the remaining Indian, "Is he crazy?"

The Indian replied, "No, it's our custom during the mating season when Indian man see cave, they holler 'Wooooo! Wooooo! Wooooo!' into the opening. If they get an answer back, it means there's a beautiful squaw in there waiting for us."

Just then, they came upon another cave. The second Indian ran up to the cave and hollered, "Wooooo! Wooooo! Wooooo!" Immediately, there was an answer, "Wooooo! Wooooo! Wooooo!" from deep inside. He also tore off his clothes and ran into the opening.

The Irishman wandered around the woods alone for a while, and then spied a third very large cave.

As he looked in amazement at the size of the huge opening, he thought to himself, "Look at the size of this cave! It's way bigger than the Indians found. There may be a really big, fine women in this cave!"

He stood in front of the opening and hollered with all his might, "Wooooo! Wooooo! Wooooo!"

Like the others, he heard an answering call, "WOOOOOOOO, WOOOOOOOO, WOOOOOOOO!"

With a gleam in his eye, he raced into the cave, tearing off his clothes as he ran.

The following day, the headlines of a local newspaper read.....
