The first joke you ever heard?

People are always grunting on here about the jokes being old - well of
course they are, all jokes are old. But do you remember the first joke
you ever heard? I've been thinking and beaming back to the end of WW2
(thank you Scotty) I think mine was:

Infant school teacher is taking prayers in class (Hands together, eyes
closed - you remember). When everyone opens their eyes they see a
yellow puddle in the middle of the floor.

The teacher decides to handle this in a tactful way and says to the
children, " Right now we are not going to punish anybody for this.
What we will do is to all close our eyes again and the person
responsible can get a floor cloth and clear up the puddle."

So everybody closes their eyes again and they hear little footsteps
going to the sink and then to the middle of the floor and a squeaking
noise and the footsteps returning.

Thinking the problem has been resolved the teacher tells the children
to open their eyes.
Alas the puddle is still there with another one next to it and on the
floor in chalk is a message: "The phantom piddler strikes again!"


OK, so what was yours?
