At one Of the grade schools recently
mother who visited for half day
has great sympathy and appreciation
for teachers not heretofore felt. There
was one boy. who occupied seats in
various parts, OF the room according
to his particular sin at the moment
who outdid all youngsters she had ever
heard tell Of in originality Of schemes
for getting on the nerves OF every one
who came in contact with him. He
possessed the calm, innocent express
sion of baby during series of desk
squeaks which persisted in exact time
with the teachers voice. Whenever
she stopped talking the squeak stop
ped-when she began again. the squeak
began and yet every child in the room
bent earnestly and in a business like
manner lover his or her work. The
boy IN suspect was asked to change
his seat. He did so in injured inno-
cence. When again an explanation
was commenced-again came the
squeak.
Not only In squeaks hut in sudden
startling book dropping or rafting of
pencils was this boy proficient-and
yet to all intents he was entirely I'M

part. You couldn't catch him. II he

terror-he answered you with twin
lile in his eye-he knew os well as you
what you he'd been planning on. He
was as smart as he could be. There
wasn't a child in the room who could
outdo him nor child in the room who
could think up half the menaces he
could. He never studied. Or II he
did it was not where you could see
him-he carried with him a bland-oh

In every room something happened
