Guess I'll take my arithmetic
along with me-" said Robert one
morning as he threw big fat worm
into a bucket which was already a
wriggly enough mass to delight the
heart of any nine-year-old boy. To
be exact, Robert was three-Quarters
past nine years old.
His mother was surprised but
glad to see him interested in his
school work ahead of time, for
school would not begin for two days
more. That's fine, Bobbie," she
said.
"Oh, nav, mother-it's nothin'.
Teacher said l might look at it and
p-raps study it some through the
summer"
Roberts mother smiled in sudden
understanding of Roberts studious
fit-the book had been stacked
away on a closet shelf all summer.
Then Robert started away, bucket
and pole in hand, and arithmetic
laid across the top of the bucket,
headed for his fathers ice pond
which had been we'll stocked with
fish. He called goodbye to his
mother again as he went through
the garden gate and then cut out
across the barnyard to take the
short path that led to the pond.
1t was late in the morning-quite
late, indeed-when Robert ex-
changed his fishing pole for the
little red arithmetic with it's red
suit all fringed around the edges
from hard wear, not due so much to
an over amount of study as to the
carrying back and forth and round
about, it had endured in the hands
of Robert who often took it home
from home, thinking he WOULD
study 1t.
Robert chose cool, shady spot
under a big maple tree, and fixed
himself up comfortably to study.
He opened his book, after giving
one more grin toward the small
fish squirming in the pail.
Then the strangest thing happen
ed to the book. 1t seemed to be
alive; the figures seemed to be
jumping all out of their places and
bounding around over the pages
like young kangaroos. They skipped
and lodged around the plus and
minus signs as if they were playing
tag, and where the multiplication
tables used to be, looked like some
kind of wild race was in progress.
The Is and rs ran right over the IS
and As, dashed past the 5s and
IS, and went rushing on, deter
mined to be at the end of things
this time, as the 12s were. instead
of always being at the first.
"Well, what under the sun is the
matter with you?" asked Robert,
not, of course, expecting any ans
wer. How startled then, he was to
hear voice behind him saying:
well, my goodness gracious, do
you not suppose other things be-
sides boys and girls want vaca-
tions? Those figures haven't had
chance to get out all summer, and
as for me, l feel like the old king
must have felt when he awoke from
his 100 years. sleep! Now, Pm going
to have a good time for two whole
days,-then, after that, work
again"
Long before this strange an
nouncement was completed, Robert
had turned around and sat staring
at his old geography book which
had suddenly become alive and was
asserting its rights.
"And me, tool" exclaimed the lit
tie brown English grammar, for
getting to be GramAatical, II amt
