There are twelve boys and girls in the first grade and fifteen in the second grouped together to learn the first corner-stones of the 'cthree R,s,'.

One little lass has just discovered that Mervin Duncan,s name is not Mervin Dumplint. When one of the little girls in the first grade is asked to do something new she invariably replies, But Auntie never showed me how' to do thatv.
