Mr. Morgan is the techer whot teches the kids about hearts and circulation ' n ev- erything. Us kids here calls him the Bugo- ologie techer. This here techer has got a hard hart and a bald head. We thinks his heart is hard cause he is awful mean to the poor little kids what don ' t have time fur to study their lessons, and so they has to stay in the eighth period. Madammuzel Reeder is his first lieutenant about the eighth period dope. Yours till the moon comes up, Timothy. Dere Smanthy: Havin ' nothin ' better to do, I take tools in hand again to rite yew. I ' m sorri your paw is feelin ' worse and hope he ' s about the same now. Mr. Hogel, he ' s a funny fella. He teches fizicks — I ain ' t takin ' it tho Smanthy. But I guess he ' s a purty good techer. iHe ' s not much of a talker in public, but I ' ve heerd say that when he ' s in a class room with the door shut he can beat Patrick Henry when he comes to talkin ' (you know who Patrick was, Smanthy. ) I saw an old sooter of yur ' s yesterday, Smanthy. He ' s thet little bowlegged feller what they called Davis. He wuz runnin ' around after ' nuther fello who was dressed in a flour sack, and tellin ' him to get a little pepper. I couldn ' t understand what it all meant, and I don ' t ' spose yu do. I wisht you knew all these here techers Smanthy. They ' re a awful funnie bunch. T ' other day I wuz walkin ' along in the base- ment of this here Hi Skule and I heerd a commotion in the gim. I looked in and I seen Miss Smith (she ' s our swell gim teecher) runnin ' Misses Gardner and Kelly round and round. Then she sez, Halt! iRight face! Right dress! An ' then this here angle techer she says, this ' s my rite face, and Mrs. Gardner says, This is my rite dress. And Miss Smith she fell over on the floor moanin ' somethin ' about no brain, no brain. or somethin ' . It was kinda bewilderin, Smanthy. We have a Furniss up here tew, which is a high tone name fur a stove which heats a whole house at the same time, by hot air. When we buy our hous-keepin ' tools after I gradyate we won ' t by no Furniss, Smanthy. Miss Stewart, she ' s nuther one of what they call the fakulty. She teeches kids tew play the drum in Spanish and such like. She ' s got a purty good way of beatin ' the skule board (which is ' nt nothin ' like the board yew think I mean) out of some money. She makes all the pore kids pay a penny for every word they sey in English; which is a purty good way of grafting, ' She claims she ' s teeches ' em Spanish thataway, but they can ' t fool me, Smanthy. Well, I must clothes, and rite to a lot uf other girls, ' O reservoir (that what Madummuzelle Reeder says), Timothy. Pa e eighteen
