LUCKY JOHNNY The bell for classes rings, and poor Johnny, shaking in his shoes, creeps like a snail to class. A word from the teacher brings the class to order and the recitation starts. The sweat begins to gather on Johnnyis forehead. As the teacher prepares to ask the first question, Johnny squirms in his chair. The teacher looks at him and commences to speak. Then another pupil raises his hand, and for the moment the teacherls attention is directed to him. Having satisfied this pupilis demands, the teacher once more proceeds with her questioning when she is interrupted by the tele- phone. Johnny hopes-oh, how he hopes that the call may be for him, but no, it is for one of the girls who always has her lesson done. Some folks do have all the luck! In the meantime a few of the pupils have started to whisper in low tones. The teacher restores order with a sharp '4Quietl,7 At this command, Johnny, from sheer nervousness, jumps as if a firecracker had exploded under him. The teacher resumes her interrupted questioning once more. She glances about the room as if looking for someone to call upon. Her eyes rest on Johnny. He holds his breath, resolving that if he escapes this time, he will never get himself into such a predica- ment again. A moment her glance wavers, and then falls on the pupil behind Johnny. To his unutterable relief he is saved once more. He throws a hasty glance at the clock. Will the gods who look out for the unfortunate save him? Out of the cor- ner of his eye, he looks at the teacher. She fingers the pages of her book, seemingly trying to think of a last question. Then it happens. She calls on Johnny. His face gets red, his throat becomes dry, his hands shake. Then miracle of miracles, the bell! Johnny gasps. Is it possible that he is saved? Apparently he is, for the teacher, seemingly as much relieved as Johnny, dismisses the class, and Johnny weakly stumbles out of the room with the firm decision that never again will he make himself suffer such torture.
