“ Let’s skip it !” said Stuart. The children were happy to skip Arithmetic.

“What is the next subject?” asked Stuart.

“Spelling,” said the children. “Of course, you must spell correctly .

Buy a Webster’s Dictionary* and check your spelling.”

The children were happy to skip spelling too.

“What is next?” “Drawing,” answered the children. “You don’t know how to draw ?” asked Stuart.

“Of course, we do!” said the children. “History comes next,” said a girl. “History? I don’t like this subject.

Let’s talk about more interesting things.”

“Let’s talk about snakes,” said Arthur Green. “I don’t like snakes,” said Stuart.

“Can we talk about the circus?” said Harry James.
