TeacherS and weekly editors
are good and useful people, and
have much in common, though
they often hate each others'
innards. Both try to inform,
educate and raise the standards
of society. But when it comes
to conventions, though I'll prob-
ably be healthier after the
teachers' affair ,I'll have a lot
more fun with the editors.
