One of the things f like about
teaching is that you are not stUek
with the same old stupid faces
year after year, as you are is
most jobs.
In teaching, you get a ;owns et
of new stupifaces every` myear.
They come in .every ,SS. ►t-
ber, an entitle new gamey of
mugs, and sit there looking at
you. They look pretty dumb, like
any other representative group of
people, and you have 'a moment
of despair.

It doesn't help much when
some of the faces are closed and
sullen, and others are sneaky or
insolent%or just plain devised for
hellery.
"Oh, boy! This is no bumper
crop. More bumptious than
bumper. Looks like a rough year
ahead."
But some strange alchemy
goes to work during the year, and
by June, if you're lucky, those
faces are no longer strangers, but
a host of new friends and
acquaintances.
You have discovered all kinds
of things, in the give and take of
the classroom, about these
bodies, and now you know ,them
as aspects of the human spirit,
however blurred ortent, in some
cases.
That girl with the big bust and
bum and the pouty mouth, and
whom you registered as a Hot -
Lips Houlihan type back in Sep-
tember, has turned out to be a .
sweet child who blushes if. you -
ask her what time it is.
Conversely, that angelic,

straight -looking girl with the big
honest eyes and the good
manners, whom you spotted as a
potential prize student )Cast fall,
was 'hauled into cow last winer
for being drunk and disorderly, a
nice way of saying she beat up
two cops.
That little ratty guy with the
dirty hair and the sides falling out
of his sneakers, who looked like a
refugee from a Dickensian
orphanage, has proved himself a
track star and a whiz in grail
mar.
Mouthy Mary, whose vocabu-
lary would scorch the skull of a
sailor, writes tender, lyric poe-
try.
Jeff, whom you put down as a
hockey bum in January, who
missed three days a week from
exhaustion, has emerged, since
the ice melted, as one of the most
sensitive writers - you've ever
taught.
Alan, the belligerent guy you
tangled with on the first day of
school, and the second, and the
fourth, and the. eighth, a real
hood, has come out of his surly
cocoon as a football - player, a
pretty fair artist, and the best
mower of lawns you have hired in
years. You are buddies.
Cynthia, one of the few familiar
faces last September, because
you had taught her, the year
before, hasn't changed at all.
She's just as sweet and lovable
and full of fun as always, and you
think of her almost as a daughter.
And Joe, the other familiar
face last September, because you
had also taught him the year
before, hasn't changed a bit
either. He's just as slippery, con-
niving, lazy and genial as always,
and while you might despair of
him, you've grown to accept him,
as you would a member of your
family with the same faults. -
It's the same every year. You
start out with caterpillars, and if
you are patient and tolerant and
allow people to find their way out
of their cocoons, you wind up With
..butterflies, some gray and dull,
others brilliant and many hued,
but all of them fluttering -with
life. ,
And you keep track , of your
butterflies, ' as ` best you can.
Here's a doctor who didn't know a
dangling participle from a. rup-
tured appendix when you were
trying to teach him Shakespeare,
10 years ago. A `
•
And there's a university pro-
fessor, one of the swift, eager
minds you touched on her way
through the system.
John has become an artist, and
is going to marry Trish, and you
think it's a great match and hope
thebest for them, because you
knew them away back then, when
they were kids.
And another John and a Bill are
journalists, and Betty is a fine
nurse, and Florence is going to be
a lawyer, and Mike takes off your
storm windows and Betty works
in the travel agency and gives
you the best of service and Pete is
going to take you fishing to a
special trout stream as soon as
school is out and Rosemary has
had four babies, every one a
beauty.
It's like pulling teeth to make
them admit it, but most teachers
become pretty fond of most of
their students over the course of a
year. A few of them, of course,
only a mother could love.
I can think of no fate more hor-
rible than being a teacher who
doesn't like kids, and no better
life than for one who does.
Lifeguards warn
against riptides
Riptides account for many"
lifeguard surf rescues and
cause nearly 80 per cent of all
near drownings, they report.
A riptide is a current of
water running from shallow
waters near shore out to sea.
it can carry a person out to
sea past the breaker lines at a
rate as high as 10 miles an
hour.
These tornadoes
are "super"
Deadliest of all tornadoes is
the "super" or "long `track"
tornado, which can measure
one to one -and -a -half miles
wide.
It accounts for two per cent
of all tornadoes.
Almanacs have
ancient history
Almanacs have been found
on pyramids as far back as
1700 B.C., English ones date
back to 1495.
An American edition in 1639
was the second document off
the New World's printing
press at Cambridge, Mass.
You Are The Detective
"My name is Jen), Howard," says
the voice on the phone. "My friend,
George Andrews ... -there's been a
horrible accident at his home, 715
Locust Drive ... he's dead!"
Twenty minutes later you are
looking at the body lying. on the
blacktop driveway of the suburban
home in front of the sport car which
has its hood standing open. Over
Andrews' right temple is an ugly,
\bloody wound.
You step around the pool of spill-
ed oil on the blacktop surface in
order to examine the victim more
closely. You note bis immaculate
clothing — the powder blue sport
coat, expensive looking maroon tie,
the spotless pastel blue shirt, light
gray slacks, and the tan, well -
polished shoes — even the soles are
spotless. -
Jerry Howard speaks up. "1
hadn't seen George for at least two
months, since just before. he was
married. I might has well tell you
this now, since you're sure to find it
out eventually. The girl he married
was formerly engaged to me. There
was some bad feeling between Geo-
rge and me when she and l split up
and he moved in — but it all got
smoothed over in time."
"Suppose you tell me how this
happened today," you prompt him.
"1 had a sudden impulse to drop
in on George this afternoon, just to
let him know I was still his friend
and wasn't nursing any old grudges.
When 1 got here, he was.working on
'his car = he had the hood up like
you see it there, and he was leaning
over the fender making some kind of
adjustment on the engine. When I
came up behind him and spoke to
him, it must have really startled him,
He dropped what he was doing un-
der the hood, whirled around, acci-
dentally stepped into oil on the
driveway, slipped, and hit his head
on the edge of the car's radiator. It
made a sickening sound — his head.
hitting on the car that way — and
this combined with the fact that he
had a weak heart, must have done it.
I ran into his house to phone you as
soon as l got over the shock. Betty
—.his wife — is away- — she works.
1 wonder how she'll feel when she
'hears the story!"
"Story is right!" you say. "Now

WORDS OFTEN MISUSED
Do not say, "if you would have
listened more closely, you would
have understood." Say, "If you
HAD listened more closely."
Do not say, "Everyone of us
enjoyed ourself at the party." Say,
"Everyone of us enjoyed HIMSELF
at the arty."
Mold the expression, "He let
loose of the rope." Much better to
say, "HE RELEASED the rope."
Do not say, "You hadn't ought
