should be taken. in small doses.
In summer, they are constant-

mother's. n . es are tough, but
can be stretched only so far.
Even more grateful for our
educational System are the par-
ents of all those teenagers Who
didn't have "a job this summer.
Most of them, even those who
complain bitterly about high
education taxes, could kiss the
minister of education on both
cheeks. For, despite all the
wonderfulsy things to do in
summer, there ,is nothing more
