why it seemed the highest imaginable
achievement.
"This highest class, few in number.
like the long words in the book, would
be ranged in a row in front of the seatx,
between the seats and the teacher's
platfornf, upon which tint the trustees.
The spelling was the culminating("ti+of the
exercises, and the whole sch0o7,ws9 in-
terested, and everyone was auxions that
tho class should acquit itself creditably,
and the younger pupils like myself be-
lieved that the trustees mast be greatly
impressed.

teacher, standing book in hand at out-
end
neend of the platform, to the head of we
class, who mpeats the word and proceeds
to a .. 11 it:

gives out rine of tine lung words to a
timid, shy, little chap who'is fairly over-
cotueby presence of the trustees and
the geuoral solemnity rad high tension
of fhe whole occasion. He flounders
and flounders c7Pr it hopelessly, with a
faint and shrini,'.ng voice, The teacher
repeats the word, enunciating the syl-
lctbles separately, with un almost painful
distinctness, to impress them upon the
little chap's mind, but lie only flounder,,
the more. One of the trustees looks
stern, the other two look kind and sym-
pathetic, and presently the stern roan
comes around, too, bill: tate yonngster

gives the word to the next boy. That
boy does not realize at all the timid ter -
rot, of tht, boy who has just falls,]: lie
isn't that kind of a boy, and he rattles
the word off boldly and glibly. And so
it goes round and round till the words
of the lesson are all given out.
"From 1 tom first to last. half a dozen or
more words are bungled by one boy and
another, but still the school feels that
the class has done very well, and An for
me, being n smn11 boy and only as far as
the two-syll,lbled words, I go home to tell
my folks of the wonderful deeds per-
formed that day by So-and-so or.. our
school in the spelling examination, and
of the particularly tremendous feat of
Wiggles, the smallest boy ill the class,
who never missed u word."
