You can see why I warned you about it. Just wanted to remind you. An another thing: I don't wanta make the lot of the school teachers no more burdensome than It already is. My yoisigans? Well, one has already left home ( but 1 don't think it was on account of this), the middle one is old enoigh ?o know bettem to read In this corner, and the Utdestone? she's Just in the fourth gratfc, so I don't have id worry about I"1" yet awhile. She don't care what happens in this corner. An it's i good thing, too, cguse if I's to ketch her a tryln to "ad this I'd thrash her. An goodll If I's you I bleave I'd Just ban this kinds readln for my youngans. You see, what I'm tryln to do Is get this thing banned, you know, like they done In Boston with "Forever Amber" and "Peyton Place." An If I can just get THAT done. I'll feel like I m on my way. Don't ask me where to. You probab ly have a place in mind, but that wasn't where I's think ing about being "on the way id." Sure nuff, I's thinking about all the headaches teachers has ffyln to learn youngans some English. It's a sight. I can remember having some little bit o trouble tryln to grasp onto It myself. Coarse. It never bothered me too bad, not nearly as much as ever one of my teachers seemed to be a tryln to learn it to me. If 1 wasn t worried noneaboutlt. I couldn't see how come they oughta get so upset on my account. But ever one of "em did. ' 8 sorry for 'em. They's one that I's the sorriest for of all I know she musta dreaded me die worst of any pupil she Pad?-maybe ot any she EVER had. Well, now, you may not bleave that I was so sorry for her, but I was. Why I's so sorry for her that many . time I'd get to feelin so bad -?you know, concerned for her an all ... that by dinner time I d hafta go home sick, an couldn't even go to her class which come rite after dinner. I found out that my being absent made her feel better, and that was good news to me cause nothing was too good for my ssachers. Ma got kind* inquisitive a time or two about me gettln home ao early, an I seen pretty quick I'd halta adjust my ttmln ? little better. Thla wasn't no problem to me, as they was several things on my way home that could use up a lot of a fellers time. For one thing, they was a grist mill rite on the way to my house where the meal was water ground. That was the best kind. Pa always took ours there, and me and Mr. Gamer was good frtenda. He'd let me help him out If he's In a tight, which he almost always was when I'd come by. If things got kinds slack after I *fre we'd just set an talk. Or maybe fish in the mUl pond an talk at the same time. I listened mostly. He done the kinds talking that*d make boys like me proud to listen. An if the bream were Wtln' pretty good to boot, well, you can easily see how come a boy*d be liable to sicken ig>. with things like this a runnln loose in his head, an all this coined with myfeelln so sorry for my English teach er was enough to make any body sick all over. The walk in the fresh air as far as Garner's Grist MUl usually got me over the worst of my sick spells. This arrangement worked out the best you ever saw al ?n* ?be ole principal was ridln' out the road towards my house an he seen me an (I never seen him In time or he never woulda) stopped an asked a lot of silly quest ions. I never had enough ready answers being surprised up on like he done me. The next day he sent me word EARLY that he wanted to see me rite after dinner I sure nuff was sick by the dme 1 had to go to his office. He never said nothing much. He just walked along with me to English Class. "Hiat English teacher, she told me I'd hafta write a 10 page theme and hand it in to her by day after tomorrow. Which I did, in fact, I had it ready the next day, but I waited to turn It in all she called for it. Writin wasn't no reel problum for me. When I went back to class the next day, she sent me di rectly to that ole principal's office. An i went Scared to death. I already knew how com? she sent me, I thought, an I was right. When I walked in 1 could iL wasn't in no mood to talk to me. He was holdin my Theme" In his hand an a laughin an he told me to shut the door which I did. He done Us best to fuss si me about ny theme, but he just couldn't teem id get down id business. You see, I had left nut ever gtt of the punctuation, and at he end of it I wrote down a whole bunch of c?mat. per tods, question n.?,kf, ex clamation points, an things like that an wrote the teecher a little note an told her there was a lotta them things and she could just put 'em where ever they'd suit her the best, that 1 was pretty sure she knew more about where they be longed than I did. Well, the principal all be ever did get laid to me waa something like: "Boy you won't never make no ptaKt uator." An he was right. 1 dldn'tll OBITUARIES MKb.
