"Grammar"
Johnny's Teacher paid a visit to his house one
day. When little Johnny opened the door, she a
sked, "Are your father and mother in, Mr. Morton?"
"They was in, but they is out now." he answered.
The teacher gasped, "Why, Mr. Johnny Morton,
it is 'They were in, they are out now.' Where's
your grammar?"
"She's upstairs taking her nap."

"Unusual"
The class assignment in composition was to
write about something unusual that happened
during the past week. Little Ben got up to read
his. "Papa fell in the well last week - " he began.
"Good heavens," shrieked Mrs. Krup, the teacher.
"Is he all right now?"
"He must be," said little Ben. "He stopped yelling
for help yesterday."
