"To get acquainted with the new children," she said, "I go around the classroom and ask them to recite their names." "What's your name?" I asked one little boy. "Freddie." was the reply. "You mean Frederick," I aaid, "We use only our proper names in class." So when I asked the next little boy what his name was, be stood up proudly and answered, "Boberick, ma'am!" Front where I ait, Bobby re mind me of folks who think what's rlfht for one mnat be rlfhl for another. For Instance, my neighbor used to scoff at my bavins; a food class of beer with supper. He believed that only coffee wss proper. Truth Is, a mealtime beversce, like most ether thbirs. Is purely s matter of personal preference. When we can respect the other fellow's opinion as well as our own, we'll have passed the first "leason" In lolrranee. Copyright, lvt0. United Statei Urrnert kounttaltan day to day!
