One or the Other.

One kid story leads on to another. A Cleveland school teacher—-one who has at several periods in the sweet-scent, ed past favored us with anecdotes about her pupils—sends us an account of a quiz conducted in her geography class only a day or two ago, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer. “In what zone do we live?” asked this teacher. “The temp’rut zone!” chanted the well-drilled class. “Right And what do we mean by ’temperate?’ Willie, you may answer.!’ “ ‘Temp’rut is were it’s freezin’ cold half the time an’ roastin’ hot the other half the time.” . If Willie wasn't sent to the head for that it wasn’t because he didn't deserve the honor.
