“Not Catchin’.”
A country School teacher is
many limes the recipient of some
extremely amusing questions and
(replies from the pupils under
her.
Preceding the following inci
dent, a diphtheria epidemic had
been raging in a certain young
lady’s district, and although the
authorities had succeeded in get
ting it under control, they wen
still somewhat strict concerning
illness in the neighborhood.
One of the rules laid down was
that no. pupil was to attend
school, until after an examina
tion had been made, if any one
of the immediate family wen
taken ill.
However, one morning a lil
tle girl approached the young
woman with the following:
“My ma -she's sick this morn
in’, but she said I was to go to
School jest the same.”
“Why, you know you should
n’t have come,” said the teacher,
“until the doctor had reported
the matter, so 1 shall have to
send you home.”
“Well,” the child replied, “it’s
jest a new baby up to our house,
anyway, and ma said she thought
it wasn’t catchin’.”
It is needless to say that the
child stayed.
