`` About Anne 's fuss in school , I reckon , '' she said . `` Tillie Boulter was in on her way home from school and told me about it . '' `` I do n't know what to do with her , '' said Marilla . `` She declares she wo n't go back to school . I never saw a child so worked up . I 've been expecting trouble ever since she started to school . I knew things were going too smooth to last . She 's so high strung . What would you advise , Rachel ? '' `` Well , since you 've asked my advice , Marilla , '' said Mrs. Lynde amiably -- Mrs. Lynde dearly loved to be asked for advice -- `` I 'd just humor her a little at first , that 's what I 'd do . It 's my belief that Mr. Phillips was in the wrong . Of course , it does n't do to say so to the children , you know . And of course he did right to punish her yesterday for giving way to temper . But today it was different . The others who were late should have been punished as well as Anne , that 's what . And I do n't believe in making the girls sit with the boys for punishment . It is n't modest . Tillie Boulter was real indignant . She took Anne 's part right through and said all the scholars did too . Anne seems real popular among them , somehow .
I never thought she 'd take XXXXX them so well . ''
