Willie, will you give me a sentence with the word ‘taught” la A fair-haired urchin on the front seal spoke up promptly: “I t’ought it was time for school t« let out'” “No, no! Mamie, you may give m, fl I l i example,” she said, turning to a bright girl farther back. “I t’ought it was time to go home,” answered Mamie, with an air as If slit had done exactly the right thing. And though she tried several timei more, no other form of the word than the variation “t’ought” could the teach er out of her school.
