MORNING EXERCISE

FINALLY, IN THE THIRD GRADE, OUR TEACHER MISS CANSINO, who was something of a psychic herself, had all the third graders write down a secret word on an index card at the beginning of the last day of class. At the end of the day she had each student read his or her secret word. Eighteen of Miss Cansino’s twenty-two students had the same word written down. The other four were; window, baseball, transfusion and flabbergasted.
