next your miserable little scribe wine

okay good morning daddy

hello Tony I I didn't expect to see you

again so soon could we be alone yes of

course

run along Tony go and find mrs. Smith I

shall want to see you later.

Oh keep it okie-doke as you see I

brought it back I can do no more yeah

no you're not serious dr. Blakeley and

not merely serious dr. Fleming but

desperate in extremis admittedly your

son is a problem child but he'd be my

problem no longer this is a very sudden

decision doctor I have toys on Yingli

with the idea for many weeks doctor

yesterday's disaster merely brought

matters to a head master disaster

it occurred about hour after his return

from his half term holiday at 7:15

precisely after his cocoa on the art

mistresses study dog what about her

study door he drew on it - on it

that is what I said he has a diabolical

habit of placing on Victoria record

everything which attracts his attention

that's not a door not a war at the

school which is escaped him surely

you're exaggerating doctor I pick up out.

Tony's powers of observation are highly

developed he's rather above average

above average he has not the slightest

idea of discipline he seems to be under

the impression that he's a law unto

himself individualist yes sir and sadly

out of place at my school I've tolerated

it too long

yesterday decided the matter that's

drawing drawing drawing of what

oh you mean don't you it was a buffoon

eesh caricature of Mesa and the whole

school was laughing at it I I seem to

remember doing much the same thing

myself at his age

good day dr. Fleming well it's a poor

schoolmaster who can't direct the

natural chalice of one small boy suppose

you have a try dr. Blechley has gone I

don't think we shall need these in any

case you know don't you that y'all never

be able to go back to that school again

oh goody thanks dad

I shouldn't be too pleased if I were you

I was never sent away from my school

when you were young they didn't very

good schools too there they taught the

boys the things that mattered like

geography and history and the riffle

taking your spelling very well for why

of your age they also taught them how to

behave and obey and if they were naughty

do you know what happened they had the

king yes mummy told me he said that's

why all the boys a wink those old

schools were not so stupid

I see what do you expect to be when you

grow up not an artist I'd like to think

you were going to be a doctor or a

lawyer or do the members of those

professions fight you as being too

stupid no dad not stupid only fearfully

don't I think you'd better leave the

room before I forget a promise I once

made to your mother you don't by the way
