"When I was at the party,” Said Betty taged just four), “A little girl fell off her chair Right down upon the floor. And all the other little girls Began to laugh, but me— I didn't laugh a single bit,” Said Betty, seriously. "Why not?" her mother asked her, Full of delight to find That Betty—bless her little heart Had been so sweetly kind . "Why didn’t you laugh, darling? Or don’t you like to tell?” "I didn't laugh,” said Betty, "’Cos it was me that fell!” Teacher: “Your essay on “Our Dog" is word for word the same as your brother’s.” Small boy: "Well, sir, it's the sam« dog.”
