Spelling Bee
Published Jan 01, 1900
A teacher is giving a spelling bee. She asks little John to spell the word "before"
"Um... Before: b-e-e-f-o-r" he replies erroneously. The teacher then calls on Suzy.
"Before: b-e-p-h-o-r". Again, she is wrong, and the teacher calls on little Leroy.
"Before: b-e-f-o-r-e." gloats the little boy.
"Very good, Leroy! Can you use the word in a sentence?"
"Yeah. Before: Two and two be fore."
