Worst Speller
Published Jan 01, 1900
Fourth-grader, Phillip, was an "A" student in arithmetic, but he was the worst speller in the class. The teacher had him at the blackboard one day, trying to teach him to spell. He was really having difficulty with a word when Jaquaida, one of his classmates blurted out, "Add an 'e', Phillip" Frustrated, Phillip said, "I'm not adding... I'm spelling."
