They looked at one another,\u003cbr\u003eall with beaming faces, partly because the sun made them appear so, and\u003cbr\u003epartly for joy; for when the sunshine came through the last window, then\u003cbr\u003ethe moment approached that the closing word would be spoken, and the\u003cbr\u003echildren could rush out into the evening sunshine. The teacher was still\u003cbr\u003ebusy with the illuminated heads of the second class, and indeed with\u003cbr\u003esome zeal, for several sentences had still to be completed, before the\u003cbr\u003eschool could be closed. The teacher was standing before a boy who looked\u003cbr\u003ewell-fed and quite comfortable, and who was looking up into the\u003cbr\u003eteacher's face with eyes as round as two little balls.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Well, Ritz, hurry, you surely must have thought of something by now.\u003cbr\u003eNow then! What can be made useful in a household? Do not forget to\u003cbr\u003emention the three indispensable qualities of the object.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRitz, the youngest son of the minister, was usually busy thinking of\u003cbr\u003ethat which had just happened to him. So just now it had come to his\u003cbr\u003emind, how this very morning Auntie had arrived. She was an older sister\u003cbr\u003eof his mother and had no home of her own; but made a home with her\u003cbr\u003erelatives. She was a frequent visitor at the parsonage for months at a\u003cbr\u003etime and would help the mother in governing the household. Ritz\u003cbr\u003eremembered especially, that Auntie was particularly inclined to have the\u003cbr\u003echildren go to bed in good time--and they had to go--and he also\u003cbr\u003eremembered that they could not get the extra ten minutes from Mother,\u003cbr\u003efor Auntie was always against begging Mother. In fact, Auntie talked so\u003cbr\u003emuch about going to bed, that Ritz felt the feared command of retiring\u003cbr\u003eduring the whole day. So his thoughts were occupied with these\u003cbr\u003eexperiences, and he said after some thinking: \"One can make use of an\u003cbr\u003eaunt in a household. She must--she must--she must--\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Well, what must she? That will be something different from a quality,\"\u003cbr\u003ethe teacher interrupted the laborious speech of the boy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"She must not always be reminding that it is time to go to bed,\" it now\u003cbr\u003ecame out.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Ritz,\" the teacher said now in a severe tone, \"is the school the place\u003cbr\u003eto joke?\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut Ritz looked at the teacher with such unmistakable fright and\u003cbr\u003eastonishment, that the latter saw that it was an honest opinion which\u003cbr\u003eRitz had made use of in his sentence. He therefore changed his mind and\u003cbr\u003esaid more gently: \"Your sentence is unfitting and incorrect, for your\u003cbr\u003ethree qualities are not there. Do you understand that, Ritz? You will\u003cbr\u003ehave to make three sentences at home, all alike; but do not forget the\u003cbr\u003edifferent qualities. Have you understood me?\"","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47070107009264,"sku":"2940013519626","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013519626_p0.jpg?v=1763582312","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013519626","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
