n Lazy Man

ohn

was Iazy.He didn't

want

to

work. He

preferred

to

stay

at

home

and

watch

television.

One

day, John's wife

went

to

the

supermarket. She

saw

a

"help

want-

ed" sign

in

the supermarket

window.

The supermarket

needed someone

to

put

things on the shelves. She spoke

to the manager. She

told

him

that her

husband

didn't

have

a

job

but

he

was

very strong. She

told

him

that John

would

come

to talk to him about the

job.

When she

got

home, she told her

husband about the

job.

John

was

watching television

while she was

talking

to

him.

His wife

was angry.

She turned

off

the

television.

She ordered

him

to

go

to the supermarket

to apply

for

the

job.

John

didn't

want his

wife

to be angry,

so

he went.,

On the way to the supermarket John thought what would happen if

the manager

offered

him a

job.

He

wouldn't

be able to stay home

and

watch television. He would have to come to the

supermarket every day

and

put

things on

the shelves"

Then

he

had

an

idea.

He

decided

to

tell

the manager that

he

had

a

so,re

shoulder

so that he

could

not raise

his

arm

above his head. He was

sure

the manager

wouldn't

give

him

the

job.,/

When

he

arrived

at

the supermarket, he

told

the manager

that he

needed

a

job.

"Are

you

stron-e?" the manager asked.

John explained

that he

couldn't

raise

his arm above

his head.

John

told

him

that he had an accident

at home

while

digging

in

the

garden.

"How

high

can

you

raise

your

arm?" the manager

asked.

John

lifted

his

arm

a little.

"Only

this high," he

said.

"And

how high

could

you

raise

it before the

accident?" asked

the

manager..

"This

high,"

said John.

And

he lifted

his arm

above his

head.

the Salt,

Please

ames was a

little

boy

who had no manners.

His father

and

mother

tried to teach

him manners

but

they

failed.

His

teachers

tried

to teach

him

manners too, but

they

had

no

success either. He

never said

"please"

or

"thank

you,"

never stood

in a

line,

and always told

people

exactly

what

he

thought.

James' father

was

a businessman. One day, James'mother told James

that

some

important

people were

coming to

dinner that

night.

"They

are

your

father's clients," she said.

"Please

try

to have

good

manners for

them.

Remember

to say

'please'

and

'thank

you.'

Make

sure

your

hands are clean and

your

hair is neatly combed. When they

greet

you,

say

'Hello

Mr. and

Mrs.

Fox,' and don't

talk

with

food

in

your

mouth when we are having

dinner."

"Yes,

Mom,"

said

James.

When the visitors

arrived,

James' mother introduced them to him.

"James,

this is

Mr.

and Mrs.

Fox,"

she said.

Mr. and Mrs. Fox smiled at James and Mr. Fox

said

"Hello,

James."

He

shook

hands

with

him.

James' hands

were

very

dirty

and

his hair

was

very

messy.

"Hi,"

said

James.

"Why

is

your

name Fox? Do

you

have

four

legs

and a tail?"

His father heard

him

and frowned at him,

but

James

took no notice.

When they were havin_s dinner

James said to his mother,

"These

veg-

etables

don't

have enough salt

on

them." He leaned

over the

table

to

get

the salt shaker. He couldn't

quite

reach it, so he said to

Mrs. Fox,

"Pass

the

salt."

His

mouth

was

full of

food.

His mother

heard him and

was

horrified.

"James,"

she

whispered

to

him,

"Pass

the salt, please."

James

looked

at her.

Then

he said,

"Wait

your

turn.

I

asked for it

first."

Nei

ghbor

rett

and

Colin

had

been

neighbors

for

many

years

and

had

become good

friends.

They

often visited

each

other

and

talked

to

each

other over

the

jerlce.

Sometimes

they

helped

each

other

with

small

jobs,

and

they

lent

their

tools

to each

other.

One

day

a

new

neighbor

moved

into

the house

next

to

Brett.

He

came and

introduced

himself. His

name

was

Max.

Brett

welcomed

Max.

"If

there's

anything

I can

do

to help you

sgitle-in,

just

let

me

know,"

he said.

"Thank

you,"

said

Max.

"I will."

The next

day

Max

knocked

on Brett's

docr

and

asked

if he

could

borrow

some

gasoline

because

he

wanted

to mow

the lawn.

o'Yes,

of course,"

Brett

said.

-\-r

He

showed

Max

where

he kept

the

gasoline.

"Just

help yourself

if

you

run

out again,"

he

told

Max.

"Thank

you,"

said

Max.

"This

is

a

very

friendly

neighborhood,,,he

said.

"Everyone

is very

helpful."

*

A

week

later,

Brett

was

reading

the

paper

when

he saw

Max

come

into

the

y@

and

help himself

to

some

more

gasoline.

Max

smiled

at

him

and fr-aved.

Brett

waved back.

Max took

some

gasoline, went home

rnd

mowed

his

lawn.

The

next

weeTT"rett

was

surprised

to

see Max

come

into

the

yard,

smiii:

and wave,

and take

more gasoline.

Then

he

went

home

and

mowed

his

lawn.

when

it happened

the

fourth

time,

Brett

was

angry.

He went

to

visit

Colin.

"Colin,"

he

said,

"that

new

neighbor

of

mine,

Max,

keeps

coming

into

my

yard

and

taking

gasoline

so

that he

can

mow

his lawn.'He

is

doing

it

every

week.

why

doesn't

he

buy his

own gasoline?

I'm

going

to

stop

him.

I think

I will put

some

sugar in

the

gasoline.

That

will

"Oh

Colin.
