The new librarian decided that instead of checking out children's books by writing the names of borrowers on the book cards herself, she would have
the youngsters sign their own names. She would then tell them they were signing a "Contract" for returning the books on time.
Her first customer was a second grader, who looked surprised to see a new librarian. He brought four books to the desk and shoved them across to the
librarian, giving her his name as he did so.
The librarian pushed the books back and told him to sign them out. The boy laboriously printed his name on each book card and then handed them to her
with a look of utter disgust.
Before the librarian could even start her speech he said, scornfully, "That other librarian we had could write."
Received from Thomas S. Ellsworth.
