"New National Fourth Reader"


There were Delays, and Tardys, and Put-offs, with ever so many more; and
in a corner by themselves, and looking more unhappy than all the rest,
were the poor little fellows whose names were "Too late."

Directions for Reading.--Pupils should read loud enough for all the
class to hear them.
The words forming a _quotation_ should usually be spoken in a louder
tone than the other words in the lesson, as--
_"Johnny,"_ said his mamma, one day, _"will you bring me an armful of
wood?"_

Language Lesson.--Divide into syllables, accent, and mark the sounds
of the letters in the following words: _Carlo, armful, mountain,
unwind_.
What two words can be used for each of the following: _I'm, didn't,
let's, you're, isn't, won't?_
What other words could be used instead of _got_ (page 16, line 4)?[02]
Proper names should begin with capital letters: as, _Johnny, Carlo_.
Give three other words used as proper names in this lesson.
