Dianne Sees "Truth's honest child"

[Of special interest to juniors]

MARY FOX PUMPHREY

Each day except Sunday Dianne went to the large pool for swimming lessons with her swimming team. It was all so much fun she didn't want to miss a day. Then quite suddenly all the fun seemed to end when a certain boy known as "the pest" began tormenting her.

This boy seemed to get more pleasure from teasing and being rude than he got from swimming. And if he thought the coach was not watching, he often cheated in this way: by not going all the way across the pool, he could start back ahead of the others.

At different times he had been reported to the coach and as punishment he had to get out of the pool. But this did not correct the situation, for as soon as he thought no one was watching him, he always slipped back into the pool and was just as much of a pest as before.
