Having a good time in Sunday School

Marjorie D. Hamlin

It was Sunday morning, and Eric was on his way to Sunday School. This was the only time of the week he got to see Tommy, and they always had fun together because Tommy made Eric laugh. Sometimes they laughed during the hymn or during the Lord's Prayer. That made their teacher frown. Eric knew these weren't the right times to laugh, but Tommy was so funny!

Mrs. Jones was really a nice teacher. She smiled a lot. But she had an ugly wart on her face. On the first Sunday when Eric asked her what it was, she had replied, "It's just error. I hope you will help me to unsee it." That was hard to do. It looked mighty real!

Today Eric would try to be good. But he hoped Tommy would show up and looked for his bike on the rack. It was there! Eric hurried inside and walked over to his class. He plopped his books on the table with a bang. "Hi, Tommy!" he said with a grin. All the children from other classes looked over to see what had made the bang. Tommy pretended he didn't see Eric and pulled Eric's chair out from under him just as he was starting to sit down. Everyone laughed.
