Capitolo 31

it was essential to the maintenance of his/her personal authority.

Last of everybody, the Mr. Smith, the learned manager walked in the
classroom with the air of a commanding general, it followed from Allan
Roscoe that he had invited to see the school in operation.

Socrates Smith sustained right back part his/her desk, and it waved his/her hand
majestically.

"My young friends", he said;  "this is one marked day. We have with us
a new boy that owes of now from now on to be one of us to be a member of ours
happy family, to divide in the respectable advantages that You everybody
enjoys. Has need I say me that me check Dominare Roscoe, the custody of ours
separate friend, the Mr. Allan Roscoe that he/she sits close to me and with
affairs, am I sure, does it observe our institute?"

As he spoke him it turned toward the Mr. Roscoe that mentioned with the head a
recognition.

"I can tell the Mr. Roscoe that I am proud of my pupils and the
their leftovers you/they have made my position under. (The manager quietly
ignored the two ushers that the whole teaching did.) When these boys
you/he/she has come to a tall position in the world, it will be my proudests
boasting that they was prepared for the duties of the life to Smith
Institute. Comparative with this proud satisfaction, the few niggardly
dollars that I demand as my honorarium are not anything--completely nothing."

Socrates seemed virtuous and disinterested as he gave expression to
this feeling.

"And now, boys, you will start Your daily exercises under the,
direction of my learned partners, the Mr. Crabb and the Mr. Jones."

The Mr. Crabb weakly seemed pleased to this compliment, although him
wiseacre was only because a visitor was present. In private, Socrates
it was rather proper to offensively speak of his/her attainments.

"While I am absent with my separate friend, the Mr. Roscoe, me
you are waited that you industriously undertake Your study, and you preserve more anymore the
perfect order."

With these words, the grandiose figure of Socrates passed through the
door, followed by the Mr. Roscoe.
