Sixth Grade

This was a very useful year for me and several of my friends because of the teacher, Miss Emily Fluker, who was an expert at teaching English grammar.  Lawrence, a much younger friend, told me that he frequently quoted Miss Emily in his conversations in the Air Force. On occasion, another officer in a conversation about grammar rejoined, "What would Miss Emily say about that?". I found that English 101 in college was not a bit better than Miss Emily's classes.
