science fair---bah! humbug!


"Don't be cross, mom!" said the child. "What else can I be?" returned the mom, "when I live in such a world of fools as this? Science Fair! Out upon a great project! What's Science Fair to you but a time for doing homework without resources; a time for finding yourself another project, but no ideas, a time for balancing all the minutes in your day and having every second in 'em full and busy. If I could work my will," said mom indignantly, "every idiot who goes about with 'Science Fair' on his lips should be boiled in his own experiment, and buried with a thermometer staked through his heart. He should!"
