picture tram
Here you see a tram. It runs on rails in the street. It
has twelve wheels and three doors. Through the rear
door you get in, and through the doors in the middle
and in front you get out. The tram is driven by electricity.
It gets the power from an electric wire hanging
over the street.
In the tram there are two persons in uniforms. One
is the driver who drives the tram by turning two handles.
With his right hand he operates the brake and
with his left hand he regulates the speed of the tram.
It is forbidden to talk to him while he is driving. The
other person is the conductor. The latter may be a
woman. He (she) sits beside the rear door where you
get in, so that everybody must pass him (her) and pay
the fare. When you have paid you get your ticket.
Then the passengers move forward and sometimes
they get a seat, but if the tram is crowded, they must
stand.
When the passengers want to get off, they press a
button a short time before the tram reaches the stop,
and signal tells the driver that someone wants to
get off.

office-boy usually accustomed to arrive last, on that particular
morning reported to the manager exactly ten
minutes early. He then put new blotting-paper into
the pad, emptied the ash-tray, brought in the letters
and apologized for a mistake he had made the day before
when he had put the wrong address on the parcel.
Mr. Brown, the manager, spoke to the secretary over
the telephone. How polite her voice was to-day. Usually
she was so interested in the latest shade of lipstick
and the wealthy young man who took her almost
every evening to dances, cinemas and theatres that
she was almost rude when Mr. Brown requested her
to do some work.
Mr. Brown looked over the head-clerk's accountbook.
Mr. Green, the clerk, boasted that he could
calculate any amount more quickly than the addingmachine.
Now Mr. Brown looked over the clerk's
account-book and carefully added the totals twice.
And what a surprise, the total amount of the receipts
from cheques and of debts from bills and the balance
had been properly dealt with. At last Mr. Brown
asked the typist for the report of the last committee
meeting, which she was typing. Usually she had an
excuse ready but not the report. But to-day the report
