Lesson73 The record-holder
Children who playtruant from school are unimaginative. A quiet day's fishing, or eight hours ina cinema seeing the same film over and over again, is usually as far as theyget. They have all been put to shame by a boy who, while playing truant,traveled 1600 miles. He hitch- hiked to Dover and, towards evening, went into aboat to find somewhere to sleep. When he woke up next morning, he discoveredthat the boat had, in the meantime, traveled to Calais. No one noticed the boyas he crept off. From there, he hitch-hiked to Paris in a lorry. The drivergave him a few biscuits and a cup of coffee and left him just outside the city.The next car the boy stopped did not take him into the centre of Paris as hehoped it would, but to Perpignan on the French-Spanish border. There he waspicked up by a policeman and sent back to England by the local authorities. Hehas surely set up a record for the thousands of children who dream of evadingschool.
