The Foreign Student

The Foreign Student By Elton Camp Ahamed’s command of English wasn’t so good, But to make a fine impression, he did all he could. He walked up to one of his professors in the hall, It was the South, so he nicely said, “Howdy y’all.” “To be a member of your class is a great delight. I overheard some students praise you last night. They said you are so smart, you don’t have to try. It just comes so naturally for you to be a wise guy.”
