Did you volunteer in class as I suggested? Teachers are always impressed by students who volunteer...it is a sure way to better grades...'"<BR><BR> Linus is in profile as he reads, "'Remember, better grades now will mean a better college later on...did you eat your carrots? Proper nutrition is essential to good study.'"<BR><BR> "Are you sitting in the sun? I hope so, for a little sun is good as long as we don't overdo it...perhaps ten minutes a day at this time of year is about right.'"<BR><BR> Charlie Brown approaches. He says, "Hi, Linus...what are you having for lunch?"<BR><BR> Charlie Brown sits next to Linus, who responds, "Carrots, peanut butter, and guilt!"<BR><BR>
