Miss Elson,
I've been thinking a lot,

1:25:06
and you know how class president
1:25:07
automatically gets to be editor
of the sixth grade newspaper?

1:25:12
Yes.
1:25:15
Well, I think...
1:25:20
I think that it's
too much for one person

1:25:23
and that it's not fair
to everybody

1:25:25
because everybody
deserves a chance.

1:25:30
And...
1:25:35
And we should change it.
1:25:37
Objection!
1:25:38
This isn't a courtroom, Marion.
1:25:41
I like that idea, Harriet.
1:25:44
Let's see what the class thinks.
1:25:46
Miss Elson, I think
1:25:48
I speak for everyone when I say
1:25:50
this is, this is a really,
really stupid idea.

1:25:53
That is one opinion.
1:25:56
But let's take a vote.
1:25:59
Marion is now editor
of the Guidepost.

1:26:03
Would anyone like to nominate
another candidate?

1:26:13
Well, I guess if no one
has anything to say...

1:26:20
I have something to say.
1:26:28
I think that Harriet's
a very good writer and...

1:26:33
if we only listen
to one person's opinion

1:26:36
we may never
get anywhere new.

1:26:39
But Harriet might have
something very original

1:26:43
and I'd like to read
what she has to write.

1:26:50
Is there a second?
1:26:53
I second it.
