OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF BABES

> A college professor was doing a study testing the senses of first graders

> using a bowl of Lifesavers. He gave all the children the same kind of

> Lifesavers, one at a time, and asked them to identify them by color and

> flavor.

>

> The children began to say:

>

> Red = cherry

> Yellow = lemon

> Green = lime

> Orange = orange

>

> Finally, the professor gave them all honey Lifesavers. After eating them

for

> a few minutes, none of the children could identify the taste.

> "Well", he said, "I'll give you a clue. It's what your mother might

> sometimes call your father". One little girl looked up in horror, spit

hers
