Mr. Brown was a teacher. He taught in a big school in London. He lived a long way from the school. So he was always quite tired when he went home. At nine o'clock one evening, when he was in bed, the telephone bell rang. "This is White Bridge 165, who's speaking, please?" said Mr. Brown. "Watt." a man answered. "What's your name, please?" said Mr. Brown. "Watt's my name" was the answer. "Yes, I ask you that, what is your name?" Mr. Brown said again. "I told you, Watt's my name," said the other man "Are you Jack Smith?" "No." answered Mr. Brown.
