No Use Asking About School Work Her big brother gives Wiki a pitying look. He learned long ago it was no use asking Mum and Dad about school work. You were supposed to find these things out for your yourself. He offers her a scrap of information. “That's where you keep your money, if you got any.” Wiki writes it down. A savings bank is where you keep your money so it is safe. Satisfied, she puts her book away. So that's all a savings bank is, she thinks. Dad gets home from work about nine, has tea, and goes to bed to read Best Bets. He tells Wiki to wash his dishes. Wiki's talk is a dismal failure, and the teacher is cross with her. She says Wiki didn't prepare it properly. A week later the newsletter is still lying on the mantlepiece. Nobody has bothered to read it.
