289. She achieved her resolution


One day teacher B said to teacher A, "I wanted to talk with you about something I saw a few days ago, at the entrance of a school. It regards discipline. Albeit maybe nothing wrong might have happened: what I mean is only that that thing reminded me of discipline. Look, one young female teacher arrived at the school - very same could have happened with a guy. She looked as though she was in a bit of a hurry to reach the school. A few students - this was in the afternoon, when extra activities - said to this girl something about whether her boyfriend had picked her up to the school by car. She was young and pretty. The tone of the kids was kind of, say, ironic, or better said, like, er, humor, yet with a streak like a joke, close a too buddy relationship with their teacher. This teacher got a little serious, so as to show them there is an obvious, logical distance between her and the kids. I learned from that."
On the picture you can see audacious and intrepid Harriet Quimby.
She achieved to fly over the English Channel, I think in 1911, also in a Bleriot, like pilot Bleriot himself, had achieved the same goal in 1909.
Remarkable to say that this woman made the flight the other way round: from England to France.
I think to remember she could not see Calais, because of an aweful fog, but she landed onto another beach, being praised joyful by the fishers, who came fast to greet her and praise her for her adventure. static howstuffworks com, thanks for the photograph.
