A mother and a father had several children, now all the children had their mouths twisted out of shape except

their son John, who they had sent to college and had just returned. They all got ready for bed and Mother asked

Father to blow out the light. "Yes I will," was his reply. "I wish you would," said she. "Well I will," said he. Father

blows upward due to the twist in his mouth. Father asks mother (use the same sequence of phrases as in the

previous sentence), she blows downward. Mother asks daughter, daughter blows to the right. Mother asks son

(not John) who blows to the left. Finally, John, the college son is asked. He blows straight and blows out the

candle. Father then says, "What a blessed thing it is to have a son with an education."
