Article title by JIM reminds Coach Grigsby of 5th grade teacher Comments re article 49154 JIM New Year 100 years ago On little cat feet By David Grigsby I was pleasantly surprised to see the phrase, "on little cat feet" in the reprinted article from New Year 100 Years ago. I was first introduced to the phrase as a 5th grader by my teacher, Mrs. Pennington. It is a quote taken from a poem by Carl Sandburg around 1916. Here is the original: 'THE fog comesMrs. Pennington was teaching us about the use of Personification in writing. For some reason it was a lesson I never forgot. --David Grigsby Thanks, Coach Grigsby, for sharing that memory, and for remind us of the great moments of insight teachers have provided. I wonder if Mrs. Pennington knows that she connected that day with a young mind in a way which made a lasting, positive impression? That surely must be one of the big rewards for a true teacher. -EW For the few readers who may not know, David Grigsby is the Head Coach of Lindsey Wilson College Cycling.
