LESSON 19.

PRONOUNS.

+Hints for Oral Instruction+.--We propose to introduce you now to the
_third part of speech_. +T.--+If I should ask who whispered, and some boy
should promptly confess, what would he say? +P.--+_I_ whispered.
+T.--+Would he mention his own name? +P.--+No. +T.--+What word would he use
instead? +P.--+_I_.

+T.--+Suppose that I had _spoken to_ that boy and had accused him of
whispering, how should I have addressed him without mentioning his name?
+P.--+_You_ whispered. +T.--+What word would be used instead of the name of
the boy _to_ whom I spoke? +P.--+_You_.

+T.--+Suppose that, without using his name, I had told you what he did,
what should I have said? +P.--+_He_ whispered. +T.--+What word would have
been used instead of the name of the boy _of_ whom I spoke? +P.--+_He_.

(Repeat these questions and suppose the pupil to be a girl.)
