　　dents were dear to me，but Mark Eklund was one in a million.Very neat in appearance，he had that happy－to－be－alive attitude that made even his occasional misconduct delightful.

　　ithout permission was not acceptable.What impressed me so much，though，was his sincere response every time I had to correct him for misbehaving.“Thank you for correcting me，Sister！”I didn't know what to make of it at firstd to hearing it many times a day.

　　One morning my patience was growing thin when Mark talked once too often，and then I made a new teacher's mistake.I looked at him and said，“If you say one more word，I am going to tape(用胶带封上) your mouth shut！”

　　seconds later when Chuck，another student，blurted out，“Mark is talking again.”I hadn't asked any of the students to help me watch Mark，but since I had stated the punishment in front of the class，I had to act on it.

　　I remember the scene as if it had occurred this morning.I walked to my desk，very deliberately opened my drawer and took out a roll of masking tape.Without saying a word，I proceeded to Mark's desk，tore off two pieces of tape and made a big X with them over his mouth.I then returned to the front of the room.As I glanced at Mark to see how he was doing，he winked at me.When I walked back to Mark's desk and removed the tape，his first words were，“Thank you for correcting me，Sister.”

　　One Friday，I asked the students to list the names of the other students in the room on two sheets of paper，leaving a space between each name.Then I told them to think of the nicest thing they could say about each of their classmates and write it down.It took the remainder of the class period to finish the assignment，and as the students left the room，each one handed me the paper.

　　That Saturday，I wrote down the name of each student on a separate sheet of paper，and I listed what everyone else had said about that individual.On Monday I gave each student his or her list.Before long，the entire class was smiling.“Really？”I heard the whispers.“I never knew that meant anything to anyone！”“I didn't know others liked me so much！”Then Mark said

　　No one ever mentioned those pieces of paper in class again.I never knew if they discussed them after class or with their parents.

　　Several years later，after I returned from vacation，my parents met me at the airport.Mother gave Dad a side－ways glance and simply said？”My father cleared his throat as he usually did before saying something important.“The Eklunds called last night？”I said.“I haven't heard from them in years.I wonder how Mark is.”Dad responded quietly.“Mark was killed in the Vietnam War(葬礼) is tomorrowparents would like it if you could attend.”

　　I had never seen a serviceman in a military coffin before.Mark looked so handsome，so mature.

　　After the funeral，Mark's mother and father found me.“We want to show you something，”his father said.“They found this on Mark when he was killed.We thought you might recognize it.”Opening a billfold，he carefully removed two worn pieces of notebook paper that had obviously been taped，folded and refolded many times.I knew without looking that the pieces of paper were the ones on which I had listed all the good things that Mark's classmates had said about him.“Thank you so much for doing that.”Mark's mother said.“As you can see，Mark behaved better and better at school.It's all because of you and your list.”

　　Mark's classmates started to gather around us.Charlie smiled rather sheepishly and said，“I still have my list.It's in the top drawer of my desk at home.”Chuck's wife said，“Chuck asked me to put this in our wedding album，”“I have mine too，”Marilyn said.“It's in my diary.”Then Vicki，another classmate，reached into her pocketbook，took out her wallet and showed her worn list to the group，“I carry this with me at all times，”Vicki said without batting an eyelash.“I think we all saved our lists.”

　　That's when I finally sat down and cried.
