:50:03
Oh, l just wanted to say,
:50:05
ma'am that the gentleman
wasn't making no trouble.

:50:07
He just needed a little help.
:50:09
Here, drink it Johnny.
:50:10
lsn't there anything that l can do?
:50:13
lf you wasn't you on the beat,
Mr. McShane,

:50:15
you'd know that Johnny
never makes any trouble.

:50:17
And you'd know that the whole Nolan
family doesn't need anybody's help.

:50:21
l'd thank you, Mr. McShane,
if you'd mind your own business.

:50:24
Oh, sure, Mrs. Nolan.
:50:28
Beauty is truth through beauty that
is all ye know on earth and all

:50:36
ye need to know.
:50:38
Now, class,
:50:40
Beauty is truth through beauty that
is all

:50:45
ye know on Earth and all
ye need to know.

:50:50
Now who knows the name of the meter?
...Frances Nolan?

:50:53
Yes, but...
:50:55
You can't know but...
:50:57
l only meant to say, l was thinking
about the words, what they mean,

:51:02
and l wondered...
:51:03
You don't have to know the words,
Frances, just the meter.

:51:06
But if beauty is truth and thas
all ye need, l mean, all you need to

:51:10
know, then that means that is the
most important thing.

:51:13
And if a man, i mean if somebody,
spent all his time trying to be that.

:51:21
well is hard to put...
but no matter what else he did, then.

:51:26
Then what, Frances?
:51:28
Then it would be all right.
Wouldn't it?

:51:31
l'm afraid l don't understand, a
thing you're saying, Frances.

:51:35
And we're late now with our
arithmetic.

:51:37
Class will get their arithmetic...
:51:41
Pop, why don't the Katz and Jamma
kids talk plain English?

:51:44
ls supposed to make it funny.
l guess.

:51:48
Francie, you've been staring out
that window over half an hour,

:51:50
can't you make up your mind
to do something?

:51:52
What shall l do?
:51:54
Well, you used to like to do your
homework Sundays.

:51:56
Oh, l don't know. l don't like
school as much as l used to.
