Lipstick

According to a news report, a certain private school in Sydney was
recently faced with a unique problem .


A number of 12-year-old girls were beginning to use lipstick and would
put it on in the bathroom.


After they put on their lipstick they would press their lips to the
mirror leaving dozens of little lip prints.


Every night the maintenance man would remove them and the next day the
girls would put them back.


Finally the principal decided that something had to be done .


She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the
maintenance man.


She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem
for the custodian who had to clean the mirrors every night - ( you can
just imagine the yawns from the little princesses).


To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the mirrors, she
asked the maintenance man to show the girls how much effort was
required.


He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the toilet, and
cleaned the mirror with it.


Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror ..

Moral to this story:-


There are teachers.... And then there are educators ..
