that he can be calm

Stanley must have looked surprised, because Mr. Sir went

on to explain that they started early to avoid the hottest part

of the day. "No one is going to baby sit you," he added

"The longer it takes you to dig, the longer you will be out in

the sun. If you dig up anything interesting, you are to report

it to me or any other counselor. When you finish, the rest of

the day is yours."
