Ray and Roy were alike as two peas. One could not tell from one the other. The twins were inseparable. To add insult to the injury, they were in the same club, scouting.

Their teachers always found it difficult to identify the boys. On several occassions they played tricks on us as well as our teachers. I remember this day very well when Ray had not completed his assignment. The saying better late than never had fallen on deaf ears for he had not attempted.

Soon the teacher came and we were all made to stand and books were read name by name and at last it was discovered that Ray's book was missing. The teacher glared menancingly at Ray and marched towards him. Panic striken, Ray pointed at Roy and said, "He is Ray."

The teacher stood confused while Roy sat silently on his seat pointing a finger to Ray. The class roared with laughter. It turned out to be an amusing lesson.

Teeth are very important part of our body. They need to be taken care of well because they help us chew our food. Remember we cannot live without food.
