  • Did the boy go where he wanted to?
    • 2
  • Children who play truant from school are unimaginative.
    • 3
  • A quiet days' fishing,
    • 4
  • or eight hours in a cinema seeing the same film over and over again, is usually as far as they get.
    • 5
  • They have all been put to shame by a boy who, while playing truant travelled 1, 600 miles.
    • 6
  • He hitchhiked to Dover
    • 7
  • and towards evening went into a boat to find somewhere to sleep.
    • 8
  • When he woke up next morning,
    • 9
  • he discovered that the boat had, in the meantime, travelled to Calais.
    • 10
  • No one noticed the boy as he crept off.
    • 11
  • From there, he hitchhiked to Paris in a lorry.
    • 12
  • The driver gave him a few biscuits and a cup of coffee and left him just outside the city.
    • 13
  • The next car the boy stopped did not take him into the centre of Paris as he hoped it would,
    • 14
  • but to Perpignan on the French-Spanish border.
    • 15
  • There he was picked up by a policeman and sent back to England by the local authorities.
    • 16
  • He has surely set up a record for the thousands of children who dream of evading school.
