There is hardly any doubt that Buster's real middle name must have been "Trouble," for, in learning of his mother's decision to advertise for a tutor, he immediately called Mary Jane and the faithful Tige into consultation and all three repaired to a paint store where they laid in a supply of paint and brushes and proceeded to concoct a sign which was destined to have dire results for them all. "Wanted, a Tutor to Tute Two Tots, etc," was the way the sign started off. Buster and his companions placed the sign in a prominent position on the lawn and awaited results. They came quickly in the person of Algernon Cadwallader, who entered the house to make further inquiries. His reception was somewhat exciting and it was quite evident that he had heard of Buster before, for on learning that he was supposed to teach Buster Brown, he made a hurried exit, assisted materially by Tige and the Goat. Buster's glee was short-lived. Herr Professor von Blitzen made his appearance in answer to Mrs. Brown's advertisement and proceeded to take command of the situation. Undaunted by the fierce manner of the little German, Buster and Tige tried some of their regular tactics only to find that Herr Professor was thoroughly capable of taking care of himself. Tige beats a hasty retreat from the schoolroom, followed by Von Blitzen. The goat enters into the conflict and is very roughly handled, to his great surprise. Buster is thoroughly spanked.
