Heckle, Jeckle, and Dimwit are all grade-school students among a class of other animal-students. To help slow-learner Dimwit with his studies, the magpies invent “Answer Paste”, to help the answers to questions “stick” to Dimwit’s feeble brain. Dimwit immediately achieves great intellectual heights then falls when the jar of “Answer Paste” drops to the floor and breaks. For their interference, Heckle and Jeckle are forced to “…remain after school and write [their] names six-thousand, seven-hundred and eight times – forward, and nine-thousand, three-hundred and seventy-six times – backward”.
