198                          Appointments and Schedules
               forget any weekly appointments, if you follow these rules.
                 The  information you've been taught  here  can be prac-
               ticed, or used  as  a  memory stunt in  the  following  man-
               ner:—
                 Have a  friend call out  certain  errands for different hours
               of different days  of  the  week. They needn't be called  in
               order,  since appointments  are  never  made in any  particular
               order,  anyway. Have  him write  these  down as  he calls  them
               off  to you. After he has  called about  twenty of them, simply
               go over your peg words for  Monday (toes, tot, tin,  tomb,
               etc.)  and call back all the  Monday  appointments. Do the
               same for  each day of the entire week.  Or,  he  can  give  you
               the time  of  day, and  the day,  and you give  him  the  errand,
               and so on.
                 Then give your friend a half hour  to  remember  the same
               list. The odds are he will fail miserably!
