“In a barrel of odds and ends it is different; things get mixed up, and the juice kind of swaps around, and things go better” (Twain 1). Analysis: “Proper” society prefers everything from their people to their food separated where Huck realizes that life can “go better” when one mixes everything/everyone together.

“Living in a house and sleeping in a bed pulled on me pretty tightly mostly, but before cold weather I used to slide out and sleep in the woods sometimes, and so that was a rest to me” (Twain 14). Analysis: Despite having basic amenities, Huck still prefers to be in nature. A house and a bed make him feel cramped. He takes a break from society and is able to “rest up” when he is alone in the woods.

 People need to realize that teaching is not telling and that one must try to help others understand not just know. Ex. Huck’s confusion over Heaven and Hell.  People must learn to think for themselves. Ex. Tom Sawyer copies what he reads in books without knowing what he is doing.

 What do you like most about Huck as a character so far? What do you like least?  What does the hair-ball tell Jim about Huck’s future? How specific is the prediction? Can Jim really tell the future? (pg 16)
