The Patchwork Girl of Oz by Lyman Frank Baum 
 Unc Nunkie, Margolotte and the Magician all stood looking at the marvelous Powder, but Ojo was more interested just then in the Patchwork Girl's brains.  Thinking it both unfair and unkind to deprive her of any good qualities that were handy, boy took down every bottle on the shelf and poured some of the contents in Margolotte's dish.  No one saw him do this, for all were looking at the Powder of Life; but soon the woman remembered what she had been doing, and came back to the cupboard.

The Baffled Parent's Guide to Great Basketball Drills by Jim Garland 
Before each practice begins, make sure you check the court and remove any debris from the playing surface.  When your players arrive, check that they have the proper footwear and that they've removed any jewelry, which could injure the player wearing the jewelry or another player.  Always carry a list of emergency phone numbers for your players, and know where the nearest phone is located.  You should also have a first-aid kit, and you might want to take a first-aid course.
