TO BE II BOY AGAIN- Call up memory Telephone back to boyhood days- if you would brush away the dark shadow of business cares from your brow for a moment Turn the pages backward Dont stop to pine over one that might have been blurred with a sad incident turn them swiftly and eagerly until the brilliant pages of boyhood are reacheda lad of ten twelve or pos ¬ sibly fourteen summers Draw the scenes of your old home close into your imagination until within an hour you have lived a whole year back yonder where life was sunshine- and roses The scene is laid in the big red hills where the chestnuts swing in hauhty defiance high up in the topmost boughs of the tall tall trees Where the old colonial fence rows are mark ¬ ed with long straight rows of chin ¬ kapin groves- A boy bounds out of bed as the first rays of daylight plays across an October sky and with happy delight hails the first white frosty morning- of the season In the long hallway he is fondly greeted by a faithful old dog which follows him closely through the kitchen wagging its tail in happy anticipation of the good times coming Here the boy engages 40 Old Mammy- in a sharp argument comes out mas- ter ¬ of the situation by filling his pockets with fresh sweet biscuits and warm crip doughnuts then he makes his way into the back yard amid familiar shouts of negro dialect and broken sentences of reproof Bootless and barelegged he braves the brisk morning air and brushes aside the frost from the long grasses with his brown feet Down through- the old apple orchard he flies away until out of sight of Old Mamy he stops to divide lunch with the dog and warm his toes in the sandy bed where the Calves have lain The foliage of the apple trees is I sparkling with a thousand bright em ¬ eraldsJack Frosts diamonds of an October daybreak and here and there- a big red applemellow sweet and juicy hangs temptingly just out of ordinary reach But this boy is not hunting apples Provided with a cotton piker bag which wiiigs from his shoulder and ilmcbl drags upon the ground he I I eaps the fence at a ingle bound and hurries toward a grove of trees in the woods pasture I Chinkapins My oh Did you ev- er ¬ see tile like HP gives oath tree a heavy shaking and the ground is cov- ered ¬ I with the beautiful black spark ¬ ling nuts Thats line Nownever- mind the burs they wont stick this boys feet Oh no He rakes and picks up and blows the trash and leaves from every handful Now and then he catches up the cotton pick ¬ ers old bag in both hands and sizes up the contents Each time his face grows brighter Well now Thats most of em Hell leave the balance- to the pigs But hold Theres some beauties- sure Goes back pulls a limb down and adds a few more to his store He starts again but not without looking back several times in anticipation of another early visit there Cold No no This boys heart is too warm in the rich wine of life to shiver in the frost However as he turns his bright face toward the dear old home and sees the dark blue smoke curling trout the chimneys- as the delicious flavor of the morn ¬ ings meal is borne to him on the fad ¬ ing sweetness of the melting frosty he quickens his footstep- A few minutes later the scene is around the family board Mamma has guessed 500 Papa 850 Grandma 1000 Sister cut it down to 300 but Grand- pa ¬ raised it to not less than 2000 Ah grandpa

WOULD NT YOU LIKE TO BE IIBOY AGAIN-

Call up memoryTelephone back to boyhood days-

if you would brush away the darkshadow of business cares from yourbrow for a moment

Turn the pages backward Dontstop to pine over one that might havebeen blurred with a sad incidentturn them swiftly and eagerly untilthe brilliant pages of boyhood arereacheda lad of ten twelve or pos ¬

sibly fourteen summers Draw thescenes of your old home close intoyour imagination until within anhour you have lived a whole yearback yonder where life was sunshine-and roses

The scene is laid in the big red hillswhere the chestnuts swing in hauhtydefiance high up in the topmostboughs of the tall tall trees Wherethe old colonial fence rows are mark¬

ed with long straight rows of chin ¬

kapin groves-

A boy bounds out of bed as the firstrays of daylight plays across anOctober sky and with happy delighthails the first white frosty morning-of the season In the long hallway heis fondly greeted by a faithful old dogwhich follows him closely through thekitchen wagging its tail in happyanticipation of the good times comingHere the boy engages 40 Old Mammy-

in a sharp argument comes out mas-

ter¬

of the situation by filling hispockets with fresh sweet biscuitsand warm crip doughnuts then hemakes his way into the back yardamid familiar shouts of negro dialectand broken sentences of reproof

Bootless and barelegged he bravesthe brisk morning air and brushesaside the frost from the long grasseswith his brown feet Down through-

the old apple orchard he flies awayuntil out of sight of Old Mamyhe stops to divide lunch with the dogand warm his toes in the sandy bedwhere the Calves have lain

The foliage of the apple trees isI sparkling with a thousand bright em ¬

eraldsJack Frosts diamonds of anOctober daybreak and here and there-a big red applemellow sweet andjuicy hangs temptingly just out ofordinary reach

But this boy is not hunting applesProvided with a cotton piker bag

which wiiigs from his shoulder andilmcbl drags upon the ground he

I

I eaps the fence at a ingle bound andhurries toward a grove of trees in thewoods pasture

I Chinkapins My oh Did you ev-

er¬

see tile like HP gives oath tree aheavy shaking and the ground is cov-

ered¬

I with the beautiful black spark ¬

ling nuts Thats line Nownever-mind the burs they wont stick thisboys feet Oh no He rakes andpicks up and blows the trash andleaves from every handful Now andthen he catches up the cotton pick ¬

ers old bag in both hands and sizesup the contents Each time his facegrows brighter Well now Thatsmost of em Hell leave the balance-to the pigs

But hold Theres some beauties-sure Goes back pulls a limb downand adds a few more to his store Hestarts again but not without lookingback several times in anticipation ofanother early visit there

Cold No no This boys heart istoo warm in the rich wine of life toshiver in the frost However as heturns his bright face toward the dearold home and sees the dark bluesmoke curling trout the chimneys-as the delicious flavor of the morn ¬

ings meal is borne to him on the fad ¬

ing sweetness of the melting frostyhe quickens his footstep-

A few minutes later the scene isaround the family board Mamma hasguessed 500 Papa 850 Grandma 1000

Sister cut it down to 300 but Grand-

pa¬

raised it to not less than 2000

Ah grandpa youve been to thetrees I guess I
