N,~ Daily Of Ftsdss.
LEARNINa.--The youths of Seat
tie are as class industrious, and
many of them will surely make a
record in history. Their labors be-
gin early in the morning, and some
times extend late into the night.
Almost any morning and evening
before the apples were gathered this
fall groups of boys were seen walk
ing the streets carrying long sticks
with sharpened nails in the ends.
These sticks had their uses by their
aid large portion of The apple crop
was gathered and slowed away for
winter use. Another industry ex
tensively followed by these youths
is the collecting and selling of empty
sacks. One youth recently sold 400
sacks which he had industriously
gathered from various barns and
sheds after nightfall. The chicken
business is also carried on by them,
but buyers are extremely cautious.
and the boys are compelled to retail
them out at the rear doors of board
ing houses. So parents whose sons
are on the streets considerable por-
tion of the time need have no fears
of their growing up in idleness;
their names will surely be handed
down to posterity in the history of
our courts. They will undoubtedly
be well cared for by our officers of
justice.
