few vigorous boys will not think OF,
and it Is probable the boys who at
tended the old New Bury school were
no exception to the rule A family
living close to the sehool-house had a
flock Of sheep, among which was
ram, which, as ''butter" had no SUI
perior and very few equals, in the wri-
ter's experience. y boy always knows
who, in the neighborhood, has the
crossest dog, or the fiereest bull, or the
most unruly horse. or the best fighting
rooster. He knows which apple-tree
bears the earliest fruit, or where the
incest berries are to be found, or in
what direction to steer to reach the
ripest chestnuts, early in the fall. So
the New Bury boys were not long in
making the acquaintance Of this ram.
He was large and powerful, and no
boy had gall enough to tackle him in
any way except by strategy, and many
were the devices resorted to, in order
to get all the fun possible out Of the
ram. When he would be on the other
side of the field they would stick
dummy, stuffed with straw, on the
side of hill, and get the rams atten-
ton attracted by haIlOoing and gest-
ures He would see the dummy, and
come charging with full force at il,
and, meeting no Obstruction, go tum-
bling down the hill. II was singular
how often he could be fooled i'm this
way. Sometimes we put our coats and
hats on stump and had him butt
that, but not often, and sometimes we
rugged up heavy block of wood, with
our clothes on, and let him charge on
that, and great many other ways.
Once boy named Iardley stuck his
head through crack in the fence and
bleated at the ram, who was not far
away. The ram charged up a few
times, but the boy was too quick for
him and jerked his head back before
the ram could strike him. After a
while he became more reckless, and
held his head i'm the crack little too
long, and the ram came at him furious
ly, and, in his excitement, the boy could
not get his head out and the ram
struck him terrible blow, but fortu-
nately, not fairly, as in that case he
doubtless would have broken the boys
neck; as it was he hurt him pretty bad,
and broke the rail with his head. BY
the time the ram charged again we
got the boys head out. He never tried
that prank again.
