along all right till we got among them
Apaches. They wus soon hangin' on
our trail, an one day they s'rounded US.
They wus fifty to our one, an all we
could look for'ard to wus to die Alright
in. They KEEP a-circlin' an a-circlin'
and a-gittin' nearer all tn time, an US
stan'in' with our backs together waith'
till we could shoot to kill. Jist when we
wus a-whisperin' goodbye to each
other them red devils took to their heels
like tn United States army was arter
them. 1t wus an earthquake done il,
an We wasn't troubled no more"
"Wus they a volcany near there?"

Apaches got arter us, an we hustled UP
into tn crater of volcaney so as to
STAN 'em off. We built a kim of plat

One mornin' when We wus jist about

we wus blowed ninety miles to tn west

morrow is the birthday of that little
Jones boy next door,
What of it?" he demanded.
"Oh, nothing much,' she replied
"only 1 happened to recall that Mr..
Jones gave our Willie drum on his
birthday"
We'll, do you think 1 feel under
any obligations to him for that?" he
asked irritably. IF you do you are
mistaken If I owe him anything it's
a grudge."
"Of course" she answered sweetly.
That's why I thought that perhaps
you might want to give the Jones bow

through
Rising Generation of Boys.

A contributor to the Evening Post,
who writes with a practiced hand on
various social topics, finds himself able,
in reviewing the manners of contem-
porary American men, to aver that the
rising generation of boys is a great
deal better bred than the lot that pre-
coded them. For purposes Of compari-
son he Classics the Americans whose
behavior has come under his personal
observation into gentlemen of the old
school, surviving examples of which
were still extant IN his youth, gentle
men of a school which began about
1919, and the youths of the present pc
riod. He relates a number of affiict-
ing characteristics of the school of
1915, and praises its 1atter-day sue
cessors as being more civil, more defer
entail to their elders, and better bal
anced, as shown in their being much
less apt to fall over one another in Of
fering attentions to casual and I'M

and compensation for many delu-
sions.
1t may be. that his hopeful view ap-
plies chiefly to New York lads, but in
