The country. bred boy has the distinct
advantage over the city-b bred fellow in
two things; his strength is greater by
reason OF his country birth and he has
IA clearer idea of hard work. The
country-bred boy. AS a general rule,
has to struggle for his existence; he
has to help on the farm. and generally
he is at hard work. This gives him
strength and power of endurance,

hard work. The city bred boy rarely
knows what hard work is, aud when he
meets it as a young man he cannot en-
