copper toes at first, but when the other
boys all crowded around them at the
district school and said: Gosh! Woosht
my pa would fix my boots that way!'
they felt more comfortable and rather
happy. From that it went on till, fol

house, IL for no other reason, fathers
had to buy copper tOed boots for theii
