Making hay while the sun shines
is certainly fine. The Town Boy
seized fork and worked with hear
ty good will pitching hay with all
his might. None were spryer than
he no..teven the hired hand practiced as
he was could equal him in dexterity.
Suddenly his arms felt weak, his
knees trembled and leaning on his
fork he wiped the Precipitation from
his throbbIng brow. A singing sem
sation spread over his neck. it was
sunburned. With dazed eyes and a
sickly smile he simply said, ,"its pritty
warm, guess I'll cool off," and sat
down under tree. The hired hand
smiled and worked on.
Oh, yes, making hay is fine, the far
mer looks upon it with a throbbing
heart of delight. The click cllcki ing
of the machine as it cuts its way
through the sweet smelling grass is
more melodious to his ear than any
symphony that e'er was PLAYED by

The Town Boy swung to his hearts

limb nor faint with the heat but he
did make blisters on his hands. He
climbed trees and cut his initials on

them some time in the future to re-
mind him of the light heartedness of
youth. Oh how exhilarating it all
was, it impaired a new Joy in his
heart, it rubbed off the rust, it clear

on a new world; this sweet commun-

on the front steps watching the last
glow of the retreating sun fade into
darkness. HIS uncle sat on the porch
resting from lis days labors, while
his cousins were either asleep on the

little groups. The hired hand and

was. There was 10 inharnonious

the south side of the great Hook

the south end of the river bridge,
known as the Floyd bridge. The
ground Is we'll shaded by large elm
and willow trees. and is we'll covered
with grass, and looks as nice as a
lawn in the city of Logan. a drive
we'll provides plenty of good drink
ing water while the river furnishes
plenty for bathing purposes IF you
don't believe it ask one of the camp
ers). We have four sleeping tents,

a four foot black snake, which had
crawled up the tree at which our

the mirror, which was hanging
against the tree. He was soon be-
headed with an ak and things are
once more quiet in camp and the
ladies have forgotten ali about it.
