The school at'Amos began last Mon.
day one week ago. October Z, and It
was spectacular sight to see the
vast army Of children, boys and girls,
winding their way to the temple OF
learning. ANY one seeing such d
sight would naturally be forced to the
conclusion that the old saying the
good die yonng.' does not hold good
In these modern times, The children
were all Clearly and neatly clad, no
two looked alike, no two dressed alike,
no two talked alike and no two wore
the same expression on their faces.
Some were cheerful and gay. Some
were mad and suIIen.
One little fellow passing along the
street in rather a meditative mood
with lot of books pressed to his hos.
som and who seemed to realize what
was before him said to his companion.
Just think of It. months OF hard Ia.
Dor before. His companion who flour.
ished a half smoked cigarette between
his fingers and with n peculiar nod
OF the head said the matter was not
bothering him at all; he was simply
going the first day to take in the sit.

the teacher looked like. Another lit.
tie fellow passing along and being Of
jolly make mp was repeating some
old time honored verses which run
something like this:
