SLANDERING THE BOYS.

Every now and then there is seen in the
public prints something about how a boy
hates the school, and how bad he feels
when vacation is over and he turns his
back upon the old swimming hole, and
sets the uusty shotgun in the corner Of
his room and turns sadly to his books. to
grind out miserable existence till school
ends again.
Now. this sort Of gush don't even read
well. It hasn't the redeeming quality Of
romance, and as a matter Of fact is untrue
in the great majority Of cases. To give
publicity to the sentiment that all boys
are idle and hate study is a slander that
ought to be repudiated.
All over our great country right now
are boys beyond the possibility of number
ing who are anxiously waiting for school
to open and are planning a campaign Of
