have already cleared and prepared

prepare a like plot on the lower

the winter moisture and in the spring
the ground will be narrowed, fenced

About the same methods will be en-

that great brutality is practiced at

conclusion that to build a capitol In

We send our children to school to
gain an education. The children are
given duties to perform, and with the

Can we snirk responsibility so i'm

school house, and why MOI enter there

of our little ones. and We must not
place upon them a responsibility We
