BAREFOOT BOY A MYTH
Life Of Boy on Farm Years Ago
Overpraised.

Overprased.

est songs. artists paint them In the
brightest colors, and our memories
may deceive us regarding the days
of long ago. when we were boys on
the farm or in the village, but SOBER
detection. with the glamor omitted
leads to the belief that moro myths
date back only score or so of years
than stretch to the days when the
world was i'm its infancy. How many
OF us of mature years had the com
forts. much less the conveniences' OF
modern life? The great majority
grew up without street car service
without gas or electric light, without
steam radiators in our rooms, without
the telephone and without an album
dant water supply for the kitchen ana
bath.
The old swimming hole sounds ro-
mantle, and there We're many days OF
bliss. But the boy of today has so
many other sources of pleasure ana
delight that he would scorn the swim
ming hole. 1t is by contrast that
pleasures are derived. The lad OF for

he has quite carefully sounded the
sentiment of the county and district,
