A CHAMPION spELLER.
Horace Greeley Was . Wonder When
Only Six Years Of Age.

Only Six Years Of Age.
No champion Of the old time spelling
matches. perhaps. ever e1celled Horace
Greeley. He was, In fact. spelling
prodigy. What would the boys and
girls of today. who grumble over their
daily stint Of twenty words. think Of
a child not yet six years old who could
actually spell every word In the Ian
guage. That Is what the young Horace
Is said to have been able to do.
His schooling began in his fourth
year, and tho art Of spelling at once
became passion with him. In school
and out he kept necessarily at its
study. Hour after hour he would lie
on the door. spelling over all the diff
cult words he could 6nd in the few
books that the family owned.
The fame Of his prowess spread.
Naturally Horace was the first one
chosen at spelling matches. He had
lisping. whining voice and spelled bis
words with the utmost confidence.
Sometimes In winter. when the snow.
drifts were 80 deep that one of the
big boys had to take him to the school
house on his back. the little white
haired fellow would drop asleep be-
tween turns. When his word came
round his neighbor would nudge him
anAiously. He would wake. spell his
word and drop asleep again at once.
So great was the boys reputation as
a student of unusual powers that the
selectmen Of neighboring town. In
nsssinC n rule fOrbidding the attend
ance at the local school Of any pupil
from outside the township. honored
him by adding the clause. Excepting
only Horace Greeley."-Youth's Com
