HOME TOWN GAVE HIM
A FAREWELL BARBECUE.

The home town gave him a barbe-
cue on that last day-farewell hon
ors for him and the half dozen
others who made up "our first per
cent" The incest girls in town
served him sandwiches and cooed
over him; old ladies wanted to kiss
him and shed tears on his newly
pressed suit; there was a ringing
speech by the judge, and the Silver
Cornet band played Dixie" over
and over again. 1t really was
mighty fine; made a chaps insides
swell up; set the little shivers to
chasing each other up and down his
backbone; lit a warm glow around
his heart for the old home town
and his own people.
But he has left them behind
now-the cheers died down to
echoes as the train gathered speed;
he has craned his neck from the
window to catch a last glimpse of
the lanyard on the outskirts of the
village; every telegraph pole that
whizzes past seems to be pointing
opening before him.
No prep school boy leaving home
for his freshman year at college
has half the hopes and fears, the
inconsistencies and the sturdy re-
solves of the selectman bound for
the training camp. Every station
stop on his way gives him a new
glimpse Of the life ahead; every
field he sees flash by the train has
in It the tug of the life behind.
