am now one of the most edueatedest
men in the world, because / have been
to so many schools and colleges and
have mingled with so many educated
men and women, until i feel that l
must be some pumpkin in this eduea-
ton business
am sitting around the college walls
of Southern University, sitting at the
table with President J. S. Clark, and
while l see they watch me as l put n
knife in my mouth, and here and there
butcher a few verbs, and knock the
sOx of some adjectives and eonjune-
tons, yet 1 am still regarded as an
educated man and ride around with
this great college president, and feel
so big until 1 think will have to go
to the blacksmith shop and have a few
head bands made in order to keep my
own head in check.
am going to have a few things TO
say to you this week, for have been
to a few places, met few men, and
still l am moving on toward the goal.
got down here Thursday, and young
man with an automobile ear met me
and tOted me up TO the school. was met
by Prof. a. J. Jones, the professor of
agriculture, and he fesoratum over the
boys. He knows how TO handle boys
and it strikes me that he knows how
to handle men. lie wanted to know
if I had had dinner, and in reply l
said "NOratus eterletus." He looked
at me, and then he said that he would
return or would send boy over for
me. That boy came, looked at me, and
escorted me over to the dineatum,
and l did eatum until l was fullum,
and the young man continued to watch
me.
When it comes to agriculture they
tell me that Prof. Jones is the it, and
| was delighted to have met him. be
cause of his worth. He told me that
or account OF some sickness would not
be able to occupy the "Guest Cham
ber,' but that / could remain in his
bridal chamber. He had as his room
mate. DIR. Il. l.. Colbert. Now he is
not a doctor like them other doctors.
for his business is to doctor on the
horses, mules, sOws, dogs. eats. oxen
and all other kind of animals. and
they love him just like YOU love your
doctor. He il looked upon by them
a. a great man, and they regard him
rs their friends. He can listen to the |
grOan or grunt of an animal and locate |
the pain and then direct the medicine
there to lift that -animule up.
just imagine an old man like me in
The room with the two bright young |
men and both of them are wife hunt
ing, and sought my advice which was
given them and - charged them TWEEN
-y-fivc cents each for what / had said. |
In the evening l went in to meet
Prof. J. :. Clark. who had been down /
10 New Orleans, and he shook hands /
with me just like / was also a college |
president. and he was just hOnoring me /
