FRATERNITY FEELING.
Two of a kind make a pair. These two are
not of a kind ; but they make a very good pair
anyway. Do you want to know who they are ?
Well, I will tell you then.
You see we were once the “ Farmer’s High
School.” That was a long time ago. Cut we
still raise a few small potatoes to show the “coun
tries’ ’ when they come to see us. In the picture
the new boy and the boy of bygone days are out
for the Sunday morning air. The teacher in
“raisin’ potatoes” has told the new boy to take
good care of “sonny” and not let him eat the
“raw cow-cumbers,” or stone the chickens. He
has never been to the city, and does not know
what the new boy has on his head. The big fel
low does not want him along, but he will not take
the hint.
