The rooks beat Medford slightly worse than the frosli had done the preceding night, and used substitutes dear down to the fourth team.

T was paid $60 a month and my board, which to a fellow of 17, seemed big money. “If I were to go job hunting again,” continued fiean Faville, “I think that 1. would try anything but camp cooking. “Perhaps, I might change my mind if I could attend Miss Tingle’s class in carnp cookery. “Who knows, perhaps I may some day.” said the dean turning bark to his desk.
