JUDGE Brave Deeds of Bright Boys No. 1. How Archie McOsker Saved a Man's Life ARCHIE twelve 22% years old and in his second year in primary school. One day Archie was just about to leave a barroom McOsker was when he saw near him an old man who had arranged seven glasses of Antigua rum in front of him and was preparing to down them one after the other. The old’ man was pretty well shot already, and Archie, taking in the situation in a glance, realized that seven more hookers would prob- ably prove fatal. With a bound he at the side of the old man and before the latter could speak, Archie had tossed them off himself without batting an eyelash. The old man turned out to be none other than Goody Two Shoes and he rewarded the daring lad liberally for his bra ection. Archie finished his schooling the following year with the old man’s assistance and is now a rising cash boy in a meat market. Tommy and His Fish Tommy is only four years old but he is already very fond of ‘the finny sport.” Tommy's collection of fish, which he keeps under his bed, includes one squid, a score of eels, a lovely little trout as good as new, and a perfect honey of a slightly used ham sandwich. howe’ Tommy never tires, of telling how he hooked his biggest fish. Let us hear him tell it himself: “It was at a night club,” says Tommy, “and we had gone about half the evening when I found out that I had left my billfold in’ my other pants, heh, heh... . Just then I saw the waiter approaching with the check. I turned to the other gent in the party, a citrus man from the West, and told him I had to make a call. Then I ducked around the corner and in two minutes I was out on the main drag heading for my crib. Say, that was a close call!” A Playtime Song Ring-a-ring-o'-roses, That's the game to play, In the shady orchard On a summer's day; While the birds above us, In the apple tree.
