Compositions From thf Camden Uradml Ncliool THE AM EH 10 AN HOY. J.hc American boys have as many good opportunities to beco ue famous as any other people in the world. Tbo reasons for this are because i the;r country has a government that ia npt oppreesive, nnd booauae their natural and artificial advantages are very great. t In Russ.a and the othor absolute governments of the worb), the peo- j plo are deprived of many advantages. I by the absolute rulers The people I in Africa have very few advantages, because there are no good harbors j oq the coast, and the greater part of' the island is full of jungles and wild ' beastd. ' ... But in the United States, there are many largo and navigable rivers, many fine harbors on tbo coast, nfany domestic animals, many railroads,'] aud many schoojs and universities are all over tbo country. The boys of the United Blates therefore have many advantages to be thankful for. There is West Point .Military Acade my where many of our-gtcat men took their first step towards fame. Another gieat.colloge is at Annapo lis, where our young men are trained for tbe naval eervice. Other great] schools are Harvard, Ya!e, and Washington Colleges.,, The last named was afterwards e n t i t led "Washington and Lee University." In order to become nsefal citizen^, tbo boys of our country should tako j ?dvantcgeof their opportunities, and not (brow them away as many have foolishly doue. * Clarence Trautham Age 13? Grade VII. THE AM ICRIC A N GIRL. - Tbo girls and boys of Amerioa has eyery opportunity that they should wish for. They have private schools and free schools of every kind, and they have colleges all over tho Uqj^ ted States too. The savages have no opportunity of any kind. Soroo children in the world have nev,l.r seen a school, while in America, when the children arc not able to buy their bookp and clothes, tbe town or city furnishes them, and send a wagon around to their house for them if it is raining -or* snowing. Some girls of Amer?oa will not go to school if they have a chance, but they had better go, because, if they have an odacation, they support .tfiempelves by teaching school and olerkintf and there ar0 many other things they can do to support them 8C!
