COVER
Summer suddenly ends, school bells ring, and the best season
for boys gives way to the lessons one learns from books
and teachers. Mother Nature togs out in her most colorful
finery, and Indian summer tempts boys to loll among the
brilliantly dyed fallen leaves. It's unfortunate that the
leaves lose their luster by raking time, but who's thinking
of that now? Sufficient unto the day is the labor thereof.
