HE said that the boy CAME home crying and SAID that two boys in THE second grade had JUMPED on him. His father ASKED him why he didn't FIGHT them back as they WERE about the same size. THE boy replied "Well TWO boys in the second GRADE is the same as ONE boy in the fourth GRADE" and we are inclined TO think that the young MAN'S reasoning was JUST about right--which REMINDS us that when YOU folks buy one of - OUR guaranteed Kantleek HOT WATER bottles you ARE better off than BUYING four cheap ones.
