A near- sighted stranger watched him for a time. It does my heart good to see you appreciate that cloud effect, at length, remarked the stranger. Yes, sir, it's fine, replied the boy excitedly. The soul of a poet, sighed the stranger. Do you often watch sunsets, my boy F Sunset, nothin'! Gee, Mister, that's the schoolhouse burnin'.
