forthcoming picture-and when the curl:

beamed with inspiration and little finger;
worked eagerly. -.E

Yes, if you want it," said the teacher

And make good, big Johnny"
/ When finished not all Of the pictures
contained ''big Johnnies." Some of them
were very tiny boys, about an inch long at
the very top of the paper, and some were
of painfully irregular proportions. But
the babies had gained very fair idea OF
boy shoveling snow, and had suggested
it.. Johnny again went across the room
with his shovel; and the pupils looked
earnestly first at their drawings and then
at Johnny, to see if there was even a
remote resemblance.

sketch of her own.

"Blue-light blue!" said two or three
voices. Eyes, and what for the sunset?

dipped their brushes into the clear paint

tints obtained were good, and the effect
certainly that of flaming Minnesota
