In the town where these boys lived there had
recently been a freman's convention For
whole week the town was astir. There had been
trials Of skill the part OF rival companies,
there had been exhibitions of improved fire ap-
paratus there had been band contests in the
city park. Public buildings had been decorated,
flags had been flying. business had been sus-
pended while the populace thronged the streets,
and the excitement had reached it's climax and a
fitting end with a monster procession, which the
visiting companies had united with the home
brigade in making the most magnificent display
the town had ever seen.
1t was the memory Of this splendid pageant
in the mind Of the small boy that suggested
the scheme to Buck.

boys. They had a meeting IN the old barn

England has lands and colonies pretty nearly
all round the earth. SO. the earth turns
around and brings first one side and then the
other toward the sun the sun is shining
some land of Englands all the time unless it
happens to be cloudy. So they say that Eng

Why. some Of the boys" James Henry said

that Denmark used TO own. and they said the
United States had got to own the whole of
America some time"

Of the whole of America? What should We do
with it if had it? And when did We buy
those Danish islands? l thought they still be

Il thought We bought them last week" James

Sone through before one country can buy islands
from another country. But If We are going to
talk about these islands bring your geography

James Henry brought his geography. and
found the map of the West Indies. Here are

But what buying them for if we
don't want them?" James Henry asked.
We don't want them" said his grandfather:
"why not?"
But l thought you said what should we do
with them if We had them"
"Oh, l said what should we do with the whole
Of America if had it? l think that these
three little islands, little as they are will be
Of some use to us. But there is another reason
for buying them, and that is that Denmark
wants to sell them l think that Denmark
wants TO sell them more than the United States
wants TO buy them. Denmark has owned them
New-York tribune., 1902-02-02

for more than $50 years, but it costs Denmark
a good deal to send solciers there to guard them
and it costs a good deal to take care of them IN
other ways, so Denmark is getting tired OF
spending much money"
But wouldn't it cost the United States just
as much if we had them?" James Henry asked.
Perhaps but L think that We could make
enough good use of them that it would pay.
