LOT OF LITTLE GIRLS.

One of my vacations spent at Lake Min
neWaska, Glenwood and another spent on a
farm In the country. Both were very pleasant,
and it is hard to tell which 1 enjoyed the most.
AT the lake it was great sport to go bath
ing and boating, and fun to fish altho I never
was lucky enough to catch anything but a
bullhead or doglsh. But the pickerel, bass
and trout the others caught tasted very sweet.
On the farm there were chickens to feed, eggs
to gather and nice, fresh, warm milk to drink.
During haying time it was very pleasant to
ride on the loads of sweet-smelling hay. At the
lake had the company of several little girls
my own age so perhaps that vacation was
little the pleasanter.
