A FORGOTTEN LETTER

There was little girl whose mother
gave her letter to take to the post
office. On her way she met some of
her friends going skating. They asked
her to. join them, but she said she had
to go to the postoff1ce. Well" said
some of the girls, go when you como
back. Well be back before dark" So
she went. But she forgot her mother
told her to go directly to the postoffice.
She skated until 1t was growing dark
and them she thought of the letter that
she had forgotten. Then she took it
to the postoffice. but it was too late TO
go till the next day.
When she came home she Gid not
tell her mother what she had done,
TEer mother then said her uncle had
asked for her to go with him tomor-
row for sleigh ride which she had
been wishing to take. But she remem-
bered the letter and told her mother
Her mother said her uncle would he
gone before he would receive the let
ter. 1t was a hard lesson for her. But
she always did what her mother told
her to do after that.

the fence into corn field. He ran
along the rows for long time, when
he again came to the fence. The
man had just passed.
Now is my chance" thought the
boy, so he jumped the fence and
slipped under the wagon. 1t was not
strong in the axle, and when his
weight went on it swayed and crack
ed. He was very much frightened.
Then 1t cracked again. The man
heard 1t and jumped off the wagon
to see what could be the matter.
When he caught glimpse of the
boy he said: Now l have caught
you, and taking the boy by the arm
he led him home. He told the boys
father all about It, The boy was
very sorry, because he had broken
the mans wagon. When he came to
the supper table that evening his
father told him how he felt, that his
little boy would show so little respect
to an older man. Then the boy prom
ised that he would never steal anoth-
er ride.

When we were ready to put it back it
would let us catch it and put it back

One night after we had travelled

him down"
Miss Randall was so surprised and
amused at Jacks earnest manner that

He will be here tomorrow and then

THE scAREcRow.

I think there was once man who
had some chickens and when the hens
would lay their eggs, the crows would
come and get their eggs. So one day
the man took an old pair of pants or
overalls and stuffed it, then hung it
up in a tree close to his hen house, so
when the crows come back the next
cay they saw this and it scared them
so that they didn't come back for a
few days, and the man was glad Of
that. But in few days the crows
came back and saw the same thing,
and it scared them out for good this
time. Maggie Mccoy.
