ALL ABOUT THE CONTEST.

ISul liz lcW CUIlSSl 10
starting out splendidly and by next
week we expect to have many nice
Junior letters to publish. Remember
this contest will run for four weeks,
the editor announcing each weeks
work two weeks in advance so that all
the Juniors, those getting the Daily
Junior and the Weekly Junior, will
have an equal chance. OF course the
Juniors winning the recent big prizes
cannot try again for while. They are
such prompt" Juniors that we are
afraid they would win this prize. too,
however, we want them to write sto-
ries or letters right along and keep
in touch with the big Junior family.
First Week.
To try for this prize, a nice
watch, cross, or locket, the Juniors
must write to each other for the first
weeks contest, which will close Fri
day, August 81. We think it would be
nice for some of the honor roll Juniors
to write to each other Now we do
not want very long letters, but we
want each letter to be original This
time we are going to publish the Jun
Tors names, and tell just what time
their letters reached the Ottumwa
postof1ice.
We want the Juniors TO be more
prompt when working in a contest. We
would like to know why some of the
Juniors failed to send in their work
for the last week Of the contest Just
closed 1t seems strange for Juniors
to work so hard for three weeks and
then fail to write the fourth week. We
| hope these Juniors will tell in their
letters how it happened.
Second Week.
For the week ending Friday morn.
| ing, September 7, at o'clock, we want
the Juniors to see how many towns or
cities they can make out of the Presi-
dents name, Theodore Roosevelt. We
will let you send in names Of any of the
cities in Uncle Sans possession, pro-
viding the first letter can be found in
Theodore Roosevelt.
Also write little story about the
President. Remember, don't have II
too long If you are wise Juniors you
will get your work in by Thursday
Sept. 6. Remember, to be ranked with
| the contestants your name must be
with the Juniors Aug. 81.
Write on one side of the paper only,
give your address and age, as we'll as
your name On the envelope write,
Courier Junior, Ottumwa, Iowa.

test" is awarded to Irma Fleener This
little Junior fulfilled all the rules OF
the contest. The prize should have

Dear Editor
I am little girl nine years of age,

poem:
The Caterpilars.
Eight great cabbages growing in the
ground;
Crowds Of little caterpillare crawling
all around;
/ Caterpillars squirmed about, and wrig-
;. gled in the sun;
Said, These cabbages look sweet,
suppose we taste of one
Down flew hungry bird, coming from
the wood,
Saw the caterpillars there and said.
Wont those taste good"
Up crept Pussy-cat, hunting round for
mice,
Saw the bird, and smacked her lips
j and said, won't he taste nice!"
Dog saw pussy creeping there, and be-
gan to run,
Said, Nov l will brighten puss, and
then there will be fun"
So doggy barked, and pussy hid, and
birdie flew away,
And caterpillers lived to eat cabbage
j up that day.

Stevenson Will Work for
Typographical Survey of
Swamp Lands.

Washington, Jan. 19.-Repre-
sentative Stevenson has decided
not to press his reclamation bill,
whichprovides for a REIN bursible
appropriation direct for drain
age for Minnesota lands. After
several conferences with Capt.
Bernard, of the Minnesota
Drainage league, it was thought
best to first get a complete topo-
graphical survey of lands to be
drained, and then to secure
special reports on the rivers and
streams that can be utilized. E..
B. Daugherty, Of Duluth, said
today that 10 project pending in
congress was of more Importance
to the state than the drainage
proposition.
