The Flag Voyage

was made in factory where a
great many other flags were made. We
were made Of white blue and re.4 bunt-
Ing. When we were finished we were
taken to a store. where we lay for
about a week or two. Then ono day
sailor came In and asked, Have you
any large American flags?" The clerk
answered: Yes. have some new ones
that we have not had In very long
two weeks. believe"
So I was bought and wrapped up.
separa tely from my other friends. !
was very sorry. of course, to leave
my friends. but glad OF chance to
go out into the world. The captain,
whose name was Mr.. George Weathers,
took me down to the wharf, where his
vessel and men were waiting for him.
Here it Is. How do you like 1t,
boys?" asked the captain. We think.
1t Is Just fine: where did you get it?''
II got it at Mr.. Robertsons store"
The sailors took me. from their cap
tain. and put me up on top of the
sails where could be seen by every
other vessel that passed, and this is
how my voyages began.
The first thing l saw WAS a large
blue body of water, and then I felt
myself unfurled by the wind My! but
1t did feel pleasant to have the wind
blowing YOU in the air One day l
saw vessel coming with different
flag on it from me. 1 got very angry,
because thought that 1 was the
only flag there was. When it got
closer saw that it was not like me-
One OF the sailors was standing on
deck, and he said:,"Oh yonder is an
English vessel" ! was very glad to
hear this. AS it came up by the side
OF our vessel. the flag begun to wave
What is your name and where did
you come fron?n asked. Il came
from England, and my name is Bob, :"
said the other flag.
We became fast friends, and hated
to part when the time came.
1t was a very dark and stormy night
two days after this. and the wind was
blowing very hard. Then came an aw-
full blast. and much to my disnay T
found that I was very unsteady, Then
broke and fe4- into the water. One
OF tho sailors saw me. and fshed me
out Oh! how bad did look!--the red
had faded into the white. The sailor
! kissed me and said: Poor old fellow"
After that was not put back up, but
/ as soon as was dry, was rolled up
| in tissue paper, in which ! have lain
ever since. y So here ends my voyage.

LIFE IN A RAILROAD CAMP

/ wonder If any Of the readers Of the
r. D. c. c. Column ever lived In a rail-
road camp. II not, our tar paper houses
would look very funny to them. and they
are good places in which to have fun.
Perhaps you would think 1T poor fun to
eat your breakfast before daylight, but
then that gives me such q nice long day
for playing. Sometimes my lessons are
finished before sunrise, and ! get to the
stable In time to ride the horses to wa
ter, which is something l dearly love to
do go from the stable to the black
smith shop to watch the sparks fly and
the smith shape the red hot iron on his
anvil. When get tired of this go out
and have a talk with the stable boss.
I have lots of fun with ouc storekeeper,
who Is 4 dear old gentleman who Keeps
a very interesting dog and cat. The dos S
name is Buster Brown, and the cat is
Baby Kitty. 1t is now time for me to go
home for my IL o'clock dinner Our
2shanty is quarter OF a mile from camp
and up on the mountain side. always
stop to see the only other little girl IN
camp who is a three-year- old picanlnny.
After dinner we watch and wait for the
postman. who ought to come al $50; and
on Monday there is always q scramble for
the funny paper, which also has the
chdren's page Then comes a long walk
on the grade where the men are at work.
Sometimes we see q blast tear out a
great mass of earth and stone and throw
it high into the air with a tremendous
noise. In these walks have found the
greenest ferns and loveliest moss hidden
away in the mountain side. but the
prettiest thing | have ever seen was the
Kentucky cardinal In his coat of bril-
liant red. with top knot like q fan. They
are SO fearless they will let us come
quite near them. Molly cotton tail often
springs out OF the grass at our feet and
goes running away.
The winter has been SO mild that the
woods are full of singing birds. While
/ miss my old playmates, l have many
interesting things here that make up tc
me for the separation. but nothing can
take the place OF my Sunday-school. and
long to hear the chimes ring from Cen-
stenary and to see Miss Annie and Miss
Lucy and Miss Jennie in their classes
But there now, l am getting homesicI
