Mary told about some boys adven-
ture in forest near their home.
Once there was a boy that had about
a million friends. or that is what
boy said that had just come to that
town and had noticed that everybody
spoke to him whenever they met MIN.
1t was not long before Jed and he be-
came close friends also.
Once Jed and some of his friends
went to the forest to get some Wild
flowers to take to school to paint the
next Monday. They played tag ON the
way and it was some time before they
got to the flowers. One of the boys
said that there were million peoples
to the square yard, but the others were
busy picking and did not notice him.
After they had finished picking the
flowers they lay down to rest and
about a million bees began humming
around them. They looked up into a
tree and saw a large hole in 1T where
the bees were working The boys were
hungry and thought they would get
some honey.
So two of the boys climbed the tree
and tried to get the honey. In an in
slant the bees were all over the boys
and one of them said afterward that
he had about million stings. They
tumbled out OF the tree and started
home as fast as their swollen legs
could carry them.
On the way home they saw what
they thought was hanging nest be-
longing to large bird which they had
seen in a tree near there. It was such
a large one that one of the boys want
ed to take 1t home to show to his
folks. 1t was on high branch and
was hard to get They thought that
if they could stick pole through it
they could get it that way. They ran
the pole through 1t and began to pull.
They tore the nest and before they
knew it they were covered with about
a million hornets. That evening they
said that they felt about a million
times larger than before

There won't be any call to school,
In million years from now,
No chance for you to break rule
In million years from now.
No marching up the school house stair,
No ribbons in your curly hair,
No teacher with commanding air
In a million years from now.
In a million years from now all peo-
pie of the earth will be equal. No
white, black, yellow or red men. No
rich or poor men. Money will not be
needed, for there will be nothing to
buy; everything will be free for ALL
The people will all have wings and
fly from place to place, will be able
to live under the sea quite as COM
fortably as on land and will swim with
as much ease as they fly.
Fruits and nuts will grow in
abundance and will be the principal
food. The climate will be one con-
tinuous midsummer day. There will
be no darkness, for the sun will never
set. The moon will have been burnt
out and will exist no more.
The lion will take the place of the
watchdog and the tiger the place of
the cat. The average height of man
will be fifty feet. There will be but
one language spoken by men, animals
and birds alike.
No emperors kings, presidents, may
OIL nor judges will there be, but hap
piness will reign supreme and death
will be no more in million years from
now. MAUD EDWARDS.
