WHY THE SEA is SALT

In the Golden Age, runs the old Morse
legend, the earth was ruled by a god
named Frodi, who, among other trifles,
possessed a beautiful hand mill that
ground out gold and happiness and
peace, and anything else that it was
asked for. The grinders were two
giantesses, ruled over by Frodi, and all
went we'll until a sea rover appeared
on the scene After this, however, all
went badly, for the rover slew Frodi
and carried the hand mill and the
giantesses out to sea, where he ordered
them to grind salt. This for a whole
day they did. but when night came
they awoke their new master from his
sleep and asked If they had not ground
enough But the sea rover sternly bade
them keep grinding till morning. The
maidens took him at his word and
worked with such will that long be-
fore daylight the great load of salt

BLACK KITTENS BRING
BAD LUCK TO JUNIORS

N HE pictures this week We're far
from being representative OF the
= best work the Juniors can do. The
eight black kittens with their frolic-
some, quarrelsome or peaceful disposi-
tfons. caused little interest among the
young artists. Just why this is so does
not appear. The topic ought to have
furnished a lively variety in the usual
list of pictures for boys and girls must
be as tired of drawing the same smll-
ing childish faces each week as the
readers of the paper must be Of see
ing them as they appear in some gulse
of the drawing subject.
However, the eight black kittens did
not please anyone as a topic. Even the
girls and boys who did submit pictures
did so with reluctance, and all agreed
that the topic was altogether too hard
and too thankless for them
There are some interesting pictures
among the lot which are reproduced,
and many of those which failed of re-
production this week are yet deserv-
ing of mention.
Walter Graham, 412 East Sixth street,
Boyd street school. grade B7, sent
spirited drawing showing the kittens
in a lively encounter with balls, bas-
kets. etc. The work is an improve
ment over much which this same artist
has submitted and shows that per
sistence is profitable.
Lucille Muldoon, COS East Twenty
nineth street, Twenty-eighth street
school, grade IA, also sent in an ex-
cellent group of kittens, but the draw
ing was hardly black enough for the
topic.
Irene Tanner, PSI East Thirtieth
street, Thirtieth street school, grade
B6, drew black cats, and they were
plenty black enough but there were
not cats enough. The back yard fence
with it's knot holes and wide cracks
made an effective background for the
cats, and the picture suggests the
yowls with which one naturally asso-
ciates the environment.
Voris D. Connor is another of the
contributors this week who deserved
special mention. His work with the
drawing pen is not so satisfactory as
Is his work for the writing contests,
but the effort to try all the contests Is
a praiseworthy one and meets with the
editors approval. Developing a gen.
eral ability is far better than too much
effort along one individual line.
The two new topics. Halloween
Sports" and Mothers Return" ought
to bring forth some good work. The
older boys and girls will probably be
turning all their attention to draw
ings for the front page of the Hal
loween number, and l hope that their
work will be along some original lines.
The other pictures for which all Her
aid Juniors, and in fact all boys and
girls of public school age, may contest
will also be suggestive of Halloween,
and in anticipation of the host of good
pictures which will come for both
these topics the Junior editor will Of
fer two prizes in the drawing contest
each week from now on. The fountain
