COCK FIGHTING

This is a most amusing game, and,
although only two boys can play at 1t
at one time, they will keep the rest of
the company in roars of laughter. The
two who are to represent the cocks
having been chosen, they are both
seated upon the floor.
Each boy has his wrists tied together
with a handkerchief and his legs Sc
cured just above the ankles with an
other handkerchief; his arms are then
passed over his knees and a broom
stick is pushed over one arm, under
both knees and out again on the other
side over the other arm. The cocks"
are now considered ready for fighting,
and are carried into the center of the
room and placed opposite each other
with their toes just touching. The fun
now commences.
Each "cock" tries with the aid of his
toes to turn his opponent over on his
hack or side.
The one who can succeed in doing
this first wins the game.
1t often happens that both cocks"
turn over at the same time, when the
fight commences again.

Prize Story

NFABLE and her brothers had been
N stacking hay all morning and so
A'A were pretty tired. Billy, Mable's
largest brother, said, Lets play hide
and-go-seek?"
This speech was greeted with a
chorus of "Hurrahs'' by all the chill
dren, who Immediately threw down
their pitchforks to count to find out
who would be it.
Mable was it first, but she soon
caught Billy.
When Billy was counting Mable
thought it would be great to hide in
the hay-stack they had just made.
So she climbed up and has to re-
main until Billy calls, IAN sorts in
free" She started to climb down,
but instead she fell down and hit her
face on the pitchfork, which she had
SO carelessly left turned up.
Her brother took her into the house,
where she had to remain two weeks, as
her face was too sore for her to go
to school.
Mable was a very industrious little
girl. and so she studied at home with
the help of her mother.
When she went to school again she
studied very hard and paid attention
to all that was said.
She was much afraid she would not
pass her examinations.
She was very happy little girl and
felt amply paid for the extra hard
work she had done when the teacher
told the room that Mable ranked Sec
ond in her class. HELEN G. MACE.

One more week and school would be
out. All the children were there the
last part of school, so as to be pro-
NOTED. . But one little girl had been
absent nearly two weeks. The teacher
and children were all anxious TO Know
why she did not come. Not one of the
children lived near to poor little I'M
ogene. so no one knew why she did
not come to school,
Two days before school was out I'M
ogene came back and all the fourth
grade children gathered around to see
why she had been absent so long. Inc
teacher came out also and questioned
the sick child. Imogene said that she
had the mumps. She wanted so badly
to come to school, but the doctor would
not permit this 81 wanted to come TO

Graham, will l be promoted this
year?" Eyes, dear" said the teacher,
''but you will have to come to school
and stand the final examination" ION,
good; that is much better than to stay
one more year in the fourth grade"
At the end of the term all were pro-
NOTED. Imogene could scarcely wait
to reach home to tell her proud parents
about her promotion.

Fourth Grade Teacher and Pupils Helped Little Girl
Honorable MentIonl

T OUISE DORAN was little
fourth grade girl who was very
u fond of her studies, her school
mates and her teachers. Louise had
never missed a day going to school,
because she hoped at the end of the
term to get a pretty gold pin for
attendance. The child who had never
missed a day going to school was to
be at the end of the term presented
with gold pin.
Every child in the room was trying
and not one had been absent. But one
morning when the smiling faces of
the boys and girls came in, Louise's
was not among them. Yhe teacher
and the pupils were greatly surprised.
However, at the beginning of the
third week Louise returned with her
face all bandaged up. Louise ex,
planned that she had caught the
mumps from the girl next door, and
said if they would only give her a
star for attendance that she would
stay after school every night till she
caught up with the others.
The teacher wasn't sure whether
the principal weald do this or not, but
promised to do all she could to help
her. At recess the teacher spoke to
the principal, and he said If by the
last week of school she had caught
up with the others she may get one
of the pretty pins. The last day of
school arrived. and each child had a
shining gold pin. Louise thought she
would not receive one, but she was
mistaken. for the principal came in and
handed her a pin just like the others.
Louise thanked him for his kind
ness and also the teacher. She hur-
ried home to show her pin to her
mother, whom she knew would also
be very glad.
