state Y. M. c. A. Convention.

Little Rockville sixteenth annual
convention of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association was held here from
April 10th to the 18th. From the
standpoint of attendance it has led
all other conventions in tae state
and in real Y. M. G.. A. interest the
present convention has never been
surpassed. A feature of the conven-
ton has been the large number OF
college Y. NJ. C. A. members in at
tendance. There were registered, all
told. Saturday afternoon 81 collegians
who are members of the association,
inent educators of the state. me
railway and city associations hav
also been well represented, but the
palm for large attendance was easily
carried off by the college boys, who,
imbued with the usual college entha-
siasm, did much to enliven the occa-
sion and add interest to the meeting.
Another feature was the large num-
Der of prominent Y. M. c. A. workers
from other sections of the country
specialists in the different lines of
work, who took an active part in the
program and assisted materially in
making the convention success.
Among these we're: A. G. Knobel,
international secretary of railway
work. New York; c. l.. Gates, inter-
national field secretary of the South
west, Kansas City; K. A. Shumaker,
state secretary of Kansas, Topeka;
Rev. Harris A Gregg, st. Louis; w.
A. Jones, we'll known singer, Fort
Worth, Tex; President ]. n. Tillmaa,
University of Arkansas, Fayetteville.
At all of the various meetings held
during the convention a great deal
of enthusiasm was manifested by the
members and the different contrlbu-
lions pledged reached very satisfac-
tory sum- Plans for continuing the
work of the organization throughout
the state on an extensive scale were
made at the final meeting held by

Tom came to the mans place of busi-

him to work. Tom didn't like work.
He stayed a day or two and then ran

him back. Then he ran away again,
and again the man coaxed him back.
At last the boy settled down and
stayed in the mans employ for
whole year. And the man was patient

Jerry's First Mouse,

Our cat caught a mouse the other
night, the first one he has ever caught
so far as | know in the two years |
have owned him. Jerry, for that Is
his name, has worn since he was a
wee tiny kitten little bell which
seemed TO bother him very much. He
would sit by a hole in the floor for
hours at time, and once | watched
him when lie scented a mouse. He
was greatly excited and his body
trembled, but just as he was about to
spring his bell tinkled, much to his
disgust, for he walked away, growing
to himself.
How he he rid himself of his bell
last week still remains a mystery to
me, for we have not found 1t as yet
But when | opened my door the other
morning there sat Jerry, looking up
at me, with mouse in his mouth
about the size of a peanut; but Jerry
seemed SO proud Of It, and his eyes
seemed to say, There, now | guess
you'll not put another bell on my col
lar" Needless to say, we did not
and we are waiting for another catch,
and so is Jerry.-Audrey M. Watts,

"Yes, dear, if you're sure your moth

two midgets go out by yourselves"
"'Course she does, aunty," Bertha's
laugh rippled out in sheer amuse-

and we never go very far, and there's
no crossing"

hug nearly crushed the dainty ruch-
ing.
"She's just a little fairy" Miss Ira
cy thought, as the child disappeared.
Gracie's mother consented, with all
the cautions mothers give about dis
tances and time. Neither mother nor
aunt thought of a lurking danger
perhaps they didn't know of it at all.
