LITTLE JEAN.

Once upon time there was little
bov named Jean. His aunt was very
cross and selfish with little jean. A
schoolmaster on the next street agreed
to teach him for almost nothing. The
schoolmaster was very unkind to him.
The night before Christmas there was
to be singing at the church. The
schoolmaster was to be there with all
his boys. 1t was very cold and snowy.
down over their ears and warm clothes.
But little Jean had no warm clothes.
He came shivering in thin coat
which he wore in summer, and a
pair of coarse stockings full of holes,
and pair of wooden shoes. When the
singing was going on and the organ
making the loud music they began
son whispered Of little fir tree in
his mothers parlor. Then the child
rea talked of Santa. But little Jean
said nothing. for he knew his aunt
would send him to bed without any
supper At last the music ended The
boys arose in order and left the church.
AS little Jean passed through the
door of the church he saw little child
asleep in the snow. He was sorry for
him, He pulled off one of his wooden
shoes and laid it by the side of the
sleeping child and went limpins
home. His aunt asked him where he
had been and what he FAD done with
his shoe. The woman said 'fYou may
put that shoe in the chimney. II any
thing is left in it. it will be stick to
whip you with Tomorrow for your
dinner you shall have a crust of bread
to eat and cold water to drink. She
struck the boy upon the cheek. The
next morning the old woman arose and
went down stairs. A wonderful sight
met her eyes. She was so amazed she
cried out. Little Jean heard the cry and

LUCY AND MAY.

Dear Editor and Juniors
There was very poor little girl
that went to school with Lucy.
Her dress was old and torn. Lucy's
mamma made her a new white apron.
Little May looked at it and 1t made
her feel very sad when she did not
have one
When Lucy went home that night
she said:
Mamma, may l give my apron to
little Mayo
Her mamma said, 81 don't care, but
| have not time to make you another
one"
The next night Lucy brought May
home with her and Lucy's mamma put
the apron on her May looked very
happy. She said, Thank you, Lucy, this
will hide my old dress"
She wore it to school the next day.
Lucy was never sorry she gave it ia
May.
This is the third time l have writ
ten to the Junior. have two postals
from the Junior. Yours truly,

The Signers of
the Declaration
of Independence

Last week, you all remember, we
gave a little story from st. Nicholas
about many of the signers of the
Declaration of independence. We
hope the Juniors will al read the fol-
lowing brief sketches. If the Juniors
do, we are sure they will want to know
more about the men who made 1t pos
sible for all the Juniors to enjoy the
Fourth of July:
New Jersey.
OF the five delegates sent to Phila-
delphia by New Jersey, two were
farmers, John Hart and Abraham
Clark. When the British invaded
New Jersey, Harris home and farm
were laid waste, and Hart himself,
then man of seventy-one, was hunt
ed from place to place. Tradition
says that at one time he was so sore
iy beset that he was obliged to hide In
dog-kennel. It is pleasant to know
that he lived to repair The damage
done by his enemies. Abraham Clark
was one Of those who were eager for
independence, and he did all in his
power to secure 1t for his country
Francis Eopkfnson was fine student
and a member Of the first class that
the University Of Pennsylvania ever
graduated. No noisy fun for him, for
as DR.. Benjamin Rush quantity says of
him, "llis wit was mild and elegant
and Infused cheerfulness and spe-
eies of delicate JOY into the hearts of
Eli who heard it." Richard Stockton
was man of wealth, position and
culture He was born in the town
of Princeton, New Jersey, and he con-
eerred great favor on the college
there when he induced to come to this
country DR.. John Witherspoon, n
learned Scottish divine. DR.. WitheI-
spoon was the only clergyman to sign
the Declaration. He was the sixth
president of Princeton college, and d.
voted himself not only to the college,
but to the country of his adoption,
Tor it is said that he became an Ameri.
Fan and an ardent patriot as soon MS
he reached our shores.
Pennsylvania.
Pennsylvania sent more delegates
than any other colony-nine. Benja
min Franklin was the Oldest of all
the signers. We may be sure that
this truly great man was prominent
figure in that remarkable gathering.
Almost as notable was Robert Morris
the great financier of the revolution
Though he was slow at first to favor
independence, later he showed the
truest patriotism, for his financial aid
tided the young country over serious
difficulties. 'The Americans, says
pne historian, "owe as much acknowl
edgment to the financial operations o.
Robert Morris as to the negotiations
of Benjamin Franklin, or even to the
Hrms of Washington DR.. BENJAMIN
Rush may well be honored, for he was
physician of high standing; and II

Rover and Baby Ned We're great
friends. Babe and Rover loved each
other He was smart dog.
On summer days Rover and Babe
would go out under the shade trees,
and Babe would lay his head on Ro-

watch Babe so nothing would harm
him.
One day Babes father forgot to shut
the gate. Babe and Rover went out
into the woods to gather flowers. Babe
loved to see and play in the pond. So
Babe and Rover went up to the pond.

WHY ! LIKE THE 4TH OF JULY


We celebrate the Fourth of July here
about every other summer. My brother
was a year old the third of July: we
had a picnic two years ago the Fourth
and we shot f1recrackers and had a
fine time We had fireworks that made
the prettiest sight at night. We lit lots
of fireworks Saturday evening and lad
lots of fun. Sunday my aunt and Mrs.
Bonnet made up their minds they
would have picnic, and any one that
wanter to could go Ny sisters came
out Friday evening my brother TOOK
them home Sunday. They came to
stay the Fourth, and my sister had a
bunch of f1recrackers. We did not eel
citrate the Fourth this year. We cele-
brate the Fourth for the old soldiers
and the men that signed the Declare
ton of independence. F'irecrackers are
made Of powder and paper.

One day little Mary Brown was
down by the river playing. She was
throwing sticks in the river and let
ting her dog So after item. She would
throw a stick in the water and say
"Rover, go get me the stick" Rover
then would jump in the river and swim
very fast until he got the stick. Then
he would bring the stick to land and
lay it at Mary's feet. One day Mar!
was down by the river throwing sticks
in. She threw one in and it did not go
out far enough, so she stopped over to
pick it up. She fell in. Rover stood bat
a second. when he jumped in and
brought her safely to the bank. Mr..
Brown lived Closed to the river. Rover
ran to the house and barked until Mr.
Brown knew something was wrong.
He went and saw Mary lying on the
bank of the river and took her to the
house and tucked her snusly in bed:
Mr.. Brown then got Rover a new gold
collar, a reward from the Brown fam
lily.

into the woods they saw snake get
ting ready TO spring at them. Shep

A FAITHFUL COMPANION.

When my uncle Elmer was little
boy he had big red dog named Cap.
Wherever he went Cap went, and
wherever Cap went, he went.
One day when uncle was nine or ten
years old he thought he would go in
swimming in creek near by. Cap
went with him. Uncle was overcome
by cramps and if it hadn't been for
Cap he would have drowned. Cap lived
for great many years and when he
got old they had to kill him.

member of the continental congress.
In his own home he was always the
charming host, the bright and witty
companion, the self-forgetting friend
His more brilliant brother, Richarl
Henry Lee was so gifted an orator
that he was called ''the Cicero Of
America He was always eager for
complete independence. and so 1t Is
not to be wondered at that It was this
ardent patriot who was the first TO
propose that these united colonies
are, and of right ought to be, free and
independent states."a This WAS I'm
mediately seconded by that other ar
dent lover Of liberty, John Adams.
Jefferson alludes to Lee as eloquent,
bold and ever watchful at his post"
Chancellor George Wythe was fam
GUS figure in the early history of Vir-
ginia. He was born to wealth, he was
finely educated, and in time he won
high distinction at the bar. But to-
day he is recalled as the wise teacher
Of Thomas Jefferson Both master
and pupil signed the great document
In thinking Of the Declaration, one
name always stands out like a great
mountain peak, towering above all
others-the name of Thomas Jeffar-
son; for it was this gifted man who
drew up the document, and he did 1t
with such skill that hardly word of
1t was changed. AS Richard Henry
Lee was the first to make a motion
suggesting independence it would
have been the usual and courteous
thing to make him chairman Of the
committee to draw up the document.
But Lee was suddenly recalled to his
Virginia home, and so 1t seemed only
fair to assign the delicate task to some
other delegate from the same colony.
Jefferson was no orator, but he had IL
ready earned an enviable reputation
as a writer of important state docu-
ments. So to him was assigned the
delicate but momentous task How
well he performed we may know from
the fact that his four associates could
suggest only a very few changes.
Many Of the signers reached high
Offices in the young republic. Many
became governors of the new states,
and two were elevated to the presi-
dency, Jefferson and John Adams. One
truly remarkable fact may be recalled
in connection with these two, namely
that both men died on the same day;
and, what was still more remarkable,
they died just fifty years to a day
after the united colonies were de-
clared Independent. namely, on July
4, 1926. And when they passed away
there was but one signer living, the
venerable Charles Carroll Of Carroll
ton, who survived Jefferson and Adams
for six years, for he lived to be nine
ty-six years old.
And who shall describe the actual
signing of the great document. We
can imagine these fine and courtly
gentlemen going, one by one, to the
broad table which may be seen today
in independence Hall. William I'll
lery, one of the Rhode Island dele
gates, afterward declared. 81 placed
myself beside the secretary and eyed
each closely as he affixed his name
to the document. Undaunted resolu-
ton was displayed in every counter
ance" 1t was, indeed. the proudest
moment in the lives Of these fearless
men who, believing in the righteous
ness Of their cause, hazarded lives and
fortunes in the great name of Liberty.
