Helena, Mont, Nov. IS, 1909
Aunt Busy of The Intermountain Catholic, Salt
Lake City, Utah:
Dear Aunt Busy: Becoming interested in vour
corner in The Intermountain Catholic for girls and
boys, l have put forth my efforts in the compost
lion of the accompanying story "Origin of Suns
Eclipse which / would like to see published in your
corner if you find it worthy of acceptance. Sin
cerely yours, AGNES L. FLYNN.
ORIGIN OF THE SUMS ECLIPSE.
Many years ago when the gods were said to have
ruled the world, there lived in the city of Rome a
very discontinued child called Orbes She was
never through complaining. If her breakfast was
nice and hot and everything fixed nice so as to
please any other little girl, Orbes would find fault
and say very naughty things to her poor mamma
who tried hard to please her contrary little child,
One day the teacher asked little Orbes to ac-
company him and the other little pupils on pic
ME which was to be given in one of the prettiest
spots of Rome.
On reaching the place Orbes after complaining
about being SO tired and the place so homely. be-
gan to murnur against the sun. ooh dearr' she
exclaimed, Il do wish that sun would not shine so
bright. for it makes me so uncomfortable that 7
Just can't enjoy myself, and it hurts my ewes. TOO
Just wish 1t would fall out of the sky and not he
seen again"
The sun. who listening to this. felt very
angry towards the little girl for he knew the world
could not get along without him. and he knew how
wei lothers appreciated him, and Just to show her
no Unnecessary his services were he hid behind
dark cloud, which then passing by. But the liz
tie girl was glad and shouted: e'Now I can breathe
little freely, and it seems good not to have ones
head burned off if they go outside"
