MAN STOLE BAIT

Dear Aunt Laurie:
One morning before 1 was up someone
came to our door and knocked. | was
the only one there, so l got up. At
first | thought it was some woman, but
| was surprised when | found that it
was my friend Tom Tom wanted me
to go out to the old farm and stay a
month.
/ could hardly wait to get out there,
for l hadn't been there for a long
time Tom stayed all night with me
and we went the next day.
Early in the morning we started to
pick every apple or peach we saw. We
also went in swimming in a lake
near by. Then we had a good dinner.
After dinner we looked about the
farm. for I wanted to get acquainted
with all the animals.
In the afternoon we went out in the
field and picked watermelons and ate
them. When we went back to the
house we went through the corral
where all the cows We're. We We're
about in the middle when a COW started
after us. We could hardly run, we had
eaten so much
Tom jumped through the fence and
/ jumped upon the manger but fell
though, for we were having so much
fun.
/ got little braver after few days
and ventured in the pigpen.
l got on one of the pigs and had a
good ride, but l did not care for an
other one. One afternoon we went
fishing down to the lake. We took two
horses and started. They went all right
till they got frightened at a scarecrow
and dumped us in a puddle.
When we started to fish man came
up and stole our bait / did not see
him, for l thought 1 had a big fish.
but when l got it out it was only a
pair of overalls. RAY MCCLURE.

while all about from the surrounding
rolling hills rises the fragrant odor of
alfalfa.
Upon this farm lives my auntie,
uncle and cousin, thee latter boy
about my own age. My uncle now and
then buys new land and puts it under
cultivation of alfalfa. He has now
over $50 acres.
One day my cousin suggested that
we go rabbit hunting in the canyon
at the foot of the nearby hills. This
canyon is small but thickly wooded
and the abode of many animals, among
them the rabbit. A small stream runs
in the bottom, but was nearly dry at
the time / was there was the hottest
of summer. We killed a number of
rabbits and arrived home in time to
see the milking of the cows.
Suddenly one of the hogs escaped
from the pen at the side of the barn
and ran out into the yard. Up jumped
Tony, a little fox terrier, who was ly-
ing asleep with one eye open. With a
grunt the hog ran over to a corner
and turned the dog stopped, gave two
or three sharp barks, then lay down,
intending to keep the hog a prisoner
1T was some time before we managed
to get the hog back into the pen.
Time passed and l had to go back
to the city, but shall never forget my
vacation on the old farm.

FOUND A LITTLE KITTEN

Dear Aunt Laurie:
"Oh, mother, in our Sunday school
class | was the one who had known
my lesson best for six weeks! What
do you think l got for it?" said Edith
Manser one May afternoon.
well, l don't know" said her
mother.
'I'm going to get visit to the old
farm for a week with Mrs. Ross, my
teacher. Can / go, please?"
why, of course" said Mrs. Manser.
'I will have to go in June" said
Edith, "and 1 am going to stay
week"
The day came and Edith got up
early to get ready. Soon her teacher
came and got her. They had long
ride in the cars.
An old lady named Mrs. Deacon
met them at the station.
AS soon as Edith got her things
off she ran and played with the cat.
The next day Edith thought that
she would look for the cat, but could
not find her. She looked in the hay
and what did she see but dear little
baby kittens, She ran and told Mrs.
Deacon.
"That is very NICE" said Mrs. Dea-
con.
Edith weht to see them every day
and they soon were grown up. Mrs.
Deacon said that she could have one
to keep. Edith chose a brown one.
She called 1t Nellie.
Nellie grew to be very fond of her
mistress. Once Edith could not find
her kitten. She looked all over for
it. She went into her bedroom and
found it lying asleep on the bed.
The week soon ended and Edith and
Mrs Ross went home. Edith thanked
Mrs Deacon for her visit. Mrs Dea-
con told them to come again. Edith
and her cat became very good friends.

THE PoSToFFIcE

The postoffice department of the
United States is the largest business
enterprise in the world, in the expen-
ditures involved, the number of per-
sons employed and the service rem
dered.
There are many things about it Of
peculiar interest During the nine
teenth century, and up to the present
time, it has doubled it's business once
every ten years, except in two of the
decades. This fact in itself is deeply
significant. 1t necessitates methods of
management which can expand with
equal rapidity, and they, in turn, re-
quire change as well as growth. No
other business offers such problem;
nor is the end even in sight SO long
as population increases.
There are many reasons why the
postoffice department is just now a
subject of. serious study. 1t has al
Ways been conducted at a loss. 1t
has long been considered that this
would gradually be reduced in amount,
until it should finally disappear. The
facts, however, have not justified this
belief. The ten-year doubling of the
business has been accompanied by eX-
penditures which have somewhat more
than doubled during the same periods.
That is not in accordance with the ex-
perience of the most successful private
commercial enterprises, in which an
increase of one-tenth in the number
of employees is often sufficient to care
for twofold increase of business.
1t is probable that the next few years
may see radical changes in postoftce
organization and management. They
are likely to include divisional sys-
tenn and a permanent superintendent.

LETTERS TO AUNT LAURIE
FROM NEPHEWS AND NIECES
Continued from Page sl1)

Aunt Minnie told Opal to go and get
her wax doll out of the playhouse.
There was a little creek running be-
tween the house and our playhouse.
When Opal got out there she thought
she would make her mother come out.
So she cried out (as she was fond Of
using big Words:
oh mamma, come here quick; here
is a walrus of a numerous siZe!'
When her mother came outside she
went up to Opal and said, Il never
knew my little girl was so bad as to
stand right up and tell me a false
hood
Then Opal said Mamma, you must
not say l was bad girl, but a naughty
girl"
Then her mother went into the house
and left Opal and me by ourselves.
That afternoon Opal went in the house
and came back with some cake.
She then said, HSee what mamma
gave us for our playhouse"
After we had played for about ten
minutes Opal wanted to have me to
be her baby, but l told her / was too
big for her to rock. So she said she
would be my little baby.

kinds and have plenty of butter.

because you can raise anything you
want and can have more fun.

ago, but it was so changed and so
different that l hardly knew it,
My brother and / were nerding cows
one evening. My horse, named Tom,
was large and gentle and black My
brother and 1 were riding on his back
together. Tom was running with all
his might and he fell with us on his
back.
He threw us over his back head first.

brother. He was unconscious
After while when he awoke he found
himself in the house and in bed.

SLID DOWN HAYsT. OK

Dear Aunt Laurie:
One summer L went to visit my
grandfather's farm. He had five COWS,
three horses and about 500 little chick
ems l had fine times sliding down the
tall haystacks and gathering the eggs.
Grandpa gave me little black pony
and / called him Black Beauty.
Grandpas birthday came while I
was out there. 1 gave him memory
book and grandma made him a large
cake and put sixty-five candles on it.
My cousins found some wild honey
and brought it home. They became
very sick. Grandma gave them some
sweet milk and they got better. We
were afraid the honey was poisoned
and threw it away.
One night a party of young people
went for a hayride. We had nice
time, but l fell asleep before we
reached home.
When it was time for me to go home
l took many happy remembrances back
with me. Your niece,
