some SHORT STORIES BY YOUNG JUNIOR WRITER'S

You are a very greedy horsey" she
said, pulling the reins. Come, now
let's have a gallop. But whoal Oh
Brownie, there's soldiers coming UP the
road. Come, we will stand aside until
they pass, They seem in a hurry,
don't they? There's General Washing
ton on that white horse. How splendid
he looks. though he is stern and anx-
ious looking oh, Brownie, if only
were boyw
The soldiers passed and Virginia and
her pony came from the side of the
road.
Get up, Brownie. whoar' she
shouted, pulling the lines, for she
nearly ran over something-yes, it was
a soldier
Il beg your pardon" she stammered.
4 was thinking so hard 1 didn't see
you. What's the matter2"
i broke my ankle and I can't go on
without a horse" he said. Caesar, my
horse, broke his leg a way back, and
he fell on my foot before 1 could get it
from the stirrup. 1 had to leave him
there, poor fellow, and come on the
best way could. If only my ankle
were all right / could go on"
I'm sorry" said Virginia why
didn't some one offer you a horse?
Soldiers often fall, but the others
can't wait. Washington is in a hurry
today, for I think he expects to meet
the British soon. Do you know any
place ] could get a horse?"
Yes" said Virginia, alighting. Take
my horse. / was wishing to go to war
today, but since 1 can't I'll send
Brownie. Don't stop me or I may
change my mind. Hurry and catch up
with the army. Be good to my horse
Goodby Brownie" and she hurried
away, only once turning around to see
the soldier drag himself into the saddle
and gallop away.
Poor Brownie. You'll be killed in
some dreadful battle, but you couldn't
die in better cause" she said.
Afterward, when the star spangled
banner waved proudly over the land,
she was glad she had done something,
though small. for Old Glory.

I found him sitting on a rose;
He was so fine and small
'Tis almost to exaggerate
TO say he was, at all.
He stood and tilted on my hand;
He stepped as IL he thought;
His tiny sails OF white and blue,
or sheerest fancy wrought
He raised and famed and famed again,
And still he would not 60
The common air was all too rough
To trust his shallop to.

And on the breathing OF the rose

All right, Rastus," nodded Virginia
to the colored boy as she came up the
walk, ready for her morning ride.
