The Fairies Home
BY HELEN MAHER,
Age IL Years, San Rafael

In the midst of very large forest
there was but one place that was
clear Of trees. In this palace there was
small, deep pool.
No one could imagine why pool
should be in such a place. But the
fairies of the forest knew.
When this band of fairies, which
was called the silver winged band"
first came to this forest they knew
that they must have pool to play in,
because when they once had come here
they had decided not to go out of the
forest except at night.
The fairies were now wandering
around at the bottom of the pool adj
miring their home
The rooms were numerous, but were
no larger than a school desk. Beautiful
butterfly wing curtains separated them
from each other. The beds were made
of the finest down, with finely spun
spreads over them.
fairy said that dinner would now be
served.
The fairies had small tables and all
modern improvements, because they
had watched the people on the earth
and had copied them as nearly as their
powers permitted.
The tables were pieces of mahogany
bark held up with small silver pegs.
The food was the best that could
be made, and consisted of clover leaves
cut up fine with spider gravy. The

by ALICE ToFr, MOUNTAIN VIEW

Marian was startled by the rustic of
bushes and, looking up she saw a girl
or about her own age. She had on
red dress and an immense hat.
Have you seen anything of some
sheep which have Iost?" said the little
girl.
why, l believe you are Bo-Peep"
exclaimed Marian. II read about you
in the rhyme book"
MY name is Bo-Peep, all right. But
have you seen my Sheep"
mo, / have not" said Marian. I'm
sorry you have lost them. The rhyme
book says that if you leave them alone
they will come home wagging their
tails behind them"
II know" said Bo-Peep. That's what
every one says but / never pay any at
tention to them any more. AS they
didn't come home, Mother Goose ad-
vised me to search for them. Well I
must CO."
"Oh, Bo-Peep, do let me help you
search for a little while You know
Yankees are fine detectives, and / am
a Yankee"
I'm only too glad to have your COM
pany, Marian. Well, we must hurry
along now. ! must find my sheep"
How did you lose your Sheep" asked
Marian.
Mother Goose asked the Little Boy
Blue to bring them home from pasture
as 1 did not feel very well. He went to
sleep under a haystack and the sheep
wandered away"
ooh, how careless" said Marian.
But, see, Bo-Peep, that cave. 1t has
King Shepherd on the door. If he is a
shepherd he ought to know something
about sheep Let us go in and ask him.
You knock at the door, Bo-Peep."
Bo-Peep did so. A servant opened
the door.

other things that were eaten were but
terhy butter on frogs toes, toasted
spider flesh, fresh mosquito eggs and
chipmunk ears. The last mentioned
were considered delicacy.
AS soon as the fairies had finished
their meal each one went to his bed
and lay down for a nap.
They slept until nightfall, when they
put on their cocoon cloaks and went
up to the earth to visit. At o'clock
in the morning they started for home,
and when there told of their doings on

Willie Wrinkles Drive

Willie Wrinkle drives his horses
over hill and over dale,
Never stops for flood or fire
When he's going for the mail
Though the way be long and dreary
Willie's spirit never flags;
All his thought is for his horses
And the safety of his bags.
When at last his journeys ended
All the mail that he has brought
Willie runs and gives to mother
AS a good mail carrier ought.
Then the fiery steeds and driver
Like flash are off once more;
But with all their speed they never
Get beyond the nursery door.
