SOME POSTAL STORIES.

Dear Editor.-Not long ago you sent
me five very pretty postals, but as ]
was busy with my school studies l
didn't write about them.
One Of them is q picture Of Bunker
Fill Monument" 1t was built in 1924.
Another of the postals is a picture Of
the Statue Of Frederick the Great. :"
It occupies a place in the grounds OF
the war college at Washington. In Ber-
lin, Germany, there Is q statue that is
like the statue of Frederick the Great.
Another of the postals is picture Of
the Morgan monument. This monu.
ment is in Spartanburg, S. G.
'sThe Fairy Bower" is another Of thu
postals. On the back it says: ''Tha
Fairy Bower is portion Of the popu.
lar resort of Manly, situated seven
miles from Sydney. The beach at Fairy
Bower is separate from that Of Manly
and is very pretty. Oysters may be
gathered on the rocks which fringe
the shore at low tide" Along the shore
of the river are some eucalyptus trees
and the setting sun is shining through
them.
The other one is picture Of Oxford
st. Mary's spire.
All of these postals are very pretty
and | thank you very much for them,
likewise the Good Luck bank, which !
think is very cute.

WINlFRED's HUNTING TRIP

Dear Juniors.1-I am going to write
about my hunting trip. Last Saturday
l went hunting with Ray. Clarence and
Francis. We had bows and arrows and
a dog. We had good time. We went
through the big meadow and then We
went across the road, through another
meadow and down the creek and up
through cornfield.' Then we went
through a grassy place. We saw rab-
bit, too. Then down another creek we
saw another rabbit and Spot started
after 1t with me right behind him, run
ming as fast as could, but I could not
go fast enough to catch It,
Then we came to q haystack, Clar.
ence and i stopped to rest. Francis,
and Ray went on. They saw another
rabbit. They came back and told Clar-
ence and to come and go with, them.
Francis took lunch and we went
into meadow and ate it. We had
chicken, bread and potatoes. We wera
tired and hungry. It tasted awful good.
We gave Spot drink, then we went
down the road to Rays house. We
played there until evening, then we
went home. We had lots of fun. II

THE DIAMOND.

The diamond is the most valuable Of
stones For many years India furnish
ed the worlds supply. In 1877 dia-
monds were found in Brazil and in
1857 they were found In South Africa,
hence this has become the greatest
diamond field Of the world. Australia
and North America also furnish dia-
monds but quite limited. The diamond
stone is usually found in the sand or
gravel along a river and is often Of q
dull lead color but when dressed out
has brilliancy unequaled by any other
stone, and no other stone will equal it
for hardness. It II usually clear ana
transparent, yet very often 1t Is color
ed. For many centuries the diamond
stone has been the principal ornament
for the CROWNS Of kinds and queens as
they are SO brilliant and valuable the
crowns are the most highly esteemed.
The diamond is also used as sets for
rings, breaches, and in many other
ways but usually as an ornament in
some form. One Of the most valuable
of diamonds was found by a native In
the river Bogagem which was after
wards sold for 100000. The largest dia-
mond ever found In North America
came from Manchester, Virginia

THE HISTORY OF a PIN.

My first recollection in life was
when was dug out Of the ground by a
colored man. Some zinc was then
mixed with me. was then passed be-
tween rollers which were to make me
brittle. Then the rollers were loosened
by heat and slow cooling several times
until had become a thin sheet Of
copper and zinc. When I had reached
the required thickness / was passed
through Sitting rolls which sliced me
up into rods one-eighth of an inch
square. Then l was drawn into wire
then one of my ends was made point
ed so that 1t would go through a
round hole in the steel draw plate. a
pair of powerful nippers grasped the
pointed end of the rod. l went through
q round hole and came out round
wire. Then the wire was annealed, then
drawn through another hole much
smaller than the first. / was put into
this hole again and again until be-
came the the proper shape. The metal
though somewhat stiff, is too soft to
spring out straight said the man.
was soon finished then was sold TO
some store. From there l was sold to-
q very poor woman who took me
home. was given to one Of the little
girls to pick splinter out Of her
hand. Then she put me in her dress
and while drawing a bucket Of water
fell in and thus ended my life.

The Carpenter

I thought could saw, and thought l
could plane,
And I thought was clever withnails,
And mended chair Though it's bro
ken again).
And / once made a couple Of balls.
But directly the carpenter came to our
house
To put up some shelves in the hall,
And sat by his side, Just as still as a
mouse,
knew l knew nothing at all.
He measured each part with the great
est Of care,
"a foot rules thing don't use).
He labored to make the joints perfect
ly square,
And he always bored holes for the
screws.
Now it's all very well to 60 hammer
ing round,
And to look on tool chest as fun;
But in future my carpenter work shall
be sound,
And done once for all, If it's done.

GOLD.

Dear Editor-As have never writ
ten to the Courier Junior before l
thought would try and write on the
subject OF gold.
Gold Is very useful mineral. 1t IL
used in making money, rings, bracelets
and many other kinds OF jewelry.
It is dug from the earth and Is In
rocks. The rocks crack and when It
rains the water runs into the rock
On the inside Of the rocks 1t Is SO
hot that It heats the water and causes
the gold to melt, then 1t runs out on
the rock and Is mixed with the sand
and is cooled in large Jumps.
When this country was first settled
by the white men, man by the name
Of James Marshall was travelling
through California. AS he was walking
along he noticed something bright He
stopped and picked it up. The news
spread very rapidly that gold had been
found in California.
AS soon as the people heard it they
left their homes and started for Cali

A WHITE CAT

We once had a white cat. MY grand
ma gave her to us. She was all white
except a small black spot on her side
aId black tail. We called her White.
When she was a little kitten her moth
er got poisoned and died. White got
sick too but we gave her some med1-
cine and she got well.
One day when she was about two
years old, while she was out hunting
for mice, snake bit her. Her jaw
sWelled up and we wondered what
was the matter with her. After while
her jaw and throat swelled up SO bad
that she could not eat. We then found
the sore on her jaw, but she was so far
gone that we could not save her, and
that same day she died.

GATHERING AUTUMN LEAVES.

Little Maggie sat in the dreary cot
tage trying to sew on a ragged dress
that looked as though it couldn't be
mended. Just then she glanced out Of
the window and saw some children
who were coming in the gate. They
came in and It was 8 Of her little
friends whose names were Cora and
Tom Brooks, Bernice and Malcolm
Storms, Sylvia and Margaret and Don
Butler and Rose White. Maggie had
fallen down stairs when small. 1t had
caused her to be cripple. Maggie and
her mother were very poor and her
mother sewed for a living. Her father
had died when she was small. The
children said: Maggie. can you go
morrow" Maggie said: Il do not
know until mother comes Just then
Mrs. Morris came in. ooh, Mrs. Nor
ris," said the eager voices OF the chill
dren, MAY Maggie go with us tomor-
row." "Where?" said Mrs Morris ITO

We will take her in little wagon
Yes. she may CO." said her mother.
AS the children were starting to go
home Rose White told Mrs. Morris not
to fix any dinner for Maggie as they
would fix 1t all.
The next morning the children
started. It was very nice morning
and the sun was shining brightly. Soon
they were In the woods gathering
leaves. The leaves were red and yellow
and green and all were very pretty.
But the girls though 1t was time to
spread their lunch. Their lunch con-
sisted Of chicken, pickles. sandwiches,
and cake and oranges and bananas.
They gathered leaves all afternoon
When they went home they all de-
clared they had splendid time.

think it is lots of fun to run and
play in the leaves. We have fun at
school when we see the leaves falling
from the trees. We all run and see If
we can catch them before they touch

them on each other. When was about

FALL BIRDS.

First is the crow. AS soon as 1t be.
ings to be fall you can see the crows
flying around and saying Cav, Cav"
They light in trees and then fly away
and light on the ground and walk
around hunting something to eat.
Next Is the blackbird, which comes
in droves. They is so many sometimes
that they make a big black streak in
the sky. One might call the wild
ducks and the wild geese fall bfrda
also as they begin to come south when
it begins to get cold up north.

THE FIRST STEAMBOAT.

The first steamboat was built in
New York. 1t was named the Clermont
When the people saw it they laughed
and said that such boat as that could
never go.
For thousands Of years boatmen had
made their boats go by using sails or.
oars.
People had never seen such boat
that a boat could move by using
steam.
When the time came for Fulton to
start his boat, people crowded around
to see it start. The smoke began to roll
out of the smoke stack. Everyone waa
sure that it would not go. At last the
wheels began to turn, and sure enough,
the boat was moving, faster and faster
it went
The people did not laugh any longer,
but began to cheer. The little steam
boat ran up to Albany. The people who
lived on the river didn't know what to
make Of such boat. Fulton's boat had
passed many sailing vessels at night.
The people became frightened and
ran into their cabins. They were afraid
when they saw the smoke and heard
the sound of the steam. 1t seemed
dreadful to them.
The sailors went down stairs in the
ships through fear.
Perhaps they thought 1t was large
sea monster which would eat them.
But there were many steamships on
the sea afterward.
