BOBBIE, THE TRUANT.

Dear Little Men and Little Women:
went out with my father the other day to
visit the district schools He is truant Of
fcer. At one school the teacher told us
that there was a little boy named Bobbie,
about seven years old who never came to
school. We tied the horse and went away
into the woods where Bob lived. We found
his home TO be a little house. and his
father, who was there. told us he and Bob
lived all alone but Bob ran away every
day and would not go To school. He was
very nice old man. and said he would fix
up Bobbie's luncheon and send him to
school, but he would go of in the woods
The old man felt very badly about il. We
then started TO look for Bob We walked
all around. calling. and drove up the road
to a neighbor's house, where we were told
he stayed but he did not seem 20 be there.
Ny father heard a noise under the porch
after a few minutes. and he called, but
did not receive any answer. But, as he
thought he saw something move, he
crawled under and pulled out Bob. He
had long, light curly hair. which stuck
out from under a mans big felt hat. wore
a log coat and large felt boots, and in
one hand carried hts lunch box, while un-
der his other arm he held small yellow
dog He was frightened AT first, but began
TO talk as we were taking him home In our
wagon | asked him why he didn't like 10
go TO school, and he said he did like 10.
and liked everything but the color Of the
schoolhouse. We talked to him a while,
and then he promised to go 10 school every

Mrs. Burns had provided some profess

Then children from the Second avenue
branch gave little fairy play, all about a
prince who found a lovely princess sleep

part with spirit, but the prince, Charles
