a LITTLE girl ran away from
~ school the other day and
tried to kill herself be-
cause the girl who sat in front of
her shifted when the teacher
asked what the little girl in the
back seat was called.
Il don't know her name" said
the little girl in front. II never
met her" And she tossed her
silly little added pate into the
air, and looked as scornful as she
conveniently could. All the other
girls Uttered and the boys
grinned. and the little girl in the
back seat simply couldn't stand it
another day, so she ran away and
went and walked into a pond and
tried to drown.
When they carried her home
her mother found out all about
what a bad time she'd been hav-
ing at school, so she kept her at
home a few days and then sent
her to another school, where the
girls weren't such geese, or at
least where they didn't dare to
show it if they were.
BY this time the girl is probably
very happy. Perhaps she is even
turning up her small nose herself
and saying that she hasn't met"
some harmless creatures in braids
and short skirty coats.
What troublous times they are
going through, some of these
children we know, right now. in
the beginning of the new school

YOU saw somone looking at those

who raised his hand and wanted
to know whose hair was the red

the last row?

It was resolved to institute concerts

The results of the observations made
established the fact that disconnected
tones on stringed instruments Created
no effect upon horses beyond causing
some Of the animals to manifest signs
of impatience, but when melody was
played the horses turned toward the
players, pricked up their ears and
showed plainly the pleasure they e1ss-

Cricket of Enuiish Birth.

Cricket is the national game of Eng.

Coli is popularity supposed to have
had its origin in Scotland. but there
seems to be good reason for believing
that it came from Holland. The name
itself Is undoubtedly Of German or
Dutch extraction, and an enactment

1918, refers to'a considerable tmporta-
