Chippy's Happy Days
Composition by Verna

Dear Editor:-I thought would
write composition. I had to write
III school. The name of it is, Chip
py's Happy Days"
Chippy was little squirrel born in
a beautiful wood. He was a merry
little chippy Of an adventurous dis
position, and being somewhat unmind-
ful OF parental authority, he paid the
penalty OF his rashness by being cap
tured one bright morning by sharp
young fellow, who had come up the
lake with boating party.
This will just do for Jenhie," he
said. "She Is a great girl for pets,
and real live chippy will do her i'm
mensely"
Poor Chippy was put into an empty
picnic basket where all was dark and
gloomy And there he had to stay till
the.next morning. 1t seemed ages to
him, did this brief Imprisonment, and
when he was released, it was only to
be put into wire cage.
Where there were not room to
stretch himself much less to run at
will, as he had done in his native for
est. Still though he never was again
to know the freedom Of the forest
and the woods. there were happy days
in store for him. N
Jennie was exceedingly kind to him.
She brought him nuts and berries, and
he would sit on Jennie's lap by the
hour.
These were Chippys happy days.
One day the cage being left open, he
ventured into garden where cat
pounoed upon him. Jennie cried as
her heart would break.
Poor Chippy was stuffed and Jennie
a little rockery in the corner of her
bedroom, and there upon It's summit,
poor Chippy sits, holding In his hand
the nut he can never break.

HE IL q perfect stranger at the

Louise was slowly recovering from q

Accordingly Jimmy started with the

the outer door.
"Oh, 90 do II" agreed Louise. Poor

In the next cottake the children were
making popcorn balls. They presented
Jimmy with one for himself and one
for his Aster, but no one had seen the
Kitten.
The Henderson family were eating
oranges when Jimmy raped at their
door. They gave him big orange and
were so sorry they knew nothing Of

Norton. offered him . candy cat, pure

that to his sister, Jimmy ran home 80

When that snal1 boy reached home,
laughing and breathless, he found the

Louise and Her Fairy God
mOther-Helen Brewer

Louise was very pretty. She had
raven black hair which was wavy. Her
eyes were black and her skin pure
white.
Now Louises mother had died when
she was eight years old. They were
poor and could just barely live and
that was all.
One day when Louise was lamenting
over her fate and wishing somebody
loved her, she feltSa soft hand on her
head and kind voice saying, II love
you dear, do not cry it will end all
right. First let us clean house" "All
right" said the poor girl. DO you
know who ann" asked the owner OF
the soft voice and hand. NO." said
Louise. "Well am your fairy god
mother" said the strange person.
"Oh!" said Louise. -
They then cleaned house. In one
hour the house was shining.
The godmother had made the cur.
tains, rugs, and chairs look like new.
They then got dinner. Such q deli
cious dinner. The gcdmother then dis
appeared but left a happy girl. Then
the father appeared, and he had. a
surrise too. He had gone on a trip for
his employer on which he had made
for himself $4,000 by selling some in
terests in an invention for which his
employer had given him $500 and
raised his wages.
So It ended happily after all. Louise
called on her godmother once IN
awhile for little things but never
lamented on her fate again.
She won friends everywhere by her
goud cheer.
