She was given to me when she was
about month old. She was a play

her.
When about six months old she got
lost. Now, boys and girls, don't think
this is make believe" story, for 1t
is true one. Well, one night we left
the door open that led under the steps
to the gas meter. Kitty found the
open door, and went In it under the
steps. She discovered n hole that ran
up under thes steps. She decided 10
climb UP 1t and see what was up there
and she climbed and climbed and
climbed, until she reached the top of
the stairs. This was not the end. how
ever, for 1t ran between the floors and
walls of the whole house. Kitty
walked on and on, through the night
between the walls. The next morning
hunted for her, but could not find her.
All heard was faint meow" Ny
father guessed at once where she was,
but did not know how to get her out.
The first thing to be done was to take
w part OF the floor In one of the
rooms from whence the sound seemed
to come, which we did. but no kitty
was to be found Then it seemed as
II she was between the weather.

we took a part of the weatherboards

OLD GLORY.

Long, long ago there were many
flags In the American colonies. The
most famous OF them was the one
raised over the camp at Cambridge
January 2, i1T6. a similar flag fionted
from tho slip of John Paul Jones.
The first real American. though. was
the one chosen by Congress ut PhiIa :
delphia June IA, 1777. This repre-
scented tho. thirteen. States by thirteen
stripes OF red and white and thirteen
white stars in. blue background. "Old
Glory" waved over our land long be-
fore Great Britain, Germany, France
or Spain possessed national flags.
1t is generally supposed that Mrs.
Elizabeth Ross. better known as
Betsy Rose" planned and made the
first flag. of this sort. AT any rate. or
account of her patriotism and loyalty
to her country. she was engaged by
making. To keep this flag flying cost
the nation many brave men.
Congress at first thought of placing
n star and stripe for every new State.
but finally decided to let the thirteen
stripes represent the thirteen original
colonies and put star for each ad-
ditional State. There are now forty
eight States In all. On the govern
ment buildings and public schools
throughout the land rise masts from
which floats the best emblem. our
flag. Our hearts cry out. Three
cheers for the red, white and blue
which means, be brave, pure and true.

a GEORGIA THANKSGIVING.

Thanksgiving two years ago was a
very beautiful one to remember.
was then living in little town in
Georgia called Dublin, not far from
the capital.
We had very faithful old janitor at
school. Our teacher asked all of us
to bring something for him, which we
all did
Our school had n very large music
room. with blackboards on the walls.
Each grade was given a section to
decorate for Thanksgiving One board
had n picture OF n Pilgrim and Ply
mouth Rock, on which the Pilgrims
stepped SO long ago. Ours had a pic
ture of two little Dutch children say
ing grace over their morning meal.
This picture helped to draw.
Then large table was placed in
the centre OF the room, which was to
hold things which the children should
give to the poor of the town. All gave
freely. l wish you could have seen
that table after the things had been
placed. There was nothing except eat
ables. and 1t made pretty sight.
Many people assisted in carrying the
things to the people. This was the
day before Thanksgiving.
We were, of course, given a holiday
next day. Then something very sur
prising happened to this little South
ern town-it showed. We children
snowballed every one who passed
don't believe that there was a person
In the. town who did not have fine
Thanksgiving dinner or day
i also believe that every one was
happy, because he had helped some one
In need.
