Dorothy Cook on the Last
Day of Her School

Dear Juniors:-I will write about
my school.
My school was out the End of March.
We had big dinner the last day and
we had big program. We had forty
three pieces, four dialogues and three
songs. There was large crowd there.
We had dinner first and after dinner
we spoke pieces and had dialogues and
sang songs. I guess our program was
about two hours long. We had fine
music too. Irwin Shepard played the
organ and Wardie Hawkins played the
violin.
After our program and music we
came home and Miss David Eakins,
Miss Nellie Heckart and Glen Albright
came down to our house and stayed
until time for church at night and
went to church at Midway.
This is the end of that day. So as
my letter is getting long I will close.

The Life of Washington
BY Lula McCarr0ll
Dear Juniors:

Dear Juniors:
On the bank Of the Patomic river in
the state Of Virginia, there once stood
a little wooden farm house. 1t had
deep sloping roof. One day In February
1882 there came little baby boy to
this house whose name was George
Washington. He had two half brothers.
Their names were Lawrence and Aug
Justine One fine morning in spring
when George was about three years old
some leaves were burning near the
house. A spark flew and lit on the roof
and was burning. Little George saw the
fire and run in to tell his mother. His
father was not at home. Mrs. Washing
ton and the children went to carrying
GU the furniture. They could not put
the fire out. In few minutes the house
was burned to ashes. Several miles
away on the Rappahanock river Mr..
Washington owned another plantation.
He moved to this plantation instead of
building a new house. The new house
In which he moved was much like the
old one. They had no carpet In the
house and very little furniture. But to
be sure they had plenty to eat. The
children had no play toys. Mr.. and Mrs.
Washington wished their children to be
true and brave. George learned 1t was
a sin to tell a lie. When George was
eight years old he was given pony.
It's name was Hero.

Lucille Armstrong Tells of
the Narrow Escape
She Had

Dear Juniors: . ~
AS, I saw in the Courier Junior you
were going to have True Story
About Myself contest I thought I
would write story:
When I was about flve years old my
father was pumping water with a
team and was running around behind
the tongue and somehow, but I don't
remember, I got caught and was
twisted up and was hurt SO bad it al
most killed me. I will tell you how it
was: Papa would hitch the horse up
and then go on with his work, so
when I got fast there was no one there
to stop the horse. so just kept getting
squeezed tighter all the time and
when mamma saw me she came as
fast as she could and stopped the
horse, and then took me in the house
and called the doctor, and I'm all right
now. Mamma says she cannot bear to
think about it.

Abraham Lincoln - School
Composition - By Mary
4 Williams

Once there was a little boy whose
name was Abraham Lincoln. He was a
poor boy But he was very fond of
reading good books. And did not have
time to read except at night. One day
he borrowed a book about George
Washington and one night he put the
book in the corner Of H. the wall, and
what do you think-when he reached
out to get the book 1t had showed dur
ing the night and the book was wet
and soiled. He arose, dressed and took
the book to it's owner.
The owner Of the book said If he
would pull corn fodder for three days
he could have the book for his own. 1t
was very cold but he did not mind that
because he would get to keep the book.
He always said that the soiled book
helped him to become president OF the
United States.
