sic Fariser. We visited a great many
other cousins-Aunt Cassie Clingmans

time with my cousins. The day before
we started for home we enjoyed a
fine Clingman picnic dinner and the
day was spent in visiting and fishing
and bathing on Bean Creek. That is
the boyhood home of my Grandpa
Clingman. We started for our home,
Dutton, Michigan, after stay of two
weeks. Sorry we couldn't stay longer.
Sometime l wish we could take trip

TOM THUMB.
By william Drenten.

Once upon time there was fam
lily without any children; so once there
was a man who came there and asked
what the poor people wanted. They
said: eff we could only have child
as big as our thumb we would be hap
py." Then the man went away and
asked fairy if she would help him
, find boy as large as his thumb;
and then they went and found boy
and the fairy named him Tom Thumb
because he was so little. So one day
his mother was making some pudding
and he climbed up the side of the bowl
and fell in. He was so little that his
mother didn't notice him. She put
the pudding on the stove to cook and
Tom got so warm that he began to
kick and holler. His mother thought
the pudding was bewitched so she
gave it to the tinker going by the
house, and he heard the kicking and
hollering and he threw it away and
Tom jumped out and went home and
his mother tied him up to a thistle
so he would not run away. A COW
came and ate the thistle and Tom
was in her mouth and he began to
kick and scramble in the cows mouth.
The cow let him out and he ran until
he came to giant and he climbed
up the giants sleeve. This tickled
the giant so much that he threw Tom
away out in the lake and Tom was
swallowed by a fish. A man came
and caught the fish and took him to
the king. And when the fish was cut
open Tom was inside and the cook
went and gave him to the king. The
king gave him a mouse to ride for his
horse. Once Tom and the mouse was
out and a big cat came and was going |
to eat Tom and the mouse. Tom
fought bravely until some people |
came and drove the cat away, and
Tom had some money that the king |
had given him and he went home and
then he got bit by spider. Then
he went back to the king and the fairy |
came and took him to fairyland where
there wasn't any spiders or bad peo-
pie. Yours truly, William 'Drenton,
New Buffalo, Michigan.
No, William, I never heard the |
story of Tom Thumb before. Tom
had lots of adventures, didn't he? But
as he went to fairyland probably he
is still enjoying himself there. l am
glad you liked your membership card,
and l hope you will write another
story for us sometime.
