How Prince George
Saved the Princess

fairies lived, and the same fairy
met the prince.
She asked him where he was
going, and the prince said, ITO that
mountain over there to get gold
en- statue for the dragon, SO he will
give me the princess"
1T is just as l expected" said
the fairy. Every man that has
come has been sent over to that
mountain, never to return"
The prince looked scared but the
fairy said that if they had listened
to her they might have gotten back
safely. THE dragon is friend of
this giant and he sends the men to
get the statue While they are
there the giant makes them into
soup and invites the dragon to
help eat them"
Then the fairy gave him some
powder like substance and said,
The giant will set you to work
stirring his soup, then he will eat
his soup and go and rest awhile,
but he will keep his eye on, you. If
you put the powder into his soup
he will go to sleep. Here is a
sword to cut off his head with.
and then won go to the north room
and there you will find what you
are seeking"
So the prince left the fairy and
went to the giants home. He did
as the fairy had told him and soon
came back with the statue and the
giants he'd.
He took the statue to the dragon
who was SO surprised he almost
went crazy. When the prince asked
for the princess, the dragon grew
SO angry he rushed at the prince,
but the prince stabbed the beast in
the heart and killed him.
Then all the ladies gave cry OF
Joy and they all tried to kiss him.
So the prince took the princess and
went back to Greece where later
they were married and invited the
others to their home.-Robert Ball,
age II, Williamsburg.

In a far away country there dwelt
a dragon who carried away ladies'.
My story is how the dragon car
ried away the princess of Greece
and how the prince of Wales saved
her.
One day while the prince was
sailing on the sea he came to
Greece where he was brought be
fore the king. 1t happened that
the princess came into the room,
and the prince fell in love with her.
But just then the dragon came
swooping down and picked up the
princess in his jaws and carried
her away to his den in the mount
aims.
The prince at once volunteered
to go after her So out he went
and had just started when he
caught sight of the dragon away
to the north. After travelling many
miles he entered a wood which be.
longed to some fairies. 1t hap
pened that the prince met a fairy.
They were dumbfounded at seeing
each other, but soon became used
to each other.
The fairy asked the prince where
he was going and he told her
Then the fairy told him where the
dragon lived.
So the prince found the mountain
and entered the dragons den. The
dragon was not at home so the
prince looked in the cave and saw
some OF the young ladies working
and among them the princess. All
the ladies were crying.
When the princess saw him she
told him to leave the cave at once
because it was time for the dragon
to return. But the prince said he
was going to release her and the
other maidens before he left.
While they were talking the sky
grew dark. The princess said,
THAT is the dragon coming back
home!" So she ran back to her
work and fairly began when the
dragon entered
What are you doing in my
cave?" roared the dragon. Then
the prince said, Il have come after
the princess" The dragon said
that if he would get him a golden
statue from the giant who lived
on that distant mountain and get
back in week, he would release
the princess
So the prince started out and
went past the woods where the

Handsome Structure is Proposed by
Business and Professional Men
Incorporated for 100000.

1t has been apparent for several
years that large general hospital
should be located at Minot, and there
have been various good reasons ad-
vanced. In the first place, it is 500
miles to the Twin Cities, where large
hospitals are located, which are fully
equipped with all modern appliances
and comforts for those who need the
services Of such an institution, and as
a consequence thousands of dollars an
nually are expended by the people of
North Dakota and Montana for rail
way fare alone in reaching these large
hospitals. As is usually the case
when a person needs hospital services
it is necessary for members of the
family or near friends to accompany
the patient, and this makes an extra
expense that is only made necessary
because there is no large hospital To-
Gated in the state that can care prop
erly for the sick, not that thu smaller

N|NOT MAN KILLED
IN C. n. Wreck

Edward r. Spiers, Salesman for the
Northern Produce Co., Instantly
Killed-AnOther Injured

Minneapolis, Mimi, Nov. 15.-Guy
RACER of Chester, Mont, and Edward
R. Spiers of Minot, N. D., were killed
near here early today when one Great
Northern freight train crashed into
second freight train, demolishing the
caboose in which the men were Sleep
ing. Both were bringing livestock to
Minneapolis.
For two hours rescuers worked try

tween cries of pain directed their ef-
forts.
Spiers, who is connected with the
Northern Produce company of Minot,
was bringing a carload of chickens to
the markets. He was killed instantly
when freight train No. Alb ploughed
into the caboose of train No. 402, in
which both men were sleeping.
Deputy Coroner Hobbs said he was
told by the trainmen that No. Alb over
ran the red block signal set against
it, waving a red lantern held by the
trainmen of No 402, who had gone
back, when 4O2 stopped two miles west
of the Cedar Lake yards, where the
wreck occurred
A. 3. Woodcock of st. Paul was the
engineer of train No. 419. The engine
of the second train, one Of the newest
freight engines, ploughed through the
cab0ose and two cars without being
damaged or derailed.
RACER lay across the body of Spiers,
who was dead when the trainmen
reached the rear of the train immedi-
ately after the wreck.
Coroner Seashore will begin an in
vestigation Of the wreck tomorrow
noon. At that time the railroad men
and all others who were concerned in
O, saw the accident will testify. The
coroner's verdict will not be given I'M
