THE SPIRIT OF THE PICTURE
BY Farmer Smith

Willie wldeawake had told no one about
his dream-not even his mother. II was so
exciting to be a real painter. That is, a
real painter In ones dreams.
Smuggling close to the pillow, Willie
Wideawake pulled the covers close around
his neck and went fast TO sleep. That
night he did not dream at all--now wasn't
that funny2
He woke up bright and early and began
TO think. think, think But he did not
dream at all--he was quite sure OF that.
The next night he did dream, and he
did not forget IT, either.
Willie Wdeawake was seated In front
OF his canvas ready to paint when the
Spirit OF the picture said 10 him;
"why not paint yourself2"
"Grand idea" thought Willie, and when
he looked at his canvass IL showed his
face just like mirror.
Where shall l begin TO paintY" asked
Willie, half out loud.
eyes, OF course. Who would think Of
starting TO paint a picture without eyes?"
The voice OF the picture was talking 10
him again.
what color paint do I wantY II don't
know what color my eyes are" Willie began
| to cry.
That's good. Now your eyes are washed
| with tears and they look clean. Tears are
| TO make ones eyes brighter--so they can
| see things better" The voice stopped and
| then began once more:
your eyes are brown--take brown paint
and begin. To think you do not know
/ the color Of your beautiful eyes"
Willie Wideawake started to paint his
eyes when suddenly look OF sadness came
| into them.
II can't paint that sadness--that look
did MY eyes ever look like that7"
| ssYes we did" came two voioaa a. .ooa
One stopped and the other continued, "once
or twice you tried 10 read when the light
was poor, and II hurt us--it hurt us very
much"
II will never do that again" said wnlis
Never do what aEain?" asked the sweet.
est voice In the world
II was willies mother speaking.

The Horse, Though Doomed,

Increasing number of small farmers
