best OF each one, mix up a pure
United States creed, and call that
mine.
1t doesn't matter what party q
man Is a follower of, he's an Ameri-
can just the same. His flag is our
flag, his native land is our land, and
the brave old American patriots
thrill him just as they do US. Only
the little things make up party poll
tics nowadays-maybe a question
of the whole United States passing
the Woman Suffrage law, or the
separate states one at a time; or
perhaps the subject of an S-hour
law. But in the great questions,
and in the great American spirit of
Patriotism, every man who is great
enough even to be nominated for
president, must hold the same fund
amental ideals. For this is a united
country, and we are united people,
and any man who is truly worthy
to be the leader of one group of
Americans is worthy of respect
from ALL
Now Woodrow Wilson is our
president, and you and |, and
Charles Hughes and all Republic
ans and all Socialists and every
body who calls himself an Ameri-
can owes him their best loyalty as
long as he is president. For he is
leading our government in the
ways he believes best for our good,
and our President always has been,
and always should be- our great
national hero.
So Junior Folks, be Americ ans
first, and never forget that you owe
your best patriotism to your coun-
try and the men who are leading
the affairs of state for you.

them under the back porch. i was

The first two or three times that
she came out she would not look at
me. One day she came over to our
back door and just cried and cried
until | let her in.
And ever since that she comes
to meet me when | go over to the
neighbors and go in the house with
me. And every morning she comes
over to see me, and when ever
she hears me over home she will
always come over to our house,

Three Kittens

Once there were three kittens.
These little kittens lived all alone
in barn. Every day when the sun
was shining brightly the little kit
tens came out to play. They climb
ed up the trees, ran behind the
boxes and had a merry time. Up
the hill there lived an eagle in a
large cave. Every time he saw
the kittens he would fly over and
around the barn. So one day he
caught two of the kittens. And the
other one still lives with the big
shepherd dog in the big red barn.
