MORE CHILDREN THAN
EVER AT CHAUTAUOUA

This year there are more boys
and girls than ever at the chautau-
qua, and they are having an even
better time, too. The very first
day there were seyenty-nine at the
children's tent, while last year
there were only sixty-one, and since
Miss Shera has the knitting class
while Miss Ruth tells stories there
are boys and girls from three
years old on up to sixteen who en-
JOY the different kinds of things,
and gather at the tent in the morn
ings.
This week the hours were from
eightthirty to ten-thirty in the
mornings, because of Miss Shera
going to institute, but next week
they Will be from nine O'Clock UNI
til eleven. so everyone who has
missed any of this weeks fun can
be sure to make up for it then.

YOUNG ACROBATS AT
CHILDREN'S TENT

The boys and girls at the chill
dren's tent at chautauqua do not
need to have Sells-Floto or Robin
sons Circus come to town, for
they have great experts in high
class acrobatic performances right
here in Richmond.
After the morning program was
over last Tuesday, Howard Kemper
and William Campfield entertained
those who still remained, by climb
ing clear to the top of the large cen
ter poles in the tent, and then slid
ing down. But Howard said it was
awfully hard to do it, and coming
down, it made your hands pretty
hot, so no one else tried it.

EVEN DOG ENJOYS NEW
DRINKING FOUNTAIN

The new sanitary drinking foun-
tains in the ChautauQua grounds
are great improvement, and since
boys and girls are thirsty about
half the time, they enjoy these
fountains very much. But children
are not the only ones who are
thankful for this easy way of get
ting a good cool drink
The other day big fluffy collie
dog came along by the fountain,
and he was so hot and thirsty that
he shifted and shifted all around
the fountain. Then he watched
two boys come up and got a drink
And as soon as they had gone he
jumped up, with his front paws On
the edge Of the basin, and took
good drink from the fountain at
the west side, which was running
all the time.
And little girl who was watch
ing the dog, said, We'll, guess !
wouldn't like to drink after a dog
most times, but il these are sanl-
tary drinking fountains, guess it's
all right"

GIRLS
LEARN KNITTING
AT CHAUTAUQUA

Knitting has become as great
fashion with the girls as with the
grown-up folks at the chautauqua.
Almost every girl on the grounds
is seen carrying around her ball Of
yarn and needles, busily poking
away at the stitches as she works
on her scarf or doll sweater.
In the knitting class at the chill
dren's tent over twenty-five girls
have learned to knit, and several
have declared that as soon as they
have practiced enough to knit more
evenly, they are going to start max
ing scarfs for the sailors.
But Eleanor Hart has advanced
the most rapidly of any of the be-
ginners. Although she only learn
ed to knit last week, she has start
ed already on a sweater for her
self, which has almost no mistakes
In it although she has knit quite
ways.
One of the easiest, and yet most
useful articles for the girls to knit
Is the dolls shp-on sweater, max
ing it quite on the order of the SOL
der sweaters, with the square neck.
For one of the small dolls, the
sweater need only be twelve stitch
es wide, and without any knitting
and pearling at the bottom. After
1t is two and one-half inches long,
Knit four stitches, then bind off
four, and knit four more, this max
ing the neck. Knit three ribs, and
then cast on the four stitches again.

RICHMOND GIRL
FORMER PLAYMATE
OF CHILD WONDER

All the boys and girls that were
so interested in hearing Alice
Louise Shrode, the Child Wonder"
who gave such an entertaining pro-
gram at the chautauqua Monday
night, might wonder if she would
be as nice to play with when she
was off the stage as she seemed
to be when on the platform and
Evelyn Hill can tell you that she is.
Several years ago when Evelyn
lived in Indianapolis, Alice visited
right next door, and the two girls
had lots of fun playing with a push
mobile. 1t had been so long ago
that Evelyn had almost forgotten
about the things they did, but Alice
remembered nearly everything, and
the first thing she said when she
saw her former playmates was, DO
you still have that pushmObile?
In the afternoon Evelyn and Alice
took a walk over in the Glen and
had just as much fun eating pea
nuts and feeding the monkeys, as
though Alice did not have to go
onto the chautauqua platform in the
evening and give an entertainment
that no other girl or boy in the city
could do.

SERGEANT EMPEY
TELLS WORK OF ENG.
LISH BOY SCOUTS

The English Boy Scouts certain
ly are doing their bit to help their
country, according to Sergeant
Empey who gave the thrilling lee
ture at the chautauqua Thursday
nigth. In his talk he only mention
ed the fact that the boys, and girls
too, are helping do their share, but
afterwards, he told few details OF
the noble things they do.
Two boys scouts are assigned to
each of the wards Of the hospitals,
and day after day these boys are
at their posts, ready TO write let
tiers for the wounded soldiers, reaG
to them, carry messages or help in
any way that they are asked.
Also, two boys scouts are assign
ed to each crowded district in the
large cities, and any blind soldier
who is trying to get chance to
cross the street, never has to wait
more than a second or two before
the scout is there by his side to
help him across.
But in France, the boys and girls
are almost taking the place of men
i'll actually working in the fields
Sergeant Empey said that he had
seen girls only about eight or nine
years old, hitching up the horses
and really taking care of the
teams, working long hours in the
hot sun and trying to do as their
fathers and brothers had done be-
fore they had gone to the front
And of course another big thing
that is being done to help, is the
work the girl scouts do both for the
army and for the red cross. There
did not seem to be one Stacker
among them, and Sergeant Empey
said that the boys and girls here in
American could take a good many
lessons from our allies across the
water il we want to keep up with
them, and do our share.

Russian Boy Tells of
Exciting Narrow Escape

Ny first narrow escape came
when | was in Europe | was out
playing in the woods While try
ing to walk over log, which was
over a kind of little swamp. | slip
ped and fell in. There | was, slowly
sinking in the swamp, and when
| was. in to my waist line, two men
came along and heard my screams
so they pulled me out
In the swamp | contracted a
disease which made me sick for
three weeks.
Another close call was when ]
was run over by buggy but luck
lily the wheels did not touch me
and l escaped injury.
While on train riding from Lii
bau, Russia, where ! was to take
a ship for America, the train stop
ped all of sudden with jerk,
while ! was sleeping in the upper
berth of our apartment. The sud
den stop threw me out of the berth
to the floor; it knocked me uncon-
scious for almost two hours.
On the ship sailing for America
we almost collided with another
ship in the fog. while l was stand
ing on the stairs leading to the
second floor of the ship The ship
gave sudden turn; l lost my bal
ance and before | knew what hap
pened ] was lying at the bottom of
the stairs.
In America ! saw many boys rid
ing bicycles so ! asked my father
to get me one. tried to learn to
ride no more than | bought 1t.
l did not like the rough streets
SO ] took my bicycle and rode on
the sidewalks. ], not knowing how
to ride well, fell over and bump
ed my head against a building
making a cash in my forehead two
inches long, clear to and nearly
through the bone
Another time while riding
through an alley my brake would
not work and l hit an automobile.
The sudden stop of the bicycle
acted as a brake on it; the back
wheel skidded and l found myself
half way under the auto. My b.
cycle was damaged a little but l
escaped with few scratches.
While riding on my bicycle for
my corner to catch car with pa
pers, an automobile hit me. The
bumpers prevented me from going
under the auto and maybe getting
killed. The auto dragged me for
about fifteen feet. People wanted
to pick me up but picked myself
up and went on my way with a
smashed wheel. interned my BIZ
cycle for lack of money for re-
pairs.
Two summers ago while trying
to get some peaches off Of a tree
limb broke and ] fell to the
ground. landed on a nail, which
almost caused blood poison to set
In,
Here is another that has just
come to my mind:
We were visiting family in the
northern part of the city and they
had a boy about my age.
Back Of the city is hill and
there he took me and my brother.
On top of the hill We had some
fun and from here we could see the
city and the sea far out.
When starting to go down he told
me and my brother that he would
race us down. We thought he
meant it for real, and we started
to run down the hill, but he start
ed to walk down. We saw this
and we tried to stop, but it was of
no use,-we could not stop. | tum-
bled over and my brother following,
we rolled to the bottom, our noses
and chins being badly scratched
and cut, but no bones were broken.
We thought we would know better

PecuIIarItIes of the Hen.

Hens are funny creatures" observes
q poultry fancier. They have their
likes and dislikes-especially disIikes.
If you move a hen she turns crusty,
and won't lay eggs. She likes her old
home, and takes an abOminable time
to get used to the new.
If you wave a cloth within sight of
the occupants of your fowl run you
will hear a shocking row. This par
ticular noise is known as the danger
signal and sometimes will be in
dulged in without a single break for as
long as twenty minutes.
IF you take it into your head to
rearrange the nest-bOxes, depend upon
it Biddy will pay you out. She will
miss that day with her usual egg.
provided they are good, it's wisest
to stick to old things in pOultry-keep-
ing, and not to shift them unless you
are compelled to do so. At least,
there's one thing you can change, and
that's the fodder. Hens won't object
to that at all; in fact, they like it"
