The History of
Stella
(By Leah Dorothy Smoker,
Age 10. New Madison. Ohio)

once upon time there was q
Queen to whom was brought lit
tie daughter.
The King. however, wanted
little son and when the Queen saw
the little girl she was afraid to
show the baby to the King.
So she took her to an old witch
who lived in cave long way in
side a mountain and asked her to
take care of her baby girl and
bring her up to be good woman.
The witch was very good witch
and she grew fond of the little girl.
She named her Stella and she
taught her to be good girl as well
as wise, so that when Stella grew
up she could read the fortunes of
many people by looking at the
stars.
Now the Queen always visited
the witch once year for she loved
her baby and only gave her up
through fear Of doing her harm.
When she saw how beautiful
Stella grew each year she tried to
think OF some way she could have
her daughter near her and let the
King know 1t was his
BY and by the King grew old
and he was afraid. the stork would
not bring him a son, SO he sent
for a distant relative who had a
son and gave him a bag of gold to
let him adopt the son as prince
and his heir.
When the Prince became a man
the King said to him one day, II
have not long to live and want
to see you settled in life before
die Go out over the country and
find a wife who is suited to be
your queen and bring her to me"
So the Prince started out but be-
fore he left the Queen said, go
to the mountain on the opposite
side of the woods from here and
you will find a cave. In this cave
daughter can read your fate in
the stars. Consult her and it may
help you to find wire"
The Queen thought if he saw the
girl he might fall in love with
her So she hurried off to the cave
herself by shorter route and took
with her beautiful dress.
"Put on this" she told Stella,
'the Prince is coming to you to
have his fortune read in the stars.
It is fitting that you should be
dressed properly to receive him,
but do not tell him l have been
i, here"
BY and by the Prince and his
servants came riding to the cave
and called for the witch and her
daughter.
When he beheld Stella he dis
mounted and taking off his hat he
bent low before her. Can 1t be
that you are daughter of
witch?" he asked when they were
alone. You look more like the
daughter of king"
But Stella only blushed and
hung her head; she really did not
know what he meant, but to have
a young and handsome man speak
to. her was something that had
never happened before
She found she was disappointed
when he begged her to read his
fate for the stars told her he would
marry a kings daughter and that
he would journey far to find her
The Prince had fallen in love
with Stella by this time and when
he heard what the stars held for
him he cried out. Never will |
marry the kings daughter. | will
make you my bride or no one.
Come; we will go to the King and
if he will consent / will give up
my claims to the throne if you will
be my wife"
The witch told her to go to the
King and so with Stella seated on
the horse beside him he went back
to the castle.
The Queen was watching from
behind her curtain and when she
saw Stella her heart leaped for

MOVEMENT AFOOT
FOR incorporation

For the past two or three weeks
there has been a quiet agitation going
on about town to start a movement
to incorporate the town of Winnie
mucca. Public sentiment seems -
be in favor of the proposition and it
is probable that definite steps will be
taken during the month to accomplish
this result.
The law provides that a petition
must be presented to the District
Court, signed by a majority of the
electors who are taxpayers, as shown
by the last registration list and as
sessment roll, which application must
be in writing and contain a descrip-
ton of the land to be included IN
the Incorporated town, with a map
showing the streets and alleys, and
must be accompanied by an affidavit
to the effect that all names on the
petition were signed within ninety
days from the date of the application.
Upon being satisfied of the sufficiency
of the petition, the court shall decree
that the town is incorporated and ap-
point five commissioners, who shall
call special election. giving thirty
days notice, to elect city officials.
who shall hold until the next regular
election, and thereafter for the term
of two years.
Having less than 5000 inhabitants,
Winnemucca would be a city of the
third class, and would elect mayor,
three councilmen. clerk, treasurer and
marshal.
An attempt was made in 1913 to
incorporate the town, the citizens vot-
ing at a special election. held on June
3 of that year. The proposition YVES
defeated by fifty majority. the vote
standing 121 for and III against

MAKES
PARADE SUCCESS

In the office of Maj. FL. Green az
the Capitol building was centered on
Sunday during the forming and des-
patching of the procession the system
which made success of the huge cayai-
eade.
Centralized and systematized as has
been the working of the registration
proceedings and the draft operation
under Mai. Green's hands, the big pro-
cession over which he mao respossi-
bility moved with precision and &C
euracy.
Mai. Charles H. Bonesteel had
charge of the military portion of the
parade, getting The various units noti-
fled of their station, and he also had
worked out with the major the details
OF the procession beforehand. 1t was
this system which accounted much
for the success that came of the
whole affair. 49,.
Maj. Green kept at his desk through.
out the morning, and was assisted by
ID unassigned officers of the national
guard, who acted as aids, In addition
a number of boy scouts were detailed
to the office as messengers. Hitches
that seemed about to develop in the
procession as it was forming were
nipped in the bud, telephone messages
or by boy scouts bringing word to the
office, after which one of these aids,
who understood perfectly the organi-
cation would be sent to the place
most needed.
