HOW BOYS MADE SUGAR

Once upon a time there were
three boys who liked to tap sugar
trees.
One day in February, the boys
went into their fathers sugar grove
and tapped the trees and then they
huns buckets under them SO they
could catch the sap.
And the next morning they went
and got the sugar water.
They built big fire and put two
kettles over it. And they put the
sugar water in them. And then let
it boil day and night until they had
the sugar water into a syrup. Then
they took the syrup off the fire, and
then they let it cool a little while
and they put it in cans and sold it.
So they had fun making money.

One day John asked his mother
If he and Mary could go to the
woods and take lunch. She said.
no, but she would fix them a lunch
and they could eat it out under the
apple tree. She fixed their lunch
and they went out under the apple
tree. so when their mother was
gone and they were ready to eat
John told Mary they would run
away and take their lunch, and eat
II the woods. So they went to the
woods and We're just ready to eat,
when an old tramp came along, SO
they dropped their lunch and ran
home, and the tramp ate their
lunch. When John and Mary went

A COWBOY

Once while living out west in the
region OF the cowboys l happened
across man who said that be was
the greatest and bravest cowboy
that ever lived.
One day went UP in the noun
tains with this man. The first
animal We saw was a large rattle
snke. The man started to run
down the mountin. All at once a
bear stepped into the path of the
man. BY this time the man was
so frightened that he did not know
what he was doing. He stubbed his
toe and went rolling towards the
bear but the bear was so scared
that he stepped on across the path
and let the man go The man
rolled until he hit tree, then he
got up and started for home.
He had not gone far until he
heard a scream above his head.
Upon looking UP he saw a panther.
The last that l saw of the man
was when he started TO jump be-
hind a rock. What became OF him
do not know, but people say that
instead of jumping behind rock
he jumped over a cliff and lit upon
the back of a donkey which car
ried him home. And that was the
last / heard of the brave cowboy

The Preacher and the Bear

Once upon a time there was a
preacher who had pet bear. The
preacher went to Sunday school
one Sunday, and when he went
away the bear was asleep. After a
while the bear awoke. He wanted
something to do. He pushed the
doors upon. He found the cellar
door and pushed ii open, and he
went down cellar Then he found
the molasses barrel and turned the
faucet. The molasses began to
run out Then he began to lick UP
the molasses until he was full.
Then he lay down and rolled over
in it. After while he heard the
preacher coming home. He ran
upstairs and crawled under the
bed. The preacher got the bear
from under the bed and had to give
him a good scrubbing. Mary u

How William, Went Along

Grandmother, it's our turn to
have a boys story today
why to be sure it is. Let me
see. Do you want to know what
happened to the boy who was so
curious?"
ooh, yes!"
This is story that happened
not very long ago. In fact the child
is about the age of Robert, here
We shall call this boy William.
William, who was very inquisi-
tive, was always kept in a state of
alarm for fear some of his family
might enjoy some pleasure which
he did not know about.
Consequently, one day, when his
mother was getting ready to go
down town, William was very anx-
ious to go along, for he was afraid
his mother would go to show, and
he would not get to go too. His
fun loving sister said:
Remember, tonight, mother?
William was at once on the
alert. What was going to happen
tonight? Where were they going ?
Would he get to go too? Were they
all going?
"The only reply his mother made
was that they were all going. Viii
liam could scarcely wait until he
had finished his supper! Then his
mother calmly told him that it
would be later in the evening. All
that evening William remained
very restless, and at nine o'clock
he asked if it surely wasn't time
to go.
Eyes his mother replied You
may go to bed now We are all go
ing
And so he went to bed without
word" finished the grandmother.
Sounds like a schoolmate of
mine" Robert said
We'll replied grandmother,
perhaps it is. Elizabeth Grace.

the timber needed in the construc-
ton of a vessel is obtained in this
county, and considerable of the iron
material. Several coal mines of bit
luminous coal stretch along Coos
Bay. Some of this coal is shipped
and much is used at Marshfield.
In years gone by the United
States government commenced
dredging the bay. The soil removed
from the bottom was run through
large pipes over the low-lying
marshy lands of the town. Today
the business section of the town
stands on this filled in land. The
better class of residences are on the
adjacent foothills.
1t seems odd that the government
could find opportunity to fill in
all this low land in Oregon and moth
ing, absolutely nothing, has ever
been done towards retaining the
low lands of the Bonners Ferry
townsite. There is little, if any,
difference in the two cases.
The local board of trade is exer-
cising every effort to induce FAC
tories to start here. Branch whole
sale houses from both Portland and
San Francisco are located at Marsh
field
Business conditions are not thrifty
here at this time The section was
at the zenith of it's activity five or
ten years ago. Prices of city and
farm lands, to n stranger, seem very
high. There is little traffic in any
class of real estate.
The fruit or vegetables raised on
lands adjacent to the salt water are
inferior to thorc produced a few
miles interior.
| have been here now about two
months. November was pleasant
month. The month of December has
been rainy one-a bright day be-
ing the exception. On Christmas
day there was a fall of snow but
before noon it was all gone and was
followed by the customary rainfall
There has been no really cold
weather so far.
The bay is alive with small steam
ers and launches. These crafts car
ry on the trade of the farmers with
the merchants, just as the delivery
wagon does at home. Many of the
farmers own their own little steam
launches.
Raincoats and rubber boots are
worn by the farmers, and the towns
people go about much of the time
in a shield of rubber, so that the
moisture does little harm. | shall
never cease to marvel at the indif-
ference of the average Coos County
citizen to weather conditions. | have
not been away from Coos Bay and so
cannot pass on other sections of
Oregon. l am told further east
there is little or no rain, but lots of
snow. BARTLETT SINCLAIR.
