fellow and they were having so
many wars over there in the old
country, and he'd be that hungry
his little hand would be placed over
his stomach, and he'd come up to
his mother, my grandmother, and
he'd say, Mother, might we be
having something for dinner to-

of her eye with the corner Of her
apron as she'd say, "Ah my son,
if you could eat this bony hand of

Boy Beat Dog That Saved
His Life

Once upon time at little boy
about eleven years of age was seen
striking his dog, Rover. His father
said in an angry voice, "Why are
you striking poor Rover"
Because he stepped on my kite
and almost put hole in it," said
Harry.
well, he did not do it on pur-
pose, did he?" Harry said GROSSLY,
"He is old enough to know better"
81 think he is much wiser than
you are" said his father. IF he
had been as foolish a dog as you are
boy he would have bitten you
Have I never told you how Rover
saved your life?"
NO" said Harry.
well, he saved your life from
a snake" His father told him the
whole story and he was never un.
kind to Rover again.-Robert

MY SCHOOL GARDEN

One day last week some children
IN my room went to make gardens.
My garden is about six feet long
and fifteen feet across. We spad-
ed the gardens and then leveled
them off. We had to make fiji
teen rows. l planted eight rows of
onions and in each row I put twen-
ty-five onions. Then we had six
rows left. l put half lettuce and
radishes there. l covered them.
hope they will come up soon. I
think we all will go out next week
and work at our gardens to keep
weeds out. This summer we will
have a fine time pulling the weeds
out of our gardens.-Nellie Ramey,

had to stay in the house, and could
not 60 to school on Monday.
At last Monday came. She saw
the children 60 by to school. She
wished she could 60 with them but
she could not walk. That day at
school the children thought they
would give her a party SO that
night they asked their mothers and
they said they could, SO on Tues.

house and they surprised her SO
that she did not know what to do
and then the children gave her
some presents; then Mary's mother
gave them some candy and cake to
eat.-Myrtle Irwin, "A, Whitewa-
