Glenn Stewart Tells What
Became of a Nickel

The first thing I knew I was in a
dark hole which I guess the miners
called mine. One day l was wish
ing l was out of the dark place when
heard miner say, There is some
silver at the other end of the mine"
Pretty soon some men came and
drilled holes in me and then put some
dynamite in them and then one miner
took a match and lighted the dyna.
mite, and then they all ran to the
other end Of the mine.
In little bit it exploded. Then they
went back and picked me up and took
me to a place where was made into
bright new nickel, and here start
into the world
The man who made me kept me and
put me into a bank. That night a
robber got me and some other money
and ran away. A policeman caught
him and took me away from him and
had him arrested.
The policeman gave me to ticket
agent for some tickets. The ticket
agent gave me to the conductor on a
train for doing a favor for him. The
conductor gave me to the brakeman
for present and the brakeman gave
to the engineer for cigar
The engineer kept me for long time
but before he gave me to anyone he
carved his initial on me. Then he
spent me. One day when he went
into bank for some change was
given to him. He said, Here is my
old nickel again." He kept me until
he lost me. When he found out he
had lost me he hunted for me long
time but could not find me. ! lay on
a railroad track, One day train ran
over me and mashed me and one day

steps Over the entrance were carved
some words out of which shone q

Viola Sloan Sends in a Few
of Washington's Noble
Rules
Dear Juniors:

Dear Juniors:
I am writing a story Of George
Washington.
When Washington was twelve years
old his elder brother, Lawrence
found neatly written in book rules
for behavior which the lad had Sc,
down for his own guidance. No one
had suggested such a plan to the
child, which, of course, makes the
fact the more remarka ble We
give few Of these noble rules:
Associate yourself with men of good
quality if you esteem your reputation
for it is better to be alone than in
bad company.
Every action in company ought tc
be with some sign of respect to those
present.
Speak not when others speak.
Sit not when others stand.
Speak not when you should hole
your peace.
Walk not when others stop.
Wherein you reprove another, be un
blamable yourself, for example is bet
ter than precept.
Labor to keep in your heart thai
little spark Of celestial fire called
conscience.
Let your recreations be manful, MOI
isinful
Seek not to lessen the merits Of
iothers; neither give more than due
praise.
Be not hasty to believe flying re
ports to the injury of any.
Go not thither where you know not
whether you shall be welcome.
Give not advice without being asked
and when desired, do it briefly.
Gaze not on the marks and blem
ishes of others, and ask not how they
came
What you may speak in secret de
liver not before others.
Think before you speak.
. Pronounce not imperfectly, mol
bring out your words too hastily, but
orderly and distinctly.
Treat with men at right times about
business, and whisper not in the com
pany Of others.
Be not in haste to relate news II
you know not the truth thereof
Undertake not what you cannot per
form, but be careful to keep you,
promises.
Speak not evil OF the absent fol-
unjust
Show not yourself glad at the mis-
fortune of another, though he were
your worst enemy

Florence Ellis Writes Life
of Washington

Dear Junior:
I have never written before, so ]
will write about the life Of Washing
ton.
He was born February % 1872, in
I; Q small house with ground floor. He
had two half-brothers who were both
little brother.
His folks were good, kind and
thoughtful people, and were respected
far and near. They were hard work
ing people and though they were
among the most we'll fixed people
they lived very simply.
George, like most little boys, now
adays, did not like to go to school,
although he did not have much to say
against 1t. He went ahead and
studied hard. He was soon pretty
well educated.
He loved to roam the forests and
fields and chop down trees. He
chopped his fathers cherry tree down,
which caused great sorrow to his
father for the loss of It, and it caused
great sorrow to George because he
did not mean to do 1t.
The evening was spent around the
fireplace, and George was always
asleep by 10 o'clock. This kind of
life was spent until his country called
him for liberty.
When war broke out with England
Washington was chosen for the
captain The war lasted eight years.
It was very serious war, and our
flag was in disgrace many times.
When the war was over the con-
Kress met and elected Washington for
president. He was then, and is yet,
called the Father Of Our Nation, be-
cause It was by him that we are free
from England.
Ladies waved their handkerchiefs
children dropped flowers in his path
as he went by.
He served as president for two
terms. At last, after one days illness,
he died on December IA, 1893. He
said before he died, at is hard to die,
but / am not afraid to die
