"Good Morning, Witty Witch,

happy, and that I want some finn. I'm
on my way now to see if the Brownies
and Gnomes aren't feeling like good
old-fashioned frolic in all this delicious
Slush."
"The very thing wanted to,do too"
said Mr.. Giant, and his voice was SO
loud that from all around the Gnomes
and the Brownies kept appearing.
Hello, Mr.. Giant" they shouted.
'Hello, Witty Witch, are you going
to tell us stories?"
NO" said Witty Witch, there are
come to ask you to have a frolio. The
slush is so NICE"
"It's wonderful" said the Brownies
and Gnomes.
| And they then began to play'!. Such.
games as they had. They made houses,
and castles and palaces, for the slushy-
snow stuck together so WELL. Then
they threw snowballs and they all got
so wet And trying to, dodge the
snowbalIs, of course, they fell down in
the slush.
They laughed so hard and they Kept
getting more soaked and more drench-
ed all the time, but how they lowed it
"We only get slush at just this time
of year." said the Brownies.
swell, we'll, have a good deal more
Of it before the next few weeks are
over with" said Witty Witch
"That's good" said Mr.. Giant.
"Hurrah," said the Gnomess
81 shall now bring on the Animals
Of Giant-land," said Mr.. Giant.
"Ah," said Witty Witch, mo wonder
you wanted a frOlic today" For all
knew that Mr.. Giant had some very
finely trained Animals that were only
known to the Giant World, and to the
little Gnomes and Brownies because
they are such friends of Mr.. Giant.
The procession started with num-
Der Of dogs who looked like Chinese
Chow Dogs, carrying in their mouths
the flag Of Giant-land. 1t is large
yellow flag and on it is picture made
in black silk of Mr.. Giant in his top
boots.
Then came some Birds who flew back
wards. If they had not been a little
above the Animals they certainly
would have bumped back and forth,
for they flew backwards no matter
which way the Chow Dogs turned. And
the Dogs kept turning back too. for
most of the Animals walked backwards |
and for those who didn't, the elbows |
would sometimes have to go on |
straight ahead.
There were the Squirrels who rode
on the backs of the little black Ponies.
The Squirrels are great friends of Mr..
Giant, and the Ponies play around Mr..
Giants Cave and prance up his legs
to eat sugar out of his hands.
Mr.. Giant has little Zoo, all his
OWN, for he keeps it for his friends
he Brownies and Gnomes, and Witty
Witch talks to the Animals and gets
stories from them to tell to the little
Creatures of the Woods.
The Animals enjoyed the Slush too,
tut when the procession was over, ev-
,ryone marched back to Witty Witch's
AVE, where a roaring fire, dry clothes
md good hot supper was awaiting
hem.

The musical given by the finance

evening at the High school auditorium
was one of the best program ever
presented in Moscow. An opportunity
was given the people of the city to
hear some of the best talent in the

ton, and the enthusiastic applause
given the numbers evidenced the pleas
ure of the audience.
The double piano number given by
Miss fuller and Miss Heller was
well received and they responded to

FOOD TRAINING CAMP.

Uncle Sans food specialists, as a re-
suit Of an exhaustive inquiry into the
ability Of the United States TO feed the
Allies from this years crop, have decid-
ed that grain and meat in any quantity
cannot be exported unless economy OF
the most careful kind is practiced. II
was this finding which resulted in the
appointment Of Herbert c. Hoover as
! food administrator.
! For this reason these experts lool,
with great favor upon the plan Of the
Delaware State Fair, which is to be held
September 3rd to 9TH inclusive. to con-
vert the Fair into a great Food Training
Camp, where visitors may learn MANY
ways Of increasing food production and
checking the waste Of food. The fair
management is exerting every effort TO
put on as many educational features as
possible.
AS nearly as can be found said a
prominent official Of the United States
Department Of Agriculture. "Our wheat
crop will hardly exceed 500. OOO. 600 bu-
