THE BLACK PEOPLE

The black people live in Africa
and Asia. They live far away.
Their country lies to the southeast
across the ocean. We called 1t
Africa. This land is very large. In
some places there are great deserts
and also big rivers and grassy
plains and big forests. The largest
river is In the middle OF Africa 1t
is called the Kongo River. In it's
great valley many little black peo-
pie live. The girls and boys max
play huts. will tell you how
they make them. They break off
strong reeds and set them in a cir.
Gle in the ground. Then they tie
others on top to make q roof. They
have no string but use long grass.
Now the boys tie lunches of grass
all over the reeds and the hut is
done. There are Wild animals In

and Leopard. did not name them

NEW RACE TRACK

Richmond has a new race track,
and all during vacation 1t was we'll
tried out with almost constant use.
1t wasn't horse racing, or auto
mobile racing Or even motorcycle
racing-they are old. This was
hoop and roller skate racing. and
the track was what they use for a
fountain basin at the South Seventh
Street Park In summer time.
As you came down the street.
those bright sunshiny days, all you
could see was a mass OF bobbing
heads there In the fountain, and 1t
looked as though the children were
trying to be fish. But as you drew
nearer, you would discover that the
cause of the shouting was the
races. BY sending roller skate
around the basin fast enough It
would climb half way up to the
top, and look exactly like the
motorcycles racing in a cone. One
Of the boys could send his skate
fast enough to 60 clear around
twice before falling down at the
bottom. Altogether the new race
track was a rather nice place to
spend part OF the vacation.

YOUNG FllANCIERS
LOAN PARENTS MONEY

One OF the most unusual plans for
children TO save money and at the
same time learn Its value, 10 the
system John and Alice Lemon use.
After they have saved up to q GER
tain sum, they write out a note ~
the exact business style loaning the
money to their parents at Q certain
rate OF interest for certain length
of time, and then when the note Is
mature. they figure up the interest,
collect the money, and either write
out a new note, or put their say
ings into a hank, where they have
2 Christmas Savings Fund or what
ever they choose.
The following little article tells
how Alice advocates saving money.
and 1t would be good thing II
many Of the Juniors would follow
her example.
"Dear Juniors
Though am only ten years old
l have already saved enough money
to form a good sized bank account
My mother began by putting the
Christmas money in small tin
bank, when l was but a baby. As
| grew older was getting pretty
careless until my first ride on
friends pony. Then my chief AM
bition was to buy one. I saved all
my nickles and dimes to put. In the
account which | called my pony
fund Ny father thought me too
young and decided to have me wait
q few years. l am glad now that
he did, for since then have learn
ed to ride bicycle. and ! prefer
that Of the two.
ANY boy or girl who would like
ia saye now could make bargain
with their p.~.aan!s for quarter for
every good report from sacnlivss ,s...n
certain number Of VS. and = ' :.
You could also help your mother
with the house work. An especial
" good thing which I have done for
three years is having Christmas
savings account" Alice Lemon.

Have Birthday Candy

Warner School has adopted the
unique custom of celebrating birth
days by having birthday candy.
No one knows how this lovely
custom first started, but 1t has
grown to be an UNMARRIED rule.
Whenever anyone has birthday,
they bring fairy sticks enough to
pass all around their room and
even to others in the school. and
every few days you see someone
going around making everybody
else feel sweet and happy with the
birthday candy. That is one Gus
tom that children have formed
themselves, for the teachers had
nothing to do with it, except to en-
joy the candy after It has been
brought. So You see, even though
the children Of the second ward
do not have a large playground,
there is some advantage in going
to that school.

makers. In order to have q new in.
terest for the girls on rainy daya.
they are planning to make Q biz
play house in the basement, and a.
ready the boys have made doll fur

cigar boxes from home. sawed the
wood according to the patterns,
nailed it with the tiniest little nails,
and painted 1t brown, SO that now
they have q large collection of the
most attractive little furniture any
where. There are tables, beds,
chairs, settees and old-fashioned
high backed benches, and if the
girls put as pretty little rugs and
curtains In the house as the furni-
ture the boys have contributed, the
doll house will be the most ideal
In the city, and the Joseph Moore
children may we'll be proud of their
work,

BOY SCOUTS PLAN
FOR BIG YEAR

Boy Scout troop is planning to
make the new year a progressive |
one in Scouting. The troop will
be re-registered at National Head |
quarters in January with between
c6 and 80 scouts who are already
members and several other boys
have made application to join this
troop. At the time of re-register-
ing there will be Is Second Class
Scouts and 1 First Glass. and the
remainder of the troop have quail
fled in nearly all of their Second
Class tests.
beginning with the Tenderfo0t
test and continuing through the
Second Glass test the boys have
been learning to be useful to them
selves and others, to render first
aid to the injured, to be resource
full and prepared at all times to do
the right thing in any emergency
that may arise. 1t will be the pur-
pose from now on in the First
Glass tests to continue this train
ing much more advanced, and to
help every Scout to realize his re-
sponsibility to others. encouraging
his community interest and activity
in those things which will make
him good citizen.
1t is the plan for each Patrol of
Troop 2 to take up First Aid work
and advance as far as possible.
We wish to thank our many
friends and associates who have
helped US during the year 1916.
