A Thrilling Ghost Story.

Dear Uncle Jed: 1 have read the
stories written by the Wide-Awakes.
and enjoy them very much, so I
thought l would write a story.
Alice had just heard a thrilling ghost
story and was on her way home alone.
She thought she would go home a
short way through the woods because
she had stayed longer than she had
expected. Alice was a little girl and
although she tried to be very brave,
she was startled by every noise she
heard. thinking it to be the ghost,
which she had just heard about. This
would not do, so she began to run.
Soon, just behind her, came the
hustling of feet as though someone
was following her. She dared not
look around, so she kept running. THE
sound in back of her continued till,
at last as Alice was nearing her home
she summoned up courage to look be-
hind her. Carefully, she turned her
head, and to her great surprise and
amazement instead of seeing the
ghost, she saw her own dog which she
had taken to her friends with her. She
had forgotten the dog, but the dog
had not forgotten her.
When Alice reached home she told
the family of her adventure and they
all joined in laughing.

A Short Visit,

Dear Uncle Jed: When 1 was out of
school at Easter time, my mother and
little sister and myself went to visit
my aunt and cousin, Caroline, who
live in Westerly
We started early in the morning so
as to make the most of our time as
we intended to get home before dark.
1t was beautiful morning and we
started off in great glee,. leaving
FRANKLIN square on the 7.45 trolley
1t was very pretty all along the
country road. We saw f1ocks of SHEEP
on one side and a number of COWS on
the other. We were just one hour
making the trip.
We met my uncle and cousin Caro-
line at the station.
They thought we would like to see
some of their new buildings, SO we
went along until we came to the Pub
lie Library and we went through it;
then to the new post office. These
are both very nice buildings.
Then we walked through Wilcox
park. 1t is q very pretty park and
most people visiting Westerly go to
see it.
Most interesting Of all was our visit
to the pumping station. We enioyed
watching the machinery very MUCH
as we had never been in a pumping
station before. By this time it was
nearly noon and we were glad to start

CARRYING ORE AND COAL.
Enormous Traffic Accompanies aMnu-
facture of SteeI-Its Extent Battles
fmagination-Great Lakes Ship
pjno

The place where the raw materials
are brought together for the manufac-
ture of iron and steel must be selected
with due regard to the economies of
manufacture and distribution. 1t
should be near the ore or the coal( or
both), or else be somewhere along the
route of cheapest transportation,
where the ore and coal may meet.
Pittsburgh became the first great CEN
ter of dhe steel industry, with vast
fields of coal near at hand, a supply
of natural gas originally plentiful, and
excellent railroad facilities for the
transportation of raw materials and
the distribution of the finished pro-
ducts. Cleveland, halfway between
re and coal. and also the Mahoning
and Shenago valley districts, are CEN
tiers of large activity in iron and steel.
South Chicago is another great steel
manufacturing point. close to the

for my aunt's home, for ewe were a
little tired. 1t didn't take US long to
get there in a jitney.
When we arrived she had dinner
ready, and it tasted good.
After dinner Caroline gave US each
a pretty Easter basket filled with Eas-
ter eggs and Bunny rabbits. Then
we sat and listened to the records she
played on her talking machine. We
enjoyed them very much, and the time
passed so quickly it was time for lunch
before we knew it,
Our next thought was of getting
home. We didn't get home as early
as we had planned but it wasn't quite
dark We were very tired but we'll
pleased with our days outing.

The Girl Who Knew More Than Her
Mother

Dear Uncle Jed: There was once a
girl who thought she knew more than
her mother. She was going to a dance
and she asked her mother to make her
dress the way she wanted it, and not
her mothers way; and her mother said
she would. When the dress was fin
ished it was not fit to wear and the
girls at the dance laughed at her dress
When she went home she told her
mother about it, and her mother said
81 did as YOU said. did I not?' and she
could not deny it.
Another time she wanted to starch
her handkerchiefs and her mother said
that if she did she could not use them;
but she wanted her own way so she
did It and she could not use them
Those were two lessons she learned
by disobeying her mother

Jacob,

I was eating my dinner one summer
afternoon when I was about 10 years
old. 1 looked at my flock of sheep
hurrying around, when I saw a large
lion. He was taking my favorite lamb
Jacob. 1 grabbed my strong crook and
started after him He saw me and
picked my lamb up and started run
ming away. I chased him about mile
before I caught him. l gave him a
blow on the nose. He roared and was
going to jump at me. l took hold of
his beard and threw him and took the
lamb out of his mouth.
After that / thanked God that He
had given me strength to kill the lion.
That evening I told my father of my
adventure. I bound the lambs leg and
took 1t back to its mother I skinned
the lion and made a coat from it's skin.

A Woodchuck.

One day when 1 was on my way to
school I saw little brown animal in
the field where our cows were I look
ed at it for long time, but I could
not tell what it was. got up close
to it behind a tree so that the animal
would not see me. From behind the
tree I saw that it was a woodchuck
When 1 got home that night 1 set a
steel trap for it. In the morning when
was going to school I looked at the
trap I was surprised to find 1 had
caught him. l got a big stick and
killed him. This was the first wood
chuck ever caught

There was fly in our town,
And he was wondrous flip
He climbed upon the gravy bowl
And took a little dip.
He scrambled DER the. butter and
He smeared it on the floor;
He tried his humble handiwork
Upon the kitchen door.
He ffoated to the garbage can
And found it full of germs;
We hit him with a spatter!
Then he came to terms.
