PRINCESS BERNONA

once mCre nVeu u queen VINO
had everything that money could
buy, but she was very sad. The
queens name was Elizabeth. She
had four children, three boys and a
girl. The boys names were Clyde,
Herman and Dwight. The girls
name was Bernona.
One day Bernona was lost and
the queen sent people out to look
for her and promised that who
so-ever found her should have her
hand in marriage. Many young
men tried and failed so at last ~
queen sent her eldest son out to
look for his sister. Clyde went
to the wisest old woman in the
country and asked if she knew
where his sister was, but he never
returned. In few days Queen
Elizabeth sent her second son out
to try his luck, but he, too, failed
to return.
In a few days the youngest son,
Dwight wanted TO search for his
sister. He cOaxed his mother very
hard and at last she gave her con-
sent Dwight went to the wise old
woman and asked her where his
sister was and she told him two
things to remember and they were,
u) not to drink or eat anything
until he returned and (2) not to
let anyone speak to him and If
they did he was to cut OF their
heads. She also gave him sword
and told him that his sister was in
the great round tower After get
ting this information Dwight went
on his way.
After he had gone great num-
Der of miles he met a man who
was driving a team of horses what
had eyes of Are. He asked the man
where the round tower was located
and the man told him that he did
not know, but that if he (Dwight)
would ask the man who kept the
cows he would find where the
round tower was. Dwight remem-
bered what the woman had told
him SO he pulled out his sword
and cut OF the head Of the man.
Dwight went on until he came to
the man and asked where the round
tower was and the man said that he
didn't know and that for him to
ask the old woman who kept the
hens. Dwight again pulled out his
sword and cut the mans head off.
After leaving the man who had
the cows, Dwight found the old
woman who had the hens. He
asked her if she knew where the
round tower was located and she
told him to go to certain hill
and on the top of it he would see
the round tower She also told
him that if he would walk around
it three times the door would open
and he could enter. Remembering
the words of the wise woman he
cut off the head of the woman
with the hens.
Dwight went to the tower and
when the door came open he saw
his sister and ran to greet her.
Bernona was very glad to see him,
but said, Kind Dwight 1t will be
sorry day for you if the king of
the elves catches you here"
Presently the king came in and
said, 'Fe-fi-fl-fum, smell the
blood of an Englishman." Then
Dwight and the king began fight
ing and finally the king gave up,
and said that Dwight could take
his sister and brothers and 60
home. Then the Princess BernOna
and her brothers went home to the
Queen Elizabeth, and they lived
happy ever after.-Lenora Gruber,

Backs Out After Making
All Arrangements
DUN NOW CLAIMS TITLE

The three-game baseball series for the
minor league championship of Philadel-
phia is off, as Amber refuses to play.
according TO NJ. Mackenzie, president of.
the II. G. Dun Athletic Association. He.,
therefore. has claimed the champions
ship of Philadelphia, and unless the
Amber management can give a salts
factory answer his team should be
awarded the same, especially " his ver-
sion of the affair is correct.
According to Mackenzie arrangements
fer the series were made in his presence
by President Harold C. Pike. of the
Montgomery County League. and
Charles McCrea, president of the Main
Line League.
Manager Mackenzie added: "Presi-
dent Pike evidently had authority to
make the arrangements. as we had given
the same to McCrea. The games were
all proposed, Manager Fred Claughley
in my nresence, and ether witnesses were
on had. Mr.. Pike even went so far as
to call Manager Amey, of Amber, on
the phone and tell him what had been
arranged and the latter put his verbal
o. X. on the series.
II proceeded with the printing of tick
cts and posters and received the same
on Wednesday and later was told Am
bier had called off the games after all
our expense. Last Saturday Amber
played Olney at Olney and was defeated,
we shut out Harrowgate, 80. and as our
pitcher, Bill Greene, Is going so well.
just think they are afraid of us.
They claim that 1t would be inn
possible to play on account of the loss
of two players. but eventualities of this
kind had been carefully covered, and it
was agreed in such a case the team
affected could replace the men.
I'VE lost our first baseman. and yet
were willing to go ahead. and l under
stand that Amber will play on the
home grounds with Olney as its oppo-
nent. 1 certainly think that in view OF
this evidence Dun & Co. should receive
the championship"
Harrowgate will close the most suc-
cessful season of any independent nine
in the city with a return game with
Hog Island. Ten thousand spectators
saw Johnny Castles proteges defeat
Harrowgate / to 0 two weeks ago. and
the shipyard nine was chosen TO close
the season at Kensington avenue and
