thought a military man would be a

sensus of opinion being that If the
number OF delegates was to be in

The Two Ness's.

By Nola Kerms, Aged 13. Aurora, Neb Blue
Side.
Dear Editor: Once there were two words
in land where people could not tell one
word from another.
They were called The Two Nesss." They
we're very unhappy for they had heard of
words that had different meanings or
names.
So one day these two ness's decided to
see II they couldn't separate and earn bet
ter names the same as other words had
done.
separate and each one go far away and
stay for year. Then come back to where
they started from.
So they started and one went to the
far south over rivers. trees, plains, and
deserts. Until II came to a town in a hot
country where the hot sun poured down
upon the people without mercy. 1t stopped
at house where woman and little baby
lived. The baby was sick and the woman
was afarid 1t would not get well. So at
each evening she would so to the door and
look to see II she could see any signs of
rain and would say to herself, ut will surely
rain tomorrow and my baby will get well"
But 1t died in few days. This ness's name
was hopefulness.
while there went up the mountain not far
from home to a girls cottage. There 1t
stayed all year
Whenever there was no bread in the
house she would say, Too much to eat
makes me lazy" Or IL she broke a dish
she would say, II never liked that one
very well anyway" and would be just as
cheerful as ever.
This nesss name was Happiness.
When the year was up both returned and
told their story.
/ hope to seethls in print.

To Society Bees

A IL the younger girls in Omaha
"A are SO sorry that Brownell Hall is
going to close, for we were looking
forward to happy school days there.
One of the jolliest and prettest
parties ever held at Brownell Hall
was given last Saturday. 1t was a
Mother Goose carnival, and most of
the day students took part dressed as
Mother Goose characters. There
was wishing we'll, where punch was
sold, a Holland booth for ice cream
cones, Swiss peasants sold cookies
and in a yellow booth that was
trimmed in daffodills war candy made
entirely without sugar was for sale.
The girls called this yellow booth
"taffydille booth"
The program was in charge Of Miss
Robertson and Miss Higginbottom,
two popular teachers. As the
Mother Goose rhymes were acted in
pantomine chorus sang the verse,
and $50 was cleared for the French
orphans. Some of the students who
worked hard to make the carnival
success were Virginia Barker, Eliza
beth Barker, Eleanor Smith, Esther
Smith, Katherine Smith, Maurine
Richardson, Marjorie Ribble and
Elizabeth Mcdonald.
We hope that there will be as nice
a school here at home when we are
high school juniors. Lovingly,
MARGARET.

himself around slowly, that all might
examine his person.
He must have been a good tailor,
said the Scarecrow, somewhat en-
viously.
He was good-hearted tailor, at
any rate" observed Nick Chopper.
But where were you going, when
you met us?" Tip asked the Woggle-
Bug,
Nowhere in particular" was the
reply, although it is my intention
soon to visit the Emerald City and
arrange to give a course Of lectures to
select audiences on the Advantages
| of Magnihcation."
"We are bound for the Emerald
City now," said the Tin Woodman;
so if it pleases you to do so, you
are welcome to travel in our COM
| pany." ..
The Woggle-Bug bowed with pro-
| found grace,
1T will give me great pleasure"
said he, ito accept your kind invita-
ton; for nowhere in the Land of Or
could | hope to meet so congenial
company"
"That is true" acknowledged the
Pumpkinhead. "We are quite as con-
genial as flies and honey
"But-pardon me if / seem in
quisitive-are you not all rather
ahem!--rather unusual?" asked the
Woggle-Bug, looking from one to
another with unconcealed interest.
"Not more so than yourself" an
swered the Scarecrow. Everything
in life is unusual until you get ac-
customed to it."
what rare philosophy explained
the Woggle-Bug, admiringly.
"Yes; my brains are working well
today" admitted the Scarecrow, an
accent of pride in his voice.
Then, if you are sufficiently
rested and refreshed, let US bend our
steps toward the Emerald City," sug-
gested the magnihed one.
"We can't" said Tip. "The Saw
Horse has broken a leg, so he can't
bend his steps. And there is no wood
around to make him a new limb from.
And we can't leave the horse behind
because the Pumpkinhead is so stiff
in his joints that he has to ride"
How very unfortunatep cried the
Woggle-Bug. Then he looked the
party over carefully and said:
"lf the Pumpkinhead is to ride,
why not use one of his legs to make
a leg for the horse that carries him?
| judge that both are made of wood"
Now, that is what | call real
cleverness," said the Scarecrow, ap-
provingly. al wonder my brains did
not think of that long agol Get to
work, my dead Nick, and fit the
Pumpkinhead's leg to the Saw
Horse"
Jack was not especially pleased
with this idea; but he submitted to
having his left leg amputated by the
Tin Woodman and whitfield down to
fit the left leg of the Saw-Horse. Nor
was the Saw-Horse especially pleased
with the operation, either; for he
growled good deal about being
"butchered," as he called it, and after
ward declared that the new leg was
disgrace to a respectable Saw
Horse.
Il beg you to be more careful in
your speech" said the Pumpkinhead,
sharply. Remember, if you please,
that it is my leg you are abusing"
II cannot forget it," retorted the
Saw-Horse, "for it is quite as flimsy
as the rest of your person"
"Flimsyl me himsyp cried Jack, in
a rage. How dare you call me
fimsy"
Because you are built as absurdly

as jumpingjack," sneered the horse,
rolling his knotty eyes in a vicious
manner. Even your head won't stay
straight, and you never can tell
whether you are looking backward or
forwardp
Friends, entreat you not to quar-
relp pleaded the Tin Woodman,
anxiously. "As a matter of fact, we
are none of us above criticism; so let
us bear with each others faults"
"An excellent suggestion" said the
Woggle-Bug, approvingly. you
must have an excellent heart, my
metallic friend"
81 have" returned Nick, we'll
pleased. MY heart is quite the best
part of me. But now let US start
upon our journey"
They perched the one-legged
Pumpkinhead upon the Saw-Horse,
and tied him to his seat with cords,
so that he could not possibly fall
off.
And then, following the lead OF the
Scarecrow, they all advanced in the
direction of the Emerald City.
