Babes 'in ths Wood.

Babes in the Wood. My dear, dc you know Row a long time age,
 Two poor little children, Whose names I do not. know, Were stolen away on fine summers day, And left in wood. as I've heard peo- ple say7..a. M And when 1t was night, So sad was their plight, The sun 1t went down, And the moon gave no light. They sobbed and they sighed and~they
 bitterly cried. And the poor little things, they lay
 down and died. And when they were dead, The robins so red - Brought strawberry leaves, And over them spread, And all day long They sung them song: Poor babes in the woodl Poor babes
 in the wood And don't you remember the babes in
 the wood ?'

Our Red Cross Play.

Dear Uncle Jed: I am writing you about play that eight girls and 1 gave in June. The names of the girls are Rose Toffel, Hannah Curland, Lil- Han and Rose Goidstein, Ate Seit, Rose Weiner, Bertha Kenlg, Sarah Norvick and myself.
 At the play we collected four dol lars which was given to the Red Cross There were many people present The play took place in the orchard of Mr. and Mrs. Levine on Spring street The plays were as follows:
 The Wounded Soldiers Prayer Rose Goldstein, wounded soldier; Bea- trice Ableman, and Bertha6 Kerig, Red Cross nurses.
 Four Pilgrim Maids-Lillian and Rose Goldstein. Ate Belt and Sarah Norvick, pilgrim maids; Rose Tofel Mrs. Aglly.
 The Golden Ball-Beatrice Able r1an, millionaire: Bertha Kenig, his wife; Rose Weiner, his daughter; Lil- pl&ymates; Sarah Norvick, her lover; Hannah Curland, his other daughter; Rose Goidstein, captain. Jennie's Valentine-Rose Toffel Jenny, a poor girl: Lillian Goldstein, her mother; Ate Belt, Grace; Beatrice Ableman and Sarah Norvick, her playmates: Rose Goldsteil1, saleswo- man.
 After the plays were given these songs were sung: Keep the Home Fires Burning, It's a Long, Long Trail Awindlng, Buy, Buy Till the Boys i Come Home.
 Rose Weiner danced a few dances | and Lillian Goldstein sang | few songs. At the end of the entertain rnent the Star Spangled Banner and other patriotic songs were sung by aii. The audience was so pleased with the acts of the Wounded So'- dier's Prayer and The Golden Fall, that the children were asked to play l them over again The Wounded Sol- dier's Prayer was Q short play. Tha 1 Red Cross nurses spoke to the wound- cd soldier said his dying prayer that he composed all himself.
 The Wounded soE1er's Prayer Dig for me a grave, Q. God!
 Far from the Prdssian foe
 Far from the battlefield, Where the peaceful flowers grow,
 And where the unstained rivers flow, Grant it to me, dear God! l While in my grave lie. Let the cruel rod of tyranny Die, die, die.
 l The entertainment was applauded 1 by the, audience and the people went home very happy.

Dear Uncle Jed: r. had always been the habit in our school for the grad uating class to have party the day after the graduation. At the party ice cream. cake. candies and other goodies were served
 I graduated in the month of June after the war had been declared with Germany.
 It was decided that instead of vast ing all the sugar, flour and other things for the ice cream. candy and cake, we would have hike" We had to start early in the morning and walk far out into the country. We all came home tired. but happy. Ev- erybody had a nice time, and yet. at the same time, we had helped Uncle Sam and obeyed MT. Hoover by con- serving sugar and four.

 Six of us decided 10 go, and we started early in the day.
 We took a trolley as far as the sta- ton and then took the train through he subway. EN -a...
 The subway is an underground pas sage and is very dark, but Is lighted by electric lights When we. got to the. city we went to the edge Of the Hudson to see the boats come and go.
 After staying there a while, we had a ride on a merry go-round
 We saw a great many buildings known as .skyscrapers, because they seemed to touch. the sky, and were told that they were built so high be- cause of the dense population. 90 that a great number of families might five in one house. ,. n.

The Party Mamma Foraot,


 l Dear Uncle Jed: It was nearing Bessie's birthday, and Bessie, as you may know. was very glad about it. Mamma was busy all the time and she didn't even think of her daughters tirth6ay.
 One day Bessie carue to her, and asked, Mamma, may 1 have party on my birthday which is coming soon ?''
 Mamma thought moment and then answered, Yes. my dear, you may" | This made Bessie so glad that she couldn't help thinking of it ali the time. She went out on the porch and sat on the swing and kept swinging lfor an hour or two. While swinging she was always thinking about the party she was to have and whom she should invite
 At last mamma came out and sat on the porch swing with Bessie Bes- sic was always thinking of her birth day, while her mamma was not In little while Bessie thought of whom to invite.
 First she said, Mamma, when you told me that I could have a party on l my birthday I came and sat here on this swing, and thought of whom to , invite" T think I will invite my teacher, my schoolmates, grandma, grandpa, ] and all the rest Of my friends, but s you and papa dear must be there
 "All right" said mamma, 'T think that you are going to have a good Q time on your birthday" e Bessie was so glad that day for e mamma always did what she said e she was going to do and now she was = to let Bessie have a birthday party.
 The next day Bessie went to schoo $ with many glad thoughts. When sht Ii reached the schoolhouse door, thu > schoolchildren were all playing games g She called them all into the school e room where the teacher was. Bessie
 told them that she was going to have IS birthday party soon and she wished y them all to be there
 q They each gave her a kind answer d After school was dismissed, wher g Bessie got home. she went to sprea, y her glad news in every one of he
 friends home
 Is Friday when Bessie went to schoc 1T again the children all spied broa. l! smile on her face. But before the of each started to speak Bessie welcome I. them and told them that the part le was to take place on the followin -- Saturday. se When the day came Bessie was u III early in the morning, in a little whil se she was alr through with her break Id fast so she went to meet her friends
 But surely mamma didn't think any
 thing about the party. And wte
 Bessie marched into the hall with he
 friends mamma called Bessie and tol
 her to stay in the hall until she calle 4n her and the others. Mamma was sor l. ry that she forgot about the party, br " still she was glad because Bessi ty didn't know 1t
 CT Mamma told papa about the part,
 so soon papa was off for the town i 1e buy the dainties. While papa wa tn gone mamma was setting She table
 Papa was soon back from the tov1 t. so both he and mamma were busy CT Mamma was placing the things i nd order on the table, while papa wa Je unwrapping them. nd When the table was all dresse Ve mamma opened the door and bad v- each one to take place at the tabl al Everybody al the party had pre-. le ent for Bessie
 h. When each. sat himself in q con
 fortabie chair grandma and grandr
 smiled for they wondered how in Il
 world could Bessie ever get up sut

Catching Up.

There, l wanted to tell papa some thing before he went to town. I'm going to see if I can catch him. And with that Ellis was off as fast as a pair of rather short legs could carry him So hard did he run that he caught up to his father before he reached the station, and told him his message.
 You may overtake a friend who has got the start of you, but there is one thing you can never catch up with, and that is time. If you let one min ute get away from you, you can never overtake it, try your hardest.

Dear Uncle Jed: will tell you what I have been doing this summer. T visited in Norwich for ten days the first of July. When I came home we began to pick huckleberries
 My sister and I picked enough for four quarts of canned berries and each received half dollar. I bought Thrift stamps with mine. also picked sev- eral quarts for my mother. | hate to pick berries, so only went few times.
 I have helped my mother with the housework good deal. She says she will greatly miss me when I begin go- ing to the Academy, as will stay in Norwich.
 I have worked in my flower garden a lot and certainly have plenty of flowers I have the most of bachelors buttons and cosmos. I also have cal- endulas, nasturtiums, four o'clocks, pi1ks, zinnias and several other kinds of which I do not know the names. bought some firebush seed but it didn't come up.
 We have been in the brook back of the house a lot and I have tried to learn to swim, but have so far only succeeded in keeping afloat MILDRED GRANDY. Age 13. Yantic.

party even though Bessie didn't get the party up by herself.
 After they all left the table they played games. ran races and did most everything else so as to let Bessie have a good time on her birthday When all were going home they each handed Bessie a present. And with kind thank you they were of, thinking that they had had a good time.
