Pillow Fights With the Boys.

White House. March 19. 1905. Darling Kermit:
 During the four days mother was away I made a point of seeing the chill dren each evening for three quarters of an hour or so. Archie and Quentin are really great playmates. One night came upstairs and found Quentin playing the pianola as hard as he could, while Archie would suddenly start from the end of the hall where the pianola was, and. accompanied by both the dogs, race as hard as he could the whole length of the White Rouse clean to the other end of the hall and back again. Another evening as I came upstairs I found Archie and Quentin having a great play. chuck ling with laughter, Archie driving Quentin by his suspenders. which were fixed to the ends of woolen reins. Then they would ambush me and we would have vigorous pillow fight, and after five or ten minutes of this we would go into mothers room and would read them the book mother had been reading them, "The Legend of MOntrose." We just got through it the very last even ing. Both Skip and Jack have well comed mother back with frantic joy, and this morning came in and lay on her bed as soon as she had finished breakfast-for she did not come down to either breakfast or lunch, as she IS going to spend the night at Baltimore with the Bonapartes.
 I was so interested in your reading "Phineas Finn" that I ordered copy myself. I have also ordered De Quin- cey's works, as I find we have not got them at the White House.

 Some of these names are perhapS misread. for childish chirogrskphy is sometimes uncertain. But anyone who can furnish information that will lead to the addresses of these children will confer as great a favor on the club as if they were to furnish money.

 Dear Dolly:
 l wish you a merry Christmas, and want you to buy whatever you think you would like with the enclosed check for twenty dollars. It is now just forty years since you stopped being my nurse, when l was a little boy of seven, just one year younger than Quentin now is.
 l wish you could see the children play here in the White House grounds For the last three days there has been snow, and Archie and Quentin and their cousin, cunning little Sheffield CoWles, and their other cousin, Mr. John Elliotts little girl, Helena, who is a perfect litle dear, have been having all kinds of romps in the snow-coast- ing, having snowbalI fights, and doing everything-in the grounds back of the White House. This coming Satur- day afternoon l have agreed to have great play of hide and go seek in the White House itself, not only with these children but with their various small friends.

present chairman of the new board
S. NJ Snyder.
Their work has been particularly
careful and with unusual scrutiny
of every matter brought up before
the board
They have worked harmoniously
thruout the term.
With all due credit to Commits
sioners S. NJ. Snyder and C. A. Pitt
wood we wish especially to commend
to the taxpayers of Clearwater
County the executive ability and
conscientious administration of Com
missioner Fred Choate. He had the
advantage of two years more exper-
ience in county affairs than the 9TH
er commissioners and with this
knowledge was better equipped to
lead as Chairman. Much of the sue
cessful outcome of the county's IL
nancial affairs is due to Mr. Choate.
Mr. Snyder was elected Chairman of
the new board and with the eXper-
ience of the past two years and the
resultant experience of the coming
two years. we hope and believe he
will have record for efficient
handling of county affairs in keep
ing with his predecessor.
J. B. Dickson and Charles Hall,
the other two members of the board
are both successful farmers and
careful business men. Clearwater
county should feel safe in the con-
duct of their affaires in the hands
of the present board of county COM
missioners.
