Toms Escape

Once upon a time a little boy
lived with his father and mother
on a high mountain. His name was
Tom Tom loved his parents very
much. but yet he was not satisfied.
So one day he told his mother he
was going hunting. His mother
said for him not to go, but Tom
did not always obey his parents.
So Tom took his gun and started.
He had not gone far when he saw
bear lurking near his den. Tom
shot at the bear but missed him.
This made the bear angry, so he
went after Tom. but Tom ran up a
tree and the bear stood below.
Toms heart beat rapidly, he saw
the bears great head just below
him; he heard the bears deep
breathing. Tom was very much
afraid. He suddenly heard a man 8
voice. How happy he was! 1t was
his fathers voice. Crack! sounded
the hunters gun, the bear fell over
dead. Soon Tom was safe in his
fathers arms.

The dolls House

There ia a camp IN California
wherc there are many very inter
esting things. It's name is Green
Dragon Camp II Is made w of
many beautiful and odd shaped lit.
tic houses. with quaint and artistic
names. and all OF them overlook
the sea Some OF these names are:
The Studio. The Wigwam, The Hut,
The Gables, The Brown Bear and
The Ark.
The Ark Is one OF the most In
teresting Of them all. as 1t is a most
inviting little house built to look
like what we thought the real
Noah's Ark looked like some thou
sand centuries ago. 1t Is long and
has real port holes for windows
through which its lucky occupants
look out over the sea.
The Camp Is owned and run by
big-hearted. capable and alto
gether enjoyable woman, named
Madame Kermick- She wears her
hair cut short and dresses very
oddly. but everyone likes her and
finds her interesting. She has al.
ways been very fond of dolls and
has quite a collection OF them of
all natiOnalities.
Madame Kermick lives in q tiny
little cottage called "The Doll
House." and one whole room Is
filled with these curious dolls.
which she charges people a quarter
to see. Some of her friends who
know this hobby Of hers. have sent
many beautiful and interesting
dolls. Ellen Terry, Helen Nodes.
ka and many other famous actress.
es and musicians have sent dolls to
Madame Kerlmick.
Some day. perhaps, some Of US
will be able to meet this delightful
woman and be visitors in her
DOLLS House."
We must thank Mrs. Osborne for
this story about the dolls, because
her sister who is staying in 1.-THE
Ark" In La Jolla. California. wrote
her all about IT, ard knowing that
the Juniors would be interested in
It, she gave It to the Junior

A Christmas in the
Kentucky Mountains

Christmas was happy time at
Oneida Institute. a school in the
mountains Of Kentucky. True, the
weather man was little late with
his Christmas weather, for 1t had
been very warm and sunny, but
Christmas day brought a cold wind
and in the evening we received the
first snow-flakes Of the season.
The big Christmas tree was
brought in from the woods the day
before, together with holly, ever.
greens, laurels. ferns and rhode
dendron, with which we decorated
Anderson Hall and the big dining.
room at the dormitory. The tree
occupied corner of the dining.
room and was beautifully decorat-
ed by the teachers and workers.
Owing to the kindness OF friends on
the outside there were presents
Tor all. and the Superintendent Of
the school and his wife provided
peanuts tor each, as their share in
the festivities.
After supper we had a program
OF music and recitations which
would compare favorably with any
we have ever heard, even the
smallest girl taking part in the
program. Then Santa Claus en-
tered, a Santa Claus who said he
was from the North Pole, and Le
began to hand the presents froto
the tree. Everyone went home lad
en- and happy to wait for Christ.
mas morning.
Very, very early on Christmas
morning. the larger girls, chaper
oned by one OF the workers, went
through the village singing Christ
mas carols. How sweet it sounded
up here in the mountains before
the day broke to hear the fresh
young voices singing Joy to the
World. the Lord Is Come" Here
and there window opened and
quiet thanks were called out to the
singers ere they stole away. Al
the breakfast table the superinten-
dent read the Christmas story from
Matthew and we started the day
happily with hymn Of praise. Or
course we had turkey dinner. for
we grow fine turkeys here. One OF
ours weighed thirty-one pounds.
After dinner the older boys and
girls enjoyed party in the music
room at Anderson Hall. The young.
er ones came later and the big
room rang with laughter and mer-
riment. There were some piano &c.
lectiOns and we sang the old famil-
liar songs. Surely. it was happy.
