Some in pink, and some in blme.
And all u, silken goa0n.
0UT in the Land Of Olie-ke-wob
the Little Shavers held fam
lily council. Thomas Squeelix,
Patsy Doola and Ketsy Piper stood
. on one end of the squashy sofa and
the Princess and the Baby leaned
against the cushions opposite them.
New York at Christmas time was
the subject of the discussion.
Thomas Squeelix and Patsy Doola
and Ketsy Piper thought it was high
time that some of the Little Shavers
looked into the business Of holiday
time in New York.
Now, in the land Of Olie-ke-wob
the saying is: "See Christmas in
New York and die"
Olie-ke-wob, it must be explained,
is the Land That Never Wuz. The
Idle" part means die in respect to
Olie-ke-wob, for the people from
thst land who come to New York
never go back to Never Wuz."
"Iet's send q though. letter to
Elsie Shaver" said Patsy Doola.
"She's in New York and might be
bile to do something for us. You

Inside the
Barn-School

The barn has been changed but
little, even the horses stalls be-
ing left as they were Except for the
inevitable coat of whitewash) and
used for store space. Partitions have
been erected to divide the first floor
into five rooms. The kitchen, a
space just beyond the stalls, contains
a sink, cook stove and a long, oil
cloth-covered table. Mrs. Anne Car
ruthers, in charge of the culinary
department, keeps everything i'm
maculate and serves delicious lunch
cons to the children. The dining
room is just large enough for the

pseem "catty" for one lady to say
this about another) is chiefly re-
markable for the fact that none of
her fine dresses can hide or distract
attention from her large feet. A
princess with large feet shades of
all our oldfashioned fairy tales! But
before you Yet yourself be preju-
diced against this grand lady, let
me remark that she is exceedingly
popular with other great ladies. The
princess fits right into the most

and every person who comes in con-
tact with one Of these beings ought
to be introduced by Elsie. She has an
understanding and insight into their
sunny natures that make them more
lovable, If that were possible.
Alongside of Elsie Shaver Is her
sister Dorothy, who should not be
overlooked. Dorothy is tall and
dark, and little older than Elsie.
She is the practical one in the
family. So, while Elsie created
the Little Shaver dolls, it is to be
doubted whether the Fifth Avenue
world would ever have met any of
them IT it hadn't been for Dorothy.
In fact, Dorothy is quite frank in
her evaporation at the workings of
genius.

And after all this time that l

OF the sort, she had an inspiration
for the Little Shavers at 3 o'clock
one very cold morning. And it was
so near Christmas that thought
we would never be able to get them
out in time"
Of course Dorothy knew that

long, bare-topped table with seven
teen chairs around it, and an old but
well-filled bookcase. Opening from
the dining room are two bathrooms,
enc for the girls, one for the boys,
each with a large tub in it, and be-
yond is a lean-to, where folding
khaki cots and reclining chairs,
which are used during the rest hour,
are kept. The bathrooms are also
used as storerooms in winter, al

Thomas if you had never met Patsy.
Thomas is usually dressed in fine
linen. His hair is red, and like
many men he is fond of being
"mothered." He says so himself:
81 have no Mother Phelix nor
Daddy Delix. I'm just Thomas
Squeelix all by myself. I want a
home, little bit of love and some
adoption"
You know that usually gets

short, the three thousand inhabi-
tants of this toy city are all going
about their own business, and are
vastly instructive as we'll as anus

the lights change-morning, noon
and evening come and go, lights
flash out, and then night settles
down on Toyland, but not until the
lights shine through the stained

child who takes this picture and
story in her or his hand and goes

Saturday, December 20, between
one o'clock and five, will be taken

we are confronted by the actual facts
that we realize the enormous handi-
caps under which some Of those who
are fighting the White Plague are
laboring. Then the little Red Seals
which we paste so gayly upon our
Christmas packages take In very
deep significance.
Perhaps the Orange Day Camp
School, located at Orange, N. j., is
one Of the most striking examples of
difficulties overcome in the warfare
against tuberculosis. This school for
sixteen tubercular children is an old,
tumble-down barn. Not an up-to-
date, made-over stable studio, but
real barn, with huge, rickcty doors
on rusty hinges; wide, uneven board
nooring across which drafts sweep
from the chinks in the ancient walls,
and great. high-ceilinged loft up
stairs, where the children spend their
rest hours in inclement weather.

though in summer the children are
given baths once or twice week, if
there is enough money on hand to
pay the water bills.
1t was during the rest hour after
luncheon that we met Miss Margaret

Of the Anti-Tuberculosis League in
Orange, who is in charge of the
school. The camp cots had been

A New
Triangle Plot

Now, in the Little Shaver family
a three-cornered race for popularity
is being made by Patsy Doola,
Thomas Squeelix and Ketsy Piper,
Undoubtedly you've discovered the
trend of my affections from my re-
marks about certain red-haired
people. But honestly, if l couldn't
have Patsy I'm sure l could be
happy with Thomas or Ketsy.
Ketsy Piper is very young and
quite scared. She is usually dressed
in yellow and continually puts her
hands up before her face because
she is so shy. Her frightened eyes
appeal to little children. They find
in her something they can comfort
and love; something that needs
them.
Thomas Squeelix is really a very
fine gentleman. AS I said before.

to grown-up children. The Business

that is exactly what Baby Olie-ge-
wob is.

ton. The East Orange Board Of
Education furnishes our teacher.
"Our barn, with this acre or so
Of land, was first loaned to us nine
years ago by Charles Lindsey,
president of the league; but within
this past year we have bought and
now own it. The barn, though
picturesque, is the draftiest old
place in the world, between you and
me; but the children are hardened,
so that cold does not affect them.
Still, we will be very glad when our
new building, which we hope to
erect in the near future, is COM
pleted.

round the barn. Mrs. Margaret
Myer, the motherly-looking assistant,
moved among her charges, quelling
a turbulent spirit here and there,
for heads would pop up to see "our
visitor" and arms and legs would
keep getting uncovered. Quiet
reigned, however, as soon as Miss
Orr came alertly up the drive, all
though we leaned against the side
Of the barn where she could keep
a calm but efficient gaze on the
long line Of cots. And as we talked
the murnur of sleepy, childish
voices drowsed away into silence.
How the
School Is Run
"This school," began Miss Orr, in
answer to our question, "is sup
ported almost entirely by the Anti
tuberculosis League, which has to
furnish the food, which must be of
the best; all the camp equipment,
such as the cots, blankets, ETC.; pay
the water and coal bills and for
all medical treatment that is outside
the dispensary department. We,
through our league, appeal to the
people, who are most generous in
responding; but it would be better
if we had organized help given to
US by all the boards Of education

they bring their tubercular trou-
bles with them from the old coun-
try~
"No, indeed" Miss Orr shook her
head emphatically. "The immigra-
ton laws have been too strict for
that. Most of these children are
Americans, and their tubercular
troubles began away back among
their ancestors. Our idea is to get
them here, give them good food,
plenty Of fresh air and exercise and
an equal amount Of rest; study them

touch that is just the thing to make
the hard-hearted business office
