Down to the cornfield went brave
Uncle Wiggily with the animal

how could you hear the talk of the
two bad chaps?"

the speaking cornstalk. That's
what ears-even corn ears-are for.
We heard the Zoop make up this

you how to fool him"

stretched all around Uncle wiggily'.

A BIG SUCCESS
~ AT HOME WITH SMALL COST

To change the home into a cooler
looking place was easy, and she was
more than repaid for the effort by the
saving of time and energy in the
cleaning. The heavy draperies. all
bric-a-brac and the unnecessary dust
catchers were slowed away, and the
linen table cloths gave way to lunch
con cloths sometimes and once in a
while to paper luncheon sets.
Because each member of the fam
lily made a sincere effort to cause as
little work as possible and because
only the cool hours of the mornings
were used for the heavier work. both
Mrs. Brown and Margaret were able
to spend some time each day enjoy
ing the pleasures they associated with
vacation.
Bobbie's "Just-for-fun" reason
was not overlooked, either. for his
father realized that that included
camping out, baseball games,
swimming, fishing and being with
other boys. His desire for camping
out was gratified by a small tent
pitched in the yard close to the
sleeping porch where the family
slept. One day. after about q
month of the summer had gone.
Mrs. Brown was much gratifled to
hear the small boy informing some
of his friends. II tell you. fellows.
a vacation at home is great. We
had heaps OF fun at picnics and
dad has taught me two new
strokes. If your folks aren't going
away this summer you had better

1t was impossible for the Brown
family to leave home for their usual
summer vacation. partially because
of business and partially because
the increased cost of living nad ta-
ken up too large a part of the vaca-
tIor fund. Not to be dominated by
such a situation, however, Mrs
Brown decided that her family
should have vacation at home. In
order to plan it, she asked cacn
member of the family to mako d
list of the reasons why he or she
particularly enjoyed leaving home
and this was result:
Mr.. Browns reasons were: Out
of-door life. swimming and fishing.
Her own were: Out-of-door life,
time for reading and a change from
the routine houscwork.
Margaret offered: Out-of-door life,
tennis. swimming and boating.
Bobbie's were summed up by:
Just for fun
To get these results, then, at home
was her ambition. In order that they
might spend as much time as DOS
sible out-of-doors, she prepared sim
pie picnic suppers and the family hied
themselves to the woods near the
little river. so that those who chose to
swim or fish might do so. When they
could not go so far away the screened
porch was made into a dining room,
in order that they still might be out
of-doors.

his last attempt to reach the ship,
was carried to a nelghboring house
while old Domingo and other friends
searched the Beach for the body of
Virginia.
At last in despair they started back
to tell Virginia's mother of the girls
tragic death. On the way some ne
groes told them that wreckage had
been driven in at Palm River Valley
and SO Domingo and his companion
turned aside to look once again for
the body.
There on the sand. half buried, vet
with a serene and beautiful face, lay
the maiden, richly clad. One hand
rested upon her gown, the other was
pressed to her heart and covered
picture of Paul.
Lifting her gently, the servants car
ried her to a fisherman's hut and left
her.
In the morning Paul was brought
home. He had regained his senses,
but he could not utter a word. His
coming brought a ray of hope.
After a beautiful and touching cere-
mony, in which the black people took
pert. they buried the lovely body
on the western side of the church, at
point where she had often rested
when on her way to mass with Paul,
and there a few weeks later they
brought his body in order that he
might rest forever by her side.
