Poor Richard! He Is
Truly "In the Soup"

Once upon time there was q
little boy named Richard. And his
mother said, Don't 60 to the
woods" And he did not mind his
mother. 1t was growing dark. He
saw two hunters, he followed them
and got lost. The hunters took
him to a deep cave. They were
mean men. He saw knives hang
ing all around. They fed him a
long while to get him fat to eat
him. One day he saw them sharp
ening their knives and they said to
him, 1--WE are going to have you
for soup" So the hunters had a
feast.-Josephine Bussen, grade BIB

Alden Treasure

On Horse Island there lived a
family who had a little boy and
girl. There were also a few ma
tives and a few white people. The
father owned the Island and raised
tropical fruits and sold them to
other countries. One day the moth
er told the children about the pir-
ates that brought chests Of gold
and silver to the Island and hid it.
Then the mother said it is time to
go to bed for a tropical storm was
coming so the children went to bed
so that they would not hear the
raging winds and waves Of the
ocean. And after they were
asleep, the father went to warn the
people that lived in straw huts
But the white people lived in big
fortress SO they were not afraid.
But about 9 o'clock the rain came
down in torrents. And the wind
blew fierce and the waves washed
out the big caves and made big
cliffs. And the wind blew down
the straw huts and trees and the
people ran to find shelter. And it
happened that one day after the
storm the little boy and girl were
out walking along the seashore.
