ments. In one lived the White
family. Mr.. Jack White, Mrs, Hell
en- White, and little Margaret. Mar
garet vas ten years old. She had
many friends and playmates and
parties and lot of fun.
One day Jack White came home
and said they were going to move.
Margaret was very sorry TO leave
her city friends and plays.
But the idea of the suburban
home. The making of gardens and
keeping of her pets.
So the next day was busy one
Mrs. White was packing all the
household goods and clothing.
In the afternoon they went to call
on some of their friends to say
goodbye.
The next day they moved to their
new home, Ludlow street, at quiet
the west end. The house was a
queer Bungalow, on a very large
lot.
The next day was the Goth of
May and school would be out on
the 25th of May.
Mrs. White was making a new
dress for Margaret when tap
came at the door. Mrs. White hast
ened to answer it. She opened the
door to find a pretty blue eyed girl
there.
She said: Mrs. White, may Mag
gle come out to play.
Mrs. White was glad to hear that
Margaret had made friends with
the children SO quick
She told the child that Margaret
had gone to the store to get some
things, and would soon be back
Mrs. White said: "My dear" what
is your name and where do you

Maggie going to school.
I'VE became friends at once |
like her very much. came to see
if we could go walking together
We can get many nice flowers,
Jeanette Brown"
Margaret's mother said: Eyes,
Margaret may go but please be
careful, will you? | do not want
you and Margaret to get hurt by
any means"
Very soon after Margaret came
home, Then the girls started and
were soon gathering flowers in the
woods below. AS the girls were
walking along each straining to see
a strange flower or more so they
were looking for pussy willows.
Then at last they came to an old
oak tree. At the side of deep
brook. The girls stood wondering |
how to cross twig broke beneath |
the weight of an old dog which had
been turned out by nearby far
mer to starve and die. This fright |
ened Margaret and she fell into the |
stream from her perch on the tree.
Now Margaret could not swim and
kept on struggling. Finally Eileen,
who was very heavy, jumped into
the stream and called the dog to
help her. The dog jumped in and
helped to drag Margaret to shore.
The girls succeeded in getting their |
clothes dry.
The girls were very frightened
by the accident. They started for
home. They could not decide
which one should keep the good |
little dog. The dog should belong
to you and | Eileen. Now what
shall we name him? We will call
him "Bouser"
The next days passed away pleas
antly. With their new dog for a
playmate.
One day Margaret got an invita-

party which was to be on the 25th |
of August. The 25th of August |
came at last and Margaret was
ready long before the party and
had her presents wrapped up and
started off when the time came.
The party went on nicely and just !

the children had gone but Margaret
