When Mary Had A
Valentine Party

Mary was a little girl who lived
in New York city. 1t was growing
near Valentines Day. Mary plan
ned that she would ask her father
if she could have a party and in
vite her friends. At the supper
table that night she asked her faith
er if she could have party. Her
father said YES" She was so
happy that she did not eat any
supper. Every afternoon, Mary's
mother would miss her. She would
find her in the basement working
at something. At last, the night
came when she was going to have
her party. Each guest received a
little Valentine which had these
words on it, Il wish you Happy
Valentine" At last the time came
for the children to 60 home. They
had had a lovely time-Chester

Two Bold OUTLAWS
in Mexico

Once two Americans went across
the border of Mexico to hunt gold.
They had gone long way till they
reached mountain where they
were sure that gold could be
found. They knew that Mexicans
were mean so they took pains to
hide all their tracks and to watch
out for them. They proceeded on
few miles till up in the mountain
they knew had gold, then they
looked for signs. On coming to a
hollow in the hill, they stopped,
dog and all, and one of the Ameri-
cans found gold. 1t came in large
nuggets. They picked 1t up and
put it in a sack and tied 1t to the
saddle horn on their horses and
kept this up till the sacks were all
full and then they started home.
They had to camp along the edge
of the mountain that night and two
Mexicans robbed them while they
slept.-Herschel Gregg, age 13, But
Ter township, school No. 7.

Robert, the Trapper,
Has Luck in Maine

There was once a man that liv-
ed all alone on a mOuntain-slde,
near Ishpening and his name was
Robert. He lived in a log cabin
and had some skins, and he trap
ped in the forest. One winter
when the first snow fell he set his
traps. But there twas a Wolverine
that stayed there in the forest in
the winter time and when Robert
set his traps he could not catch
anything. He would go out and
find his traps dragged away and
they would be empty and lots of
tracks around 1t. So one morning
he went out real early about 2
o'clock in the morning and when
he got near the traps he saw a
wolf in one trap and another ami
NAL in the other one. The same
wolverine was there just ready to
kill the wolf. The hunter took the
gun and started to aim but to his
misfortune the wind was blowing
that way, and the wolverines are
very keen and would follow Rob-
ert wherever he went and see
where he set his traps and snares.
The wolverines kept getting Rob-
ert's animals, that he caught and
when <the winter was over he had
nothing to show for it.
SO he thought If the wolverines
were there next winter he would
not be able to live because the VOL
verines would catch everything
that Robert caught. So he thought
he would go to Maine. So he start
ed. 1t was a long journey but he
finally got there. The cabin was
warm and dry and heavy snow had
fallen and it was just right for
snowshoes. 1t was noon, by now
and so he sat down to warm din
ner. When he got through, Rob-
ert got up, put on lots of heavy
