Booster" Campaign
Launched at "Y"

Perhaps you remember a time
when your pal and you were hik-
ing it down country road one
summers day and all Of a sudden
you looked up and saw the juiciest
looking apple imaginable dangling
over the roadway from the apple
tree inside the fence But the ap-
pie, alas was beyond your reach.
What could be done? Your pal
was no taller than you, still-oh,
all of sudden you had thought.
Your pal could climb up on your
hands and on the high fence with
you pushing him. So the apple
was Secondhand, oh my, didn't it
taste good-and all because of a
little boosting" Something mighty
good was reached by little climb
ing and little boosting"
That's the idea in the Booster"
campaign now being carried on in
the Boys Division of the "Y" under
the direction Of Mr.. Beatty, Boys
Secretary,-to help other fellows
to reach the good things" of the
"Y" by little boosting done by
the fellows who know what dandy
thing it is to be "Y" member.
The contest began the first of
April and will close May 31st.
Each month there will be Boost
ers" feed. Each boy who is at
present a member of the associa-
ton and who has brought in, at
least one new member can come
to these feeds" These boys will
have their names placed on the
Honor Roll Of the Boys Division.
At the end of the second month,
each boy who has brought in six or
more new members will receive a
beauty of gold button. Those
who have secured four new mem
bers will receive a silver button,
and those who have brought in two
members will be awarded bronze
button. All these buttons are good
looking and worth while to own,
and best Of all there will be a big
ger bunch of fellows to have good
times with, at the "Y."

We Had A Fine Time

One Friday evening when l came
home from school it had been snow
ing. So l thought in the morning
l would make a snow man and a
fort. l went over and told my
cousin to come over in the morn
ing about o'clock. l could hardly
wait, but 7 o'clock came. told
him l was going to make a snow
man and a fort. He said, "All
right" We went to work to make
the snow man. About the time my
cousin had a nice big SNOWFALL roll
ed up he slipped and got his face
full of snow. said, Let's go in
and get warm"
We went in and got warm and
came out again. We made the
snow man in about Is minutes.
The snow fort was easy to make.
My cousin got behind the fort and
began snowballing me instead Of
the snow man. He hit me in the
side of the face. l picked up a
SNOWFALL and hit him in the same
place We had fine time the rest
of the morning.-Robert Chestnut,

Verses of Spring

l love the merry spring.
When the birds begin to sing,
When the violets raise their heads
And the crocus peeps out of her bed
Have you heard the brook as it
flows along?
Have you heard the robin sing his
CHEEKY song?
Have you heard the south wind
whisper to the trees?
Saying to the little buds
You better put out your leaves.
There was a little bluebird sitting
in tree
He chirped and he sang as happy
as could be.

The brown thrush is a pretty bird
And wears speckled breast
He sits up in the tallest trees
And sings and sings his best.

Why | know, answered her mother
after a long hesitation, why don't
you call your girl friends and ask
them to go up to the attic. There
are lot of things up there to do.
Just the thing, said Helen Louise.
| will go after them in the ma

mother.
She was back in about 20 min

lie Smith, Harriet Burns, Opal La

The attic was large room with
two trunks, two broken down
chairs, an old stand table, dresser,

it.
Oh, let's dress up, sighed Har-

dress up. Oh, no, let's look in the
other trunk. There was not much
only two hats, one pair slippers,
some plumes, and other articles.
Now let's dress up, cried Harriet.
Oh, well come on girls. You are
my company. So each put on an
old fashion dress. Nellie Smith

wall. 1t was little door with wall
paper over it.
Oh, cried Helen, getting excited,
what is it, what is it. In it was a

small silver ring with ruby sets in
it. Inside there was H. M. B.
Helen took it to her mother. Her
mother said it was her greatmoth-

1t was time to go home then.
Each of the girls said goodbye to
