ANOTHER TALK WITH THE MEM

Ny dear Girls and BOYS:

Ny dear Girls and Boys:
First read the letter from an old
member in the correspondence col
umn and ;hen come back 10 mine and
listen carefully TO what have 20
say, for it is very serious matter
II is about what mean by Original"
and the fact that every now and then
4 member copies u story or poem out
OF book or their reader and sends
It in to the page as their own. Now.
children mine, / know very we'll that
you haven't the faintcst idea OF he
ing unfair or Of claiming something
for yours that is not really your own.
know that n great many of you are
so little that 1t is hard 10 understand
what l mean by Original" Tho rules
say that you can send in stories you
have heard or read Rewritten in your
own words. bu, You must not copy
them ana send them in, just as you
must not trace drawings on thin
pieces OF paper SIT maybe that Is the
part that confuses you. Once before
explained TO you that if you took
some one else's hat and put 1t on
your head and said: This is my hat"
that Is exactly the same thing you
do when YOU copy somebody else's
story and sign your name at the bot
tom. thereby saying. This is my
story" See If your mother or father
can't explain il to you II that does
Ect make 1t clear.
The club is 10 help you write and
draw better and give you pleasure at
the same time. so we can all be
friends together and write each other
letters and play in contests and such
things, so that is why we want TO see
what is best that every single mem
Der can do, not what they can copy.
know perfectly we'll that the mem
Der who copied the story the other

what was wrong, and that is why |

The trees swayed and sighed as they
stood on the hill.
The tombs,oncs were silent and
gray,
For they had seen many funeral

The birds chirped no longer, for the
night had begun.
But their songs were heard again at
the rising OF the sun.

For it had time 10 stop at neither
