Dear Cynthia am certainly glad TO
learn that my letter amused "Kensing-
ton" even though it's correct mission
was not driven into his (or her?) brain.
Listen, friend "Kensington." My letter
was written only as a personal suEges-
ton to Mr.. "a" I did not try TO hurt
any ones feelings on the subject OF neat
ness but ] am sure every one will agree
with me that when a man Is not neat,
and uses too much slang, he surely is
not worthy OF third meeting with any
girl who prides her dignity
Neatness certainly has its place in
every ones life, but when it comes TO
the stage where a sane man loses his
sanity" over it--why then ! agree with
you that II has gone too far. \ working
mans hands were not intended to be as
dainty and pretty as ladys. Regard.
ing the fact that some girls put too
much accent on their appearance, please,
please, "Kensington," do not class every
girl with that type.
But, even with such accent" most OF
those girls make a hit" Then. Ken
sington." explain II you can, why Mr..
"a" cannot make a similar hit with
the ladies'? "Mr. "a" we would like to
have your comment on this subject.

il You Have Magic Classes You Can See Them Dance

MOT long ago, there was little
~ patch OF ground just outside the
woods, which was brown and dead
looking.
Other places showed new grass
springing up, the trees above began to
be feathery with growth, and this place
staped ugly as IL Spring had hurried
past Il so fast that she had forgotten
to drop anything there out of her seed
bag.
And then one day we went by and
looked ont TO see whether it looked any
better, and there was little. low, light
green table made Of May apples that
seemed to have sprung up in the night.
Some people think they came up Of
themselves, but we don't. We know IL
wasn't that. because we looked at the
ground through pair of magic glasses
that magnify things which most hu-
mans can't see.
And there, in little excited, busy cir
|cles, and criss crosses and triangles,
were thousands Of little fairy foot
prints.
NTE COULDN'T find out. whether they
w were really fairies. or just some
kind Of brownies or pixies.
Dimpiechin said right away that she
was sure that they were fairies, be-
cause she had seen q footprint like that

the new baby TO mother. .
But Twinkletoes thought IL must
have been something else, because fair
ies have wings and their feet wouldn't
touch the ground so much. Twinkletocs
is so practical
And 80 finally We decided that they
must have been n flock of greensprites

We wondered whether any Of then

moved on, so we got down on our hand,
