WHY THE COTTON MICE WE'RE.
AF9sA1P. I.
Tinker Bob took the Queen Of the
Tribe Of Cotton Mice and whispered
this question into her ear: what does
this all mean about Lady Duck"
The Queen looked at the King and
then at Lady Duck to make sure she
WA safe. Then she Whispered to the
King. At first he could not hear a
word she said because her whiskers
tickleu his ear SO that it made him
laugh. All the others thought that the
Queen was telling him 4 funny story.
but she wasn't. This Is what she said:
We. have all seen that Creature be-
fore and we are all afraid that dan
ger is near" 70.
Now it vas indeed strange to think
that Lady Duck would make any one
feel that danger was near. Tinker
Bob could not understand It. Said he:
Tell me why you should feel afraid
Of Lady Duck. I never knew her to
harm anyone in all her LIE. She is 4
kind creature"
n Queen of the tribe Of Cotton
Mice looked again to make sure that
Lady Duck was not going to come
after her. Then she said: "Oh, King Of
the Forest. once upon a time when
we were gathering out food for the
rainy season there came a messenger,
saying that in our midst were a num-
Der Of strange and noisy creatures.
Being very anxious to see what
these creatures we're like, and how
they acted. we sent 4 number of
young Mice out to look and bring us
back word. They found that these
strange creatures were wandering
about in q swamp near by. and they
were making 80 much noise that we
could not, sleep. They came here in
the night" and it sounded as though
the world was coming to an end. :, +,
"Rut. Oh King, the terrible thing
tnat happened was this, the young
Mice who were sent out to- see these
creaturea never came back to tell the
story" Big tears were standing in the
eyes OF the Queen, and Tinker Bob
saw thai she was very sad.

SOCIAL
YEAR is FINISHED

The midnight chimes struck last
night at II o'clock sounded the death
knell of what might we'll be acclaim
ed one of the gayest and most bril-
liant social years the city of Grand
Forks has ever witnessed. The pendu-
lum is swinging back towards old
fashioned customs, and homo enter
tanning at the Christmas and New
Year of 1890 seemed more
popular than ever. Perhaps It wa that
because so many of the homes last
year were bereft Of their young mon
and women n the service Of their
country. that there was this desire to
gather families about the hearth for
the best Of all the seasons-Christnnas.
: And the Yuletide n could no,
be singled out for it's brilliant affairs.
During the summer months society
was buster this year than for many
years past and the lull in entertaining
which was brought On by the war was
soon replaced by affairs of interest to
both old and young.
Many Of the wonen's clubs Of Grand
Forks which had disbanded that their
members might devote their time to
knitting and sewing for the soldiers
and for the needv ara. homeless n
Europe have reorganized. A much
deeper. interest rs pS.As SHOWN in I'D.
work, this year, it has been noticed,
due to the long rest, which bids fair
to a yet more active year for the
clubs and societies in the year 1921.

FRANCES E. WILLARD MUSEUM
L little SchooIhouse Near GAINESVILLE,
Wis.,, Dedicated to Memory OF
Great Temperance Leader.

Log cabins and marble palaces,
courthouses and round towers are now
and again turned into museums In the
memory of some historic person. More
rarely the building is q schoolhouse,
but such is the case with the new
Frances f. Willard museum. The lit
tie country schoolhouse near James
Vile, Wis, has recently been dedicated
by followers of the American temper
ance leader, among them former pu-
pils of Miss Wizards in Wesleyan
seminary and at Northwestern univer-
sity. and national officers of the WOm-
ans Christian Temperance union. The
schoolhouse is far from imposing. Miss
Willard referred to it once as "a sort
of big ground-nut," but it symbolizes
the progress of child who came into
a wilderness with her pioneer family,
and through her good work gained a
place for herself in the Hall Of Fame
at Washington. the only woman 80
