Going to the Fair.

Dear Happy: Once we went to
the fair. We left early in the morn
ing and got there around 8 o'clock.
We went with the car and we took
our lunch along and we ate on the
road.
When we got there we rode on the
street car 1t took a long time to get
down at the fair grounds. We stay
ed down at the fair grounds all day
and I was sure tired from walking
around.
They had lots of things at night.
We left around S o'clock and on our
way home it got cloudy in the sky
and papa drove a little faster. He
thought we could get home but it
started to rain. At last it got so bad
that we could not drive so we stop
ped at farm house and stayed until
about 2 o'clock in the morning. We
got home around 4 o'clock in the
morning. When we got home we
were cold and wet.
I would like to 60 again but not
in the rain. I received the button
with great pleasure-Helen Hensel,
Aged 10, West Point, Neb.

The Happy's Success.

Once upon a time in beautiful
city OF the shores OF bright blue
lake lived two little men. They loved
good little children and wanted to
make them happy. so they ioied and
toiled and so finished the happys
work house. Here they could care
for animals and birds and also chill
dren. II was pretty hard for two
little men so they had most OF the
boys and girls in town help. They
pade such a good success. that j,
became known all over. One day
little John the little boy went out
doors and found two little birds out
OF their, nest and John pu, them
back. The two little men decided to
have a parade to bring more success
for the happy. The week after had
come and the parade was already.
They had large banner on which
was the word, "Happy!" All the
children yelled Happy the Success"
The people of the town were happy
and held a large feast for the club.

"Old Glory"
Long has Old Glory waved on high,
The bravest banner under the sky,
With its colors brave and true,
Glorious, wondrous, red, white and
blue.
Through the worlds great war Old
Glory was borne,
Always waving in the dawn Of morn,
While around her crowded soldiers
stood
Fighting and helping for all they
could.
And to this day Old Glory doss -
wave,
Der the dead and living brave,
And over those in years to come,
Who will help America be one in
one.

very beautiful to them. Church was
over and as they returned home, oh
what a surprise was in store for
them. Sitting at home right beside

But all were very happy and Mary
