iel more angry than ever. and he
ran around and barked and
made a great fuss.
The spaniers master, hearing
his dog barking in such an an
cry manner, hurried through the
woods to discover the cause.
When he arrived he saw only an
inoffensive yellow dog, instead
OF a grounding. possum or some
other animal. as he had ex-
pected.
why, Fruzzle- what
do you mean by barking at that
poor, little, frightened dog, only
half your size? Shame on you!
Where is your master, you poor
little forlorn dog-or haven't you
any?
But Stubby pretended he was
afraid and ran into the log. His
fear, however, was not for him
self. as the hunter supposed. but
he would not bulge, and when
one of the dogs. Drawer than the
rest, tried to make an entrance.
he bit his nose so badly that he
was glad enough to pull his head
out again and leave Stubby in
full possession. though he smelt
the blood of the ducks.
Here, here! Come away and
find those two ducks I shot, for
! saw them drop near here into
the lake" and the hunter called
of his dogs and went with them
to try to find his game, but. as
you know. he did not find them.

though they can find space for
only half the children at one
time, they are eagerly bending
their energies to making rude
pine benches and withdrawing
rooms for school, use. In this
emergency the Junior American
Red Cross has been lending aid
by distributing schoolbooks
which are badly needed. In one
school attended by 10 children
they had but. on items of school
supplies. single prayer book.
A few weeks ago there was a
distribution of schoolbooks out
of Baranowicze. The represen-
tative of the Junior Red Cross
piled the books into a small
truck-readers, arithmetics. copy
books. one map for each schoof,
a package of chalk, and an
eraser and pencil for each child.
In a second small car sat the
district school inspector. an in
terested priest who acted as the
interpreter, and the agent of the
American Red Cross. Several
times on the way the heavily
laden truck stuck in the ruts of
the hills. At one such stop. two
peasants came up to give a boost
Dver the muddy road and one or
them begged a primer that ne
might learn to read. Unfortu-
nately he was a White Russian
and could not understand the
language in which the books
were printed.
In tiny hamlet of 500 people
where the truck stopped, men,
women and children collected
about the two machines whne
the inspector presented to the
teacher enough books for his
school which wss ready to oper.
All gazed in wonder at this evi-
dence of the American children's
generosity and listened with in
terest to what the priest told
them In simple words OF the
ideals OF Junior Red Cross.
A year ago the Junior Ameri-
can Red Cross gave garden tools
and seeds to the Polish children
in order that they might reliev.

to be OF a kind that cost very
little money for they are ex-
tremely poor. This policy of de-
veloping-in the minds and hearts
Of the Polish children a desire
to do something for someone
else Is felt to be one of the most
important aspects of the Junior
work in Poland where for years
great deal has been done for
the children and where their
great poverty has kept them
from seeing how they can extend
friendly hand to others. Their
response to the suggestion that
they send letters and bits of
their handiwork to the children
OF America has been so hearty
and so prompt that their teach
ers are greatly encouraged.
