Afterwards he believed he must have become unconscious for a while. he was going so fast. For when he walked up,- he was in such a strange looking country that he knew 1t was not mother. earth. It had trees and skies like the earth. but there were only very tiny houses a little larger than those boys build for bird boxes here. and in them lived the Queeresf little people he had over seen.
 Tiny People
 None of them were a bit bigger than Tot Tim himself. but they were very pale faced and slender with little hands that looked like snow flakes and a queer way of walking that was more like the hopping of snow birds. They bounded upon the earth--and yet they flew too--but actually did much work with their hands.
 In all of the land there was only ono human being as large as an earthman, and for a while Tot Tim stayed on his shoulder so he could

get 8 good look around. He did not know which of the many strange .5ugs, frog-like animals and big birds might be his enemies.
 Finally, when Tot Tim ventured down. he was overjoyed to find that the little people of the land, who were as fond of living in the trees >as they were in their small houses, talked a species of earth language sc much so that he was able to un- derstand what they were saying and thinking.
 The reason for this was that once upon a time their little mother queen had dropped down to visit the fairies on earth and had been so charmed with the language that she had taken 1t back to her people.
 A Terrible Thing
 But the whole star land was sgi- tated over a terrible thing that had just happened two days before. The little princess of tho district was just about to be married to a gay young prince from the eastern sec ton of the star. Tho day they were to have been married was tomorrow, but on the way to the mother queens castle. terrible bandits in the form of bugs had rushed out and fallen upon tho young priuco Anu S~AAASu him away to captivity.
 Tho result was that all the queens castle was in deep mourning. The little princess had taken to her bed, being overcome with grief, and the cueen mother, who had planned to turn over the Kingdom to the young prince and her daughter, had called her courtiers and council together and postponed the change indeIl- nitely.
 vassals and slaves from both the nother oueen's court and from the princes own land were searching desperately over hills and through forests and in all the trees and clouds to find what had become of the unhappy bridegroom.
 It was even feared-Iot Tim beard the little people thinking that the poor unhappy prince had heen murdered. Though they did not evan whisper this aloud for fear 1t wight reach the ears of the little nrinoess and make ner wish to do something desperate.

 Still. he figured that he wouio drift around a bit any way, keep his eyes open and see if he could note any peculiar disturbances going on among the bugs which might .sive some inkling as to the poor s1uns nr,nce's fate, or denote the bugs knew anything about the kidnapping.
 He drifted down among iush leaves of plants such as he had ney- CT seen before. Two or three .,mes ha almost fell down deep holes wnicn a,.er animals about the size or suinea pigs had dug as homes for

 My dear superintendent I am a new fellow in your school You do no. know me, but I would know you if I were to ct you, because there Is a picture of you with silk flag over 1t hanging right in front of my desk in the senior seventh grade at Avondale schools. l came to this school in January. have been to school in st. Louis and Chicago nearly all my life, most ly. though, in St. Louis. wondered how I could ever come to school in this. ugly. dirty-look- ing school house.
 The teacher told me that this build ing is real nice when compared with some of your schools. And when we began to read about the conditions in the schools all over the city. and to see the pictures of the awful! buildings all over the city. l am glad you are, trying to get the people to help you build nice buildings for the children. Why, 1 saw picture in the paper of an old garage where some children go to school. Isn't that awful?
 I've made two posters, which am sending you to put in your office, if you have an office. l made them up all by myself. but I hope they will make folks vote for the $7,000. 900 bond issue. because you surely do need a lot of new schools.
 We are going to have some four minute speeches and make lots of posters in our room.
 If there is anything can do to help get the folks to vote for this money to get rid of these old build ings. why, you just let me know and I think cas do it. Your friend,

Tim back so that they could all fall upon him and take his life.
 In the Meantime
 Whereupon Tot Tim merely flew across to the top of the hill and van ished into the castle window with the poor young prince, whom he sat down right at the feet of the queen mother
 Who are you?" queried the queen astonished.
 'Oh. just visitor in your wonder full world. I heard about the miss ing prince and fate was kind enough to let me find him. But we have no time to talk now. I will be back again. I have a little job to do.' Then Tot Tim flew back to the fence where he had heard the hum ming.
 He stood up tall an straight and showed himself from the top of hls head to the bottom of his feet. ."I have heard every word of your plot and of your perfidy," he shout ed. And because of this, every one of you shall become nothing but a harmless creeping potato bug. and you shall remember nothing of being kings and queens in Bugland."
 Then. in twinkling of an eye,
  the whole wicked colony had slumped into fatness. and gone waddling off among the grasses.
 T am so glad they can never make anyone on t Is star unhappy again"
 All Gay F When he got back again to the castle, all was very merry.
 The little prince was radiant and the young prince, clad in his gor- geous clothing that had preceded him to the castle. was himself once more though a trifle haggard and worn. They ordered Tot Tim wondrous meal, and insisted that he stay to the weddng-and would have kept him for life if Tot Tim had not wish ed to return to his mother and his brothers and sisters upon the earth. When the time came for Tot Tim to return home upon a passing light ming bolt, the whole royal family went down with him to the edge Of the cliff. There, just before he left, the little white princess slipped . beautiful ring upon his finger. And Tot Tim wears 1t to this day.
