The Children s Hour

The great liner forged true to her course and her engines hummed with the rhythmic steadiness of gigantic watch. Gathered in corner of the spacious lounge group of children, under the champeronag-e of the ships nurse. danced about in tremulous ex- citcment. IL was the Children s Hour, and presently a nimble-footed steward entered the room to escort the wee voyagers to the captains suite. One by one the kiddies step ped into the quarters of the ships commander to stand in a row with big, wondering eyes. 1t was a most solomn moment, but in a jiffy the jovial navigator of the speeding liner had shaken them by the hand and drawn them about hfm. Questions were asked and answered, and pres sntiy tho kiddies were listening spelibound to the tale of the Little Mermaid Princess from Neptune's s Realm. Close upon this delightful story came others of Davey Jones and his deep sea locker, the Flying

Sunset Song

By Beatrice Washburn. Oh, can you see the fairy ships? And little stars, and fat, white cloud:
 Are hid within their hold. Oh can you see their purple prows
 Their masts are made of gold;
 All headed for the west? And on their decks the sunbeams
 Are lylng down to rest. Oh do you see them setting out?
 Their sails all full of light? They hope to make their distant DOT
 Before the fall of night, Oh shall we board our fairy ships
 And sail, just you and For phantom cities and for ports
 Far out there in the sky?

Rover was on the doorstep sleep for he was afraid that if he did his calls would awaken his mother. After Jack had been gone little while, Rover awoke. He hunted for him, and not finding him in the yard went to the beach to look for him.
 When Jack got to the beach he played in the sand for a while and then went in wading. But he got out too far and big wave came and carried him out farther. Rover Saves Him

 And we're, oh! so very glad For they certainly were awful And almost made us mad. English wasn't terrible.
 History could easily pass. But l will not speak of geometry I've kept it for the last. It was the worst Of bad things I almost gave up in despair, For the originals were awful, almost pulled out my hair. But now it's all over

no such thing as human society. but every man was his own law and the mortal enemy of his neighbor.
 The entrances to their dwellings are high up in the almost perpen- dicular walls of the cliffs, and they are reached solely by means of long poles. which are light enough to be drawn up when the lord of the dsn and his family are safely housed. And when housed they really are safe from intrusion, for it would re- uuire a host to force an entrance against the will of the family.-- National Geographic Society.

 Fine Memory
 You wouldn't think a mere baby like this would have a memory for names, would you? When he goes down to call on his father at the store he can tell at least 25 names of those who have spoken to him or he has seen.

The LoneIiest Missionary

Many missionaries lead very lonely lives. Probably the loneliest mis- sionary of all lives at station in North Australia. The little house IS situated on the Roper river, which flows into the Gulf of Carpentaria, right at the north of the great island continent. Here the missionary lives quite cut off from white folks, with only q small number of the native Australians. The nearest doctor is more than 500 miles away, and it Is quite 20 miles to the nearest white settler. Never more than once a year does this missionary receive arv tidings of what is happening in the world outside, and he did not hear of the great war until quite F months after it had started.
