STORY OF A KIND DEED

One cold winter day Ruth and
Robert were going to buy some
cakes. AS they were going along
they saw very hungry looking
man. They went into the store and
got some cakes. When they came
out the man said, "Will you give
me something to eat?"
'You can have these cakes" said
Robert.
The man asked them what their
names were and the ytold him.
He thanked them and went off.
The children went home and told
their mother. and she said that
was a kind deed. They never saw
the man after that. The children's
father and mother were very poor.
One day the father did not have
any work. They were uptown and
they met this man. He had made
a large fortune and owned a large
shop. He let Robert and Ruth's
father go to work for him, and they
lived happily.-Dolores Names, Ga

OUR DOG

Once we had a little dog. We
named him Bob. He was my
brothers puppy. Every time Glenn
would get on his wheel Bob would
bother him.
One winter evening he changed
his bed out in the summer kitchen.
in a few days Bob took sick. We
took him to the doctor, but it did
no goods He soon died. My brother
cried very hard. Then we buried
Bob in the back yard. Once in
awhile we all go down there and
look where he was buried. 1t
makes tears roll down our faces

STORY OF SPEECH
Keen Eyes and the Pigeon

One day Keen Eyes and Pigeon
thought they would go down the
river to fish. They soon came to a
deep dark pool. AS they sat there
watching for fish large one jump
ed out of the water and fell back
into the pool with a splashing
sound.
Keen Eyes pointed to the circles
of water where the fish had disap-
peared and said splash" So that
is what they called all fish after
that.
When they went into the forest
to hunt they heard bear. They
thought he spoke his name which
they said was wool. SO they called
all bears 'woof."
AS they walked in the woods
they came to a tree where wild
bees were swarming. They thought
these insects said Buzzzzzzz--.
So Keen Eyes and Pigeon named
them that
At night they went in the cave
and rolled the stone into the door
way and lay on their pile of skin
in the darkness. A sound was
heard it said pit, pat, pit, pat pit
pat. 1t was a Saber-tooth tiger
prowling. The called him "Pit
Pat" They went to sleep until the
daylight came
Thus they began to form lam
guage by naming them by the
sounds they made.-Wilma Morgan,
IA, Garfield school.

ond in this series of stories which

guage from the earliest times.

SURE SIGNS OF SPRING

The boys of st. Andrews school
show sure signs of spring. Every
boy from the sixth grade and up
are bringing baseballs and baseball
gloves. Some show a little skill
in being future baseball players.
OF course, no one knows what the
future has in store for us. Some of
these might fortunately become
baseball players.

game with st. Andrews baseball
team, please notify one of the ST.
Andrews pupils out of the eighth

OUR PLAYFUL KITTEN

In the summer stray kitten
came TO our mouse. We took her
in and fed her, and called her
Baucis.
She is full of tricks. When we
are not looking, she pulls the table
cloth off. When she wants to go
out of doors she stands at the door
and cries, and when she wants in
scratches on the doors. At night
she crawls in my doll buggy and
sleeps with my doll. = Kathryn
Paust, grade "A, Starr school.

A Japanese Flower Lover

A little poem in Japanese tells
the story about man who found
that morning glory had climbed
around his water bucket. and who
as he did not like to destroy it,
had gone next door for water. The
poem, translated, is as follows:
20, dear little Morning Glory,
You have clambered to my water
bucket
With your blossom.
How can tear you from my we'll ?
! would rather go next door,
To beg for water"

Then came the terrible years of
the "Mattress-grave," when he lay
helplessly on pile of mattresses
thrown together promiscuously. At
first the two little rooms, zone of
which was his grave and the other
in which he lay became the Mecca
for the first magnitude stars of Eu-
rope. But as the novelty of his ill
ness wore off and he got worse and
worse, he often lay alone for
months on end, without seeing

up to the size of a ten-year-old child.

It became dangerous for him to
remain in Germany and he fled to
France, settling in Paris. Perhaps
because of his restlessness and lone
Illness, may be because of his dis
appointment with the leaders of the
July Revolution (1831), he, who till
now rarely tasted glass of beer,
abandoned himself to the Bohemian
life of the Latin Quarter, ultimately
paying with eight years of living
death on his "Mattress-grave."
Here he met a gay young grisette
named Matilda Crescende Mirat.
She was ignorant to illiteracy. She
did not know and did not care for
y the fact that her lover was poet
of international fame. But she was
young and gay and beautiful. And
to him nothing else mattered. They
"set up housekeeping" together
and he sent her to school. But the
dear little things head was more
in rhythm with the swing of the
latest dances and "hits" in popular
song. So she never succeeded in
getting to be "on speaking terms
with his Muse"
In fact, it is doubtful whether she
ever appreciated the honor conferred
on her little fiat by the visits OF
such men as Victor Hugo, Dumas,
Meyerbeer, Balzac, and others. Nor
did she care much when the world
called the young man at her side

his fingers, wrecked by excruciating
pains never experienced by mortal
mantle beautiful gay grisette
never left him. In fact, she nursed
him, carried him around in her arms,
and tended him as one tends child.
Now and then she crossed him and
he sped at her Heinesque dart:
ooh, 1 wish you'd marry after l die;
there'd be at least one man to re-
greet my DEATH"
One day during the last year OF his
life he advertised for an amanuen-
sis, and the advertisement was an
swered by a young woman named
Elsie Won Krinitz She was just then
writing in Paris under the name of
Camille Selder She spoke German,
English, and French excellently. Her
soft warm notes when speaking Ger
man stirred in the exiled poet reve-
ries of his child life in his native
home. Elsie was a girl with quite
a sad history of her own and her
sympathy for the ill-starred singer
became profound. She came every
day and brought sunshine and JOY
and love into his dark, poverty
stricken, three-roomed little fiat.
But it must not be inferred that
there was anything more than love
of sympathy, of understanding
things he missed in Matilda. She
seems to have been sent to him as
a last sunbeam on a slate-colored
sky,-as if shown in sunset reverie

grumpy Englishman, in an i'll temper,
is capable of some day putting a rope
around her neck.
"The inconstant Frenchman may
become unfaithful to his adored mis-
tress and be seen fiuttering about the
Palais Royal after another.
"But the German will never quite
abandon his old grandmother. He
will always keep for her a nook by
the chimney corner, where she can tell
her fairy tales to the listening chill
dren."
But he is not yet callous to the
baseness of his attacks. Now and
then he stops and broods in his
Dantesque immensely:
"Alas! One ought in truth to write
against no one in this world. Each
of us is sick enough in this great
lazarettol. And many polemical
writing reminds me involuntarily. OF
a revolving quarrel in a little hospital
in Cracow which I CHANGED to witness
where it was horrible to hear how
the patients mockingly reproached
each other with their infirmities; how
one who was wasted by consumption
ieered at another bloated by dropsy;
how one laughed at another's cancer
in the nose, and this one in turn over
his neighbor's lockjaw or squirt. I'm
til at last the delirious fever patient
sprang out of bed and tore away the
covering from the wounded bodies OF
his companions-and nothing was to
be seen but hideous misery and mutt
lation."

him, II amt going back without get
ting something fixed up, anyhow.
Even if Pm relations, I amt going
to be kicked out for strangers. And
guess you don't get SO many pa
tents yet, anyhow" with one of her
shrewd looks.
"Plenty of 'em-plenty of 'em,"
with airy pride. "I'm expecting sew
eral now. Let's have look auntie.
A little wider, please. Ye-es, quite
a cavity, but we'll fix it in no time.
And, maybe, when we have more
time, crown"
"A nice gold one," said Mrs. Kahn
weller, beaming with satisfaction.
"The very best gold. Thank God,
your uncle can afford it and he don't
grudge me nothing within reason.
And the gold don't cost so terrible
much if you don't get paid for the
work. In cash, I mean. God knows
when we get back what we give you
and I amt saying nothing about the
interest, neither"
The little bell on the outside door
tangled. Joe peeped out into the
might be only the gas bill or-But
it was a patient!
And such a patient. Although she
held her wisp of handkerchief to her
cheek, the toothache had not bloated
her face or marred her carefully pre-
pared pink and white complexion.
About eighteen or so, starry:-eyed,
bobbed brown curls with CLINT of
gold escaping from under her soft
hat. Joe began to feel that with such
patients a man might be said to love
his work.
"Good afternoon" he said, trying
to be very professional. "You came
to"
The bell tangled again and another
patient entered. A young man with
what Joe characterized as a rah-rah
air, due, perhaps to his collegian type
of cap and clothes, since his face
. was prematurely grave with a hint
4 of suffering about the mouth.
"I've a terrible toothache," began
the newcomer abruptly. "I'll have to
have it out, Pm afraid. Do you give
gas ?"

woman's tone was rather frosty. u

murmured the over-worked dentist.
"And auntie's in the chair-just my
luck" Aloud: "I'll be with you in

azines on the very new oak table.
The girl took up copy of the
"Pictorial Review''-several months
old 81 do" she said with what Joe
considered unnecessary emphasis.
"And I hope I wont be disturbed"
She sent an almost fiery glance
toward the young man in the college
cap and curled up in the big leather
chair near the window. "And please
look at my teeth as soon as you can.
I'm suffering terribly"
"Joe," came appealingly from the
inner room. "Joe, for Gods sake, are
you going to keep me waiting all
night? Even if I am relations"
A murderous look glittered in
Joe's eyes. 81 beg your pardon!" but
he was exhibiting his air of profess
sional politeness for the benefit of the
two paying patients, not the stout
lady in the dentist chair. 81 have a
patient, but I'll attend to you as
quickly as possible. Even if have to
strangle her to get rid of her." he
added fercely to himself.
eyes, please hurry" urged the male
sufferer from the corner of the
leather davenport. "Or Pm afraid I'll
have to go to another dentist"
Joe went back to auntie with the
terrible threat ringing in his ears.
And the Lord knew what work these
people needed, but he couldn't hold
them. "Sorry I had to keep
you waiting so long, Auntie," he said
cheerfully. "Now I'll just fill this
cavity in a jiffy and next time we'll
talk about crowns"
Outside in the box-like reception
room, the young woman surveyed the
fashions of month before last with
world-weary eyes, while the young
man glowered at her with all the
tragedy of his twenty-one years in
his face. At last he could stand it
no longer.
"See here, Marjorie" he began
hoarsely. "I'm not going to stand it.
You've got to listen to me-"
