A STORY OF MlLLET

iMillet was born in 1914 in the lit
tie hamlet of Gruchy, which is
located in France. He was Il
peasant painter.
When just boy he would go out
into the fields and sketch different
objects that he saw On rainy days
when it was impossible to go out,
he would draw Bible pictures.
He went to Cherbourg college.
and worked there until he was re-
called by the death of his father
He then felt it his duty to go back
and help on the farm. But his
mother and grandmother urged him
to go back and stay with art, as
they knew he would make an ex-
cellent artist. So he went back and
studied much harder than before.
He went to Paris and stood for
days looking at his favorite pic
lures. He then decided to become
a student of Delaroche college
The students of this school were
very much interested in the arrival
of this young artist. He had large
hands and feet and wore rough
clothes. They nicknamed him and
called him "The Man of the
Woods" Later, a friend and he set
out to work forsthemselves. They
painted signs and portraits.
Mlllet was twice married, and
as years passed, his family grew,
and times grew hard. He decided
to take his family and move to
Barbizou, which he did, and lived
there the rest of his life. Millet
enjoyed his Barbizou days. Here
he found his French peasant.
In 1868 he won the White Cross
Of the Legion of Honor.
He died in 1875. 1t was his own
request to have a peasant funeral.
The neighbors carried the coffin,
and his wife and children walked
behind to the emetery.-Pauline
Turner, obi, Garfield Junior High
school.

Always Wanted 1t

The sisters, Mary and Ruth,
were almost daily visitors at the
neighborhood grocery store, where
the clerk frequently gave them
candy On this particularly morn
ing. however, he had neglected to
treat.
Mary, who had been cautioned
by her mother never to ask for
anything at the Store, nevertheless
fingered thoughtfully near the at
tractive candy counter.
Suddenly, as with an inspiration,
she turned to sister and demanded,
"Roofie, would you like some
candy?"
Roofie said she would. where
upon Mary turned to the clerk
with smile. isn't it funny" she
asked, that Roofie- always wants
candy Chicago Daily Tribune.

The crow was sorry looking
sight when he came out of the
bushes, but the other animals did
not have much pity on him, for he
WIS such mischief and it was fun
to see him caught at his own game,
so they simply capered around and
laughed at him. Bobby, who had
just come out in time to see Billy
plunge into the gooseberry bushes,
also stopped to laugh, but when
the crow flew to him he quit at
once, and smoothing down the
feathers, examined Tarwing care
fully to see whether he had any
serious hurts.
Serves you right, old fellow"
said he, holding the bird close up
to his Cheek. IF you will indulge
in rough play, you may expect to
get hurt now and then. Come here,
Dandy"
Dandy came running to him and
Bobby quickly hitched him up.
Bobby was a busy boy and a
thrifty one. He had just bought
an acre of ground just behind the
barnyard on credit long time ago,
and had paid for 1t out OF the pro-
ceeds of the garden truck which he
had raised on it. He sold eggs
and chickens in the village and
raised SQUAD which he sent to the
nearby city. Besides this he some
times used Dandy and his wagon
for light hauling, turning an honest
penny whenever he could. AS Mr..
Sanders ran the mill in the village
and was doing very nicely in bus
mess way, Bobby was free to keep
al his money for himself and to do
with it as he pleased, for he had
long ago proved that he could be
trusted with money. Today he had
little hauling to do and he drove
Dandy out to the road with a
CHEEKY goodbye to his happy barn
yard family.
Bobby left the barnyard gate
slightly ajar and he had no more
than gone when Billy, as full OF
curiosity as ever, managed TO
swing the gate and push 1t VIDE
open, then he darted out, followed
by all the chickens, which immedi-
ately scattered to the flower beds
and vegetable garden to scratch
and eat the tender leaves.
Mrs. Sanders had just hung out
her clothes. Nice white linen al
ways had struck Billy as being a
fine thing to chew on. OF course,
when he saw some hanging down
for his especial benefit, it was no
more than polite for him to walk
up and take nibble.
Just as he reached up for it,
however, Jimmy Tarwings swooped
down on Billy's back to give him
scratch with his talons and nip
with his bill. and Billy, not expect

JANE HAS A SCARE

One time, on Saturday night,
James mother said, "Jane. are you
afraid to go to the store?"
Jane said, mo"
WELL" replied the mother, 81
want you to go for me-"
So, Jane started off, and when
she had gone block down she
said, Il forgot the money and
mama never told me what to get"
She began to go home and she
heard something going "g-r-r-r!"
and she got frightened. She looked
around and she saw little white
dog. She said, II got so scared
just for that dOg!"
She went home and her mother
said, why did you come back SO
soon?"
WELL" responded Jane, you
never gave me any money"
Il want you to go to the meat
shop, and can give you note"
Jane started off again but she
got by the gate and she said, 81
forgot my money" She had to go
back again. She said, Mother,
give me the money"
She gave Jane the money and
she went on. Now, Jane was al
most to the meat market when she
saw something black coming near
her and then she heard someone
calling. "Jane!" She was afraid
to look back. She ran and ran,
until she got to the meat market,
and went in. About five minutes
after she saw Sara, one of her
friends, and she said to Jane,
What made you run so fast when
/ called you? / was coming down
to your house. My mother just
now went down to your house.
Hurry, and I'll go home with you"
They both went to James home.
She told her mother about her
scare. Then her mother said, "Ill
never send you by yourself again"
Sara had fun with Jane.
James mother said, Its a good
thing Sara came home with you, or
you would have had another scare.

Use of Sign Language

There are 1872 Indian dialects
spoken in different parts of the
United States, and often people
speaking one dialect cannot under
stand people speaking another one.
When this happens, the Indians
begin expressing themselves in
sign language which all the Indians
understand.

The meeting was held at the request

was success in every way. one en-
tire day was spent at the Wilson farm
