books hidden under Witch Virgins
pillow on her bed, but both books were
invisible, so. even though the Raggedys
could feel the two Magic books, they
could not see them. So you see, they
could not read the directions for max
ing Magic things, or making wishes
come true.
OF course, neither Raggedy Ann, nor
Raggedy Andy could read only from
Magic books. Magic books are very nice
for that reason, for if a very little
child finds Magic book; even if he,
or she cannot read from a little easy
as pie story in a primer, why, they
can read from n Magic book just as
well as any grown up person.
That is one of the nice things about
Magic books, and they are all alike. l
hope you find one some day!
So there the Raggedys were. They
had their two Magic books, but the
books were invisible.

delicious menu and the good talks which
followed.
Mrs. J. NJ. Hankins, president of the
League of Women Voters, presided and
introduced all the teachers around the
table, each of whom had few words
10 say. DR.. N. r. Baker, county super
ihtendent of education, expressed his
hearty approval of the essay contest
and stated jocularly that he was glad
there were two loving cups as if there
were only one. the city high schools
would stand no chance for it against
the county. Miss Frances Finley of
Jefferson County high at the close ex-
pressed the appreciation of the teach
ers for the courtesy of the league. 9th

At the opening of the luncheon Mrs.

Sure Way to Get

There is one simple, safe and sure
way that never fails to get rid of
blackheads, that is to dissolve them.
To do this get two ounces of calo-

rub over the blackheads briskly-wash
the parts and you will be surprised how
the blackheads have disappeared. Big

blackheads so they wash right out, leav-
