cause of the Colonies before, during and after

BY every art, craft and device Of song, story

Martha Washington who walked by his side for
40 years. sharing his triumphs and his defeats.

Hello, Everybody.

61G11O, c4JHOAyo
Here we are again with an
other Adventure story sent in
by Nadine Davis, of 1409 Six
tenth St. N. W. We told you
we were going to publish the
four stories she sent in-one by
one. This is the third story,
and you still have one more to
look forward to reading in the
column.
An Adventure Story
1--WE were in swimming in the
creek. 1t was an especially
good place. Deep enough to
dive and yet shallow enough in
places for those who couldn't
swim.
81 was swimming leisurely by
the bank when I saw q water
mOccaSin curled up under the
Overhanging bank. Now If
there's one thing I hate, it's
snakes. Like a streak Of light
ning-I was out Of there.
Katherine asked what was
wrong and when I yelled that
It was a snake, she came out
mighty quick. Then the snake
swan across the creek and in
. flash, everyone was on the
bank, pOking at it. 1 kept
away. 1 was taking no chances.
We never went back there I
can assure you"
Remember Georgiana Con-
nick, of Aquasco, Md? She
writes us again. She says:
'It'S such . long time since
! have written to the club.
'First, I want to thank you
for my birthday card on Au.
gust n. I had a nice party with
twelve of my friends. I received
some nice gifts and / think
every one had a nice time at
the party.
81 am going to school now,
20 far I have gone every day,
but 1 do miss the good old times
We had during the summer
vacation.
"My brother Tommy and sis
ter Beckey wanted to know
how that man in town knew
when everybOdy'S birthday was
because he sent cards. They
have saved their birthday cards
since June and July. I have
mine, too.
''My, but you have a large
club. I wonder how many boys
and girls there would be II you
were to count them all
"'Do not know any more news

hear from another very old
member of The Times Adven-
ture Club, Agnes Minor, 1872
