My Little Banker

Tuesday is our bank day here at
school. If we happen to be clever
enough to save we make deposits
of our weeks savings on that day.
At home have a very small bank
er. Although he is only two
months old he realizes the advant-
ages Of saving. You might guess
what he is before 7 tell you. He
couldn't be a cat because a cat al
ways leaves what he doesn't want
for the ants or mice, or both: a
dog at two months doesn't know
that he should hide his bone so
that he might have it again some
time later. He isn't a baby be-
cause there is no baby at my house,
besides me, and I am past two
months mark. The little animal
that I refer to is my little squirrel.
a squirrel is very cute, anyone
knows that, but everyone may not
know how thrifty they are. If you
should come into our house and
look around under rugs, and pill
lows or anything that is big enough
TO hide a peanut, you would i'm
mediately understand how thrifty
the squirrel is.

the children to the door where
Aunt Margaret was waiting for
i them.
Ere long Mr.. and Mrs. Roby had
i reached the house which, a few
days before, had echoed to the
laugh and prattle Of the little one
that now lay cold in death. When
they entered Mr.. Roby gave the
things they had brought to a
neighbor who came to the door to
admit them. These will come in

pretty hard run just now" The
Robes did not stay more than an
hour but it was long enough to see
the dimly lighted, desolate looking
room; the father sitting, with bow
ed head, by the fireplace; the grief
stricken children, clad in garments
only fit for a bright summer day;
the pretty little baby, on whose
face there still fingered the sweet
est of smiles; and last of all. the
poor mother whose heart seemed
breaking under the great sorrow
that had fallen upon it.

baby, how can I give you up"

And now l am free from all the

All the way home the sleigh bells
seemed to say, I'm free, I'm free"
When they reached home and the
lamp was lighted how cheerful
and home-like the room seemed.
She did not notice the faded CARPET
and the homemade furniture now.
The plain, impoverished room of
the morning had been turned into a
palace; And that night as she kiss

in bed she said to herself 'eNevar

MIDDLETOWN IN

Christmas Lights on Main

ness Houses Decorated
ARRANGED BY COUNCIL

Middletown's Christmas lights
were completed and turned on for
the first time this year and
gave the town a festive appear
ance, and bringing much favorable
comment from the MANY shop
pers. This was the towns first
effort at complete Yuletide decora-
tion, in previous years the decora-
tons being confined to the COM
mun1ty tree in Cochran Square and
the efforts of the Volunteer Hose
company and individual merchants.
Designed and installed under the
supervision of the light and water
plant, the lights were financed
through the donations of merchants
and individuals for materials. La
DOR and transformers were supplied
py Mayor and Council. On main
street the lights extend from Cass
street to Catherine street. while on
Broad street they run from Green
street to Crawford street. A cross
street string of half red and half
green lights with a yellow center
design was used on the streets with
special effects in Cochran Square.

School Activities

The real value of school activit-
les is not fully realized by the pu-
pills. Most of the students enter
into the school functions because
they were personally asked to, or
because their friends do. They
very rarely go into them on their
own initiative.
Some examples of the help these
activities afford the participants
are as follows: plays, debates, and
recitations do wonders in overcom-
ing stage fright, an evil that hind
ers numbers of people all through
life if they do not conquer it in its
early stages; dancing, too, will
furnish anyone the thrill that great
actors feel when they are in the
spotlight. Often careers are start
ed in school,
Again may the point be brought
out, namely, if pupils entered all
activities, they would find that
much education is derived from
them, as well as the fun that comes
from being in them

with stage fright but while / was

the last time fell backwards stiff

tell me he was going to catch mel.
4 was not conscious of a force pull
ing me backwards, nor that I had
started TO fall or was falling but
came to myself just after he
caught me. This he then did to
the other 10 subjects.
He again asked me to stand.
Then telling the audience that he
was about to show the power he
had (if the subject was willing to
do as he said) to paralyze muscles.
he directed me to lock the fingers
of my hands together; close nv
eyes; say / cannot take my hands
apart over and over again to nv
self; and keep Tightening nv
hands While I did this he kept
saying, II cannot take nv hands

he squeezed my hands still tighter

After a minute or two of this he
said, Now, when count three trv
