CHILDREN'S BEACH
HOUSE CHATTER

There are several birthdays this
month. Already we have celebrat-
ed DOrOthy's and Anna Marie's-
both girls receiving many gifts and
cards.
We appreciate the beautiful red
geranium Mrs. Toms brought when
she returned from Milford Satur-
day. The pussy willows in the Ii
brary are very attractive, too.
Two of the boys, Jack and Joe,
seem to have improved their ap-
pearance with their new glasses.
Now that The spring weather is
appearing We are able to take
rides. Friday of last week the
girls went to RehOboth when Miss
Fellows had a trip over there. The
boys have been accompanying her
on trips for Mrs. Warrington in
the evenings. Walks are in order,
too, as well as fun playing on the
banks of sand.
On the top of the supply closet
in the school room is curious lit
tie house that has two apartments.
One has happy girl and boy; the
other has a witch. AS long as the
weather remains clear, they all
remain inside the house. When
there is going to be bad weather,
the witch is noticed coming out of
her doorway. Then. we keep anx-
iously waiting until the little
Dutch boy and girl begin to move
forward, for we know that within
eight to twenty-four hours the sun
will be out. AS long as there is TO
be no change in the weather, they
will remain in their own apart
ments.
Visitors Sunday were the mo-
ther of Jack, the mother, father,
two brothers, and grandmother of
Earl. Marie's mother and sister,
their friends. Mrs. Dawson and
