Kurt Frickle is the person. A very small person not yet three who lives with his parents on a ranch in the Celia neighborhood, 14 miles northeast of Atkinson. Mr and Mrs. Conrad Frickle jr., widely known residents cf the community, have three ther children.

Last Christmas when Kurt was Ponton Insurance Insurance of All Kinds and Bonds FLORENCE PONTON. Prop. Phone 1 Ofl OoWen Bid* -i r —— just past two he received a set of building blocks for a gift. When his mother was showing him the pictures and how to build he wanted to know what the let ters wer She told him and was surprised to find that he remem bered them. It was not long un til he cculd name each letter of the alph bet no matter in which order they were presented. He spells out w rds from signs and ch i'Irens books and is much in terested in the art of writing. Kurt recognizes his own name in til t vd hit..^11 r;phew and those of nis brothers and sis ter.

When he rides with his father in the plane the little fellow rec ognizes neighbor^ places as they fly over. So far, lerraing the letters has been more or less a game to Kurt, his mother feels that he should not be hurried into learn ing to read before he is of school age, however, with the facts he his already mastered he mey take off on his iwn unless he loses interest in things academic. ~ I I Toddlers’ Washable CAR COATS Many new 098 styles Wide choice of styles— in solid color and striped cotton sateen or solid nylon.

A Poem From Mrs. Eby ... —I I-ove A Tire**— I love a tree, a brave, upstand ing tree! When I am wearied in the strife, Beatin by storms and bruised by life. I look up at a tree and it re freshes me. If it can keep its head held high, and look the storm straight in the eye, Ready to stand, ready to die, Then by the grace of God, can I, at least with Heavens help I’ll try. I love a tree, for it refreshes me! I love a tree, when it seems dead, Its leaves all shorn and bared it’s head, When winter flings its cold and snow, It stands there undismay ed by woe; It stands there waiting for the spring, Oh! a tree is such a believing thing. I love a tree, for it refreshes me! I heard Gad speak today, I heard Him speak majestically, From out the tree top height, In grand tones, He spoke! The world grew hushed, we stood alone! Then did I hear Him speak the Psalmist’s lay; “Be still for I am God” This did He say.
