Go-Hawks Give Rather Than Receive. MOST of you write much more about the letters you want to receive than about what you want to give. So that proves that you are thinking more about what you receive than what you give, and that is really too bad, for It is so very much more fun to give than to receive. Those who have been Go-Hawks a long time have learned that this is true. Because they all thought so much more about giving than receiving, there are today 600 little children in France and Belgium for whom the Go-Hawks cared for during the war. Do you think they will ever forget the Happy Tribe? No, never as long as they live. Remember, if you really wish to make new friends among the Go Hawks and exchange letters, there is nothing to prevent you except that you are waiting to receive rather than willing to give. Now start the other way and you will find it great fun. Another thing, you must all be very careful about your letters. Make them more interesting . Write things that are worth while. Write the sort of letters that will prove you really had a right to wear thb pretty button that stands for so many things that are good. Once in a while I have heard of a letter starting on its journey that should never have been sent. Poor little letter—if It could speak it would beg of you never to be sent, for it is ashamed of itself and knows that it will disappoint. Tou nit know when-you have written a good letter, one of which to be proud Try never to let any other kind bear your name. . Give the best of yourself in each one. In this way flIn only are the Go-Hawks able through letters to make J ^ V*J VI| new friends and to keep them.

NOW OO ON WITH THK STORY. (Continued from Last Sunday.) “And, Unci© Peter, w© have •verything arranged with Miss Kel sey. We have told her you would come and so you will Just have to go " She was silent a minute and then said sedately, “We have tak en you to raise, and so you will have to be raised as we think beat. Being raised Is hard sometimes, I know," and she squeezed his hand sympathetically, as on© who knew whereof she spoke. “I like being raised over again,“ he protested, “and there’s not a bit of use in your being missionaries unless you do your work well. If you think It is the correct thing for a heathen to go to danc.ng school, of course I will go. I tell you I am mighty glad now that Patience bought me that now suit.” ”You are such a comfort. Unci© Peter, oh, such a comfort. I don't suppose any mother ever had a bet ter boy than you. and I am so glad you are not stiff in your joints. Goodness, there is Aunt Sallie call ing mo again and I w.ll have to go thia time.” She kissed him affec tionately. "Good night, dear, and I am so glad I am your heathen.” "Have you enough cover?” She could not refrain from lingering a minute longer. ‘‘You had better Bay your prayers In bed, for the floor Is cold, and If you want any thing In the night you will call me, won’t you? X want you to atay all Umbered up so you can two step •a well as any of the boy»,” were her closing words as she left the room CHAPTER IX. Pleasures of Dancing Mcliool. Uncle Peter lay awake for some time after Prudence had gone. He wa« thinking of the events of ths past si* months and laughted soft ly to himself over many recollec tions. He hod been happier than he would have dreamed possible, for the children had grown to fill • large place In his Interests. Not only had he won the love of the missionaries, but It seemed to him that all children smiled Into his eyes, and he was proud of his oon q nests. Another Way to Be a Good Go-Hawk A good Go-Hawk does not neglect his garden. During the hot weather a garden needs plenty of water and watchful cars to see that It la kept Jroe of weeds. Whether you are raining flowers or vegetables, please remember this way to be a good Go-Hawk. awaci— - When other men came to spend an evening with Professor Trevellyn Uncle Peter would listen to them vaguely as they discussed the world of finance. None of its great hap penings disturbed his peace of mind, but seemed far removed from him. He tried to appear interested be cause these things were of moment to Sallie and Philip, and he loved them. Still he vaguely pitied those who were obliged to devote time and energy to such troublesome af fairs. for he had turned back the pages of life and come again to the childlike attitude and faith. It is nil beautiful and right that life's cares slip awajr as they do, when life's journey is nearly at an end. Uncle Peler envied no man. and he felt richer than a king, for he had. what seemed to him the very best thing In the world, the love of lit tle rhildren. His young friends were a never ending source of Interest and amusement to hlrn. He found him self studying them and planning for their pleasure. As he lay back among his pillows half dozing, half dreaming, he realized that he was more proud of the children's affec tion for him than he had ever been of anything else. He did not know Just why they loved him, but hs knew that It made all else In the world seem small by contrast. So tender was Uncls Peter's heart that he could not refuse their childish demands, comical though they often were. He was amused at the prospect of his going to dancing school and he fell asleep with a smite on his face. During the next few days he often took from his pocket the ticket Prud ence had given him. He would laugh heartily and at the same time it never occurred to him that he would or could refuse to do as the childron wished. They loved him, wanted him to share their pleasures, and these were reasons enough for him to try to grant their requests. Grave was the responsibility felt by the missionaries at the thought of taking their heathen to dancing school. However, they knew that he would be welcome, for his sun ny smile and unfailing kindness bad mads him a general favorite. "Uncle Peter, you remember how to dance the Virginia reel, don't you?" asked Prudence as they took their early morning walk. "Tea, Indeed, I remember and I used to like the Virginia reel best of all the dances when I was young. Why do you ask?" (Topyrlsht hr David McKay. All rlxht* r«*orv«d.

George Ross, has sent me a drawing and direction for making a game of Ring Toss. Use a cardboard box four inches across the top and a small cnrdboard mailing tube. Cut a piece the size of the end of your mailing tube from the base of your box and then turn the box over. Fit the mailing tube down Into the stand firmly. This makes your stake. The rings may be made either of raffia or heavy cord. I'se several thicknesses. Cut each into 12-tnch lengths and sew or tie ends to gether. Rings may slso be made out of cardboard by cutting strips and sewing the ends of the strips together. Lightweight curtain rings may also be used. To play the game, each person tosses three rings over the stake, one at a time, standing five ruler lengths awayt The one who first tosses over what ever ths chosen number may be wins the gams. Sounds Jolly, doesn’t It? PFTER. Peter was out washing the cur for daddy yesterday and when he came In he aurcly did look hot and tired. "Can't we have something cool to drink. Poll?" he asked. "Yes. Indeedy." I answered, and so I tried this: CHOCOLATE MILK SHAKE. One egg, one glass of milk, one to two tablespoons sugar, one to two teaspoons cocoa. Heat the egg (both the white and yolk.) Add sugar and cocoa and beat. Add milk and beat until foamy. This will make a little over a glass. I doubled the recipe and put It In tall Iced tea glasses and added some Ice Just before I took It In to Peter, and you should have seen him grin from ear to ear when he saw me coming with my little tray.

Fa mous old live oak trees are to be found In many places In the south. It la no wonder we love them, for all through the year they wear a crown of green. Even though the leaves last only one year, they cling to twigs and are kind enough to remain green until they are pushed off by the opening of new leafy shoots. If you had looked at the new leaves on the oak trees this spring you would have found them much brighter than the darker old ones. In tha south tha live oak trees are often draped with long ropes of the Spanish mesa It Is really not a moss, but a flowering plant that steals Its living by hanging to the bark of trees.
