K2 Sunshine Shack Girls Have Jolly Times WHAT a Jolly name and how easy It la to imagine the good times that the Sunshine Shack Girls must have had this summer. They all live in Loogootee. Tnd., and the shark whafe they hold their meetings Is on a nearby farm. These girls are all 13 years old and Dorothy Doyle Is their chief. Five girls who live In Canaan City, N. H., and their leader. Lena A. Tucker, have not only had hikes and picnic* this summer, but have remem bered to prove themselves good Go Hawk* wherever they have been. Myrtle Howell and her tribe of 20 members are In Marlon. They have been making doll clothes with the thought that later they will give pleasure to some little girl* who ate in the children's hospital. Myrtle also enjoyed making scrapbooks out of the things she found in Happyland. From St. Joseph, Mo., comes the good word that Durlena Bartlett and nine of her friends are now Go Hawks' and trying to help eume one every day. When exchanging letter* do so with the feeling that you will do your very beat to he a real friend to this new Go-Hawk who lives so far away. Mtke your letters Interesting, telling of your country, the city where you live, etc. And now goodhy until next Sunday. fezsxs.Krfiai I teased Teter the other day, for I told him he surely had lots of friends tvho were looking for him.

Tommy was a little fellow, age 7. who never did hardly any work. It couldn't be said of him, he exactly disliked work, for, If he was In the mood, that is, If he didn't have any thing else to do euch as play. Ills favorite enterprise, he was perfectly willing to do any kind of work. One day he was out playing as usual, when who should pounce upon him but bis mother Just as he "as going in to get a cap gun to play cowboy. She wanted him to do an errand, the very thing he was trying to sneak in and out to escape. "Aw! Gee whiz! Ma! Well! Just a minute." Slam, bang went the door ftnd he was out like a flash to play cowboy for Just a minute, which I must say was unusually long and you must not be surprised when I tell you that Tommy soon forgot to do the errand. At supper time he came in all fagged out from a ride on his pre tending horse broncho, and after eat ing supper was willing to sub mit to his mother's usual "Go to lied Tom." Suddenly after being In bed a while, O Joy! O joy! He was in the most beautiful park you ever saw be side a little stream. There was an old gentleman walking along, who asked him to take a walk. Sure, was the answer. As they wrf walking along, they suddenly came upon a little village cosily set In among the trees, but. why, why such a queer looking vil lage where all the children are work ing, thought Tom right out loud. The old gentleman on hearing this turned around and raid: "This Is the land of—Just a Min ute." Tome Just good still and stared an-1 stared, there were children doing er rands, raking lawns mowing lawns, spading gardens. The more Tom saw the more his cheeks burned. "LL-Let's go home," he finally managed to say. "Alright," was the reply. Bang, Tom Jumped, but Hot on the grass, he was sitting up in his own bed. A litile morning breeze that had shut a door had frightened him. Then as lie sat there he heard a voice say. "Tom, won't you set the table?'' Tom wo* up In a jiffy getting Ills elothM on and going down to *et the table. Ha had learned a lesgon, BILLY ELLSWORTH. Age 11 years. 5104 Izard Street. Omaha, Neb. A NARROW ESCAPE. One evening Frances’ and Verna’* < ..iiein, Blanche, were over. They went behind the cobhouse to the woodpile. There was a gas tank theelze of a barrel. They dumped It over. They did not hear any splash so they didn’t think there was any gas in It. They took a board and seesawed ov»r It. They became tired of that, so started for a hill close by. fi <>v rolled cn It down the hill sev• oral times At the bottom of ihe hill v as a ha.i rake. Verna '.vent down the hill and humped Into the rake. The tank rolled over her hip Frances ran down to see what was the matter, hut she was not hurt. Then they went to the house When they came in the house France*' end Verna's father asked what, they had been doing. They said they had been behind the cobhouse playing with the empty gas tank II» asked them which one they used. They said the one by the woodpile. Hr sold that one had about a gallon of gas In It.

Jimmie's father had waited to h«!p the little fell w out, whom the | children greeted Joyously. "This is Jimmies seat right here.** Tinker pointed with much pride toward his handiwork. Mrs. Shirley tucked ex'ra shawl* about the boy. and tr*cd to make him comfortable "Isn't this fine, dear?** .‘he aekod efter they had gone a few blocks. Is my seat safe?" he whispered in reply. *1 can t tell whether It la going to rock or tip ever." Tinker overheard the word*, and felt that It waa for him to defend his work. "If I wanted to get a patent on them I'd call them sleigh rookera.* I fixed them that way to make them ride easier."* Jimmie had never had a Mirulf i save in his diwarns, and he felt It was not for him to find fault.
