There was once a little girl who always stuck out her tongue when ^omeone said anything to her. Her mother always said “Mary, if you don't stop it you will regret it.” Mary said, ‘‘oh mothery our just saying those things to scare me.” “Alright.” her mother replied you will see. That night Mary dreamed that she was at a fire and the chief asked herif she would kindly move out of the way because the fire was coming that way. At the time Mary’s mother was tiptoeing into the room, with er hshe had some red pepper in her hand Mary in her dream was sticking out her tongue at the fireman and really was sticking it out. Her mother very gently put the pepper on her tongue. The next morning Mary got up yelling and crying, "Oh mother” she cried "I am so sorry I didn't mind you, I will never stick out my ton_ gue again”. And she nkver did. Mary became a very pretty little girl. So always wherever you are mind your parents. VALARIA JOAN McCAW Editor i Women Wanted! To Sort Waste Paper U. S. Referral Card Reouired i OMAHA PAPER STOCK CO.
