par.de .nd no elephants they said "This
cannot be much of . show." and they did
not go. The strike was growing serious.
One day two of the keepers were talking
about the strike near the parrot's cage,
when one of the parrots (who had heard
the elephants say why they had gone on
a strike) cried out, "Don't give elephants
enough to eat."
The keepers gave the elephants more to
eat that night, and when it came time for
the elephant s act they went to get them
to see if the parrot told the truth. The
elephant, went In obediently and performed
their act.
After that the elephants were, always
Given enough to eat, and they never again

claws, and she felt that they were there

scratching her bwW little body or the soft
bark of some shrub bushes that grew in

How Belle Was Cured
Alice Cirassmeyer, Aged 13 Years.
By Augusta Kibler. Aged 14 Years, Kear

There were fifty elephants ln the menag
erie of Woollng's circus. These elephants
took part In the parade and the two per
formances dally. But although the ele
phants did all this work they were given
very little food.
The elephants got to thinking, and then

Belle Gibson was the daughter of well-to-do
people. Belle had good manners and n
sweet looking little face, but she had one
bad habit. She always said, "I don't care."
Her parents were at a lose to know what
to do with her, for they did not want their
daughter to grow up that way.
Once she tore her nicest rt.v dress, but
ne only said, I don't care." And she
had turned the grindstone, and she never
said "I don't care" again.

A Picnic
By Mildred Foote, Aged 10 Years, 1313 Tark
Avenue, Omaha. Red.
One day a friend and I went down to
Hanseom park to have a picnic. When
we got there we went up to a place that
was surrounded on all sides by beautiful
green shrubbery. On one side there was
two or three rows of sumac so thickly
grown that you could not see through it.
Back of It there was a low place, and here
we saw a low opening or door. Nearby '
we saw a door-shaped piece of sod which
looked as If It had been made to fit in the
door.
We had been told that robbers haunted
the park, but we did not believe It.
Pretty soon we saw two men ascend from
the cave (for it was a cave that we saw
some boys had dug it, and the other end
opened somewhere In the park). We ran
as fast as we could, for we thought that
those men were surely the robbers.
But come to find out those njen were our
pwn fathers, who had come to eat lunch
with us. so we came back laughing over
our scare, and we had a very merry picnic.
The Sand Park
By Hazel Haase. Aged 13 Years, Kearney.
Neb. Blue, ,
The long summer vacation was almost
gene; only a few more ahort weeks re
mained, when a load of nice white ssnd
was unloiuJed in the back yard and the
children invited to take possession, an In
vitation they promptly accepted.
Although at first they hardly knew what
to do with It, they finally decided to make
a fine purk. With a rake thoy leveled it
out and with the sprinkler made it wet
enough to stay where they put It.
First, the walks were laid off. A fountain
was made ln the center by sinking a china
bowl into the sand and standing a flower
vase up In It.
With the building blocks they made
Well-Bred Little Polly.
She never soiled her pretty clothes;
She was never known to pout.
When she was told to stay Indoors
She never did go out.
If she was told to sit quite still
I'pon her little chair.
You really might ss.ure yourself
That she would sit right there.
If ugly children called her names
She merely sat snd sm5d;
She never quarreled back at them;
She was a well-bred child.
Of course, she never worked a bit;
She couldn't sweep nor sew.
She couldn't cook nor make a bed.
For she was a doll, vou know.
MAUD WALKER,
Story of n Lost Curl.
A dear little girl
Had a snarling bad curl,
A curl that she .could not comb out:
Tho she tried and she tried,
She combed and she cried,
And 'Us said she really did pout! '
But the naughty curl
It would not unfurl!
So the little girl said one dny:
"The scissors I'll get,
An' then you Jus' bet
I'll whack you and throw you away!"
