The present queen, Mary Katherlne Harrison, who was elected last May,
writes today from her new home. She formerly lived in Omaha but has moved
to Republic, Mo., which she likes very much. .
Last week letters came from two girls who are J 6 years of age. They
were Interesting letters but could not be used since the age limit for the
Children's page Is 14. The editor of the Children's page had noticed the
stories of one of these girls In the Twentieth Century Farmer which is
published by the Bee Publishing company, and so gave her letter to this msga
sine. The editor also gave the article on the life of Mozart by the other girl to
the same magazine, where it will be printed In an early issue.

walked round It admiring th. flowers that
grew on the banks. Becoming tired, they
sat down on a fallen flower stem to rest.
While thus oceupted the green head of a
frog appeared above the water, and two
reat looked at them. "Ah, ha. Mrs.
Frog." smiled Mr. Mouse. "Howdy, my
dear Madam."
Mrs. Frog looked at Mr. Mous than
blinked her ey. and said: "Well, howdy,
Mr. Mouse. This la a One morning In ths

"Perfectly lovely." replied Mr. Mouse.
"Don't you wish you lived on the land In

Mrs. Frog winked and blinked, then she

A friend of our family once told ma of
an exciting time she had when Nebraska
was still unsettled. ' ,
She was alone In. a little log cabin with
her pet dog, when she heard the sound of
horses approaching.
On looking out Of the window she was
shocked and horrified to see thirteen In-

house.
She double barred the door, took her dog
and went up In the attlo (a small room over
head). Soon she could hear them pushing on the

The Junior Carapin; Party.
By C. A. Mattox, Aged 11 Tears, 624 South
Fortieth Street, South Omaha, Neb.
. I have been reading the children's page
a short time, and as I have seen nothing
regarding our trip, will tell you of some
ot the things we did.
We camped in the beautiful grove near
Seymour lake. Mr, Blmpson of our Toung
Men's Christian association was leader.
We spent much of our . time fishing,
swimming and boating. Each lad took his
own silver, plate, bowl and cup; . also
blankets. Some of our boys made a loud
noses at this and Mr. Mouse cried out to
Mrs. Frog: "You see. my dear, poor heavy
creatures like you don't know what It
means to really Uv.. Now, a frog Is only
a frog, and on. ought not to condemn on.
for being what he is created. But I can't
find It In my heart to pity even a dunes,
without a thought in life.
Mrs. Frog was on the point ot dipping
under water through sheer disgust, for ah.
would not exchange words with so unpleas
ant a creature as Mr. Mouse was showing
himself to be, when upon the log beside
her came her oldest son, a' fine green fellow
with resentment In his big eyes. H. bad
overheard the conversation between his
mother and the stranger on the bank.

One morning we had a hare and hound

"I know that I am talking to a dunce
whenever I addrews myself to a frog." re-
piled Mr. Mouse, his Impudent chin in air.
But before he had time to bring his chin
down again, and before Pinkie realised
what was going on about her, Toung Frog
had hopped from the log to the very spot
where the Mouses sat, and had thrown im-
pertinent, Insulting Mr. Mouse into the
pond. And Instantly three other frogs,
young friends of Young Frog, had com.
to assist In giving Mr. Mous. a good duck
ing. Vp and down they dipped him, and
after each dip Mr. Mouse had screamed
frantically to his screaming and excited
daughter: "Pinkie, for heaven's sake, go
for your mother!"
But In vain did h. cry out to the frogs.
Trey kept merrily on till at last Mrs.
Frog, stUl sitting on th. log, called out to
her son: "Enough, my son. Tou have given

Work
fer The Sunday Bee a few weeks ago and
ws all like to read it.
I'm a little girl 9 years old, and my
papa, mamma and little sister live on a
fruit farm a few miles from White Sal
mon. White Salmon Is located on a very high
bluff, overlooking the Columbia river, and
is the oldest town along this rlvpr. My
home is only a few minutes' walk from
the White Salmon river, where they catch
fo many big, red salmon, and also trout.
Lots of big log rafts are. towed from the
. White Salmon river to the Columbia river
and on down that stream.
The Indiana do lots of fishing for sal
mon. They dry them and keep them for
winter, as they also do huckleberries and
other wild berries.
There Is very beautiful scenery along the
Columbia river and Whltn Salmon river.
A very pretty bit Is a place called "The
Narrows." ' My Uncle Claude took a pic
ture ot It. and I will send It to you to copy
If you wish to print it, and then you may
please return It.
Several big steamboats ply between The
Dalles, Ore., and Portland, Ore. We used
to live in Portland and have taken several
trips on the steamers.
Lots of automobiles pass along the road
on their way to Trout Lake, Wash., filled
with city people or tourists, who go to
explore the big ice caves and to climb
Mount Adams. Ws can see both Mount
Adams and Mount Hood from the road.
Our district Is building a new modern

Doing: to the Circus.
Helen M. Waters, Aged 10
By
Tears,
Broken Bow, Neb.
Dear Busy Bees: I have been reading the
stories of the children's page and like them
sister and I started for the circus. Ths
very much. I would like to be a Busy Bee
on the Blue Side.
I don't believe I have seen any letters
from Broken Bow.
I wsnt to tell you about going to the
circus. After dinner mamma, papa, brother,
sister and I started tor the circus. The
sun was shining bright when we started.
We went, down the railroad track, as It
was down at the fair grounds. It took us
about twenty minutes.
We saw very many animals. In the
parade there were many sebras hitched up.
After the parade some of the people fed the
elephants peanuts. We saw lots of camels
and little monkeys. There was a giraffe
and many other animals.
We then went In to watch the perform
ances. Some of the largest elephants
he'll not forget his lesson."
Toung Frog let Mr. Mouse swim ashore,
which he did In a very feeble manner. When
he was upon dry land again he turned
about and began shaking his tall furiously
towards the group of laughing frogs,
"Com. on, papa." cried Plnkl., fearing
lest th. frogs should get hold of her
quarrelsom. father again. "Come, let's run
bom. as faat as we can. Oh, what a sight
you are. papa!"
"Tes, you'd better run along with your
daughter," admonished Mrs. Frog. "And
take my advice: don't teach her to follow
In your footsteps. You ar. a bad-behaved
mouse."
Plnkl. was leading th. drenched Mr.
Mouse away, however, and h. did not
catch all that Mrs. Frog was saying.
In his heart he knew he had been In th.
wrong, and that b. bad deserved bis pun
ishment. When he reached horn. Mrs. Mouss ran
out to ask him what on top ot earth was
the matter with him.
"Papa's been ducked oh! terribly
ducked," cried Pinkie. Then she fell to
describing th. scene at th. pond to her
mother.
"Say, husband, haven't you ret learned
how U oonduot yourself like a gentleman T"
asked Mrs. Mouse, disgusted at th. story
told so truthfully by her daughter, "Why.
I'm ashamed of you trolng to th. pond and
picking a Quarrel with that stupid frog
band. And look at yourself In th. spring.
You're worse than a ground squirrel In ap
pearance." And Mr. Mouse, feeling both sick and
humiliated, vowed to himself that never
again would he make a donk.y of himself.
"Treat all even frogs with due respect."
b. said to himself, as h. tucked his tall
between his legs snd colled up beneath
a, tuft of dry. grass to take a nap.

One. there was an Indian boy whose
name was Lone Wolf.
H. had never done any deed by which to
get a great name. So one day he set out
to do a great deed to get a name.
All he had was a bow and arrows and
knife. As he walked he saw an eagles
nest on a high cliff. H. thought be would
climb up and get an egg. There war. two,
so he took on. and climbed down. As he
was climbing down on. of th. eagls came
home.
Just as h. reached th. ground th. eagle
attacked him. Lone Wolf lay on his back
and kicked at the eagle. He had dropped
his bow and forgotten about his knlf His
moccasins w.r. torn from his feet and his
body bruised by the beating of ths eagle s
strong wings.
Suddenly h. thought of his knife (In
dians ar. skilled in throwing knives). He
threw it at the .aeTls. which clroled and
fall dead. Lone Wolf then became un
conscious. A hunting party found him
next day, and ever after that h. was oalled
Eagle Feather by his tribe.
