When wo heard that tho United States
hal captured Vera Cruz we girls were all
sure that we would win In the war.
During our noon hour, Weanesday, wo
played war. One of the boys boasted
that he could kill any Mexican, and so
we started off to tho southern part of
our playground with our Jumping rope,
protending that was Mexico. Wo girls
wero tho United States army, because
one of us had a dress with tho letters
"U. S. X." on it, while tho hoys yere the
Mexicans, or "greasers," as wo called
them.
Then tho war began. The United States
army tied the Mexican army up to a tree.
Then we had a prisoner. More boys camo
to help and ho got loose. Then they got
tho ropo and tied us all together. We
could not get loose qulto as soon as tho
boys did, but when wo did we lassoed
the leader of tho Mexicans, the one who
said he could fight any Mexican. After
he got away the war broko up and peace
was declared by tho old school bell.

on somo of the plainest looking ones.
After wo came homo from school one
night we went upon the hill, about one
halt mile from our homo, to pick wild
flowers to put In our baskets.
We found violets', wild sweet peas and
daisies. In the bottom of the baskets
we put candy, popcorn and nuts. After

Our Hike.
By Mary Langdon, Aged "12 Years, Gretna,

Some of tho seventh and eighth grado
girls went for a "hike" to a walnut
grovo about a mile from town. The
teacher took her kodak and took our pic
tures on a hill. When we arrived- at tho
grovo soma of us gathered sticks to build
the fire, while the rest prepared tho
lunch. We had much fun while roasting
the wienies; they were very hard to keep
on tho sticks and fell, many times, into
the ushes beforo they wcie ready to eat,
then we had to remove the outside. Our
pictures were taken while we wero stand
ing beforo tho fire holding wienies on
sticks; also whllo we were squatting
around tho fire.
I put a wienie on tho end of a stick by
means of cord and held It up from my
inouth, resolving to catch It in my mouth
before I could have a bite. 'This, how
ever, was not a very easy thing to do
and everyone laughed at my vain at
tempts to catch it. but 1 finally suc
ceeded in getting a bite.
We also had p!o, oranges, sandwiches,
pickles and salted peanuts.
After lunqh we wont to a farm house
to get a drink, thon to a creek to get
pussy willows and other buds. We talked
about the afternoon and what fun we had
had.
Walter and Zena.
By Opal Smith, Aged 13 Years, Boone
County. Nebraska. Blue Side.
Long, long ago, there lived In Holland,
a boy and a girl whose names were
Walter and Zena. They worked hard
every clay and when night come they
would get the papers from America and
read them through. One night whllo
they were reading they heard a tap at
the door, so Zena ran and opened it, and
there before them stood a man dressed
In clothes that looked nothing like their
own and had beautiful shoes on, hot
wooden, but leather. They told him to
come In, but he would not.
Then he said, "The king sent me here
to see if the two children could come
with mo to the palace and Join a contest
which is one to see who can pick up the
most pins in one day. The winner will
gt a $50 gold piece.
The father and mother was surprised
to hear of gold pieces for thoy only knew
'silver pieces. So the father and mothor
said they could go. They Jumped Into
the carriage and went flying to the king's
palace. When they reached there the
King put them In a room where there
were pins, nothing but pins, so they
began to pick up pins. They wouldn't
stop for dinner until night came and
then they counted them. Walter hal
ought to bo fittingly observed by all.

How Jim Found His'Unole.
By Ruby Anderson, Aged 11 Years, Val
ley. Nob. Blue Side.
You must leave right now, for I won't
havo another thing to do with you."
"But whero In tho world shall I go,
father?"
Tho two people, talking wero Mr. Will
Morris, a cruel man, and his son, Jim.
Tho boy picked up his ragged coat and
cap and ran down the dirty street. When
he reached the dock, a ship was going to
leave for Europe In an hour. While no
one was watching he slipped on the ship,
but when he camo on board lie met the
captain.
Jim was very frightened, He thought
he would try to run past him, but the
captain stopped him and said very good
naturedly,' "What are you doing here,
my boy?"
"Well, papa said I had to leave him,
so when I got down here I thought I
would get on' while no ono was watching
and hide. What are you going to do to
mo?"
Tho captain smiled, but said. "You
may go to Europe, but 'tell me what Is
your,name."!' - f
"Jim Morris," waa the reply.
"Why, that's my name," replied the
captain. "And what Is your father's
name?"
"Mr. Will Morris, sir."
"Will Morris?" gasped the captain,
falling into his chaJr.
"Why, what is the matter?" asked
Jim.
Then the captain opened his eyes and
askod, "Did your father ever mention
Henry Morris?"
"Yesi many 'times," replied Jim.
"Then," said the captain, "I'm your
uncle.
"My uncle?" gasped Jim.
"Sure as you're living," answered the
captain.
In later years both Jim and his uncle
becamo reconciled to Will Morris. Jim
became captain 'of tho ship when his
uncle died.
Daniel Boone.
By Carl Gcertz, Aged 10 Years, Alex
andria. Neb., R. F. D. No. 2. Red Side,
" When Daniel had grown to manhood
he wandered off with his gun on his
shoulder and crossing tho mountains en
tered what is now the state of TenV
nessee. That whole country was a wil
derness, full of savage beasts and still
more savage Indians, and Boone had
many a sharp light with both.
More than 150 years ago ho cut these
words on a beech treo, still standing in
eastern Tennessee: "D. Boone killed a
bar on this treo In the year 1760.". You
will see if you examine the tree, on
which tho words can still be read, that
Boone could not spell very well; but he
could do what the bear could mind a
good deal more ho could shoot to kill.
The hunters were on tho lookout for the
Indians, but the savages practiced all
kinds of tricks to get the hunters near
enough to shoot them. Sometimes Boono
would hear the gobble of a wild turkey.
Ho would listen a moment, and then ho
would say, "That Is not a wild turkey,
but nn Indian, Imitating that bird; but
he won't fool ine and get me to come
near enough to put a bullet through my
head."

ventures, but enjoyed our trip very
much.

KENNEDY TALKS SUFFRAGE
Former Congressman Discusses Also
Strike Situation
SAYS WOMEN NOT AT FAULT
Women Did Not Vote In the Begln-
nlnir Ilrcnnsc the Government
Wni Tfhnt of Brute Force
of Men.
John L. Kennedy, speaking before the
Non-partisan club ot Benson Friday
night, asserted that tho state may own
tho mines In Colorado "If the mine own
ers, residing In Now York and the east,
continue to disregard human lite aa they
havo In tho past."
Mr. Kennedy criticised "statements
mado In Omaha," Indicating that women
aro responsible for the strike outbreaks
In Colorado.
"Women do not hold many executive
offices in Colorado," ho said, "and there
are estimated to be 60,000 more men in
Colorado than wbtnen. Tho women went
to the governor of Colorado and de
manded that he secure federal protection
for minors and Btrlkcrs. and told him
they would not leave the capltol until
ho made tho formal demand upon tho
president. He made tho demand and or
der was restored and Is now maintained
In Colorado."
'There havo been mine outrages In
West Virginia nnd Michigan, but only
men vote there,"
Mr. Kennedy declared that the reason
women did not voto In tho beginning waa
that "government In tho beginning was
by brute force; wo do not do things that
way now."
Answering other objections to equal suf
frage, he said "we are told that women
have no political judgment. 1 know many
men who havo no political judgment, and
I know many men ask others how to
voto."
"I cannot understand why women who.
Co not vote should try so hard to keep
other women from voting."
Mrs. 'A. T. Llndsey, president ot tho
Douglas County Suffrage society, de
clared there wero never so many men
wanting ono thing as there are women
now wanting' the voting privilege.
S. Arlnn Lewis, Omaha opponent of
equal suffrage, will meet Mr. Osborno
In tho council chamber of the city hall
Monday evening to debate tho "Votes
for Women" question. Suffragists expect
a large attendance.
