THE OMAJIA SUNDAY BEE: MAX lt. liiM. 11 B The Busy Bees A BRIGHT-EYED, curly-haired little miss stood by the desk hold a f 2 bill In her band. "Please, ma'am, this Is for some poor, little babies who can't do anything to help themselves. Won't you take It and give It to some babies who need UT" asked the diminutive maid. She was little Madeline Kenyon, whom all the Busy Bees know (or the many stories she contributes to this page, many of them being prise win tiers. Madeline is president ot the Star club, composed of fourteen Uttta girls who meet each Tuesday after school at the homes of the different members. The Star club is a miniature Fine Arts society and the members often walk into the park and pursue their drawing or painting lesson there, too. Their dues are one penny each meeting. It any little girl forgets to bring her penny one week, she brings two pennies to the next meeting. From these pennies, in the manner that giant oaks from little acorns grow, the sum of $2 was amassed. An earnest discussion as to what use the funds should be put ensued. Then it was decided that the money should be used for helpless little children, the younger the children, the better. The editor declined to take the money, but offered to assist the little president in placing the funds. The purposes and alms of several children's Institutions were presented and discussed, but the vote was In favor of tho youngest babies they could help. The $2 was turned over to the Visiting Nurse association to help towards the baby milk station which the associ ation hopes to establish In the foreign settlement. The members of the Star club are: Madeline Kenyon, Edith Kenyon. Mildred Rawaon, Edna Anderson, Miriam Wesner, Mildred Nlseon. Laurane Bancroft, Arllne Bancroft, Edith Gaskill, Juliet Wesln, Irene Larson, Orma Koch, Josephine Drapler and Frances Oafford.

X out the doll's dress the very first My , grandma taught me how to cut the dresses and showed me how to run the sewing machine. The color of my doll's dress Is a pink silk, and the cap was made of the same goods, but It was trimmed In 'little- pink and blue forget me-nots. and there was a little band of black llk around It,' too. The dress was a one-piece dreas with a panel down the back and front It had a cerise sash around it I made the underskirts plain t the top with embroidery around the sleeves, and the neck and around the bottom. I am going to bring my doll . to school when I have her underskirts done, because it takes a long time to Bet all these things made. If you do It In a hurry It won't be very neat.

He could read quite well In the papers he carried and oh, how he did love to read. But be longed for a Uttle Bible of his very own. He had seen the boys and girls on their way to Sunday school, proudly carrying their Bibles. There was a place for all he earned, and he did not see how he could spare one penny. But he was not the kind of boy to sit down and wish and not do anything, so he asked a neighbor to let him weed tho garden. For this he received 35 cents a month. He priced the Bibles and found that he could get a very nice one for a dollar. What a happy day It was when he had earned enough to get it It was on Saturday that he made himself the proud owner of a nice, new Bible. He soon learned to read In it quite as well as be did In his papers, and every Sun day he is among the happy boys and girls on their way to Sunday school. "Black Beant7 and Ginger."

"Stop beating that animal or you will be arrested. I am sa officer of tho Humane society," and he showed his badge. My driver stopped whipping me with much reluctance, grumbling as he did. I, by this time, was entirely exhausted and unable to stand any longer dropped to the ground. The Uttle girl's father, Mr. Gray, looked at me pityingly and said, "Nelly, what would you say If I bought this horse, and then maybe your grandfather would buy her from me. She Is not an old horse,' he continued, stooping down to look at my teeth; "only 14 years, and la not wind-broken, but bar back has been terribly strained. We will aek the man If he will seU her." My driver consented it he could get at least l out of me. Mr. Gray gave my driver the money by Little Folk RULES FOR TOUNG WRITERS 1.

It sounded Uke a hailstorm. But as our dining-room table stood a little ways off, the cupboard feU on top of It Other wise we would not have come out so lucky. We were both hurt pretty badly. The broken dishes cut us quite a bit over . our beads and bands. One of my knees was eut quite deep. We crawled out and cried so loudly that mother came running to the bouse to see what was the matter, and she was glad that we came out safe enough.

Alan was a boy ot 15 with black, curly hair and black eyelashes. He was a beautiful boy, but had no father, and. of course, his mother had to work every day and Alan worked, too. But still the money did not last because there were two younger children at borne. The boy's name was Abel and the girl's name was Rachel. They had but one pair ot shoes each, that had to last them a year. They wore no shoes all summer, because if they did they would not last them and they could not go to school. One day as Alan was on a wagon de livering groceries to people he saw a poor man who-could not get across the street because the wagons and automobiles oame by so fast Alan was a kind boy, always wanting to help others. He stopped his horse. Jumped from bis wagon and helped the old man across. The man gave Alan 16. Alan was so hapry he could not watt till evening so be could tell his mother. They were all pleased with Alan and his sister and brother always wanted to help others, too, after that day. But It was not the money that pleased his mother so much; It was how kind he was and it made his sister and brother kind, too. Kindness pays.

Manuel Lisa was the founder of old Nebraska. Old Nebraska waa the No- break a of tu years ago. It waa, first of alt. a narrow strip of country uloag the Mlxaourt tlvet where the white men came to trade with the lmllans and where they built log cabins In which te live and stcitt their goods. Hack of this narrow atrip were the great plaiita and valleys ot Nebraska, with herds ot buf falo, elk, dser and antelope, whose skins the Indiana brought In from their sum mer and winter hunting tripe. In the streams and lakes were plenty of beaver, mink and otter, and their pelts were taken by the Indiana and eagerly bought by the trader. All the traders In Old Nebraska came up the river from St. Ijoula in open boat a. Sometimes these boats were canoes hollowed out of a great tree, and sometimes they wre made out of plank. Theee boeta had oars and sometimes a mast and small sell It waa easy to go down the river la them, but to oome up against the swift current was very bard aad elow. Keen boat waa pulled up the river by a long rope called a cordelle. the men walking along the bank or splashing across the sand bare and shallows with tae rope over their shoulders. It took them fifty days to drag a boat from St Louis to the mouth of the Platte. The trip down waa made In eight days. The men who pulled theee boats and those who traded with the Nebraska In dlans in those days were nearly all Frenchmen, but the greatest leader among them was Manuel Lisa, a Span lard. He was born la New Orleans, came to St. Louis when a very young man and at once began trading with In dians.

In all Nebraska and far up the river "Manuel" was the moat widely known as the great white man end leader. Trouble wes brewing between the t'nlted States and Great Britain. The Hudson's Cay company wished to get all the furs from the Missouri river. It sent agents from its posts to all the tribe oa ' the Missouri and Mlastaslppt stirring them up to attack the American settlers and making them presents ot rifles and powder and lead. Teeumseh. the great Indian war chief of the west, waa going from tribe to tribe urging all the Indians to forget their quarrels with each other and before it was too late to Join in driving the white men from the country'. Most of the tribes on the Mississippi river Joined the league of Teeumseh. and fought with the British against the United States. The tribes beyond the Missouri were four times as numerous as these on the Mississippi. If they bad Joined the British and poured their thousands of warriors agalnat the whit settlements it is likely that St. Louis would have been taken and the frontier drive back 600 miles. But though every effort wss made to have them do so the Indians beyond the Missouri remained true to the ITnlted States. On the cliffs of Blackbird hill, deeply eut In the rock. Is a British flag.

He was made sub sgent of the United States for all the tribes above the mouth of the Ksnsss river. He built Fnrt Lisa on the Mis souri river, ten miles above where Omaha now stands.
