THK OMAHA MINI. A V f'.KK: MAY ST:. H It The Busy Bees I'MAVV Klindnv" la Mnir nbaot-lnil fill nve tho mtlntrV IndllT T T r a fitting climax to "He Kind to Animals Week," which 1 I wan practiced all of last week. These two Institutions were inaugurated this year by the American Humane association, which, for some weeks, has been urging a special campaign of humane education In the schools and from the pulpit. The object of this observance Is to secure one Sunday In the year to be set apart for special services, railing attention to the need of protection for ufferlng and helpless children, and also unfortunate animals; the same to be accompanied by a week of special observances deslgued to advance tho cause of animal protection and universal kindness. The question has been asked: "Why should one Sunday In the year be devoted to the special consideration of mercy and kindness In the treat ment of Ood's helpless creatures suffering little children and abused animals?" It is because they are sometimes victims of broadcast cruelty and ill treatment and because they are dumb and defenseless. The Busy Bees are urged to take It upon themselves to observe "B Kind to Animals" all the year round and to spread its practice among all their little playfellows. I am sure that most Busy Bees love their little pets too much to harm them ever, but they at met lines feel warranted In tor menting a stray cat or dog or even In pursuing birds with sling shot and robbing birds' nests. Each one of these is a crime, and I hope Busy Bees will do their utmost to abate the habits. This week first prize was awarded to Clarence M. Keed of the Ked Ride; second prUe to Gladys Frieze of the Blue Side, and honorable mention to Edith Weir of the Blue Side. day. H burned Iwii stires. the reetaur- I ant mim! tun- house to the ground.

Do you know what makes corn turn whit when you pop it? The next time you pop corn cut one of the raw kernels open with a large knife. You will see that the corn is yellow out aide and white inside. You will see that in each kernel there 1 a tiny round hole. Per haps you think that little hole la empty. It Is not. That little hole is filled with air. . ' - When the corn la put over the fire, the air becomes hotter and hotter. The beat also makes It get larger. At last the air gets so large that the little kernel can not hold It. It burst the kernel ope a and turns it Inside out, so that we can see the pretty white lining. (Honorable Mention ) The Doll Camp. ivy Edith Weir. Aged 10 Years, 8413 Podge btreet, Omaha. Blue Bide. -In the lot next door we built a park and camp for our lady dolls. It is all surrounded with stones. We have a pond in the park and another in tho camping grounds, for bathing. We transplanted a small tocuat tree and planted some grass last year. They have both come up fine. We put up five tents and have another one to put up. In the park we have a path made out of little pebbles. We have some roads in It, too. The path made out of pebbles leads up to a pile of rocks with a funny stone on top. It In supposed to be a mountain. We let our dolls sleep in tt for the first time tonight. Our White Kittens. By Florence. Reward, Aged B Years, 220 North Nineteenth Street, Omaha. Blue Side. ; Wo have two white kittens. One Is named Founy, and the other is a kitty named Fleecy. Fleecy and Founy get along very well. We had Fleecy first. Our friend, Georgia Reals, came to our house bringing a little white kitty, She thought it was F"leecy, so that is why she brought It up. "It can't be ours," my grandmother said. "Heecy Is up- atuirs." Well, we took it in and kept it. After a while Fleecy got along with the strange rat. Wc named It Founy be cauHe we round It. Fleecy talks with it and they will kiss each other when no body is looking. They play tag with me, too. At night time they will get into bed with me and sing me to sleep. We have still got them. Whenever a poor cat comes around we feed It, as we never could soe a cat starve. Country Venui City. By Ruby A. Kenover, Aged 12 Years, Columbus. Neb. Red Side. I would rather live in the country than in the city, because I think that you get more fresh air In the country than in the crowded city, with dust flying all around. Then you can have your own butter, eggs, milk, meats and grain, and you will know whether they are clean or not- "May." Hy Mary (irevson. Aged li Years, West Point. Neh. Hlue Piile. May is called the month of flowers. This month children will bang May baskets, pick the fragrant flowers and best of all watch the birds build their nests. Soon school wlU be out and the kiddles will be hunting Towers, having picnics In the woods and wading in the water. Some children will probably go to the seashore and In the country to visit grandma and grandpa, aunt and uncle and cousins. I love this month of May because we will have the May day festival.

After a while I he married an tunahi tnd an girl, telling her people ho hart another wife down the river. Among the Indians It w com mon for a man to have more than one wife, and the early Indian traders very cflen married a vife in each Irlbe where the) traded In order to make friends and help their business. While Lisa wss gone to Kt. I .mils a daughter w as horn to him In Nebrarka. The Indian mother was very proud of her little slrl. and when the time inme for Lisa to return she took her baby every day down to ths river and watched all day long for her husband s boat In order to be the fust to meet him and show him their child. When h inme the baby was named Rosalie The next year a son was born to Lisa and his Indian wife. Ho was nafied Kni moi d. When Rosalie waa S yeais old her father wished to take her with him to PL Iouls to l brought up and to go to school onioiiK tho white eople. The mother was very unwilling to lei her go and mas wild with grief when the boat with the little girl and her father passed out of sight down the river. This was In the summer of 1H17. That fall Lisa's first wife died, and on August 5. 11, he was married In St, Louis to Wary Hemp stead Koeny. She was a charming woman, very much loved by sll who knew her. At this time tho United Slates wss about to send an exploring party with soldiers up the Missouri on ths first steamboats ever used on that rlvtr. The soldiers were to winter In Nebraska. When Llha knew this he planned to have his white wife go up the river and spend the winter at Fort Lisa, helping to entertain the officers and making friends to secure trade, for Lisa was always thinking of more trade. Phe 'did so and waa the iirst white woman to come to Nebraska, with the possible exception ut Madam Lajcile in 1770. . Lisa sent word to Fort Lisa to have his Indian wife given presents and told to keep away from the tort while bis white wife was there. Ml tain, as the Indian wife was called, 'did so for a time, but at last came In with her little boy, Ray mond.

Lisa would not agree to this, but offered In r many presents If she would return to lier trilie. The poor Indian mother broke Into tears, saying tha their miirrlane was for life, that she could not marry now among her own people and that Lisa wss about to ruin her life and break her hearl by taking both her children from her. Her tears and appeals did not moe Lisa. He did not seem to know that an Indian mother loves iier children even as does a white mother and that no presents can pny her for the loss of them.
