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

wolves before, so they thought they

There was some snow on the ground

Popping Corn
By Gladys Frilze. Aged 13 Years, (iraee
vllle, Minn. IMue Side.
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.

-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

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

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

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.

I thank you for the book you sent me.
I read it through and it Is very Inter

One warm day In the afternoon as we
were seated In the room we heard some
thing chirping. Wo looked and there
what do you think we saw?
Two birds were sitting on the window
sill, chirping very loudly. First they
looked Into the room nnd then out. I
think they were trying to examine the
children. I thought this very funny.
A robin has built his nest In a high
tree. It is seen from the hall. There
were blue eggs in the nest, but now there
sre little birds. I think It Is Interesting
to watch birds' habits.

October 22, 1S22.
Her father, who was a drawing teacher,
gave her careful training at an early age.
Rut it was mainly her own study and
love for the animals that made her a
genius.
When she was only 18 years old she
exhibited two pictures, "floats and
Sheep" and "Two Rabbits."
One of her most famous pictures Is
"The Horse Fair."

There s a sturv of romance and sor- j
row connected with Lisa's family. When,
be iirxl came to Nebrasku he hnd a;
white wife In Ht Units. 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

that she knew it wss better for him to

Lisa, to lake her with him. She would

provide for her and make no trouble ir
only she mlk'ht see her children now and
then. Lisa would not agree to this, but
offered In r many presents If she would

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

and that no presents can pny her for
