Henry Fowler unraveled a large ball ef merriment when he pathetically recited a ludicrous tale concerning tha remarkable adven tures of a butcher's pig. The tale was characteristically short. Tha end of th tall was taken by Stands Mills as a cue to make bis smiling appearance. For ths enlightenment of those who may not know it, the name of L. Stands Mills suggests to tha knowing mind of the east side pupil a grand conglomera tion ,pf wit, genius and fun.

Unusual Accomplishment tqr Girls. " By Ruby t-lmmer, Mount Tabor, Ninth A. Not many years ago it was consid ered almost a disgrace for a boy to milk a cow and boys who did were often teased and called "Milkmaid." Now there are comparatively few girls who can milk a cow. Few girls in towns or cities have a chance to learn how to milk, but more frirla who do have a chance would learn t they knew the good It would do them In developing the muHcles of their arms and In overcoming their fear of that gentle horned creature that some girls are inclined to call "he." Some girls who have thin slablike arms would be surprised if they knew IK t Vj i 1 m ,. . -l ... . ; t - i u . v :u ', .... fj i -f, , tK, 'L J illiiiliissw "A Winter how much more shapely and beautiful their arms would become if they would milk a cow a few times every week. Of course tha muscles of the forearm become very sore at first, but this soon wears orr, ana it is very convenient to. have ' the grip which is aoquired tn this way. It is Very amusing to see ome city girls when they Bee a cow.

Da Vis called together the students of the high school in the large' assembly hall, for the i purpose of accustoming the pupils to their proper places in the nail, also to speak to them of the rare treat in store for them Wednesday af ternoon, when Professor Leotsakaa of Greece will lecture. ' Mr. Davis first mentioned the two benefit funds being asked for in all the schools and consequently -In . the high schoolnamely, the Salvation Ar my, and the Red Cross stamps. Then Mr. Davis called Dr. McKlnlay, of the faculty to the platform to have him briefly explain the meaning of the lec ture that will be given before the achool next Wednesday. Professor Leotsakas is a noted scholar and lecturer, lie Is a graduate of the University, of Athena, Greece, He has delivered his leetures before all the big colleges of this coun try, such as Vassar, Wellesley, ; Tale, Harvard, Princeton and so forth. - He talks on both the ancient and 'modern Greece,- He will give particular atten tion to the Olymnic games and sports of the Greeks, both as they were in ancient times and how. they are in mod ern times, -v.. ? ;": .;-,! , . The lecture Is to be given under the auspices of the Athletic association and all the proceeds will be handled by them after. Professor leotsakas Is paid. Al though attendance at the lecture Is pure ly voluntary, still it is hoped and ex pected that Interest and loyaltsm to the school will call out a large percent age of the students. The new series of programs on "Col onial Life" are proving to be very In teresting, indeed, to the Adelphlans and their visitors. . The special topic for Friday was. "The first fJew Englanders at Plymouth." Emma Muck told very graphically of a ''Trip through the land of the Pil grims. As we' sat and listened one could Imagine themselves visiting the old historical landmarks. Mildred Clem ens, gave the events leading up to and the compact drawn up in the Mayflower by the rngrlm fathers before their land ing at Plymouth, in 1620. One seldom thinks of colonial life without remem bering ' a few of the brave men who were so prominent tn that day. One of these Is Miles Standtsh.' With him is connected the charming poem by Liong fellow, called "The Courtship of Miles Standlsb." Adolf Una told in a simple, pleasing way the story of Miles Stand lsh and. Priscllla . 1 An interesting debate then followed. "Resolved. That colonisation is the best remedy for city poverty." The sffirm ative speakers were Glenn McCorkle and Helena Pearson. The negative support ers were Horace Miller and Maud Buck ner. The negative won tbe debate and thus the program ended. The Adelphlans were pleased to have with them on Friday, one of their for mer members, Pauline Pease, who is now in the East Side high school. Miss Pease when called, on gave a very in tereating description of the beautiful new high school she now attends. - Three new members. Bertha Young. Esther Olson and Luke Rader, were in itiated Into the Adelphlans on Friday. a a a h w. 7w ' 'ir-, U sT K V Scene" By Lola Sleight, Mount Tabor, Seventh A.

Then the debate, "Resolved, That the women of the. united States should have the right of suffrage." followed. Misses Keren Davis and Lela Shlnaberger sup ported the affirmative. Misses Kather Ine Tyler and Addle Bowie, tha negative. The affirmative won. This concluded the program for the day. Christmas Stories.

Tke American By Emma Fleet, Woodstock, Eighth "A", ..We had sailed. Into the harbor of a small, town one morning and were off duty, .The mats and I went for a walk out to the country. We .. saw some thing that looked like a, threshing ma ChineF At the sound of our approach a small black head Was thrust out of one of the holes In the aide. I asked If any body lived In there and In . answer to my question a little negro boy came out of. the machine. He said he lived there because it was made in America. We asked him ' who his mother was and he "A Pretty Decorative Panel" By Edwin PeierBon, Shaver, Ninth A. said, "Some old nigger woman, I guess, but my dad was an American." My mate asked Pat. for that waa his name, if he wanted to go on our ship and go to America. The little fellow was greatly pleased and said he would go with us. We started on the return trip to America the next morning. One day I heard the captain shouting and (wear ing. I asked what the matter was. -He told me to call Pat and see. I called Pat, and as he came to me I saw that his face was covered with the cap tain's cold cream. 1 asked him why he had put it on. He said. "I wanted to see If my face would be as white as yours, my dad waa an American." That settled the captain. One day something got the matter with a. large smokestack.. A large loop had to.be put over it to keep it from falling. The captain asked all the men to fix It, but none of them wanted to, for It was very dangerous work. Then Pat stepped out in front and said he would fix It. The captain pro tested and aald it was work for men, but Pat was firm and at last the cap tain consented to let him go. He warned him to be careful and not let the loop slip Over his body. Pat waa at the top of the smokestack just ready to put the loop over when the ship gave a lurch. and the loop slipped down over. Pat's f rait little body. The next moment his body fell to the floor of the ship with a thud. His little breast was crushed and broken. Pat's eyes wandered around until they lit on the stars and stripes. A sailor ran and brought It before Pat's eyes.

In XiOS King James of England granted the land from Cape Fear to the mouth , of the Potomac river to a com pany -composed of London merchants called the Lqndon company. ' This land was between the parallels of 14 and 38 degrees. i ; ; ' ' At the same time he granted the land between the parallels of '41 and 45 de grees to the Plymouth company. These two companlea - formed the Virginia company. ';.' In 1A09 the land from 200 miles south and 200 miles north of old Point Com fort, and west and northwest from "sea to sea," was granted to the Virginia company.

The Plymouth company had failed to make a settlement in the territory granted them, ao they lost their legal right to the charter. In 1630 members of the Plymouth company secured a new charter. This new charter gave them the right to the land between the parallels of 40 and 48 degrees north latitude and westward to the South seas, which is now the Pacific ocean. In 1628 some of the leading Puritans purchased from the Plymouth company a large tract of land in Massachusetts, lying between the Charles and Merrl mac rivers, extending from tbe Atlan tis to the Pacific ocean. In 1629 the king granted the men this charter, , t ' Over Night at Garibalda. , By AVlHiam A. Groat,1 Mount Tabor, Fourth B. On Tillamook bay there Is a little town called Garibalda. ' We stayed over night there las summur. We got off the ship and a boy gave me a ride behind him on his pony. Papa, a friend of his and I took a walk up the beach. I took off my shoes and stock ings and went in wading. Pretty soon a great big;-' wave came In. It scared me so that I would not go in for quite a Up the beach we found a great, big whale. It was dead. Ws also saw an old ship wreck which had only One mast sticking up out of the sand. , Pretty soon we went back. Then we ate our supper and went to bed. In the morning when we wok up we were stuck fast In the mud,-because tbe tide was so low, That morning a boy and I took a walk up the beach. We found a poisonous fish. , Its throat was cut open. Its color was green. The bojr found a- little crab. Then I found one. After that he found a great big one. We tried to give (it to lots of .people, but they would not take it. So we had to throw it away. The tide had come up by that time, so we sailed away over Tillamook bar. "Vircinia Charter" FAIRY TALE ' By HUE Pupil Puts 'Moral of Kind ness Into Imaginary Incident. By Stewart Pratt, Mount Tabor, Eighth i..' ',,...,;' ' ' .) V. , ' A-. J, V- .;-.' . :y;;h Ones upon - a time there was a poor widow who had two sons. The elder was proud and would not work, while the younger tried to help his mother all he could. They owned a small farm on which they lived. , , One day the , kind of that country had been stolen and that anyone who could find It and bring it back to him would receive (half of it as a rewsrd. As soon as the two sons heard this they were, both very anxious to go tn search of the ldst .treasure, The younger son begged his mother to let him go. but she told him his brother, being older, should have the preference. So on the following day the elder son, whose name was Hans, took money and food and started. After he had gone a few mites he met a little child who was crying- and who begged for food. But Hans- thrust her aside, saying, "I haven't time," and left the child crying by the roadside. After he had gone a few miles farther the road seemed to grow narrower and kept going up a steep hillside. It waa not very long before he was walking on a narrow path on one side of which waa a high wall and on the other a deep canyon. After awhile it began to grow dark and Hans., could hardly see his way along the narrow path, but he kept on,-thinking the road would grow wider. But Instead of growing wider it grew narrower until at last with a cry he stumbled and fell down the steep mountain side, being dashed to pieces on the rocks below. - His brother Frans, not hearingany thlng of-him, kept begging his mother to let him go. until finally, she con sented. He also met- the child, but Instead of passing' her, took some food out of the basket which he carried, and gave It to her. . After the child had finished eating, she said: "I am going to repay you for your kindness.' So saying, she .turned and beckoned Frans to follow, led him by a narrow path to an open space surrounding a king's castle. They reached the Iron gates of the castle and aa soon ss she touched them they swung open. The .moment the ragged little child stepped over the threshold she became a beautiful princess dressed In rich robes and with shining jewels in her hair. The princess then led the astonished Frans Into the presence of her father, who was king of the. castle. "While I was coming through the woods some wicked elves changed me into a poor, ragged child, and I wan dered along until this young man kind ly helped me. Grant him any favor in your power." "What will it be," asked the king. "I am In search of the? lost treasure of my king. If you can tell me where It is you will do me great service." , The king summoned one of his ser vants, who had great magic power, say ing. "Go to the caves of the elves, where you will find the treasure and bring It here before' the morning breaks."- Thus Frans recovered the lost foi tune, gaining the favor of his king and the hand of the beautiful princess In mnprfuir. mm ,- A kl. 1. 1 ...... . ....., iw u iui All KlllllllCB. What Would Be Nice for Christmas? By James Holfty Woodstock, . I would like to have it snowing so that I would have to come to school in a sled. I would like to have a party and invite all of the children in my class, especially the girls. We could have a nice time playing gamea and telling conundrums. And I would like to give each one a nice present. If It snowed I could have very much fun going sleigh riding every day and throwing snow balls and getting my face washed In the snow. If It snowed It would be better to be in the countrv because in the city there are so many people and they would tramp on tha enees- and the cement sidewalk. In the country there are not so many penDle and there are no cement sldewalka The roads would be the only place It would be tramped on and. there it would not be bad. Some poor children will not have any Christmas st all. It will be the same as ever on ,that day. Those are the peoDle who ought to have a 'nice time. If Mr. Rockefeller would give some of his money to those poor people thev would have a nice time for Christmas.' 'T-'' ' Skating.' By. Adrla Fletcher.
