How I Earned my Money
One day I was wondering
how 1 would earn my money to
send to the Near East Relief.
That, night I was playing outside
<>f the Drug Store with a dog
Mrs Hubrick was in the store
She saw me and asked me to take
a magazine down to the Judge
1 took the magazine down to him
wild he gave, me some money to
pay for the magazine. 1 gave the
money to Mrs Hul rick and she
gave me some candy. The next
day mother told me the Judge
had left me twenty five cents for
bringing his magazine down to
him. 1 had earned half of the mon
♦jy. I went to the store for my
sister and helped her with the
ui>hes for which she paid me tw
enty five cents. This is how J Kir
ned my fifty cents for the Near
East Relief.
Tin* History of a Sack of Clothing.
By Marion Wilis.
1 am a sack of clothing 1 loan
against the wail of the McCarthy
Schoolhouse. Long ago 1 vs..* fill
•mi with sugar, t have something
be iter than sugar now 1 have I
Ui esse.*, coats, hats, stockings,
shoes, and sweaters in me. S» on
1 am going to travel. 1 am going
lari her than many of you have
ever been. 1 am going over ocea
ns, railways, and through many
cities and towns. 1 am going to
-Armenia to a little girl who I am
going to keep clothed. The child
ren in the McCarthy School have
filled me with clothes to send to
their Armenian orphan. She will
be very glad to see mo. I also have
some men’s clothing in me. The
Armenian women, who aie very
industrious, will make them over
so they will fit some of the little
boys and girls. I am very glad I
am going there bdcause 1 will be
doing a good deed. I have also
heard that if the women in Me
Carthj want such articles as
table cloths, handkerchiefs, napti
ms, and other articles made of
limn. The Armenian women ma
ke these very skillfully, and will
sell them to you lor Xmas pres
ents. They send these to U.S. to
different Near East Relief * offic
es for them to sell It helps the
Armenian people to help them
selves. If anyone is going out to
Seattle, I would be very glad if
you .vould take me along. 1 have
n’t any money, you wouldn’t be
bothered with me at ail. All you
have to do is check me on ticket
and deliver me to one of the Near
East Relief offices. 1 would be
very grateful. If the ladies want
some linens, come up to the sch
3olhou»e and report to Mrs Harr
us.
Some 1 ttle time ago when
‘"Cap” Hu brick used to spend his
spare time roaming about the
hills, prospecting, hunting and
generally enjoying himself, he
was out with a party ol' prosp
ectors in the White River district
They had considerable difficulty
rit first getting anyone to take on
himself tiie job of cooking but
finally prevailed on one of the
party to cook the beans but it
was agreed that the first one to
complain about the grub had to
take over the cooking.
All went well for some time
until die cook began to tire of his
job and thought up a fine scheme
to make someone grumble. He
threw a big handful of salt into
the mush one morning before
serving it. Cap tasted his and be
fore thinking said, “My gosh, this
