ANIMAL STORY Once upon a time there was a lion that growled bo loud he sound ed like Charles , and one. day he came near a poor porcupine, and it scared him so badly his hair stood out like Carl's. A monkey was Bitting in a tree near by and when he saw this he started to grin and his face looked just like Byron's. Then there wa3 a giraffe that wanted to see what was going on so he stretched his neck out until it was as long as William's, and a frog that jumped like James came too. An ostrich with legs like Kenneth came running up, and a duck that Bwara like Isaac came hurrying across the river to see what was happening. This crowd made the other animals curious, so soon there was a rhinocerous that looked like George, a wolf that ran like Clayton, a squirrel that climbed like Clifford and a great big turkey that squealed -r 1 1 J il a line Lioren au in uie crowu. And when they all got together it looked just like Warner School By Carl M'Creary. Dog Saves Girl's Life This summer 1 went to my grandma's. I had fried chicken nearly every day. They had a big dog. His name was Rover; I used to ride on his back. One day we went down to the creek and I fell in. If it had not been for Rover I might have drowned, but Rover saved my life.

HOW AN APPLE HELPED

Once upon a time there was a boy and a girl. The boy's name was John and the girl's name was Ruth. And as it happened, Ruth had a loose tooth. She had tried to get it out in many ways but she could not. She was afraid to let anyone pull it. So finally she let ft go and tried to forget all about it. It was the night before Hallowe'en when John said, "Ruth, let us go twt in the garden and make a Jack-o-lantern." First he made a nose and the eyes and then he cut the mouth. Then they hung two apples from the limbs of trees and tried to get a bite. Every time they would try to get a bite the apples would only move farther away. Finally Ruth took a big bite and her tooth came out and stuck in the apple. Donald Chenoweth, 5A grade, Warner School.

Flag Song of Warner School This song has been written for the littlest folks of Warner School but it can be used and enjoyed by everyone as swell. It is to be sung to the tune of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic." We love the stripes, we love the stars We love the field of blue; Our country's flag, we love it well, The flag for me and you. It says be brave; its says be pure; It says beb always true; The flag for me and you. Chorus. Oh, we love the starry banner. Oh, we' love the starry banner, Oh, we love the starry banner, The Red and White and Blue. By Julia E. Test. CHILDREN ARE CROWDED

This picture shows how crowded the children are at Warner bcnooi, and the reason we play on the streets so much is because our playground is too little. We don't get enough exercise at school. So, when we get home from school we play on the streets. This is very dangerous because we might get hurt with machines and other vehicles. I think Warner needs a play-ground more than any other thing. So many children get hurt at school. Some run into each other, and others get hit with the ball. That is because our playground is too little. The children of Warner School are not going to forget about our playground. Nellie Burton, 6A grade, Warner School.

THE DOG HERO . Helen Louise, aged eight, and Carl Edwin, aged ten, started out one morning to a creek near their home. Their mother prepared a basket of dinner for them and some old clothes for them to wade in and they took their dog, named Jack, with them. They went down the road carrying their basket and Jack followed behind them. When they got to the creek they set their basket by a tree and left Jack to protect it while they went wading. They waded until they were tired, then they gathered some flowers. By that time they had begun to get hungry. They went back to the basket and ate their dinner and gave Jack the scraps. They went wading again after they ate and Carl Edwin decided he would try a new place. He took Helen Louise by the hand and waded on into deeper, water and suddenly there was a' drop in the land and Carl Edwin and Helen Louise both went under the water. Jack saw them go under and he jumped and swam across the water to them as quick as possible. They were about twenty yards from the bank. Jack got Helen Louise by her dress sleeve and brought her to the bank and started after Carl Edwin when a man was passing by saw the little girl and Jack. He rushed to Helen while Jack got Carl Edwin

just as he was going down for the last time and Jack brought him to the shore. The man carried the children to their home and told their mother what Jack had did. The children soon got better and Jack could never be praised enough after that. Lena Chamness, 6B, Warner school. AT WARNER SCHOOL CANARY FIGHTS FLIES Our canary wili now fight the flies that get in his cage. He will flutter around and try to pick flies. He, will fight when Mother moves her finger around his cage. He will spread out his wings and chirp. He sticks up his feathers on top of his head. He Is getting more tame. He will flutter around when you give a tap on his cage. He is easily scared. When he takes his bath he will flutter the water around. He washes his head in his drinking cup. He will eat bread and apple. He will pick a hole in paper. The cat never catches her nor even tries to any more. We think a lot of our Birdie because he is a good bird. Charlotte Spalding, 6B Grade, Warner School.

THE UNTIDY GIRL

Once there was a little girl who always was dirty. Her hair never was combed and her dress always was torn. Her mother always would tell her to tidy up but she would say, "Oh what is the use, nobody will notice me.". But there was a fairy that saw her every day. So she went on like this for some time until one night when she was lying awake she heard a little voice say, (the girl's name was Irene) "Irene, Irene." Irene looked all around until she saw the tiny little creature on the bed post. The fairy said, "Come with me." So Irene got up and put her things on. For once she combed her hair, washed her face and tidied all up very nicely. They went to the queen's palace. (The fairy was the queen of the fairies.) Then the queen said, "I will give you anything you want if you will keep clean and neat all the time." So Irene did, and she lived happily all her life. Gladys Mervine, Warner school. 4 BETTY AND LOUISE'S REWARD Betty .and Louise were sisters. They loved each other very dear ly. One day they took a walk in the woods. They found a path and followed it to a castle and nobody was in it. They walked in and looked around. Finally they came to a room but it was locked. They knocked but nobody came and all was still. So they found an ax and broke the door in. There they found a note and this is what it said: "Dear Ethel; There is your chest of gold and the box of old trimmings of yours. From Joe." It was getting late so they went home. The next day they saw an adver tisement for a chest of gold and a box of trimmings. Betty and Louise took the things to the people and they gave ihem a big reward. So they were rich and went home very happy. Mildred Gardner 6A grade, Warner school. HOW TWO GIRLS WERE HAPPY There was once a little girl whose name was Ruth. She lived in New York with her mother and father. And just acroBB the street there lived a little girl whose name was Mary.

Ruth begged her father to let Mary etay with her and he did, so they both were happy ever after. Martha Shonkwiler, Warner School. BIG MARKET HOUSES IN CINCINNATI When I was at Cincinnati I went ' to the market house. Their market is about as large as from the beginning of A street to the end. They have three market houses there. One of them is where they sell fruits and vegetables, the other is the meat market, and the flower market. I went down town to Coney Island.

The water got In my boots and I had a hard time to get the duck. I finally got it and settled down to wait for the others to come back. After I had waited some time I heard the flaps of their wings ,so I knew that they were coming back. I knelt down behind my old friend the bush with my gun up to my shoulder, but I made some noise which made the ducks fly away so I had to wait again. While I was waiting up came my dog again bo I got him to lie down beside me. Then the ducks came back but instead of settling down they kept circling around in the air, I grew tired so shot up in the air, but missed them, and after that they flew back into the woods and settled In the trees. As we were going into the woods to hunt them a rabbit jumped out in front of me so I shot it. Then I came to a tree where I saw a duck. It was sitting on a limb which was dead. I got a good aim but just as I was going to pull the trigger the dog ran up and made me miss it. So I went home with one duck and one rabbit in my coat. I had a good supper that night and I ote lots.
