Harry Liked School at Joseph Moore There was once a little boy who was not happy. He was very poor

and could not go to school. He

was so unhappy that at night he would lie and, cry in his little bed. One day his father said to him, "Harry, why are you so unhappy? You do not eat anything?" Harry

said, "I am unhappy because 1 can not go to school." "I will take you to a nice school in Richmond. It is called Joseph Moore school. You will like to go there." Harry was

very happy. The next morning he came to his father and asked If he

would tako him to school. His

father took him to school and his teacher's name was Miss Davis. Harry liked her very much and she liked him. Merlam, Joseph Moore.

"Where are we going to stop first?" asked Jane of Captain

Brave, as the children and their

friends n eared Greece in the big airplane. "Athens," said Captain Brave, as he looked at the chart

before him. "That Is the capital

of Greece."

Half an hour or so later the chil

dren, peering ahead, could make

out a city far ahead and below them. Captain Brave saw It, too, before they did, and when Jack and Jane pointed toward it the

captain said, "That Is Athens."

When the plane finally reached

the -city and hovered over it the children thought they had never

seen such a pretty place. Naples, they thought, was a pretty city, built on a hill as it was. But the wonderful buildings of white marble and the hundreds and hundreds of other houses painted .in pale

shades of pink and blue and cover

ed with red tile, which the children now saw made them forget Naples

and all the other beautiful sights

they had seen on tho trip.

Ladydear had told the children

that Greece was one. of the oldest

countries in the world and so Jack

and Jane expected to see nothing

but great stone and marble build

ings bnilt ages and ages ago and

now paruy in rums, 'iney were

therefore very much surprised when

the cab wblch took them from the landing place to the center of the city, carried them through a business section such as any other big

city would have.

"Why," exclaimed Jack, "I

thought you said, we were to visit

a-very old country, but there are

stores and shops here jast as there

are in other big cities."

"This is the new part of the

city," replied Ladydear. "The old

part which was bnilt centuries

and centuries ago, we will see later."

As the children and their friends ant ihmn crK (Ke afMata Tni1r mwA

Jane noticed men and boys leading goats about just as the men did in Naples. Other men and boys carried large baskets of. fruit And most ot them were dressed as the way Slgnor Angelo had described them. The men wore real tight trousers and funny-looking short skirts. Their coats wore trimmed with bright braid. Their caps were little re, ones with a sort of streamer' hanging from them. And their shoos! Neither Jack nor Jane over had seen such odd shoes. Tho leather was red. The toes were long, and on the ends of them were fastened tassels almost as big as egga. "They look Just like folks dressed up for a masquerade," said Jack. The children noticed, too, that the poorer folks lived much as did the poor Italians in very cramped quarters. Most of these poor folks only had two or three rooms, the driver told Captain Brave. The peoplo who could afford to lived in flats and apartments. From one point in the ride through the city the children could see what looked like a great mound

almost a hlU of some kind of stono or marble. And, on Its top, they could see ruins of some sort When Jack asked what it was, Captain Brave said:

"That is the Acropolis, part of

the city built thousands of years ago."

"Is that where the gods and god

desses lived?" asked Jane.

"Well, hardly," said Ladydear. "Please tell us about the gods

and goddesses," pleaded Jack.

"Well, by the time we get to the

hotel and are settled it will be too

lato to go out today, so I'll tell you about them this afternoon," promised Ladydear.

On Treasure Island

Once upon a time eighteen boys

and eighteen girl3 went to the same school. Their school was

out for a week, so they decided to

have a trip up the river for a vacation. v Now Harry and Herachel had been out about twenty five miles or more and had discovered an Island while they were fishing in a motor boat On the west was a hill, high up from the water and to the East, South and to the North. We rode around the island and finally found

a place that had been cut out in the

rock by man or machine, so as to

run toats in. We went in and found the water six feet deep and

about twenty feet long. The boat struck solid 'rock and it was lucky that it did not break anything. I had a flash light and we found that there was solid rock lo ret out on. We climbed till we came to the top and found grass as green as on the land at home. Well, I said to Harry, "It's a cinch ita a nice place after all. "We roamed around and then we went back home. The next thing we did was to tell the other children about going on a trip. Now comes the time when we take the trip. Me and Harry takes two motor boats and put six-i teen girls and boys in each andj

then we raced to the Island. I

beat him to it and we quickly got

out and up the steps as quickly as possible. Now I said to the bunch, "We all know that there is thirty-six of us and that there is eighteen girls and eighteen boys. Now I am the leader of the bunch,,. Harry went by himself when we got here the first time and I went by myself. While I was looking around I found a cave, big enough to hold a hundred people. There Is a box of revolvers and shells and rifles and cowboy suits and boy scout suits girl camp fire suits and tools and a tool shop and a dining room and a bed room. They ere all under neath the ground, too. The only way to get to the place Is by a door beside a big tree. The door is in the ground and is made of stone, steps made to lead down twenty or thirty feet under the ground. Well, said Harry, "let's go and see it" ( To be Continued.) Herschel Gregg,.

Not Bumpy at AH Monday the boy that lives near my house said, "IiOt's go out on the golf grounds to slide. So we went out and when we got there it was about four o'clock. John and Tracy and Roland were out there. I went down the first hill and went

so fast that I could not see at all. Then I came up the hill and watched the others slide and tumble. Then the boy I came with went down another hill that had a terrible bump and he went so fast that he went in the creek and got wet. Then I went down and bounced a foot off my sled and I had to fall off to keep from going into the creek. Then we went down another hill, but first we asked a man if it had any bumps in it but he said no. So we went down and nearly bumped to death. The End. Mervin Loper, Joseph Moore School.
