Ice cream and chicken!! Boys all say "10 days for me next year!" "Perry" catches the biggest fish, a 2XA poua't'.bass. Howard "Hosbrook was. sure a good camper. "Pete" is some guy. Byron Bond went back to bed one morning. and in the river afterwards (with some help!) ""Perry" makes some "great pop corn balls." j

Fred Brown, 11 years old, his sister Betty, five years old, his older brother Robert and his parents and two very small but exceedingly lively and playful monkeys arrived in Richmond Saturday, August 19 straight from South America for a year's stay with his grand-parents, Mr. and Mrs. John W. Hansel, 100 South Sixteenth street. The Brown
family has been living for nearly two years a year end nine months to bo exact in Rio de Janeiro, the largest city in South America and a splendid seaport, being situated on the west side of one of the finest bays in the world.
Jeraldine, Beverly ana iiansei
Harter are cousins of the Brown children and it is at their home, 56 South Seventeenth street Ohere the monkeys are staying, much to Binkie's displeasure. Binkie is a fine large Airdale dog, the pet of the Harter children and he never misses a chance to show the monkeys how displeased he Is that they have come. Tho monkeys, named Soccadura and Molacci (excuse the spelling, Fred knew the sound but had no idea how tho names which . are Portuguese or Spanish were spelled and the Junior reporter has only trioi to fnllnw the sounds as he
spoke it. as nearly as possible) are sniai!, being less than 12 inches high, not measuring their tails which are longer than their bodies. They have small faces, black noses and mouths and very blight
black eyes. Monkeys Imitate Master Their red tongues pop out tooimitating Fred when he sticks out his tongue at them. Their tails are as Important as their feet and enable them to climb trees and bed steads (when they get in the house!) and do stunts, limning and tumbling on the clothes line. The monkeys were purchased in Para on the Amazon River before the Browns sailed for North America.
Molacci which means "street boy" in English is the more tame of the two and loves to play. True to their nature the monkeys chatter continually when people are
around Ship Model of Jaguar Bone Fred also showed the reporter from the Junior Palladium who interviewed him last week, a handsome little moSel of a sailing vessel. It is a three masted ship, fully rigged with many sails, which are carefully made from polished jaguar bone. Adjustments of the sails may be made by delicato wires. Fred saw a ship like it a real ship this time when they had
lost sight of the coastline of South America enroute to the United States. Another Interesting model of wood this lime is that of a native fishing boat, which resembles a raft. Will Attend School Here
Betty and her cousin Beverley have dolls, rag dolls with red skins made by the tribes of red skinned people who live near the "South American jungles. The larger doll has real finger nails made out of quills and ear rings and a necklace of bright colored beads for the true South American must have jewelry. Betty and Fred and Robert will attend school in Richmond during the coming winter.
