In stead of the horse, the reindeer does the work In these cold countries. It furnishes man with food, rich milk and hides. The horns are used for fuel and the skin is rriade Into tents and clothing. Strings are made of its tendons and thread out of its skin. Household things are made from the horns, such as coat racks, hat racks, stools, umbrella hangers, cane handles, and dagger handles. The deer is about four and onehalf feet in height. It is brown in the summer and grayish In the winker time. Its hoofs are black. The reindeer Is very timid, swiftfooted and very graceful. The deer travel in herds and change places often in order to get food. Their food is mainly buds, leaves, plants and evergreens. We have a number of deer In our jronntry. They are kept In the parkR. The meat of the deer is called venison. It Is generally a dark color, but very sweet, and expensive. MILDRED GREEN, 7th Grade, St. Andrew's School.

His mother told him not to go in the pantry, because there was a treat for supper In there. But when she was down street he went right in and saw a pan with some white stuff in it. He wanted to see what it tasted like. So he put in one foot but could not get it out again. So he put in' his second foot, and his third, and fourth and every foot. But every one stuck fast. He began to cry and his mother came home. Wnen she saw him she said, "O dear, now you have spoiled our honey!" She pulled and pulled and after a while got him loose. Wnen the rest of the family came home, they laughed and laughed and called him Daddy Long-Legs. For sure enough his legs were very long after all of the pulling." And we still call him' Daddy Long-Legs. David H. Wrebb, 1A Vaile school, Miss 'Mooney's room. At Oyster Found Containing 1 Large and 21 Small Pearls You can never tell when you are going to be lucky. Some people think that the 13th of the month is unlucky, but Stirling Marsh, a resi dent of Jackson, Mich., thinks that the thirteenth is surely a lucky day for him. While he was eating them, he found in one oyster one large pearl, and continuing his hunt found in the same oyster 21 smaller pears. Although the oysters had been cooked, the pearls were undamaged. Mr. Marsh will probably enjoy eating oysters very much from now on. Desert Gives Mars Red Color The reddish color of Mars Is supposed to be due to reat stretches of desert on that planet. By Briggs

The fare is five cents, and we pay it and think very little about it. Suppose you were in Moscow, Russia, and your mother wanted you to go downtown for her and it was raining and you got on the street car. When the conductor came around to take up fares and you asked him how much, it cost, wouldn't you almost fall out of your seat when he told you that the cost was 500,000 soviet rubles? Just think of it! You would ta,ke out your purtre and count out the money, and after you had paid him you would figure out that you had paid him two cents in American money. Don't you wonder what you could buy with just one ruble? I suppose that a stick of candy would cost at least 100,000 rubles perhaps more. -It would cost you 7,500,000 rubles to ride in adrosky, which is a fourwheeled vehicle drawn by one or two horses. That Is about 30 cents in our money. Taxicabs cost so much that tho government has almost prohibited their use. It costs millions oi rubles to ride in one.
