STORIES WRITTEN BY WIDE- AWAKES The Cigarette That Saved a Soldier, The soldier had just - received a package of cigarettes from home, and real American cigarettes aré a1 lux- ury in the trenches. He and his com- rades were sampling them, and one of the boys was telling a story. It.was #. rather interesting story, and the end was very sudden and astonishing. In fact, its ending took the soldier com- pletely ' by surprise—his mouth fell open, and plunk! down dropped the precious cigarette Into the mud at the bottom of the tremch. It sputtered a lttle, and went out. The soldier got up disgustedly and sauntered back to his dugout for an- other cigarette. He i in- glde. There was a crash, a scream, and the sound of an exploding hand- grenade. When it was over the sol- fier came out-to.see- what was th matter. -~ His, were gonet all but one, . that orie had one eye Dlna avh e, Shtaeh g . 3 ‘When the soldier was in Paris ‘on leave a short while afterwards he met 2 friend. “T suppose that your comrades, John, and Bill, and the rest, came in with you, didn’t they?". asked the friend. The soldler explained that they had been killed, . “And you, what a miracle that you were nét kilied, too!” said the friend. “It was a cigarette saved me,” re- vlied the soldier. ELOTSE C. SMITH, Age 14. Norwich. The Coming Storm. ‘There were numerous signs of a coming storm. The clonds, dark, heavy, and- threafening, were piled in the western sky in great billows: one overlapping the other like the svaves of the surging. -an sea, beneath them. Ominous mutferinzs of thunder were heard in the distance, and sudden fiasbes of lightning pierced the dark- ening skv like shining daggers of fire The atmosphere grew heavy and hot and all things seemed to hold their breath as if to wait the onrush ‘of this turious storm. MARY GORDON, Age 12. Springfield, Mass. A thful Dog. One morning ‘after we had started out for school a man who seemed like a tramp came to our house. He ask~ ed for something o eat. My mother gaid she didn't have anything to give m. X The man seeing the table from the window made an attempt to. come into the house and would have been, master had it not been for our faithful dog.

The tramp seeing how large he was d a hasty good-morning, and left t once without another word. ADELARD DUQUETTE, Age 13. Danielson. ¥ Birds. Many boys and girls who have birds have never thought very much about their ways of life. - They do not real- ize what a strange, unnatural, silent thing spring would be if -the birds should all suddenly disappear. The world would be sad and lonely without these beautiful winged voices. But something even more dreadful would happen if they should leave us. Peonle would be in danger of starving. Can you tell the reason? FRIEDA THOMAS, Age 10. An Auto Ride. * 1 was playing in my back yard when “Come on, take a ride to Norwich.’ It was just quarter past three.

Plainfield, Jack Maley’s Nice Brown Toast: One day in autumn Jack Maley broke his leg, which caused him to be in the house all winter, and as he had noth- ing to do he would watch his mother make his toast and coffee. After a little practice he could make it as goog as_his mother. ‘When he got well he started a res- taurant and all his fellcw friends went in to get some of his nice brown toast and coffee, and other things he learned how to make from watchigg his moth- er_that winter. If more of the boys would stay at home ang watch their “mothers they would learn more than at the street corner. : MAY F. EVANS, Age 12. Plainfield. 2 The Robin. No bird holds so prominent a place in the minds of the American people as the robin. It is a bird that is the companion of man. One spring a pair of robins built their nest on the limb of a balsam standing near a much used walk near my home. In gathering in the ma- teria] for the nest the greatest care was taken by the robins to work in those hours when there was least chance of being observed. The great- er part was done in the early morn- ing when few people were astir. They made théir nest of slender bal- sam twigs. $ntertwined with them were fragments of weed stalks and grass stems. “The “yellowsup was made of clay with grass rkeq in. ‘Then last of all came the smooth car- pet of fine groee. PATRICIA' REILLY, Age 10. Norwich.. Why | Never Raised Rabbi When we_cgme to the country to live IT had a pair of rabbits given to me. T intended to raise little ones fo sell. The rabbits were kept in a corner of the yard that was fenced in by wire. One day when I went out fo feed them 1 discovered that my mother rab- bit was gone. I hunted every part of the yard but did not find her hearing later that she had ‘been stolen. The loss of.my mother rabbit was great to me, but I decided to get an- other one; so one day I visited a chicken peddler, who had rabbits to sell. I told him I would trade him a hen for a rabbit which hé agreed to do. When he brought me the rabbit 1 was well pleased for it 'looked like my other one, *1 had the rabbits four months and was expectingato have little ones, but was disappointed, the reason you will soon find out. One day my father coming in to the yard, said he, was going to fing out why T couldn't raise rabbits; and on picking up the one I got from the sddier discovered it was a male rab- it; this is why I never raised rabbits. ALVIN LACHAPELLE, Age 13. Canterbury. A Good Lesson. Last summer wkile visiting at my grandfather’s farm my cousin Alice, a girl about my as» and myself had a great deal of fun: but on one occasion on which I am about to write we were really frightened. Down the country road about a mile from my grandfather's farm stood an old hut once a beautiful farm house, which everyone said was haunted. One day my cousir Alice and myselt walked down that way and curlosity led us, before we knew it, up to the ‘weather-beaten steps at the front of the house. We thought_we would like to look into the house 5o ventured to open the front door. As we opened it the top hinge, which was eaten with rust, gave way and the door almost fell. Right at the door there were steps leading upstairs. I started to zo up and had almost reached the top when' my foot broke throush the wood and down I went, giving my ankle a terri- ble wrench. “ Alice came to my aid and We man- ‘aged to free my foot. ‘We both resolved that.this was a good lesson for curious girls, GERTRUDE PLATT, Age 12.

Now that you are offering thrift stamps as prizes I thought I would try and get one as I have some al- ready. I am_going to tell you a way boys and gifls can help win the war and “can the Kaiser.” Men and women are conserving food, why shouldn’t boys and. girls try to think out a way? One way in which I have done my bit is making the following for pan- cakes. In this way flour is saved: Stale Bread Pan Cakes: One pint milk, four slices stale bread, one egs, one tablespoon sugar, one-half tea- spoon_salt, flour enough to batter. Soak bread in milk, then beat in egg. Add sugar, salt and flour. Fry as or- dinary pancakes. You will find that this recipe is sav- ing as well as wholesome, for it saves the bread otherwise thrown away. INEZ ORN, Age 13. Norwlfl‘:. How 1 am Going to Help' Uncle Sam. |.

We have some recipes for making cookies, crackers, etc, without any wheat, or that require but little wheat. ® I have made some oaimeal cookies and I intend to try some more of the wheat saving recipes. I am going to have a vegetable gar- den this summer. ,I think I shall have beans, carrots, cabbages, tomatoes, squashes, potatoes, radishes, beets and lettuce. I had a vegetable garden last year. Instead of buying candy I have saveq my money. I hope all the Wide-Awakes can do different things to help the United States, ALFREDA K. WALKER, Age 13. Eagleville. A Soldiers Experience. Dear Uncle Jed: My brother, who is a soldier in the regular army, had an interesting experience at a southern camp. He was over at the range club about twelve miles away, when one Sunday night in February he was Yent back to camp to attend the divisional school. They took their- blanket rolls and rode in on the wagon with a six-mule team. It was 7 o'clock at night and so0 dark and foggy they could not see the lead mules. The first mile or so was awful. It was over a newly made ‘voad with a rude bridge every now and then. It was dreadfully muddy and a iman with & lantern walked ahead to try to find the road knee-deep.in mud. First one wheel would go into a ditch and then another and progress was slow. But when they reached the bet- ‘ter road those- mules sure did travel Tt began to rain about nine o'clock and the soldiers drew a tarpaulin over them. But they were very glad when they reached camp about half past eleven. I am doing all I can to help the sol- diers by belonging to the Junior Home Economics Classes and earning money to buy thrift stamps, CHARLOTTE FELLOWS, Age 11. Norwich Town. The Dog Beat the Cars. Dear Uncle Jed: I went to the city Saturday. ‘While T was on the road to Yantic I saw my dog with me. 1 told him to go home, but he would not. It seemed as if he wanted to go with me. ‘When T came to Yantic'T did not see the dog. Just then the car came and T got on and rode to Norwich. ‘When I reached the city I saw my dog on the square and I took him to my friend Rae and left him there. ‘When I wanted to g0 home I took my dog and waited for the car. 'When the car came 1 took the dog on the car, but the conductor said that I would have to pay seven cents for him: 1 didn't have -but seven cents, and that was for myself, so T cofidn’t take him on the car. T had to take some money, from my friend Rae and rode home with my dog in‘an automobile. After that I watched out that my dog should not follow me. SARAH SCHATZ, Age 10. - Yantic. My First Trip to Boston. Dear Uncle Jed: My first trip to Boston was a long ride of about 75 miles- on the train. Arriving at Back Bay station, my mother and T got off the train. After walking 2 short dis- tance, we took the trolley to the big Boston opera house to huy tickets to hear Mdme. Galli Cusci, the greatest soprano singer in the world. From the opera house we took the trolley and went 1o the public gardab. On the way we passed the beautiful public library, and cpposite that was Trinity church, where Phillips Brooks preached. Reaching the public garden, we gat off. the car and walked through the garden, where we saw many differcnt kinds of trees and 2 pretty pond wi&d @ bridge over it. » We passed on to the Common and high on a hill we saw a monument erected for the sailors and soldiers who have died for liberty. We could also see the capitol with its golden Jome. Going out of the Commons, we passed several little houses where American and British soldiers and sail- ofs could enlist in our great war. There was also a Liberty lean cottage where women helped raise money- for our government. 2 I saw the subway cars that run under the streetd, and the elevated trains that run above the streets. We then went to the South station, where there are 28 tracks. Our train went out on track 17 and soon we had left the great city. . ELIZABETH STETSON, Age 10. Central Village. She Raised Chickens. Dear Uncle Jed: Last spring mother gave me some hens’ eggs. told me to find a sitting hen. So I ‘went to the coop and found one. Then my She o33 {out 1ho T got a box.and put some hay in it. She hatehed sevens little chicks. Af- ter the thicks were hatched I fed them and I took care of-them. One night it rained and killed one. The other six lived and I fed them until they got big. Then my mother sold them and gave me the money. BERTHA WRIGHT, Age 1. ‘Voluntown. % - My-Red Squirrel.

I hap somé nuts in the hou: some out to him; but as soon as he heard the window open he scampered away. After some time he came back and discovered the nuts, He picked up every one of them and buried them ail in_different places. What I noticed was that when he picked one up he would nibble it to see if it was good; then he buried it for future use. Next morning he hopped up on my window sill about the same time to see if I had any more. I threw him out some, and like the previous day, he buried them one by one. Now he takes them ffom my hand, he has grown so tame. KATHERINE FARRELL, Age 12. Norwich. ned to have , 80 I thréw A Broken Dam. Dear Uncle Jed: T enjoy reading the letters written by the Wide Awakes. Have often thought I would like to write one myself. "We have just had a week's vacation &t our school. One day I had a long ride with my papa, and I saw where a dam that had been’ broken and the water had run through the back of the mill and moved some of the machinery around the room that weighed five tons; and there were 13 inches of dirt and stones on the floor. I was disappointed because I cotild not go into the mill where they make army blankets for the soldiers. FRANCES SWEET, Age 8. Southbridge. My Garden. Dear Uncle Jed: Last summer my father gaye me a piece of land for a garden. So every spare moment I was home I worked on it and got it dug at last and ready to plant. 1 thought beans were easy*to take care of, so I planted mostly beans. My father cut me some poles and set them and I planted the beans. They came up and grew fast and had pods 10 and 12 inches long. They are called spake beans. My papa planted a lot of pole beans but they did not grow good. I raised a8 many from my few as paps did from all his. I hoed my beans every day. L This year papa says 1 can have a bigger garden, so I can plant more beans and some potatoes. 1 think ev- erybody ought to raise more potatoes this vear for the soldiers. .~ THOMAS CHENEY, Age §.

We. went by Elliott station, leaving home about half past nine in the forenoon. Grandma bought me some cookies @nd candy at the Elliott store. ‘When we got to Brooklyn we sipp- ped to see a lady and she gave me some flowers and then went to the cemetery to my grandpa's and six cousins’ graves. We put flowers on the graves. It was a sad sight. Then wé started for home, coming up by my Aunt Alice’s and stopped to see her and my cousins. ‘We started from there for home about four o'clock and got home quar- ter past six, having had a very good time. But I was very tired and glad torget home to see mamma, my brother and baby sister. I hope to go again some day. . CLARISY CHENEY, Age 6. Abington.

PREGIDENT SENDS GREETINGS TO NEW JERSEY PEMOCRATS Calls Upon Them t5 Commit Them- selves to Disinterested Service For Humanity. Newark, N. J, March 20.—New Jer- sey democratic leaders assembfed hero tonight for a reorganization banquet were greeted by a message from Pres- ident Wilson as national head of the party, calling upon them to rise to the test of a new time when old pariy slogans have lost their signifi- cance and to commit themselves to disinterested service g humanity. In a letter presented by Secretary Tdmulty, the president said the peces- sity for his staying “on the job” made it impossible for him to be present. but it was clear that in the present posture of affairs in New Jérsey he could not overlook his responsibility to point out what he believed to bo the duty of the democrats of tho state in a great, hour of crisis. He re- viewed briefly the record of the party while he served as governor, declaring that in every act of legislation “we cut a clear pathway of public service™ and zave the people a government they could feel was their own, unhampered by special privilege. Grave Cri in Life. “A time of grave erisis has come in the life of the democratic party Jersey,” the president wrote, “a time when its friends and supporters must face the facts of the situation if they would serve the cause of free govern- ment in New Jersey.

A war of ‘words over a conversation they had in the corridor of the federal building Telative to the case was stopped by the court. Hajek in his direct examination tes- tified he had- been sent to the Tage- Dblatt office by the government to in- quire into the citizenship of officers and employes. He said he was re- ferred by 'Werner to his attorney and after ‘an argument, the witness said, ‘Werner threatened to break his bones and throw him out of a window. On eross examination by William A.

The witness said in answer to questions that prior to entering the government service he was in the in- surance and claim agent business and that a company of which he was a pert had failed to pay for advertising that appeared in the Tageblatt. His eéxplanation was that the bill was not paid because the Tageblatt failed to furnish a copy of the advertising as required by the company before bills were paid. In the direct examination of gov- ernment witnesses many objections made by counsel for the defense were overruled by the court. Only one ob- Jjection was ‘sustained, the court re- fusing to permit Frank L. Carbarine, an agent of the 'department of justice, to say whether the alleged treasonable articles seized from the Tageblatt of- fice had any influence on enemy all ens.
