It was written as a four- minute speech during the fourth Lib- erty loan drive, and beiog the best of any sixth grade child in the Pleasure Hill school of Nerth Franklin, was given a certfficate from Washington and was spoken in the final contest at the town hall a week ogo. Sincerely Too Late. Tommy's letter that he had written to_Santa Claus did not reach him. ‘When Tommy found out he was dis- appointed ahd he acted cross all day. One day Tommy’s mother said: “Tommy, stop that fuss! You should nave written the letter earlier.” But Tommy paid no heed to hie mother’s words. Of course, it must have been too laté to write to Santa Claus after Christ- mas, because Christmas comes but once a year, and so does Santa Claus. Every day Tommy did not act as he should. He was always murmuring something againsy Santa. One day he feit nervous. His mother always reminded him to be good, but he did as he pleased. Several weel passed by and Tommy kept on. This was because he received no present for Christmas, as he was for- After a while he said nothing but it was “too late for my letter, too late, too, late!” I hope every Wide-Awake will have better luck than Tom did. STELLA GASKA, Age 10. Jewett City. A Story of the Red Cross. The Red Cross of America was started by Clara Barton. While on a visit to Switzerland she heard of the Red Cross.*» When she came back to the United States she asked the pres- ident to help her crganize a Red Cross society. Finally she succeeded in get- ting money and volunteers and started a small soclety. ver ‘since that day the Red Cross h eh growing very rapldly. During peace-as well as during war the Red Cross is working for the sick and_poor. When the Michigan forest fire, the Missiesippi flood, and the San Fhn- cisco earthquake and fire occurred the Red Cross was fully appreciated for its great relief work. Tn time of war the Red Cross is like & great mother. The nuMses walk be- tween falling shell and shrapnel as ave-hearted as any jof the soldiers, picking up the woundéd. They are placed on stretchers and carried Yo the hospital, which formerly was a church, school or barn. They are then gently laid on a soft white bed, where they are cared for and fed by the Red Cross nurses. Another great helper of the Red are the Red C(hoss dogs. A cloth th two large red crosses on the sides is closely wrapped around its body. A small Red Cross kit is tied around its neck. It hunts around for a wounded or disabled soldier, who opens the kit, dresses his wounds and sends some eign back with' the dog. The dog returns and leads the way to where the soldier lies. He s taken ind_carried away to the hospital. Where does the Red Cross get money to buy supplies? Of the people of America. When they enroll in the Red Cross society they pay a dollar and get a card which every patriotic boy and girl, man and woman in the United States showdd have. Help the Red Cross by knitting for it, and be a member of the eheiety. HARRY SCHATZ, Age 12. Yantic. Two Little Pigs. My father had two little pigs whose mother was sick and unable to afford them any nourishment. As they were nice plump little fellows, my father could not bear to see them perish of bear to be interfered with. But Shir- ley couldn't bear to see the flag used $0, even an old fajed flag. At last she ran upstairs and brought down her birthday handkerchief, the one her grandma had sent her, with pictures of Mother Goose children on it. “Here, Condace,” she said, “let me kave the flag and you may have this for a duster, instead. Teacher says we mustn't let our flag be used in any desecrating way.” Candice handed it to Shirley, but she did not take the handkerchief. Shirley carried the bit of Stars and Stripes to the kitchen and threw it on the fire. Then shé saluted as she had seen a soldier boy do when he passed a flag. Don’t you think this was a tright thousght of Shirley? BARBARA SCHELEFER, Age 13. Mansfield, —_— Birds in Winter. | Nothing is more delightful than a walk in a snow storm if you have a woodland near at hand. [or there arc many winter residents. among the Lirds, and everywhere, as you walk you will find dainty tracks in_the snow where tiny feet, not protected with warm_ stockings and rubber boots have been wading through the drifts. Many birds, as juncoes, tree ar- s and black-capped chickadees, take a keen delight in snow and cold. You see them in winter, fiitting about the bushes and clumps of dried grasses, chirping gayly. You can trace their web footprints winding in and out among brambles and weeds, stop- ping here and there beneath a weed stalk in search of seeds, or plunging through drifts up to their soft little bedies in snow. You shiver when you think of their unprotected feet, vet the winter birds em to enjoy this snow-wading as much as boys enjoy a brook in sum- mer. The hardiest. birds in the winter woods are the tree sparrows. When every other bird is glad to seek a shel- ter in secluded forest nooks, the tres sparrows choose the clearing at the border of the woodland, where storms are wildest and wind whistles and blows the snow about in flying eddies. They seem to revel in the storm, and hold high carnival. You will never be lonely on vour winter walks it you keep a sharp look- out for these bird'companions: and they will teach you many a lesson in cheerfulness and friendliness. Don't forget to carry a handful of crumbs to strew on the white snow tublecloth; and fiickers aad _titmice, nuthatches and downy woodpeekers will join with the others in rejoicing because you have passed their wa: ELIZABETH SHAW, Age 1 Norwich. hunger, so he brought them into the kitchen, put some/milk into a nureing bottle such as babies use, and offerea it to them. They took hold at once and swallowed the milk with great satisfaction one ‘after the other. Very soon they learned to drink their milk out of a small basin and would come for it thefnselves the moment they heard his voice. ‘When he stood at the kitchen door “Come, plggies” they would come rushing full gallop from the g:;; pen. They always came on the full gallop exactly abreast like a little team, and when they had had their miik returned to their ivother in the very same order. they enug- gled down beside her for a nap. Sometimes when they got hungry in the night they would come under my father’s bedroom window and squeal and squeal for §im to get up and feed them. But he, thinking that wguld only teach them a bad habit, and that pigs as well as children ought to practice self control, paid no atten- tion to them; so they had to go back to their mother grrmuni disconteated- ly, no doubt. - S I 2 W s ORIA amd Ghildren ( After a while they beeame old enough to drink swill from the trough like the other pigs.

Yesterday we went out to get_some bait and we caught a large rabbit. But before we went to use It as bait our dogs had eaten it up. ‘We went out in the with the dogs and dug up a squirrel’s nest. The dog chased the squirrel up a tree, but it finally ran away. After we came home we decided to £0 to the Dark Swainps to see if there was any good muskrat trapping. 1 did not go hecause I had to g0 away. My brothers went.
