Missus White was oaver to our house last nite & she brot her littel boy with her, his naim is Waldemar & and he thinks he is smart. His Ma thinks he is smart, too. My darling Waldemar, she sed to Pa & Ma, has about him the silent air of one who is one day to becum grate in_the counsels of the nashun. That's good, sed Pa, the nashun needs sumbody. 1 am gitting old. My little son is a dreamer, sed Missus White. Sometimes I think he senses vishuns that are not for the or- dinary eye.

AUDUBON'S PICTURE | CONTEST CLOSES Many Children Competed in the | Campaign to Create Interest In Bird Study. | PRIZES TO BE AWARDED | More than 300 children competed in thebird picture contest conducted | by the Audubon society, with the aid | of the Jay Burns Baking company, in a campaign to create interest in the study and preservation of birds. The | contest closed Tuesday evening, after | 350,000 ‘colored bird pictures had been distributed, wrapped i as many loaves of bread. Twenty-eight prizes, furnished by the Audubon society, will be awarded the children who collected the most bird pictures at| the public library Friday morning at 10 o'clock. . A 6-year-old, Katherine Terrel, who lives one mile south of Bellevue, col- lected 188 bird pictures. One day when there was no bird in the bread wrapper little Katherine cried so bit- !erlz that her father had to walk one- half mile to the next neighbor to beg a bird picture for Nttle Katherine, Two other little fellows collabo- rated with James Gienger to win the | first prize so that they might all| three possess the field glasses. to study the birds. Missouri Boy Enters Contest, One litle boy in Missouri wrote Miss Joy Higgins, secretary of the Audubons, asking plaimivclf'. “Do you suppose those prizes will reach the town 1 live in?" | “I see I won't win a prize” re-! marked a little girl who came over to the public library, where Miss Anna Crary was receiving the bird pictures, “but may I have my pictures back? I want to keep the bird pictures.” This sentiment was general among the children, most of them sending postage for the return of their pic- tures. One child said a neighbor woman had helped him collect the pictures on his promise to return her one set of the fifty bird pictures. Elsie Mason proved herself a re- markably capable business woman, Each set of bird pictures was care- fully catalogued and written out in a neat manner, which pleased Dr. S. R. Towne, president of the Audu- bons, 4 List of Prize Winners.
