Little Stories ance; and a host of like subjects. won the prize book this week. Harold arks of the Blue side won honorable by Little Folk (Prize Story.) By Mary B. Goldenstein, Aged 12, Glenville, Neb. Red Side. I am going to tell of an adventure I had when I was about 6 years old. I used to like to play with fire. One day I found an old candle that my | brother had dropped. I picked it up and got a match and took it upstairs. I lit the candle and set it on the floor. 1 heard someone talking outdoors, so I raised the window and looked out. The candle was near the window, and as I turned around my dress caught afire. I hit it against the cur- tain and the curtain caught afire. I was very frightened, and I screamed, but, as my parents were used to my yelling around the house, they paid no attention, I shutthe door and ran downstairs. I was afraid that I would be severely punished, so I ran into my mother's bedroom, and shut the door. Fearing that my mother would come in and see me, I crawled under the bedclothes. My mother in the sitting room thought she smelt fire. She went up- stairs and saw smoke coming from under the door. She ran inside and saw two curtains burning, and a cot- ton blanket, and the floor was begin- ning to burn. She smothered the flames and brought the burnt things downstairs. Then she came into the bedroom. The sight of my frightened face made her drop the little switch she had intended to whip me with. That experience cured me of playing with fire, One can still see the marks of the fire on the window casing and floor. (Honorable Mention.) Fell Off Pony. By Harold Towle, Aged 9 Years, Weeping Water, Neb. Red Side. Once upon a time I was riding my pon{. I went down after the cows. As [ was coming back I went under a tree, gust as I was coming under it a reat big limb hit me in the face. It nocked me off my pony. I took the bridle off my pony and went to the house, My nose was bleeding and so was the rest of my face. My mamma washed my face and put some listerine on my face. It hurt and I jumped “E and down on the floor. It was a wee! Y | before my face was healed up. I have a scar on my face yet. One time be- fore that, too, my papa had a runaway with' the pony and another horse. They busted the double-trees and put one of the wheels out of shape. He tried to get out, but he tripped and fell on the wheel. He had to walk with a stick for about three or four days. (Honorable Mention.) Tom and Policeman. By Flora Mark, Aged 9 Years, 220 North Second Street, Council Bluffs, Ia. Blue Side. Once there was a boy named Tom. This boy was generally good, but once in a wilile he was disobedient. One day his mother said: “Tom, I am going down town and I want you to stay home. Tom didn’t like the idea of staying home, so he thought he would go for a walk and be home before his/ mother. He took his hat and ran down the hill. He had wandered for about an hour when he got tired and thought he would go home. He thought he was taking the right road home, but wandered farther, He started to cry, but ran on. Pretty soon he saw a policeman coming toward him. The policeman asked him why he was crying. “I—I— I st my way home,” replied Tom. hat is your name?" Tom,” answered the boy. “Tom who?" questioned the police- man, “Tom Moore,” was the reply. “Well,” said the policeman, “I will | take you hon{c, but you must never run away again.” “I won't any more,” Tom answered. When Tom got home that night ins mother asked why her little son dis- obeyed her and Tom, very much ashamed of his conduct, mother that he would never run away again, Little Ruth’s Revenge. By Dora Ossian, Stanton, Iowa. La.st summer while I was with my cousin a couple .of days, her niece came to visit also. My cousin was 12 and I was 14, and her little niece was 5. One afternoon my aunt and uncle went to town, leaving us three at home alone. They went about 2 o'clock and said that they would be home around 6 o’clock. We tried to amuse ourselves as best we could. We cracked nuts and made candy. Popped {:OF corn and made some popcorn alls which were not fit to eat. make up for the popcorn balls. Then we told Ruth that we would play should be it. She consented, and we hid. Then hollered “ready.” She couldn't find us, so then she said she wasn't going to play. Then we went in to eat our candy, which was now rock hard. The candy was good and, of course, very sweet. Then we told Ruth to go and get us three lilies apiece. As she went, we thought it would be great fun to run and hide again. We got in a closet and slammed the door shut. There we were, now, locked in for our own smartness, We heard Ruth coming into the house. We called to her and asked her, in the sweetest tone, if she wouldn’t please open the door. It was getting so hot we could hard- ly breathe. ¢ thought we would have to break open the door, when Ruth said, “If I open the door, will you?"promue not to hide again from me Of course, we were only too glad to do that. Then she opened the closet door for us, and you never saw two gladder girls, Hallowe’en, By Jeannette Marie Oliphant, Aged 10 Years, 402 South Garfield Avenue Hastings, Neb. Blue Side. I suppose all the Busy Bees are planning for Hallowe'en night. I hope most of the Busy Bees wifi celebrate Hallowe'en in fun and frolic, instead of mischief. Hastings is going to let us have a good time. We are going to have our fun uptown. The street west of the Brach theater is going to be sprinkled with cornmeal for a big dance. We are going to have a large orchestra. The children will be dressed in masks and in costumes. I think this Hallowe’en will be appre- ciated by the people of this town. I know of one little girl who is going to be dressed up as a witch. She is going to wear a black peaked hat and a long black gown with round circles or moons with black cats. She is going to ride on a broomstick. I think this will be very cunning, don’t you, Busy Bees? I haven't decided how I am going to be dressed. I hope we will all have a good time.

This is the first fime I have writ- ten to The Sunday Bee. My birthday was on the 27th of October. I was 13 years old. 1 am going to write a story about “The Christmas Tree.” Once upon a time there lived a family in a little house in the country. There were two girls and two boys in the family. Their names were John, Nellie, May and Paul. May and Paul have brown hair and blue eyes. John and Nellie have black hair and brown eyes. One Christmas they had a Christmas tree with all sorts of pretty things on it. Nellie got a little tea set, a doll, a little table and two little chairs, May got a doll, and a little carpet cleaner. iOh“ got a new suit an story bool and a rocking horse. The girls had a tea party ?or their dolls and the boys faycd with their playthings. Nellie’s doll has curly hair and a brown dress. May's doll has a long baby dress on and curls. Ipoem I made up will put it in the My First Trip Alone. By Evelyn Gaylord, A%ed 14 Years, Fontenelle, Neb. ed Side. One summer, when I was 9 years old, I took my first trip alone. For my birthday that year I got a new parasol from mother. T left home June 7, 1916, to go to grand- mother’s. She lived in Hubbard, Ia. . Paul got a box of tools ; I had so many things to pack and so many things to think about that I forgot my parasol. Vhen I got to my grandmothcr’s 1 told her about forgetting my parasol. The next day she went up into the attic and brought down an old faded parasol, which she used when she was a girl. She gave me the parasol to use. This parasol was very beau- Jtiful. T thought very much of the parasol, although mine was very pretty. When I went home grand- mother gave me the old parasol to keep. Auto Trip to Lincoln. By Edythe Olsen, Aged 11 Years, Weeping Water, Neb. Red Side. One day about a year ago a-man from Lincoln came in an auto. He wanted to take us to Lincoln the next Friday. He said, “he would be here about 9 o'clock, but he didn’t come till about 11 o'clock. Mama, papa and my sister and I were the only ones that went. We started | there just exacxl¥ at 11 o'clock and got up there at 12 o'clock. My old- est sister went to the university and she was going to come home with us. The first place we went was for her. Then we came back and got our dinner. We started home about 4 o'clock and got to Weeping Water at 5 o'clock. I had a good time all day and wish I could go again. This is a true story. have won honorable mention twice, but I wish I could win a prizes. ! Life as a Penny. By Margaret Towle, Aged 10 Years, Weeping Water, Neb. Red Side. 1 suppose there was more to me but I don’t remember anything until I heard a lot of voices. I was in a little dirty chubby fist. It was a little girl, she was very poor. I could tell by her clothes. She went into a store and gave me to a man for a stick of candy. Then I was thrown in among other pennies and was just ready to tell them my history though. It wasn't very large when I was taken out and given to a very rich little girl who looked very unlike mi other mis- tress did. She was® all bundled up. Their Own Page She took me home and put me in her bank with lots of pennies, quarters, half dollars and dollars. I stayed here two days and a night. One night she came and got me and nine other pennies and went down town. In the middle of the street she lost me and five other pennies, but she did not know it and a little beggar girl came and picked me up. She was a kind little girl and bought a loaf of bread for her sick mother. The other pennies were sleeping, [ but T woke them up when I was with them. Some of them recognized me and began to talk. But I was taken out again and handed to a young lady who gave me to her sister. Onc { day the little girl went and got me jand went down town. Some one hit I her as they were walking along the crowded streets and she lost me. She was in great distress, but it was all of no use. [ was lost. She told a little boy. He is looking for me now, but I am hid. ! Inspirations. By Glee Gardn Aged 14 Years, Benson, Neb. Blue Side. When | finst started to write storics it came by me in the form of an in- spiration. . Where [ got it, found it or came by it T do not know. But it makes no difference, for ever since ‘then I have written stories and had pretty fair success. I suppose all of your Busy Bees have had the same experience as 1. Many things have come up during school life which ygave others great inspirations, but which did not even give me a thrill. Queer, isn't it? Once in 2 while when T hear someone speak very well or play beautiful music [ think 1 have an inspiration and for the next one or two weeks I ponder and talk and dream over it, but at the end of that time I grow tired and fish around for something new to put or center my thoughts on. A little girl once said to me: “Glee, why don't you be a famous writer?” After that 1 felt very proud and my thinkers would often wan- der back to the incident, but I have begun to think contrary to being fa- mous since I have grown older in years. A missionary once gave me an inspiration when she talked of the need of money and Christian people over in the heathen lands. But soon my instinct told me I was not yet fit for missionary work and 1 tongea to dwell upon more common, ordinary things of life. Turtles of Florida. By. Luella Gregerson, Aged 8 Years, Box 137, Elba, Neb. This is the first time I have written to the Busy Bees' page. We love to read the stories on the Busy Bees' page. I have three sisters and two brothers. We all go to school but baby. She is 3 years old. I will tell you a story about turtles. A year ago last summer we all went to Florida and lived in the big pine woods one mile from Indian river, which is a big bayou on the east coast of Florida. There are many turtles in Florida, big and small, but they are not snapping turtles. We children would stand on their backs and they would go very slow; but when they got out in the sand then they could not walk, but would sink in the sand. Once mamma saw one and she was afraid of it. It was not like the others. This is a true story. Trip to Western Nebraska. By Nola Kerns. Phillips, Neb. Blue Side. This is the fourth time I have written to you. I am going to tell of our trip to western Nebraska. In September papa, mamma, and I, start- ed for Ingham, a little station in the western part of the state. I saw many beautiful sights on the way. When we got there our friends were there to meet us. We had a very good time while we were there. Onec day we took our dinner and made a camp. We stayed all day and went home in the evening. We stayed out there nearly a whole week and then returned home. We surely had a good time. As my story is getting long I will have to close. s = morning at 10:15 o'clock at the Hotel Fontentlle.
