It was a mighty | ied, and with the Mayor at the/ ber and as many grownups and| kiddies as could pile on behind) him, it was one roya! ice chariot, I assure you. Up the steep hill they climbed to the entrance to the University campus, that was at Sixth and Seneca, and down they slid clear to the water's edge, with thrill enough to last @ lifetime. It was tho wonder of ft, the un. usual feeling of snow-enoug!-to- coast-on, and the certainty that it couldn't last long, which made {t| 80 jolly. They came puffing and panting im to dinner one day, all six girls talking at once, and the Mayor. | father's voice joining in every lit. Pl te while, and the Mayor's delicate oy wife sat at the head of the table and smiled at them, and listened to the accounts of this one's “spilt” and that one’s narrow es cape, and one of the girls said, ree “I can't wait until tonight! 1 de clare, the moon on the snow fs the prettiest thing I ever saw!

What about the crowd who are to meet here? I think it will be very sweet and lovely to have prayer meeting right here tn our house.” “Your mother ts right " said the Mayor. chil. ward for frolic.” And that | what they did. Had the meeting, then the coasting, then they all came back and had apples out of the big cellar and nuts and popeorn, and roaring fires in two fireplaces. And when the story was fin ished David said, “Zewle!

He said that a telling sentence must end with a capital letter and begin with ® period. Also that you should dot your “x's” and cross your “c's.” And when Nancy asked him what he wanted to cross a “ec” for, he an Mounced that he thought it would be | good fun to go in boat and look at| the water, In geography he said that a river was @ stream of land flowing thru the water, and in history he said into the schoolroom and trying to] armory that Noah discovered America.
