Zukley THE ORIGIN OF FRECKLES It happened that in Crete there was a lovely young girl named Ardania, the daughter of Aenetus, the King of Crete. She was so beautiful that her father, selfishly, would allow no suitors to approach her. However, he could not keep out the most ardent suitor of them all, for Jupiter, upon beholding the beautiful maiden immediately fell in love with her and visited and wooed her at night in the form of an owl. And so Ardania incurred the wrath of Juno. In jealous anger, Juno resolved to mar the girl’s beauty and thus end Jupiter’s love for her. Juno summoned her dwarf attendants, the Midgetini — now called brownies or gnomes in modern fairy tales — and gave a magic fluid into the hand of their leader, Minute, with instructions as to its use. That night under the leadership of Minute, the Midgetini scampered gayly down a moonbeam into the boudoir of Ardania. There, as they beheld her in lovely sleep, they began to repent their mission. In fact, they decided to cir¬ cumvent Juno’s plan. The leader was to tip the jar accidentally upside down, and as there was no seal on it, the fluid would pour onto the floor. This was done, hut as Diana’s Chariot was getting low in the sky and the moonbeam bridge was waning, the Midgetini had to make a hurried departure. As they gazed once more upon the lovely Ardania, with one accord, they all stooped a nd kissed her. Then as silently as they came, they flitted hack up the moonbeam. In the dim light of dawn, Juno looked down upon Ardania, prepared to see an ugly countenance, but she saw the same lovely face upon the pillow. How¬ ever, as the sun chariot rose upon its journey, Juno in great anger again looked down and saw to her astonishment and delight that the girl’s beauty was indeed marred, for lo! Ardania’s face was covered with little brown dots, souveniers of the kisses of the Midgetini. Jupiter upon beholding the girl, suspected the transformation as Juno’s doing, hut he said nothing. However, a few days later seeing the anguish of the girl, because all her friends had been frightened away by her strange markings, he decided to do something. Therefore, during the night, he sprinkled brown dew on all earth people who were abroad so that freckles, as they are now called, became quite common. That is why, when we behold a freckled face, we say, “Oh, the brownies have kissed you!” Charlotte Mix, 1A.

THE TRICK OF THE NYMPHS Several miles north of Waukegan on the shore of Lake Michigan there is a large group of pine trees known as “The Pines.” Many reasons have been given for this phenomenon as there are few pines in this region. The most plausible explanation seems to be that these trees were nymphs turned into trees because of the wrath of Jupiter. This region, where the Pines are now found, was a favorite spot of the gods, and even the nymphs often came here to play and bathe in the waters of the lake. Jupiter also visited this spot. One day as the nymphs were playing, they saw Jupiter descending from Mount Olympus. “Let us hide so that he will not see us,” said Dewblossom, one of the nymphs. It so happened that Jupiter had come here to go swimming, and the nymphs, at the suggestion of Dewblossom, filled his sandals with sand while he was in swimming. Now this was merely a harmless trick, but on this occasion Jupiter had just had a quarrel with Juno and was in a bad humor. When he discovered the trick, he shouted, “Those impudent nymphs were the ones that did this trick, and all who trifle with the shoes of the almighty Jupiter must die.” This threat so frightened the nymphs that one of them stepped out from her hiding place and came before Jupiter. “No,” he said, “At sunrise tomorrow I shall send a thunder bolt that shall destroy you.” With these words he flew away. The next morning when he awoke, on the shore of the lake, he saw the nymphs lamenting their sad fate. When he noticed their sorrow, he pitied them and decided to change them into trees instead of destroying them. Ever since then, there has been a grove of pine trees on the shore of Lake Michigan. David Dudey, 1A THE CAUSE OF THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY FLOOD Two great and powerful gods of nature were Toomuchwater, god of the Ohio River, and Progress, god of civilization. For many years Toomuchwater had been the one and only ruler of his territory. He had almighty power and always did as he wished; he paid only little attention to the advent and growth of Progress. Progress soon grew to be a great rival of Toomuchwater. He caused huge dams and levees to be constructed in order to curtail the power of Toomuchwater. Toomuchwater, finally realizing the power of Progress, decided to destroy him. He called on his cousin Rain to help him, and together they started a rav- raging torrent of destruction through the territory of Progress, inundating and completely destroying everything in its path. He succeeded in severely crippling Progress and all of his wondrous works, but he did not so severely harm the two children of Progress, Science and Engineering, who vowed to avenge the death of their father by constructing a better defence so that civiliza¬ tion could be rehabilitated.

Fond of good food and luxuries, he was overly fat from too much eating and was often irritable as he waddled about his court in his luxurious, richly colored robes. He took his empire for granted, just as his people took him for granted. Never doing anything unusual or wonderful, Fuji lived or rather existed contentedly in his colorless, monotonous mode of living . “Like father, like son,” could not he truly said of Fuji’s son, the youthful Prince Blo-bo. Blo-bo was more like his mother, a fiery queen who lived spontaneously and craved excitement. When but a lad, Blo-bo was renowned for his miraculous technique for blowing beautiful soap bubbles. These irridescent globules were gazed upon with awe by the ancient seers and mandarins. As he grew older, Blo-bo was able to see the future in his strange bubbles and his prophecies never failed to mate¬ rialize. This was the origin of the crystal balls used by fortune-tellers of today. As a youth, Blo-bo’s bubble-blowing escapades became less frequent, but more wonderful. The tales of Prince Blo-bo’s bubble feats reached a disdainful Indian princess. Princess Irin’s curiosity was aroused so she sent for the honor¬ able Blo-bo. Flattered, Blo-bo went to India and performed his feat for Irin. Amazed, Irin’s false pride melted and she made friends with the Chinese prince. Then he taught her to read the prophecies in his bubbles. Long did he stay at her palace, and they fell deeply in love; hut being of different races, they were forbidden to marry. He returned to his own country in despair, but each night he sent one of his crystal globes into the sky where it shone brightly as it crossed the heavens. In it, Irin was able to read his message of love. Years later when both descended into Elysium, Blo-bo continued to send a globe into the heavens each month where it gleamed and then faded away. Blo-bo still sends his pro¬ phetic spheres in the form of what we now know as the moon. As it crosses the sky in all its glory, the moon, in memory of Blo-bo and Irin, is the symbol of all lovers.
