MY PONY We have a farm at Headingly and my three brothers and I all have ponies to ride. My brother was given a little brown pony. Her name is Beulah. I rode this pony and liked her best of all. On my birthday, January 21st, Henry gave her to me for a present. We have so much fun together. Beulah is having a colt in the summer time. When we ride and jump fences Beulah stops and stands still and just watches the other horses go over. One day when we were riding Beulah bucked. I fell off. She quickly came back to me. She put her nose down and said she was sorry. When I go into her stall she tries to get mv hat in her mouth. Every Sunday I bring her sugar and carrots. I love Beulah. DOROTHY RICHARDSON, fGrade ID OUR PET DOG One day when I was playing out on the street I saw a little dog following me. I took the dog to my house. My mother was washing down in the basement that day, so I took the dog clown to the base- gient. My mother thought it -was a stray og. Mother came upstairs and 'phoned the police. The policeman put an advertise- ment in the paper. One day a lady came and said she thought the dog was hers, but she found it was not hers. No one else came to claim the dog so we called her our own. One night there was a big crash. We all ran to the kitchen to see what had happened. My dog was up on the table licking the butter. We had not cleared away the dishes. She broke practically all the dishes. So we put her down in the basement to sleep. The next day we gave her a nice breakfast, befause we had forgiven her.

The Kindergarten children are a busy and happy group. While painting and handicraft are enjoyed by all, they derive the greatest pleasure from the music circles. The children gave an Eastern con- cert which was enjoyed as much by them, as by their parents and friends. B. Cox .Tilli THE DEER One year we Went to Farlane for our holidays. The deer here were very tame. One morning just after the sun had risen, and before I had my breakfast,I went out- side. It was a very pleasant day indeed. You could see the lake from the cottage. I was turning to go back in when I heard tramp, tramp, it came from the trees. I looked up and there was a deer and a fawn coming towards me. I broke a branch off a tree, it had a lot of tender green leaves on it. I held it out and the tiny deer nibbled the leaves from the branch. Suddenly they turned and disappeared among the trees. During the summer we often saw the deer, sometimes they came quite close, and always seemed to like us. JOYCE DULMAGE, fGrade IIJ A BEAR AT CLEAR LAKE We were at Clear Lake last summer and had such a good time. We heard that a bear was wandering around and we all hoped that he would not come near our cottage. One evening men came to our cottage to get Daddy. They said that the bear had been caught. I had to stay in bed, but I did Want to go along too. The next morning Daddy took me down to the spot where the bear had been found. Trees had been cut down and piled, without the branches being cut off, and the bear had gone through the brush and got tangled so that he could not get free. He was caught by the men and didn't give us any more trouble, but I wish I could have seen him alive in the brush. RONALD DIAMOND, fGrade III

He is very nice and kind. But he goes away so often and doesn't come back for three or four days. One day Skipper got a cut in his paw and had to have three stitches in it. Skipper is a clever dog. When we go swimming sometimes he jumps in with us and swims too. Skipper is a great friend of mine. He stays with me most of the time when I am at home, and even comes to meet me at the bus sometimes. HONOR BONNYCAS-TLB, qGrade HD MY DREAM One night I turned out the light and when I went to sleep I had the queerest dream. I dreamt that I visited the princess in Fairyland. In my dream I had on the same kind of clothes that the princess had. I had on a blue hat with sparkles all over it alnd a long blue dress. We also had blue s oes. We went to a dance and we wanted 'to be back by one o'clock so we set up a clock in the dance hall. All the boys wanted to know what the clock was for. I told nearly all of them and then the princess took over. The clock was just going to strike one when I woke up. My, that dream seemed so very real. BEVERLEY AIRD, fGrade IVJ A RADIO SPEECH LESSON Monday mornings we have a radio speech lesson instead of our usual read- ing lesson. I will tell you about one of our lessons. Miss Eldred put our rhymes on the blackboard for our vocal exercises. They were Betty Botts and Peter Piper. Miss Eldred explained we were drilling onthe sounds P and UB . They have the same position on our lips but UP is voiceless and we use our voice for HB . We can easily understand the difference between a voiceless and a voiced sound, because by placing our fingers on our larynx We
