when the Elks lodge was generally
known as a social organization of the
atrical folk, and then traced its history
through the Johnstown flood, the San

asters, in which The Elks rendered relief,
until the order became known to have a
side of sterner merit than mere so
ciability.

Facts Read to Aid
Essay Contestants
Facts about Indianapolis were read to
pupils In tho four upper grades of the
seventy-three grade schools of Indian
apolis today to aid them when, on
Thursday, all of the pupils write es
says on “Why Indianapolis Is a Great
City to Live and Grow In.”
The twelve leading facts about Indian
apolis and its many natural advantages
have been prepared in pamphlet form by
little smile down at the twins, that made them feel most uncomfortable.
They did hope the bear would hurry, so they could continue their Journey.
But the Magical Mushroom told them not to worry.
In a minute the bear called out “Woof! One shoe gone’! Stuck in the
honeyl Oh, well, I’ve got three left!” And he went on eating. But the
twins, anxiously watching, thought he was a little bigger. At least the
blossom was swaying. In another minute the bear said, “Woof!" again.
“Two shoes gone, but Ive got two left!” and he went on eating.
This time he was much bigger, and the blossom trembled and sagged
with his weight, but he held on. Then came, “Woof!" again. “Three shoes
gone, but I’ve one left!” Still he kept on eating. But he was so big now the
whole vine shook and he had to hold on with all four feet, and his tongue
was too big, almost, to reach the honey.
Then he said, “Woof!" again. "All four shoes gone, but I’ve finished!"
Then he let go. But he lost his balance coming down and got a dreadful
bump on his head as he landed. The last the twins saw of him he was
running, howling into the woods. —Copyright, 1920, N. E. A.
