I After a week of hard 'study one of the most enjoyable; sports to me is ,to go swimming wlthisome of my. school mates. It is very, fascinating, as "well as useful to learn to :be a good swim mer. / ' When we reach : the ' baths every 'ono':tries .to get. s into the 'water first and then we have great fun swimming, diving, playing tagand running races. 1 It is very -easy to.s pend from two to four hours wlthout.noticlng it. The time passes so very quickly.' There are many ' other enjoyments, such -the slide, tho rings; and -shower,': and there is hardly a-mlnute during-the; bathing hours that, the slide Is notoccupled. .Oh,. what fun whcn v at last'eomes our turn. We, go down nny old way, some going head . first, others sitting' and still, others lying on their backs. I think going down head first is the best way because the water "splashes out from, you and you .don't -get all of It In your /face.' The, ring- and- showers also are: lots of fun. • A Saturday . enjoyed like this I am sure would be plcaßlng to anybody.

Ag«;,H V^nrn , l»urlng the week I study, on Sunday 1 «tay quiet, and on Saturday I have my pleasure. Is it any wonder that I look forward to Saturday? t, with my chum, fttart out early in the morn *ing toward Leona heights. We each brine a little lunch and a bag. These heights are very pretty, being little hills with valleys between that one can Jook down. upon. After reaching' the tops of these hills What Part of an Airship? we walk along the ridge, stopping now; and then to pick acorns, which we put ; in our, bags. As we go on we see rab bits, squirrels arid a great many birds. The rabbits- lay out regular cities. Going along "one. notices what, at first \ look like wagon tracke; which end in holes ;under rocks.' But these are the streets of the rabbits and the holes their houses. In one place the tracks formed what looked like, a baseball diamond, and, at each corner there was M a*- big spot. This peculiar freak was caused in the' following way: Raba bits are very fond of sun batfis. The tracks or lines along. which one. would imagine the base runner ran were made i by the rabbit changing his position, the spots or bases were the ; places where - he la.y down to bathe in tho sun, There was also a spot in the center of this diamond with no tracks leading to it, and one could fancy that was where the pitcher stood. About 4 o'clock, we start for home, and by the time we have reached there we have walked some seven miles. I like to do this because It gives me exercise and allows me to breathe tho freoair, which makes me healthy, and because I can see the wonders of nntnr«."

Age 12 Years Saturday Is the '..best-day of the week for me, as I. hunt. I 'get up at 4 a. m. in order to . get the' earliest shooting, but I have to wait a long time before It is time to ( begin. I hunt ducks, and never com© home without from four to six in my bag. •„ It took me several days to dig my blind, but it is large enough to hold two boys. ' My friend Harry and. l' went out last Saturday and took some lunch along. Boylike, I put^a can of sardines into my bag without an opener, and we were forced to shoot a hole in the can. We had quite a time picking, up what remained of the sardines. I have a nice gun now, double, and number 16, of which lam .very proud. • §''.',^For the last two', years I have been using a single barreled gun; and it was good, too.. Many, a fine hunt did I have with it. I used to ««rawl. 100 yards to get near to the ducks and then shoot, as'. l -had not, then learned to shoot on tho fly.

In this, wondrous land are dreamt my most beautiful dreams, and learned my most helpful and im pressive lessons.are made my best and strongest resolutions. Here, too, I look back upon my doing's of the week, here do I remember the many wounds and the sorrow I through my thoughtless ness have caused when a kind word or cheerful smile might have- prevented It all, and here do J. resolve that hence forth I shall be more considerate. 1 Suddenly" some noise from without awakens me and I am sternly reminded 'that after all Utopia is not my home, that I belong to a far- greater world, wherein I can do much good If I only will.

I will describe a few pleasures in the ', most attractive way I know..>;,<' Scene 1, act 1. A cold, frosty morn ing, snow two feet deep and little, soft, white, fleecy flakes tumbling through the air In a baruin scarum sort of way, as if they were hurrying to reach the earth. to give the children pleasure. You tumble out of -bed .as quickly as possible and clothe yourself In your warmest "garments to keep out the biting cold. Toil drag youV sled out of the cellar and come in contact with Mr. Jack Frost, who tries his ,best to keep you In the house. But he can't do it," and already the hill Is a mass of flying sleds, . on which are girls and boys with, the happiest faces and the reddest of cheeks and noses, to say nothing of. caps and mittens. You join the crowd at the top of the hill, give your sled a start, Jump across it, -He flat on y/mr stomach and go whizzing down the hill with several other boys. I am writing -about a boy, Juniors, but, mind, girls do It, too. Scene 1, act 2. A crowd of boys, you among them, hauling their sleds by ropes to a clean space in' an empty lot. They are conversing intently as if the greatest question of the country had to be'solved. After a while they begin to make layers of. snow and build high walls* When the fort is finished they throw over it buckets of cold water, which will freeze and make the struc ture strong and firm. After this, is done the boys commence making man j little balls of the snow, depositing them on one of the sleds. They make a great many snowballs, as . hard, firm and round as possible, bo that whoever they hit will be "hard hit." By this time the water; on the walls has become Ice and no amount of snowballs can i break it down. .' Scene 2. Another crowd of boys, ad vance toward the fort from the street, a shout rings on the frosty air and the grand fight begins.

Age 11 Years On Saturday I always like to play with my (Soils and sew .for them, I often have my little friends come with their dolls and wo always have a nice time. My, doll's name is Cecelia. She has blue eyes, light hair and black eyelashes. Sometimes on Saturday I like to go downtown or to the park or, some other place of amusement, but not often. During the week I have my school studies and on Monday and Thursday I take my music lesson, so Saturday la really the only day I have to play with my dolls. Sunday I al ways go to the park, cross the bay or go to the beach. !h! «««! .PP«"<» " • «"H' r»««<J pickaninny Irom the way,' IlU,..ndtb..h.xd..^edto1 l U,.. n dtb..h.xd..^edtoJ 1 Mick to pi*'" A»tr.e»» cJotUefc_On quer»de p*cty\ Thty jll •«""~^ (1 •«<»» •• we! worn bw if lJuJe £i|U lo , e i C n • udi. with the Exception of ihcee. |ouc ol whom «J>o»c the piciui t*su< MARY BURNS, th« olh«» 'our cousim on* »v «»• tUed «« « lutiM pcattnt. an other wai qjiinily 4rcwed M a irurfen liom Holland. ttill another iwotc the richly toobfoidcicd t# r What European Country? PLAY BASEBALL MERVYN MILI f S, Richmond. Tenth Street School. Sev- enth Grade. Age 13 Years After I have finished my work on Saturday I like to get out and pray baseball, for there Is no more inter esting game to me tharj our, national sport." Saturday is about the only time a boy can play ball, considering that the sun e"ets at 5 o'clock and that, one does not get out of school until after 3. Baseball is a good, clean, healthy game arid the boy who does not engage in it does not know what he is missing. It is an athletic game; It exercises the arms, i legs and brain,, and Is. very In , vlgorating. This Is the principal rea son why I like baseball. :--v^ \u25a0*..,. • Besides this, Is it not the .leading sport of America, and Is It not being introduced into England?

I arose with this query, "What shall I do today?" I made up my mind that i a hunting ex pedition would Just suit. t "But why not anything but a hunt ing expedition?" I asked' myself. "Well," I "this .is Just the day for such a thing. The forest Is close at hand and, besides, there Is an abundance of game. The weather, too, is fine and. the air buoyant."

I think that every child should have some pastime and. fun on Satur day, because the whole week they have nothing but lessons. The thing that used to Interest me most of all was the San Francisco Junior Call, but now It comes on Sunday. However, it is Just as good arid even better.

Sometimes we play. at par ties on Saturday \ evenings. Other times he has pupils play at our,, house. , I am 1 very fond of music anU. I play •on four instruments— mandolin, banjo, guitar and violin.

SATURDAY'S PLEASURE HENRIETTA nODGES, 1423 Versailles Avenue, Alameda. WU- Hon School, A Seventh Grade. Age 13 Years On Saturday afternoons after my music lesson Is over I like best to go to IJncoln park in the east end of Ala meda. T The city has given us a beauti ful park and outdoor gymnasium here. The rings are very healthful, because they develop our muscles. The swings, swinging bar, swinging ladders, giant strides, merry go round, slides, tennis courts, basket ball courts and baseball grounds afford recreation and amuse ment for crowds, of children. In the other end of the playground are swing- Ing cradles, and swings for little chil dren, \u25a0 i \ The grounds are large and well kept, and for people who like rowing and sailing there is beautiful Ban L«eandro bay to the east end of the park. With a crowd of girl friends one can find much pleasure In o.ur park, betfauae there Is everything beautiful to make us happy. The superintendent la very popular with all the children, and Instructs the boys in many sports. The matron Is very attentive to all the girls, and teaches them many games and . folk dances. I only wish that the many poor children ahut up In dingy tenement houses In the big cities and the sick children in the hospitals could Join us In a day at our beautiful Lincoln park.
