Foul Friend, Pony, Guard Dog!
“The St. Bernard’s Visitors.”
Rex is what you might call a noble dog. He is very good natured, he looks after the weak, . . Rex allows the fowls to feed out of his dish, and they are not a bit afraid of him.
Then this big dog will let our baby ride on his back, you have to hold her on, you know, or she would tumble off, and that would never do.
Rex can be cross if he likes, and when tramps come into our garden, he barks and growls, so that they walk off in very quick time.

Happy Father’s Day!
Dear Father.
“Since you are so kind as to think of me, dear father,” answered Beauty, “I should like to have you bring me a rose, for we have none in our garden.”
It was not that Beauty cared so much for a rose, but she did not want it to look as if she were trying to be better than her sisters, who would have said she refused only to be praised.

Happy Flag Day!
He marched around the orchard with his gun over his shoulder, carrying his flag.
“When I grow up,” he said, “I mean to be a great general like I read about in my books. Then I can tell people what to do, and they will have to mind me. Then Mamma can’t say ‘Jimmie don’t do this’ and ‘Jimmie don’t do that.’ And then I can have all the corn I want.”
