the Skagway public school was ex
hibited in assembly Monday morn
ing. As a iftimber of children have
a little prayer to sa,y before re
tiring. the following one was put on
the board to say when rising:
"Now I get me up to work
I pray the Lord I shall not shirk,
Jf I should die before I wake
I pray the Lord my work's all
right." * ! .
The Civic Creed of the Denver
school was suggested by Miss Keen
nn aa a Creed lor the Skagway
school. After aa interesting dis
cussion, the pupils accepted the
Creed by vote. The Creed Is as
follows: 1 ] j . j
I am a citizen of Skagway, of
Alaska, and of the U. S. It is my
right ai'd my duty to make an hon
est living aud to. be comfortable and
happy.
It is my privilege and my. duty to
help others to secure these bene
fits. I will work haaxl and play
fair.
1 will be kind "to all, especially
'o little children, to old people, to
the unfortunate, aud to animals. I
will help to make Skagway a clean,
beautiful and law-abiding city.
These are the best serrvioee I can
render o my city, my Btate and my
country.
The domestic science class made
i-au cakes from an original recipe
which tbev will call:
Netutral Pancakes
li/4 cup flour
1% cup milk
2 eggs (?)
1 tQagpoon salt
Butter for greasing
Put. flour and salt in bowl, add
ttle at a time. Add eggs,
aiid whites beaten very stfif and
added last. Put in very hot, but
tered iiiun. Brown, turn, let brown,
place in oven. S'ove should be very
hot..
On the north wall of the domestic
science kitchen hangs a case re
ceived by the class from the Cres
cent Manufacturing Company at
Seattle. The case itself ia inter
est inly labeled:
Cat O' Nino Tales Shop
Workers In Wood
The case contains ninety indiv
idual bottles of uniform size.
The case contains spices, whole
and ground; coffa, green, roasted,
whole, and grouad; pepper, whole,
ground, and differently cured; crys
talized and pulverized egg albumin;
poppy seed; dill seed; extracts like

A NATURE STORY
o: Lock at the boo'ful butterfly,"
cried Dolly to her twin Dicky, ago
lour years. "There he's gone Into
the Jeep wood," cried Dicky.
"I.et's chase him," proposed Dol
ly, the more courageous of the
twc. "Mama said a ilatg black
bear Jived in there," objected Dicky.
"I'm going," retortpd Dolly -who
started off. Soon Dicky caught up
with her and the ran off into the
forest, still chasing the) brilliant
buiterfly. ,
So intent were they did not rea
lize how far they had gone until
the butterfly soared up Into the treq
tops and out of sight
"Oh, Dolly," Dicky quavered,
"I.c's go homo. "Which, way is
home'.'" asked Dolly. "I don't know
and I'm so tired," wailed. Dicky. At
last worn out the childreu lay
down In the moss at the; foot of a
bin tre? and went to sleep. In the
middle of the night the children
weie awakened by a yoice calling
their iiames. In a minute their
father burst through the bushes
calling "Dolly! Dicky! Where are
you?" And what was hia relief to
hear a iittle yoice calling "Here
we are." That night when the
children got home Dicky said ac
cusingly. "Mama we were, all night
in the woods and we never saw a
bear at all." Then creeping into
bed 'io was soon, sound asl«ep.
