May 17 Dear Friends Isnt It a
pretty race All the girls Just clapped
their hands when they saw that Mr
leak was ahead again this morning
and Minnie actually Jumped on the
table and mashed my new sliver thlm
blo as Hat as a pancake aud shouted
Hurrah for Howard Just as loud
as eer she could and then blushed
llko a peony for the dear child
wouldnt hae said such a rudo thing
for am thins If she hadnt been so
much excited I dont belle e Mr
leak would have cured a Lent If he
had been there and seen how happy
she was People are not all alike you
know and while tho rest of us take
things very coolly now Minnie gets
so txilted the dont know what to do
whenever we get aheud I hope the
other side will soon catch up so as to
make It lntucsliug and I du hope that
none of our fl lends will ecr offer to
write an > thing that Is not sweet and
proper uen for tho little children to
read for It they do I shall surely cut
It out before the lettur goes tu the
paper We want to win very badl >
mid I thluk we will but we must do
so In the manner befitting ladles and
gentlemen or not at all anl I knu >
Mr Peak well enough to say that If
ho could speak for himself he would
sanction all I say In his behalf Oh
my but Isnt the Pie Piter Just too
nlco for anything and what with all
his pretty ernes and compliments I
am n bit vain I do hopo that I may
seo him some day together with many
other dear friends who aro now un-
known to me savo by their kind cf
forta In keeping up the Interest In the
contest and helping us so generously
Then there Is Douglass Dearie of
Marshall who wrote suth a sweet love
letter this unornlng that I have been
tMnklDc about It all day but I am
afraid If I promised to be his best
girl right now that the other boys
would Btop writing to me nnd I should

pon discovered In Pee county and
