His "bill of fare" us- a ually consisted of crumbs that fell | d from lunch boxes of students. At s night he had such a good time. When all was quiet after a very noisy day, Jasper would scamper down the long _ halls and back again, squeaking with all his might. As Jasper grew older, he grew bolder, ch, so bold! One day he scuttled out of his hiding place in front of Dean and Ray, two Sophomore boys. One of them bent down swi/tly arid scooped Jasper up, in spite of his clawing and biting. Jasper was frightened. To settle his nerves, they tore up bits of newspaper and put them in an old oatmeal can. There they put little Jasper. They fed him scraps of bread, but he was so lonely and cramped in his new [home that he couldn't eat. They kept him there for two days, that is, until Ray decided that Jasper needed more room, so they put him into a large waatebasket. Jasper was happy. He had been in that basket before, and knew just how to get out. When Ray and Dean came back from Biology class, Jasper was gone i una saie again in nis old Hiding place, " and you can bet your Sunday shirt he ~ stayed safe! j HOME ECONOMICS AND FARM 3 GROUPS TO PRESENT PUAY J "Kindling the Hearth Fire" is to Jj be presented by the Home Economics 3 and Egricult.ural departments of the j Boone High School Saturday, Febni- 3 ' r>ry 16, 7:30, in the Demonstration j School auditorium.
