![]() ![]() A distinguished writer for children has given herself to a question which has long been close to her heart-the need for friendship between races.

When school started, they went by bus, and little Joe-who was a good deal like Big Joe, his father-bravely solved several problems about getting on with their schoolmates and making friends. ![]() And as soon as they were there, Little Joe, India Rose and Pearlie May began to learn to take care of the animals on their farm.
