Farmer Browns boy would never come
out. but at last he did. Blacky and
Sammy Jay at once began to scream and
make all the fuss they could. Farmer
Browns boy took the two pals of milk
into the house, then out he came and
started straight for the Green Forest.
He was so curious to know what it all
meant that he wouldn't wait another
minute.
Now. there was some one else with
great deal of curiosity. He had heard
the screaming of Blacky the Crow and
Sammy Jay and he had listened until he
couldn't stand it another minute He
just had to know what it was all about
So at the same time Farmer Browns
boy started for the Green Forest this
other listened started toward where
Blacky and Sammy were making such
racket. He walked very softly. so as not
to make a sound. 1t was Buster Bear.

were hiding near would see what would
happen. Blacky didn't have the least
doubt that Farmer Browns boy would
come. He had called him that way
many times before, sometimes when
sometimes just for a joke. You see,
Blacky had found out long time be-
fore that Farmer Browns boy is like a
great many other little people-he has
great deal of curiosity.
By and by the back door of Farmer
Farmer Browns boy. In each hand he
carried milk pail. Right away Blacky
began to scream at the top of his lungs.
Cav, cav, caw,' shouted Blacky.
Cav, cav, caw! And all the time he
flew about among the trees near the
edge of the Green Forest, as if so ex-
cited that he couldn't keep still. Farmer
Browns boy looked over there as if he
wondered what all the fuss was about,
as indeed he did, but he didn't start to
go over and see. No, sir, he started
straight for the barn.
BIacky didn't know what to make of
1t. You see, smart as he is and shrewd
about the meaning of duty. You see, he
never has to work, excepting to get
enough to eat. So when Farmer Browns
boy started for the barn instead of for
the Green Forest Blacky didn't know
what to make of it. He screamed hard
er and louder than ever, until his voice
grew SO hoarse he couldn't scream any
more, but Farmer Browns boy kept
right on to the barn.
I'D like to know what you're making
such fuss about Mr.. Crow, but first

ways, for an Englishman who wants
something very much will sometimes
be tempted to abandon his quest for
the sake of a clever compromise merely
because he likes to compromise.
But Mr.. Irishman is different, and he
is equally different whether he halls
from Dublin and wears green or from
Belfast and wears orange He will not
compromise unless he is made to, and
he would rather fight than not.
The nationalists of Ireland under one
name or another in the past century
have often resorted to violence. They
have been guilty of "moonlighting."
they have boycotted unpopular land
lords and farmers. they have done many
things that are not supposed to be done
under rule of law and order"
But there is no doubt that it was
this very violence that caused Mr.. Glad

the violence of the Land League of 1881
LED ultimately to the land purchase act
that has done so much for the irish
peasant: there is no doubt, at least IN
the Irish mind, that sometimes things
get so bad that violence is necessary
This belief is shared by the Ulster
1rishman as well, and he wlils nsht
against home rule as his neighbor Will

The fisherman is a blend of scotch

His politics is his religion. and his
religion is his politics. He has not
taken the name of covenanter from his
Scottish forhears for nothing. He

renounces all his selfish and material
interests. He may be wrong, but he

are the principal members of the pro-

them except Gen. Sir George Richard
son are members of parliament, either in
the commons or the lords.
There is another covenant, called the
British covenant, which supports the
same plan. but in language less de-
voted and less ominous. The British
covenant is signed by British unionists.
and several hundreds of thousands
have signed it. 1t is as follows:
Being earnestly convinced that the
claim of the government to carry the
home rule bill into law. without sub
hitting it to the Judgment of the ma
ton, is contrary to the spirit of our
constitution. we do hereby solemnly de-
clare that, if the bill is SO passed, we
shall hold ourselves justified in taking
Or supporting any action that may be
effective to prevent it being put into
operation. and more particularly to
prevent the armed forces of the crown
being used to deprive the people of
Ulster of their rights as citizens of the
United Kingdom"
The first name signed to this pledge
was that of Field Marshal Earl Rob
erts, the very highest man in the Brit
lsh army and the idol of the rank and
file as well as the hero of the officers.
Many other retired army officers signed
u, and among men of letters Rudyard
kipling was among the first. The lead
ing British covenanters are prominent
their names are most respectable, and
they coincide with the names of the
leaders of the unionist party.

enant is a pledge to resist home rule
