Children, Color Up This Picture.

Copyright. 1914. by the Mcclure News
paper Syndtcate.)
Long time ago, when the spry little
chipmunk darted across the camp
ground in the yellow sunlight of a
summer morning, the old men would
call to the little Indian boys not to
shoot their arrows at it.
''Ho! he is our friend" an old man
would say, and when the boys asked
why the chipmunk was their friend,
the old man would tell this story:
It was in the days when man began
to spread out over the earth and make
himself the ruler of all the birds and
animals and insects. Whenever man
wanted bird or an animal to eat or
a worm to catch a fish, he just went
and took it without asking.
So the birds, the insects and the
small animals called council to see
what they could do to stop man from
taking their lives. It was a carrier
pigeon that took word to all that the
council was to be held, and when she
got back from her long travels, the
carrier pigeon settled down in a patch
of wild oats and began to eat. She
was so hungry that all she would say
to those who asked her if all of mans
enemies were coming was:
"You will have to get extra seats,
and put the acknowledged centipede
at the door to count them as they go
into the council housed"
And sure enough when the grub
worm, who was chief of the council,
took his seat at the east end of the
council house and looked over all who
had come, he rubbed his hands in good
humor at the sight of SO many Of mans
enemies.
Nov, it is time for you to speak
and tell what you think about man,
said the grubworm. And first the frog
got up and spoke.
Look at me, brothers" he said (and
he spoke in a low, sad voice., Il am
ugly and crippled, and all over my
back you can see sores. can no
longer run fast, but have to hop-hop
along; / am no longer beautiful, and

PULLING TO THE RECRUIT
In Undergoing Test He Cou'o see
Letters on Signs, but Couldn't
Pronounce Them.

An officer who was in charge or re-
cruiting duty tells the story or a
wouId-be recruit who was undergoing
examination as to his physical fitness
for the army. In applying the eye
test the officer told the recruit to look
at the signs bearing the various let
tiers of the alphabet without order.
The recruit examined the signs care
fully.
Can you see those letters" asked
the officer.
yes, sir" said the recruit.
Then read them" commanded the
officer. The recruit was silent. Three
times the recruit was asked II ne
could see the lines and each time re-
piled he could, but stood In nervous
silence when asked to read them.
Finally the exasperated officer de-
manded: eff you can see them, why
don't you read them?"
IT would, sir" answered the perspir4
ing recruit, "but l don't know how to
pronounce that word"
