Mr.. fOSSum got 10 the log firSt,
but pretty soon he saw Mr.. Coon
coming along with the gun over his
shoulder "Here Ii u.s." said Mr..
Coon, you take the gun, Mr.. Pos

Mr.. Postum had on the old hat
and he shouldered the gun. telling
Mr.. Coon to follow him.
Very carefully they picked their
way to where Old Man Crow lived,
and when they were near the house
Mr.. Possum stopped and listened
"He is asleep" he said. Il vas
sure he took nap at MONDAY. He
caws' even in his sleep. Now you
slip up to the pantry window at the
back and look in"
Mr.. Coon came back In minute
with wide open eyes; In fact. they
looked as il they would pop out II

most checking over the words.

head shows over this window sill,"
he said to Mr.. Coon, ut will look
like the top of Mr.. Mans coon cap,
and don't poke your nose up until
l tell you"
"All right" whispered Mr.. Coon,
taking his position.
Then Mr.. Postum looked in and
saw Old Man Crow asleep on the
sofa by the wall on the other side
of the room.
He was lying on his back, with
his wings folded over his chest and
breathing very deep.
Mr.. Postum rested the gun on
the window sill and let the top Of
his hat show over the top and then
he called, "Old Man Grow. Old Man
Grow; wake up. you are caught"
Old Man Crow opened one eye at
first and squinted, but when he
saw the top of the hat he opened
the other eye and took a good look.
Then he saw the gun and the top
Of the coon cap. and he knew that
Mr.. Man and very likely the hired
man, too. had caught him, and he
was as good as dead crow that
very minute.

Mr.. Coon was laughing 80 that
Mr.. POssum gave him q good sharp
kick on the leg TO be quiet. and

CAPTURED.

The following day the Sioux
again came in sight of the foot
hills. but as they still feared the
Crows they kept to the open plain
to avoid an ambush. Having ex-
hausted their supply of meat, they
began to look for game. For a
long time they searched in vain.
Then White Otter discovered sew
eral coyotes jumping about an ami
NAL at bay.
See. the wolves have caught
something for u.s." he told sun
Bird
The coyotes dragged their victim
to the ground. and then, as the lads
approached. the wolves fled across
the plain. When the Sioux came
closer a splendid blacktail buck
struggled helplessly to rise They
saw that it had been pierced by
several arrows. After killing it
the lads cut the arrows from it's
body and examined them with
much interest. They differed from
their own in both pattern and work
manship. and were similar to the
one which White otter had cut
from his shoulder.
They are Crow arrows" said
White Otter.
1T is bad" replied Sun Bird,
glancing uneasily across the plain
They knew that the buck lad
escaped from the foothills. and as
its wounds were fresh the lads
feared that their enemies were con-
cealed in the timber. They watch
ed the low wooded slopes a long
time, but saw nothing to confirm
their suspicious. However. they
determined to take no chances, and
Sun Bird kept guard while White
Otter proceeded to skin and quar-

Did you ever see a king bird?
There are lots of them around here.
ct the edge of town. You find them
usually sitting on wire fence
along some quiet country road. as
still as they can be. or in a low
fruit tree watching for flies or
gpats to gobble up. They are about
the size of a Robin, and just as
slim and graceful. only they are
very dark grey and have a narrow
strip of white across the end of
their tails.
Some farmers call them bee
martins" because they think the
king birds eat bees. but they are
mistaken. King birds very seldom
touch bees at all. and when they
do they only eat the drones which
have no stings and do not make
honey, anyhow. But they catch
hundreds of big blue flies that are
enemies of the bees. and they drive
away hawks and crows, besides.
So should think the farmers
would be glad to have the king
birds around. wouldn't you? And
the next time you are out in the
country see how many you can
find. won't la?

HiOAIGO COUNTY TOWN DECIDED
ON IN ORDER THAT TEACHERS
MAY GO HOME DAILY.

County Superintendent Of Schools J. j.
Galloway announces that the directors of
the Tri-County Teachers Institute-Cam-
eron. Hidaleo and Willacv counties-have
selected Mercedes, llidalgo county. as
the place of the fail session of the
teacher>.ihe dates 10 be September 4 Ia
s inclusive.
The institute for the past two years
has been held in Brownsville, and for til
reason it was determined it should be
carried TO Hidalso county this year; also
because every Valley towns hotel and
rooming facilities are already taxed to
beyond capacity, ard it would be difficult
to place two hundred or more teachers In
one place. Railroad schedules permit al
teachers attending the institute, going to
Mercedes in the morning and returning
home ut night, with the exception Of those
from Willacy county, who viii be taken
care Of. The railroad has agreed to ~pc-
cial rates during the institute.
The institution will be under the dircc-
ton of Cherries ). Meek, city supcrinterd-
cnt of education ut San Antonio. and Miss
Lola Belle Peek, Of the primary depart
ment of the Houston public schools.

rough country roads and therefore are
able to reach the battle lines, not ac-
cessible to the larger and heavier hos

The renewed activity on the western
front in the European war has en-
phasized the need of more efficient

increased the necessity of new motor

not in excess of $500 per annum, and
liz the annuities. so paid him after
reaching the age of retirement do not
equal the savings and deductions from
his salary, including the compound in
terest aforesaid, then the difference
shall be paid to his legal representa-
tives.
Prevents approximation.
1t is believed that this plan will re-
lieve the service from the immediate
effects of superannuation, and. will
cause, less expense to the government
to pay the annuities herein provided
for of those who have already reached
the age of retirement, than it will to
continue the payment of present
salaries to those whose efficiency has
been lessened by the weight of years,
and it will be a great benefit to many
who, by reason of their years, are not
capable of continuing in the service.
Senator Pomerene holds that the
amount which the employe is hereby
required to pay is not really an expense
to the employe, but is rather a com.
pulsory savings and an annuity for the
benefit of himself and his family.
