"NIee Old Lady viii Hear Our Voices"

have you come to hear us for2 Do
you like to have your ears hurt? Or
are you a little deaf today, and think
perhaps we can cure you by our Shrek
ing? You may have got some water
in your ears the last time those Rain
Drops had such a quarrel. Tell me,
what have you come fOrT
"Mr. Nightingale sang a little open
ing song and then he began to talk to
the Black Bird.
"Mr. Black Bird he said. You're
Il handsome fellow, and you're very
smart. I've heard IA secret about your
Family. Many have done what you
will do. You must try. That's all.
And again Mr.. Nightingale sang n
song.
"What do you mean, Mr.. Nightin-
gale? Your Song is lovely, but your
tai; is vo"y. very queer And Mr..
Black Bird shook his head sadly.
"Well, / mean you to come to my
Nest. It's too big for me. It's fitted
out perfectly-all the latest improve
ments-freSh water to drink supplied
nv my Water Man, Mr.. Showers, and
new Worms each day my Children
bring TO my Nest IN plenty of time for
breakfast-and our rooms are both
shady and sunny. In fact, it's a very
superior Home. But in the House near
by lives n dear old Lady and l want
her To be given a treat. She has gone
AWAY on a visit and when she comes
back | want you to be singing duets
with me-
what" shouted the Black Bird.
I'm TO sing with you?
Most certainly. Many Black Birds
have copied our voices so that you
wovI,n't be able to tell us apart If you
couldn't see us. The nice old Lady
viii hear our voices and think that
;hera are two of me, When she sees
tl.at one is you. she'll think you're a
smart Bird-that's what she'll think.
Besides, / want a Companion and l
Ike you
"NTo1. 1 never heard so many rea-
sons in all my llfe,' said the Black
Bird. But I'll go just as soon as l
get my suitcase packed. There are
several little delicacies from the Bay
I'd like TO bring along. And Mr..
Black Bird stopped to put some red
berries and other goodies in his straw
bag. Then of they went and Mr.. Black
Bird really did learn to sing Just Ike
Mr.. Nightingale"

DADDY'S EVENING
UEAIR TALEp
NIGHTINeALE's FRIEND.
b. mary GRAHAM BONNER

said Daddy, "a quite true Story"
"Do tell 1t to us, Daddy" said Nancy.
"What's 1t about2" asked Nick.
"Just a moment" Daddy went on,
"and I'll tell you. Mr.. Nightingale had |
built too large Nest. 1t was very |
fine and beautiful and comfortable, but |
still Mr.. Nightingale wished for some
thing more coy. He thought his
new Home he had made was more
like Hotel where lot Of Birds might
spend their time-and he didn't want
a lot of Birds-not unless he gave a
Party. He just wanted Companion
ship.
"After while he thought Of WIS.,
itor he would like to have all the time,
and off he started on his travels. His
Nest was on Tree which hung over
a Window of a House. In the House
lived a dear old Lady whom the Night
ingale always called Grandma White
Cap because she wore lovely, soft
White Caps which the Nightingale
thought very beautiful. He really
cared quite a good deal how People
looked, but he seemed to have grown
tired of not having any real Compan-
ion.
GAS he went along, flying as fast as
he could, he kept thinking to himself
how very lonely he had been of late.
The more he thought of his loneliness
the more he thought of Companion,
and flew faster and faster all the time.
cat last he reached the spot he had
chosen for resting. 1t was in Black
Birds Bay. Not another Bird could
be seen-just hundreds and hundreds
of Black Birds. There We're many low
Bushes and Shrubs and Berry Trees in
this bay, and in the marshy water were
quantities of Pond Lilies.
"Mr. Nightingale waited for someone
to speak to him. He didn't want tC

"Soon very fine bird-Black as
Black could be and very shiny just as

COLCHESTER LAND CASE
 TRIAL IS BEGUN. Ownership of Over ITO Acres is In- voIVed in Superior Court Case.

After a failure to reach an amica- ble settlement following a conference of about two hours, the case of Seda Wray against Solomon Simon and the Jewish Agricultural and Aid society of Colchester for the division of property in Colchester was started before Judge Milton A. Shumway in the superior court in New London Tuesday after noon. Ownership of about ITO acres Of land is involved.
 The plaintiff claims that she and the defendant Simon are owners in common of a tract of land in Co1chest- CT situated near the New London road on which the Jewish Agricultural and Industrial Aid society holds a mortgage of SS50. Mrs. Wray wants a portion of the property or a sale of the property and division of the proceeds.
 The defendant, Simon. denies that the rIaintiff owns any of the property. He claims that he was owner of the entire tract and that several years ago he sold half of the land to his broth CT, Jacob Simon, who gave him a note in payment. Simon claims that in 1910 his brother died leaving a widiw 1nd two children who were heirs at jaw and entitled to the property. His hrother, however, never paid the note. The defendant claims that his broth CTS widow and children fraudulently transferred the property to the plain tiff in the case and that they are in collision to gain possession of the property.
 The plaintiff denies collusion in the cross bill and claims that Jacob Simon paid the note and that Mrs. Wray came in possession of the land rightfully.
 After the reading of the complaints and answers this morning, counsel asked for time to consult with a, view to a settlement which was granted. The attorneys were in conference un- til shortly before 1 o'clock when the trial of the case was started, the con- ference having failed to arrive at a settlement.
