Deciding where to make home is
quite ms important matter to the
little people OF the Green Meadows
and the Green Forest as IL Is to as
humans. and sometimes they spend
almost as much time about IL as we
do. Reddy Fox and Mrs Reddy were
In no special hurry They were OF
no mind to use an old house. OF
course not. As long as they were to
have brand new home all their own
they must have a brand new house
TO make II in. Such handsome
young couple starting out together
In an old house wouldn't do at all
So they must dig a new house.
and as there could be no digging
until Jack Frost should start back
for his home in the Far North and
20 soften the earth they had plenty
OF time in which 10 pick out just the
place 20 suit them
So Reddy showed Mrs. Reddy an
the pleasant and secret places OF the
Green Meadows and the Green For.
est. for no one knew them better
than he From place to place he led
her. places which he often had
thought he would like TO have a
home In. hut Mrs Reddy had some
fault 20 hnd with each This one
vas too open. and their house would
be too easily seen by any che who
CHANGED that way. That one was
too near Farmer Browns: II would
make her nervous every time she
heard Bowser the Hound bark An
other was too deep in the Green For.
est. II was too dark and gloomy
there. there must be sunshine for
the babies TO play In. A fourth she
was sure would be altogether too
damp. dampness wouldn't do at all
A 9th was very nice. but Il was too
near the home OF old Granny Fox.
Mrs. Reddy didn't believe in having
relative 80 near.
Every place he could think Of on
the Green Meadows and in the Green
Forest. and there were very many
nice places. Reddy took her 20, and
every time she shook her head and
pointed out some fault. Sometimes
Reddy thought she imagined these
faults, but he didn't say 80. No in
deed. he didn't say so. He was too
clever for that Besides. he wanted
Mrs. Reddy wholly pleased. You see
for the FIRST time IN his life Reddy
was thinking OF some one besides
himself He was learning what II
means TO be unselnsh Az last he
bad 20 tell her that he didn't know
OF another place TO look.
Have you forgotten the Old Pas
ture? ," asked Mrs. Reddy.
Then Reddy remembered what
Mrs. Reddy had saId when they nrst
met: how she had been quite sure
that she would want 20 live IN the
! Old Pasture because IL was there
that they had found each other and
that Reddy had fought his great bat.
tie for her.
II understand now what was the
matter with all the other places
thought Reddy. "She had made up
her mind that we would live In the
Old Pasture and I've Just wasted
time showing her these other
places"
But he didn't say this aloud, but
pretended that he had forgotten all
.h,,,tt tho ola pastaro and lad the
way there. No sooner were they
there than Mrs. Reddy took the lead
and Reddy meekiy followed. Every
nook and corner in the Old Pasture
they visited and when Mrs. Reddy
was qsite sure that there was no
more OF II to see she led the way TO
a little opening among the bushes
where on a gentle slope the sun lay
warm for a large part Of the day.
Near the upper part OF this opening
was a great rock and behind IL and

New York, Aug. SO.-In the cam

speeches of reasonable or in
cendiary character, a woman speak
er, Mrs. Bertha Fraser, was yester-
day sentenced in magistrates court
to pay a fine of $50 or go to Jail for
30 days for disorderly conduct. She
was held guilty of making disrespect-
full reference to the uniform of a
United States marine, the Judge de-
clared in sentencing her.
IF this kind of speech making is
continued the authorities must stop
1t and with an iron hand.
The only reason he did not impose
straight Jail sentence. he said, was
because the defendant was a woman
Mrs. Fraser's lawyer said the SEN
tence would be appealed.

BUEN0S AIRES
Is Trying to Combat Wide
spread Pro-Ally Senti-
ment in Republic
tBy Associated Press.)

Washington, Aug. S0.-Any hope
felt here that Argentina would sup
port the allied nations in their war
against Germany virtually has been
abandoned, as a result of the Ger
man governments success in salts
flying the demands Of the Buenos
Aires foreign Office in connection
with the sinking OF the little Argen-
tina sailing craft Toro.
Germany's agreement to pay
indemnities for ships sunk and
promise not to destroy other ships
under the Argentine flag caused
Secretary Lansing to point out yes
terday that the imperial government
had made a greater promise to the
United States and then had broken
her word.
Examination of the facts, indicate,
however, that Germany will not be
embarrassed by keeping this latest
promise because Argentina has no
mercantile marine engaged in trans
Atlantic trade. The whole contro-
versy has impressed some officials
here as hollow, and It's result is
viewed as a point scored for Ger
many. Its only effort will be to
insure the neutrality of the South
American country whose importance
IS exceeded oy none, unless II be
Brazil.
The outcome has created no great
surprise here. Since Brazil and a
few other South American nations
aligned themselves against the
methods of Germany, agents of the
Kaiser are known to have been I'M
ceasing in their activities in Buenos
Aires. Captain Won Papen, former
military attache here, whose with
drawal was requested because of his
unneutral acts, now is at the Argen-
tine capital where he is said to be
directing his country's propaganda.
Argentina's position may prove an
embarrassment to Brazil, her neigh
Dor on the north. Brazil is at war
although no declaration of the fact
has been made. Her feet is patroll-
ing the south Atlantic in co-opera-
ton with the American fleet and her
mercantile ships are being protected
in their transatlantic voyages in
the same way as are American ships.
Much interest is felt here In the
manner in which the people OF
Argentina will regard their govern
ment's attitude. There has develop

SHOWS and bad weather have made
transcontinental freight trafflc still
harder to move. Officials who have
proposal will add rs or so per cent to
the efficiency of American railway
systems and will do away with the
present congestion of freight in
northeastern ports.
The chief advantage claimed for
the arrangement suggested is that
export food, largely a western and
middle western product, will get q
shorter haul and that munitions ana
other manufactured products, turned
out largely in the east, will not be
their turn with raw products.
Five ports in the south will be
made the chief loading points. They
are Galveston, Port Arthur, New Or

Under the traffic director the ship
ping board will name three shipping
directors, one for transatlantic
trade. another for South American
trade and a third for the Pacific.
In all the important ports II is
planned to name voluntary terminal
committees to assist the trafflc direct
or in expediting the loading and sail
ing of vessels.
