Bushy Foreets to Eat.

Such a hurry! Such excitement as
there was after that! .
Mother Beaver ran around hunt
Ing just the right place to start the
home building; Father Beaver ex-
arntned the creek to see IL it was
deep enough" or II he would have to
begin building a dam right away, and
Bushy Beaver took little Brother
Beaver and hunted around for some
lunch. .s,s
They didn't go very far-dear me,
no! BushyiskneWs better than. that!
He might run into danger by him
self, but when chad the care Of Lit
tie Brother Beaver he was as careful
rs careful could be- you may be sure.
He wandered only a little way down
the banks Of the creek, keeping his
sharp eyes open for food on the way.
He hnd just spied a clump Of small
seedlings growing close by the water
and looking very appetizing, when a
gr1lff voice close by shouted, Who
goes there?"
Bushy jumped as though he was
shot, and Little Brother squealed and
snuggled close UP to. Bushy.
Who goes there?" repeated the
voice sternly.

One Suffragists
idea OF The Flag

This is what. DR.. Anna. Howard
Shaw, who is chairman of the wom-
ans committee OF the National Coun-
Gil Of Defense, says about the Stars
and Stripes:
s%seIhis is the American flag. It is
ia bit of bunting, and why is 1t that,
when 1T is surrounded by the flags
of all other nations, your eyes and
mine turn first toward 1t and there Is
o warmth in our hearts such as we
do not feel when we gaze IN any 9TH
er flag? 1t is not because Of h beau,
ty Of its colors, for the flags of France
and England,N which hang on either
mot because of its artistic beauty, for
other flags are as artistic. 1t is be-
cause o and I see in that piece OF
bunting what we see in no other. 1t,
is not visible to the human eye, but it
is to the aspiring sou. We see In ev-
cry stripe Of the red blood which has
been shed through the centuries by
their lives for the idea of democracy;
we see in every stripe of white the
purity Of the democratic ideal toward
which all the world is tending; and in
every star in its field of blue we see
the hope of mankind that some day
the democracy which that bit of bunt-
ing symboliZes shall permeate the
lives of men and nations; and we love
it because 1t enfolds u ideals of hu-
man freedom and Justice"

Big Benefit For
Red Cross Tonight

Yarn for some $500 kuitted arti-
cles is going to be purchased with
funds resulting from the big festival
to be staged tonight at Lincoln park
for the benefit OF the Red Cross. Los
cal knitters must furnish this many
mufflers, sweaters, wristlets andfsocks,
according to word received recently
from headquarters, in response to ap-
pealsr from Major Murphy, who is in
France on a commission for the Red
Cross, and there. is need OF these
things before cold weather comes. Ac-
cordingly wholesale numbers of local
knttters are being recruited, but II
they are to accomplish worth while
efforts they must AVE plenty or ma
terial to work with.
From all Indications there is going
toy be plenty OF material, because ev-
cry person who got an invitation to
the big sdoings tonight had to bid fare
we'll to q perfectly good dollar, and
each OF them in turn was privileged to
ask five others, which meant five
more of the perfectly good. dollars.
Out Of this endless chain" it is hoped
to raise the several hundred dollars
necessary to supply the yarn.
There is to be a big corn and we
ME" roast, huge camp fires to be
built for that purpose, and in addition
to these eats" which sound pretty
good, there is to be a dance in the
club house, and numerous stunts. In
short, there's going to be something

CAUTIOUS CRITICISM
Editorial in the Leadville Courier
rs journal.

The Chicago Evening Post, the
weather not agreeing with its spirits
perhaps, is moved to make the fol-
lowing rather sou criticism OF the
kaiser in the role of orator-of-the-
occasion:
The kaiser is weakening. His
third year Of war" statement Is
quite the poorest in style and
composition that he has yet put
out.
It contains no new phrase.
There rs not a line in 1t compar-
able to- you shall return victor
ious before the leaves turn" Nor
Is there anything in It as biting
as the contemplate little army"
Of the British.
He had a splendid opportunity
for more Of his ''quick victory
/, and Contemplate army" cpl
tempt to coin one We feel sure
that his admirers in this country
will be deeply disappointed at this
lack of punch. .s.5 ss.
&. Our own mayor OF, either Of our
senators, not to speak of a. CON
siderable section OF our erepresen-
tatives in congress, have been
handing out much peppier stuff
right along. The kaiser ought
" SoI jill 11dul dIlu Oily MaSOu .
to send him over a model for his
next speech. They can hardly at
ford to have him fan out in this
weak way.
This is as unreasonable as it is un.
just. The kaiser as a speaker is in q.
good keller as he was before the wa
or at the wars beginning. He VIA.
the paramount ass of C~hristendon
twenty years ago. So absurd wer,
his speeches that the Germans, al
though some Of them shared vii
helms major obsession, that he servet
as the generalissimo OF God the Faith
er, the Vicar Of Christ and the visibl
lpresentment of the Holy Ghost, feare,
the effect Of his soutbursts. There wa
an effort to persuade him not to rid
the oratorical high-hoss as often, o
at such a ga1lop as his inclination
bade him. Critics abroad said frank
ly. that he was afflicted with diseas
of the mind. They went 80 far as t
