Danny Meadow Mouse Likes
the Snow.

Sing a song Of snowfakes filling all the air;
Light as downy feathers drifting everywhere.
The little folks of the Green Meadows
and the Green Forests are just like
human folks when 1t comes to the mat
ter of snow. Yes. sir, they are just like
us human folks-some like the snow
and some don't. For some 1t means
harder work to get living. to find
enough to eat, so they don't like 1t. !
don't blame them. do you? But Danny
Meadow Mouse isn't one of these. No.
indeed! You see. Danny likes the snow.
The only time he doesn't like 1t is
when there is only little. not enough
for him to tunnel through. Then he
has either to stay at home or move
about with the greatest watchfulness
easily by watchful eyes.
But when the snow is deer. enough
for Danny to tunnel through he is
happy. So Is Nanny. So are all their
relatives You see. while that snow
means a lot of work, hard work. ii also
means comparative safety. 1t means
that Danny and Nanny may go calling
whenever they feel like it. be 1t day or
night, and have little to fear from
hungry enemies. That is. they may do
this after they have made their little
tunnels. And. strange to say. 1t often
means more food. You see. when the
snow is deep enough to reach the seed
bearing tops of certain weeds all Danny
and Nanny have to do is to climb one
of the dry weed stalks. make a hole
out at the surface. and then scamper
from one top to another gathering the
seeds from each. He explained all this
one day to Peter Rabbit when they
happened to meet. and Peter had made
the remark that so much snow mus,
Not Mt all" exclaimed Danny. in his
squeaky little voice. That remark
shows how little you know about US
Peter. The fact is. we have one Of the
easiest times in the whole year. In the
first place. we always have some sup
plies laid up, so we don't have to sc
about any more than we want to. Wher

But what a job to dig those tun-

at the very thought
Digging tunnels in snow isn't work
it's fun" declared Danny "I couldn',
nothing. And when the tunnels are
once made they are good for all win
ter. unless the snow melts."
But I should think that they would
be filled up every time we have a snow
storm ard you would have the work to
do al over again" declared Peter.
Danny chuckled. That's just like

SO. of course, there won't be any spe-

Following are several recipes for
very appetizing ways of serving goose.
which is at its best in midwinter:
Roast Goose With Prune Stuffing.-
Soak a quarter of a pound of prunes in
cold water overnight. Drain, cover
with boiling water and simmer until
tender. Wash one cup of rice, add the
prune juice and enough water to make
three cups Of liquid in all. season with
a teaspoon of salt and cook until the
rice is tender-almost twenty minutes.

blanched and cut in pieces. Blend
thoroughly and stuff, reserving some of
the dressing to be used as a garnish.
Put the goose on its breast on rack
in dripping pan, dredging with flour.
seasoned with salt and pepper, and set
in an extra hot oven to roast. When it
begins to brown, pour pint of boiling
water III the pan, and every fifteen min
uteS baSte dredging with flour, salt
and pepper after each basting. Cook
an hour and half, lift out on heated
platter, skim off the fat in the dripping
pan, thicken with a tablespoon of flour
and pour i'll a cup of boiling water. Stir
until smooth and thickened. and If it
lacks a rich brown color add a table
spoon of culinary bouquet. Strain and
serve as gravy for the goose.
Roast Goose. Potato Stufiing.-Singe,
remove pinfeathers, wash and draw a
goose. Stuff, truss. sprinkle with salt
and pepper and lay six thin strips of
fat salt pork over the breast. Place on
rack in dripping pan, put in hot oven
and roast two hours. Baste every fif-
teen minutes with fat in pan. Remove
the pork the last half hour of the cook
ing period. Remove string and skew
ers. Garnish with apple cups and
sprigS of parsley.

German Reply Does
 Not Please Britain

London, Oct 12-Germany's reply 10 President Wilson reached London TOO late for any authoritative com ment. It was bound to come. how ever, into an atmosphere charged with suspicion, and the opinion is still held in all quarters that the reply would be good gauge of the degree of Germanys military distress. An armistice is the old familiar ruse for a distressed army.
 Apparently the reply gives one statement of news. u associates Aus tria- Hungary, but not Turkey, with the German government. The mpli- cation seems to be that unless the German secretary for foreign affairs mas written the message with un- usual haste, Turkey is no longer Ger many's ally. In all previous import ant diplomatic documents Germany has scrupulously mentioned all her allies.
 The phrase, ito agree upon practi- cai details of the application of these terms is on it's face a straight reply to President Wilson. It was not un- expected here, but is likely to be re- garded with suspicion, English pap CTS have said that a conference based on such a formula may be considered by the Germans to mean an extended Iehae
