PUSS IN BOOTS
JUNIOR
By David Cory.

7 y the last story we LETT little
Puss Junior in the Magic Boat
on his way from China to some
other land. When the magic
boat landed him at Rangoon, the
chief port of Burma, he jumped out
and started off 10 see the sights,
and by and by, after a while, he
saw a fat, yellow-clad Buddhist
priest sitting in a monastery door
way.
He was smoking an enormous
cheroot, which means cigar In In
dia, you know, and by his side stood
q little boy dressed in a striped
skirt, a big lowered jacket and a
pink silk Handkerchief. He was
holding a big paper umbrella over
the priests head. for the sun was
very hot.
But before Puss could speak. the
priest went inside and the little
boy followed him, and pretty soon
several other boys went in, and
school commenced. But, of course.
Puss didn't know that, so he peeped
in through the door and saw the
priest squatting upon a low, mat
covered platform, while the boys
sqUatted on the bare floor in rows
before him
And, oh. dear me! how they did
shout out the alphabet. And then.
all Of a sudden, one OF the boys
the same little boy who was fam
ming the priest before school COM
menced-saw Puss. And then he
took a pet snake out of his Jacket.
who began to crawl ever his toes
and soil himself up in the sunshine
that fell upon the school room floor.
But, oh. dear me, again. When the
priest saw the snake he was almost
as angry as the teacher was when
he saw Mary's' little lamb in school,
and he made Pc Thin (for this was
the boys name) put the snake back
in his jacket, and after that take
another boy on his back and march
up and down the schoolroom several
times. And this made all the other
boys laugh at him, and it almost
made little Pc Thin cry. But he
didn't, and when school was owe
he ran out and spoke TO Puss and
showed him strange animals aud
charms which were tattooed on his
brown skin.
Goodness me.' laughed Puss,
"you are a regular living picture
book" And then Pc Thin told him
that by the time he was a man he
would have pictures tattooed on him
from his belt to his knees. AMI h..
told Puss lots and lots of other
things-how he was born on Mon
day. and how all the days of -he
week are ruled by animals-the
tiger ruled his birthday, and the
lion ruled Tuesday. and the elephant
Wednesday, and the rat Thursday,
and the guinea pig Friday, and a
dragon Saturday and I half-bird,
half-beast ruled Sunday.
And after that the little Burmese
boy took Puss TO his house. where
his mother Tas making red rice
cakes and singing to her baby in
the cradle, which was an old basket
fastened by long ropes to the CELL
ing. And it swung so low that the
other children could give IL a push
and keep ii going all the time.
Well. by and by the afternoon
wore away and Puss knew he must
get back to hi5 Magic Boat, so he
said good by and ran back to the
beach. And in the next story YOU
shall hear of another country Puss
visited in this wonderful boat OF
his.

Do They Still Believe 1t?

Now that the call for the Liberty
Loan is out and the figure fixed at
$4,000. 900, isn't it possible that
some of the advocates of cutting up
Central Park have become just lit
tie calmer? 10 they really think
that $4,000 100000 won't be raised
unless a hundred thousand people
trample over the north meadow, or
the sheep meadow, whichever it is to
be, to see what a trench looks like?
The Secretary of the Treasury, there
is every reason to believe, won't
agree with them if they hold that
view. He says:
The great events now happening
in France must fire the soul OF ever
American with new determination
to furnish all the dollars and all the
material resources of America that
are needed to put an end to the ex-
ecrable atrocities of German mill
tariSm.'
The great events now happening
in France will fire the souls of
enough Americans to raise a loan of
several times $4,000 100000, even
without the knowledge that Ameri-
can forces are now fighting shoulder
to shoulder with the British and the
French. The argument for despoil-
ing Central Park has been that the
loan, whatever its amount might be,
would be in some danger of failing,
or at least of having hard shedding,
unless a large number of people
could see a trench. and that they
would not look at a trench unless it
were placed in the north meadow Of
Central Park. Yet there is already
hesitation about the north meadow,
because it has taken so many years
of watchful care to bring it to its
present state.
In view of the turn of events in
France and the turn of events in
Washington, is there one of them
who really believes it now?-N. Y

road employees have been notified to
set their clocks and watches an nour

The safest plan, to make the

no misunderstanding and everybody
will be in accord with Washington

that many Cambridgeans will care to
stay up to make that change, it is
urged that the clock be given con-

This done. there will be no change
in affairs. Churches will hold their
morning service at II o'clock, by the
clock; the train will leave at few
minutes after one, and the boat at
six O'Clock. Next week business will
continue at the usual hours, and the

In order to keep abreast of the
