FLOWER PARADE.
MARY RAHAM BONNER

Here we come" said the crocus
lowers In the garden as they peeped
up just after the snow had left the
ground in the early spring.
They were Of different colors, pur-
pie, blue, white, yellow and orange,
and how bright and cheerful they did |
look for it was still somewhat chilly.
Were glad to see you," said the
fairies, "and we know the children
and grOwnups are too.''
The fairies always got up very early
In the morning and they welcomed
every flower as it came out. The sun
smiled and beamed too and said:
Hello flowers, how are you? I'll give
you little warmth"
OF course the sun was so high up
and the flowers so near the ground
that they couldn't talk very we'll to
dear old Mr.. Sun, but they were fond
keeping them fine and warm.
1t was not long after this that the
fairies were in this same garden early
one morning when they saw some of
the other spring flowers.
'Why here are some lovely hya-
cinths," they said. Mice purple hya-
cinths and pink ones too-white and
lavender ones as well. How fragrant
you are, dear, lovely hyacinths."
And the hyacinths whispered to the
fairies how they loved the world and
fairies and children and that was the
reason they were so sweet They SIM
ply couldn't help being anything else
: There were the beautiful, bright tu
lips, too. How gay and jolly and happy
they were. They were wearing theil
brightest colors. Some wore dark rec
D and how handsome they we're!
!, Others wore bright orange and SOM
wore yellow. Still others wore beauti
- full pink and some wore mixtures o
: colors. "We're bright because we'r
\ so happy" they said.
~ The daffodils, so yellow and cheer
: full came along next and the narcissu
~ flowers were just as sweet as ever.
"It's wonderful to see the differer
flowers come out" the fairies said.
I Just then a lilac bud burst int

the other lilacs were out in very fe
days after this.
"We'll tell you a story" said II

Persian lilac bushes listened as did Il

MAY CALL DIAMOND

Major league club owners are not
at all sure Of holding players within

their services would amount to.
Should the Giants lose Kauh, NC

wrecked. Davey Robertson's determ1
nation to quit the game was hart
enough blow, but the dashing LITTLE

10000 ARE OUT IN BERLIN.
Semi. Official Announcement Differ.
Greatly From Newspaper
Reports.

Amsterdam, Jan. 31.-The num-
her of strikers in Berlin is estimated
at about 100000, according to a
semi-official statement issued in Ber-
lin yesterday, when there had been
only an inconsiderab,e increase in
the strike since Tuesday.
The Berlin newspapers with few
exceptions have been published. The
streets of the German capital, the
statement adds, show no signs of a
strike. All traffic is proceeding
quiently and undisturbed.
The statement says there have
been no disturbances anywhere in
the empire.
Both in Berlin and the provinces
the strikes are spreading, however,
according to Wednesdays edition of
the Koelnische Volks Zeitung, which
reports that representatives Of labor
in the various cities of the indus
trial region were xepected to meet
in Berlin on Tuesday.
Agitation for a general strike in
Munich is said to have failed after
a stormy meeting, but the movement
spread to Nuremburg and Furtt, the
largest manufacturing towns in b.
varia. The newspaper says that the
demand of the fatherland party for
the continuance Of the war and the
bad food supply in the towns were
the reasons given for the strike at
several meetings.

Interior Minister Refuses to Meet

London, Jan. 31-Only a few tele-
grams have arrived in Copenhagen
from Germany, an Exchange Tele-
graph dispatch from the Danish cap
ital says, and news is scarce owing to
the fact that most of the important
Berlin newspapers have not been
published.
The military authorities in the
Berlin district, according to the Ber-
lin correspondent of the Copenhagen
Politiken, have prohibited all meet
ings convened to discuss public ques-
tions, as we'll as workmen's meet
ings and demonstrations
Fifty thousand workmen have
ceased work at Kiel. The strike is
now general in the Chemnitz dis
trict, which is the most important in
dustrial section in SaxOny. Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg's proclama-
tion appealing to the workers to stop
striking appeared on all the street
corners of Berlin yesterday.
The Germania, of Berlin, says that
Herr Walraff., minister of the in
terror, still refuses to meet delegates
of the workmen and the strike con-
tinues to grow.
