CHAPTER III.
Peggy Hears Strange Talk.

WHAT could the warning
w mean' Before Peggy could
W question the Rooster he
slipped away in the crowd.
Why should there be spies in this
peaceful gathering? 1t is true that
the Birds were war workers-doine
their share to grow food by COB,
bling up worms and bugs that would
otherwise destroy the crops, but
there was no secret about this work
The Birds had been at il openly all
summer long.
Peggy wondered if the spies
might be trying to learn about the
Pigeons whom Billy Belgium had
recruited for messenger service in
the American army abroad. If they
were, it wouldn't do them much
good, for the Pigeons by this time
were safely somewhere in Europe
training for their war work.
But whatever the spies were at
ter. Peggy determined to be on her
guard. She would be alert to block
any hostile plans she might discover.
The carnival frolic was now in full
swing. The Birds were cutting all
sorts of capers. singing, dancing, do
ing acrobatic stunts and making
merry in bits of comedy.
A cricket orchestra furnished
music-a queer monotonous kind of
music that was varied only as some
of the musicians chirped fast or
slow.
Judge Owl. who appeared to be
very much smitten with Peggy, ap-
preached her with grand bow.
ION. dance with me, Witch OF the Night!
Come fill my heart with rare delight.
feel I've got TO shake toe
And give these Birds jolly show"
Peggy couldn't resist his plea, and
danced funny, happy jig with
Judge Owl, while the other Birds
gathered around and applauded.
Their Jig livened up the whole car
nival. and soon everyone was Jig
ging. Peggy got tired, but the Judge
kept right on dancing, A beautiful
Pheasant stopped beside her and be-
gan to chat pleasantly. Peggy was
so busy laughing at Judge Owls an.
tics that she didn't listen very atten-
lively. although she answered polite
ly, Presently she realized with a
Jerk that there was something pc
culiar about what the Pheasant was
saying.
ISN'T it a shame that we can't
have fun like this all the time, in
stead of wasting our time helping
the farmers" the Pheasant re-
marked. Il, for one, am growing
mighty tired OF work A Bird is
born for play, not for toll
Peggy turned to the Pheasant with
questioning eyes,
why, how queer you talk" she

Liberty Loan Saleswomen,

Over 200 women attended the
meeting of majors and captains OF
the Women's Fourth Liberty Loan
committee at the Fontenelle hotel
Monday afternoon. when final in
structions were given for the COM
ing drive.
DR.. Olga Stastny addressed the
meeting. I'VE are not the selfish
women we were a year ago. You
can now go to the woman who has
the most work to do at home and
she will drop everything and ask,
what do you want me to do?' That
is the spirit that is developing
among the women of this country
today"
Dr.. Stastny begged the women to
be patient; to be dignihed and tact
full, especially with the foreign-born.
Garry the spirit of American wo-
manhood into every home" she
urged, land some who lave refused
you at first may change their minds
when you call again"
when the working girl buys a
bond, there is something grand and
glorious about it. The bond OF the
millionaire cannot be compared to
the sacrifice her $50 bond repre-
sents."
Referring to the Battalion OF
Death" in Russia, DR.. Stastny said,
"The women of this country are
forming a Battalion of Life not
of DEATH because life itself is to
be sent into the trenches. When
the boys take up the papers and see
what the women of America are
doing, they are inspired with new
life and we must keep that new
life flowing into the trenches by our
work here at home"
