whiskered mouse made her give up this
idea very quickly.
"This is a lot Of fun" squeaked
Gnawer, after he had dropped the
handkerchief behind Peggy and darted
away, 'but 1t would have been more
fun il / could have brought that girl
here and given her the soaring I'd
planned
Peggy felt a nervous shiver run
through her. She wondered If Gnawer
really suspected that she was the girl
he was speaking about. But he went
on playing the game without looking
at her, and she made up her mind that
he didn't mean anything by what he
had said. Nevertheless, she made up
her mind that she was going to keep
those mice SO busy that they wouldn't
have time to think of the girl they had
wanted to scare. She was scared
enough right then without any more
added on.
But even though Peggy was nervous,
she no longer felt creepy when the long
tails of tho mice touched her. And they
seemed so jolly at their play that she
was sure they wouldn't hurt her il she
could only keep them good humored.
They played button, button, whose
time when suddenly a fat lady mouse
came squealing into the hall.
,"Oh! Oh! Oh Our supper has been
stolen - she said. ''It was corn and
cheese, and gang of bad rats has car
ried 1t away"
At once the play stopped. The mice
were angry. They were hungry, too,
and the more they thought of how hun
CRY they were, the angrier they got.
Peggy. Billy and Judge Owl could no
longer rely upon the protection of their
good humor, for their good humor was
gone.
Peggy saw that something had to be
done quickly.
Virginia reel Virginia reel! Come
dance the Virginia reel" she cried.
''That's more fun than eating."'
She had said just the right thing. It
turned the thoughts Of the mice away
from their lost supper. If there was
anything more fun than eating they
wanted to try it,

attention to Peggy, Billy and Judge

There was a wrissiins and squirm-
ing In the shadows around the edge Of
the hall. Peggy and Billy became
aware that dozens OF mice were sitting
there twitching their ears and looking
as uncomfortable as children do when
they come early to party and are
waiting for some one to start the
and squirmed all were too shy 10 begin

However, their eyes were busy, and
they noticed what. Gnawer did-that
Peggy, Billy and Judge Owl were not
Ike mice. They began to whisper
among themselves as they looked and
looked, and Peggy began to get ner-
vous. Supposing that they should find
that the strangers were two children
and a mouse eating bird! Then there
would be trouble. 1t would never do
to let the mice look too sharply nor to
whisper too long. Somebody ought to
start the play at once, and as no one
else did, Peggy started 1t herself.
Lets play tag first" she said.
Tag, you're it, She touched Gnawer
and darted away. Gnawer tagged

CHICAGO. March 5.-Confident and
unabashed, pretty Norma Cook, 1S,
was her fathers witness at his trial

when he left the court room after

.'Bradway had threatened to choke
Cooks tongue out if he ever started

This, she said, was after Cook had
come to Chicago from Columbus,

trial like an elderly woman. Wear

HELD BACK FROM W.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.l
WASHINGTON March 5.-Japa-
nese and Chinese representatives
issued statement to the press today
agreeing that the league Of nations
will settle oriental problems, but TAX
ing contrary views regarding the In
dividual aspirations of their respec-
tive countries.
The Chinese, reasserting their
claims to Kiao Chow and denouncing
Japan's 'twenty-one demands" on
China openly charged that japan
prevented China from joining the
war in 1914 and 1915. After China
had notified the allies she decided
to declare war in 1914, it was charged
she received intimation from a Ger
tain power" that such a move would
be likely to create comNications."
Again in 1915 she was prepared to
enter the war, but Japan refused to
assent
Endorsing the league Of nations as
the biggest achievement of all times,
the Chinese statement concluded:
We have known little greatness.
Maybe much that was lost will be re-
gained under the international order
in which we will be free to live our
life untrammelled and unthreatened
, by the type Of state whose material
greatness is based or war"
The Japanese statement was issued
by Marquis Saionji in response to a
query regarding Japan's attitude to-
ward the league Of nations.
Japan is completely sympathetic
with the great project to establish
peace on a just, impartial and firm
basis.
I'VE view the question as much
from the general world viewpoint as
from that of the far east. where we
have been compelled three times in
the past half century to resort to
arms to maintain peace. We are
happy that humanity finally will be
able to get a glimpse, although
feeble, OF the new era in which right
will definitely triumph over force.
II am firmly convinced that China
will appreciate our just and legiti-
mate aspirations and will come to a
complete understanding with Japan
for maintenance of the general
tion in the far east.
Formation of the leag que Of nations
will contribute essentially to dissf-
pate Inc CuTIeuI pTeJuuICeS VI uteu
regarding their real interests. This
emancipation Of human thought will
be eminently salutary not only for
the world in general, but also for
each nation particularly. Future
union OF the oriental world-of which
the population is more than half that
of humanity-with the occidental, in
sentiments, perfect harmony and
lasting good will, is high and sub
lime vision"

COPENHAGEN, March s. The
German government is facing its
gravest and possibly its final test
of authority, 1t was indicated in dis
patches received here today.
With disorders growing in Berlin,
the general strike was reported to
have spread to Leipzig, where Spar
tacans were said to be entrenched to
oppose leagued force of govern
.naent troops approaching the city.
|, Armed clashes have occurred In
the Tiergarten and Weirmastrasse at
Berlin. and plundering and riotins
was said to be going on in all parts
l. of the city. Several units OF govern
ment troops were reported to be
wavering in their loyalty and three
! additional divisions were being hur
ried to the city.
Government troops have occupied
the artillery de1ots and warehouses
at Spandau, where $4,000 workers
are on strike
The independent socialists are sup
porting the strike, and the decision
Of independent socialist trades union
lists as to whether they should join
the demonstrations, was expected
hourly. Printers employed on the
Tageblatt, Vossische Zeitung, Lokai
Anzeiger, Morgenpost and other non
radical newspapers walked out with
out waiting for formal approval OF
their unions. None of these papers
was able to publish.
Food was said to be growing
scarcer owing to the enormous waste
resulting from plundering.
New Revolution.
LONDON, March 5.-The new
revolution in Germany apparently
backed by the weight Of the greater
part of the workers and all radical
elements had resulted today In grow
ing appreciation of the necessity for
speeding conclusion of preliminary
peace.
The British press was advocating
moral support of the present German
government as well as supplying the
