Jenny and Mr.. Wren Are
Busy.

Jenny and Mr.. Wren were busy, Yes,
stree, they were busy. If there were
any buster little folks anywhere Peter
Rabbit couldn't imagine who they
could be. You see. every one of those
seven eggs in that nest had Matched.
and seven mouths are lot to feed,
especially when every morsel of food
must be hunted for and carried from
a distance.
There was little time for gossip
now. Just as soon as it was light
enough to see Jenny and Mr.. Wren
began to feed those always hungry
babies, and with hardly time for an
occasional mouthful themselves they

grow very fast and this means that
each one of them must have a great
deal Of food every day. A Wren baby
often eats it's own weight in food
in a day, and all this food has to be
hunted for and carried back and put
into the gaping little mouths.
With seven such gaping little
mouths you can imagine how busy
the Wrens were. Hardly would Jenny
disappear in the little round doorway
of her home with a caterpillar in her
bill than she would pop out again
and Mr.. Wren would take her place

ARGENTINE TO WELCOME
LARGE GERMAN COLONIES

BERLIN, August II Correspondence
ence of the Associated Press).-It is
expected that several million Germans
will attempt, as soon as passes are
available. to leave Germany and Sc
cure more lucrative employment
abroad.
The newly organized imperial mi
grafton bureau denies that q German

country could suddenly assimilate.
but says that delegates of the new
bureau will shortly go to the Argen-
tine to protect such Germans as do
arrive there from being robbed and
deceived.
The bureau says the Argentine is
friendly to Germans and offers good
chances for skilled labor such as car
penters, watchmakers. mechanics and
printers.
The Argentine consulate general
says that a commission has been sent
to the Argentine which will buy land
for the erniErants and institute farms
and schools.

The Shoes We Shall Wear.

From Paris we hear that there are
women over there who for distinc-
TONS sake. and to show their dissatis-
faction with the extremes Of footgear
now worn in Paris. have sent to this
country for black leather pumps.
which they wear with considerable
satisfaction. And this is happening
just when a good many Americans
are devoutly wishing that we over
here might have a respite from the
long. narrow. pointed toe Of our pres
emit shoes and slippers, and have some
thing like the French shoe with its
straps. Especially do we feel this
way about it If our feet are of the
sort that rather protest at being put
into a narrow long-vamp shoe. We
feel as If all our foot discomforts
would vanish II we only had a round
toed shoe like that worn by the
French women.
But there really seems little chance
of getting any nearer the French shoe
this autumn or winter. In fact the
vamp is just little longer. SO author
tiles on shoes tell us. And there is no
indication that this longer vamp is
going to have a rounder toe. which,
Of course. would be quite appalling on
a long-vamp shoe. And there Is no
special reason to believe that we are
going to get heel that is straighter.
1t may be higher. but there is little to
make US think it will be lower or
straighter.
To be sure there will be the baby
Louis" heels. 50 called. that you saw
sometimes last season. This Is a
curved heel. but. it is somewhat lower
than any heel we are inclined to asso-
ciate with a curved heel. Some people
welcome it with enthusiasm. They
think it provides grace without the
discomfort of the very high heel.
Those who prefer. the straight high
heel that the French are now wearing
think that this is extremely ugly.
To a good many people there is no
cause for rejoicing over the fact that
button shoes are returning. Among
these are the long-suffering folk who
At our shoes to us. For we are not all
endowed with the same sized ankles
or ankles that are tapered in just the
same way; so, for some of us, the but
tons must be set that way and for
others they must come this way, and
all this means extra attention and
more detail in fitting-not to mention
the actual work in changing the but
tons. Besides most men-not all men,
but most men-decidedly prefer lace
shoes on women to button shoes. Per-
haps this is because they associate
button shoes with shoes that have
buttons missing. and this, indeed. is the
worst characteristic of a button shoe.

AT il late hour this afternoon
rltmoTs current around the city hall
were to the effect that the nabobs of
''thc sixth floor" had gotten busy in
the matter of the election of presi-
dent of the city council at tonight's

With the unanimous selection OF
the democratic caucus of hold-Ovcr
aldermen held several nights ago,
combined with the fact that the dem
ocrats have Il majority, the election
tonight of Alderman Lou Freudcn-
stein as president of the council was
considered assured. Apparently ii
was until the powers that control the
dcstinics of city politics from the top
floor of the Hcnncssy building en-
tered an objection to Mr.. hrcuden-

who was present, the names OF Aid
