big horses such as you see outside Of
a cobbler's shop, make-believe ones, but
just the same size as real ones.
And these horses were covered with
vines of ivy-that was all you could
see. and it looked as though they were
ivy horses!
"'Hello Ivy horses said the fairies.
You are certainly very fine, indeed. 1t
is pity though that you cannot neigh.
Never mind, you look just as though
you could, at any moment!
"'Hello, fairies,' called the flowers
in the sample gardens which had been
made for the flower show. There We're
sample cottages and gardens around
them, there were hedges Of all sorts,
beautiful Japanese hedges.
"There were lovely acacia flowers
the beautiful yellow shrubs or small
bushes, you know. There were fine,
expensive flowers, too, which were used
TO living in hot houses, such as the
orchids.
Sometimes fairies said the or
chids, we wish we grew out of doors
and were picked by children and
weren't so rare and costly
"'Hello, fairies,' called the spring
flowers, some of which had been sent
from section Of the country which
was fairly near, but was little warm
err than the other sections. There were
beds of tulips, two yellow beds, or
rather two beds of yellow tulips, there
were beds Of pink tulips and beds OF
| tulips Of all cOlOrs.
"There were hyacinths of blue and
hyacinths Of white and hyacinths OF
| purple. And all these flowers had
| come from warmer parts and told the
other flowers that it was going to be
warm for them soon, for the warm
winds and the sun and the old weather
man had told them so.
'"There was an exhibit of sweet peas
end they called the fairies to come and
chat with them.
"'We're going to be sold, fairies, and
we'd like you to see us, for we're try
ing to look our best, and we certainly
are wearing our best Clothes
And then the fairies laughed and
said, severe glad you wore your bes
clothes, all of YOU
"Then there was windmill which
was quiet now. And there We're bulbs
of many sorts, and tiny pine trees.
"'We're going to be sold fairies ani
put into the ground said the bulbs
and we're going to come out into beau
tiful spring flowers
"'We're going to be sold, fairies, ant
the tiny pine trees, and we're also go
ing to be shown as samples of how
trees like lis can be grown
But daylight had come and the SUI
soon peeped in the windows where thu
flower show was being held and said
"'HellO, fairies, how do you like TIL
flower Show?
awe love it, the fairies all said
but we must be going now. View
had wonderful time
"And the flowers all nodded thei
pretty heads and said, "'Thank you
lovely fairies.'"

Dear Madam:
have very great pleasure in send

" l think OF the great work which
has been done by the Salvation Army
amongst the allied armies in France
and the other theaters Of war. From
all sides ] hear the most glowing
accounts Of the way your people have
added TO the comfort and welfare Of

them by that excellent organization,
the Salvation Army.

WHAT LABOR WANTS.

Our American workers do not listen
readily to revolutionary propaganda ON
the whole, their life has been a better
life thar that of the workers Of Rus
STA, or Italy, or France, or even per-
haps Of England. The traditions of
feudal caste have not pressed so heav-
lily upon them as upon their European
brothers. But precisely BECAUSE they
have been taught by school text and
stump speaker that in America one man
Is as good as another, they ~''want-what
you want for yourself and your chill
dren." II that very human, II vague
and intangible desire Is permitted to
work itself out through constitutional
channels; II when they seek a con
crete and organized expression Of that
desire the courts do not hold them
In contempt; II when they protest
against the spreading horror Of unem-
ployment and the slow starvation of
inadequate wages the governing au-
thorities do something better than de-
nounce their leaders, the workers Will
be patient, they will be loyal to what
TX best In our American democratic ira
dition. But we shall be misled If we
assume that governmental neglect and
incompetence, and vindictive Intolerance
on the part Of those who own our in
dustrial establishments and employ la
Dor, can have any happier sequel IN
America than It has had lin Europe, II
Is as certain as a law In physics that
the price of repression Is violence

when | am going to have some souse
off your ears" cried a sudden, sharp,
harsh voice from beside the road, and
out popped the bad old Pipsisewah.
You got away from the Bazooka,
but you aren't smart enough to get
away from me-" boosted the Pipsise-
wah. Il shall ave my souse!'
You shall not!' suddenly. quacked
Lulu. You think we aren't smart
| enough to get away from you, Ell? Well
three heads are better than two, even
If one is only a cabbage head" With
that the duck girl picked up the hard
head of cabbage INT threw it at the
Pipsisewah. 1t struck him full and
| plenty on his broad nose.
"Oh, WOW! Oh, WOW! Oh, VOW
cried the Pip three times, just like that.
i've had enough" he said. You have
too many heads for me-" Away he ran,
and Uncle Wiggily got up and picked
UP the cabbage, which zone the worse
for being thrown at the Pipsisewah.
Then the rabbit gentleman took Lulu
home and went home himself with the
vinegar, and he was very glad he had
met the duck girl.
And if the peanut butter isn't too
proud to sit beside the strawberry
shortcake, when they take a long ride
on the clothes horse, I'll tell you next
about Uncle Wiggily and Aliees po-
