Bedtime Stories
Farmer Browns Boy Gets Acquainted
By Thornton W. Burgess
To +cin tho forest folk to you
Be gentle, just, and kind and true.

Farmer Browns boy was getting &C
quainted with Jimmy Skunk's family
There was no doubt about it. He and
Jimmy had been friends ever since he
had set Jimmy free from cruel trap,
but Mrs. Jimmy had not been so ready
to take Farmer Browns boy on faith.
That was because she felt that on her
more than Jimmy rested the RESPONSE
bili-ty for that precious family of
seven. sponsi-bili-ty means, you
know, the duty of caring for and watch
ing over and protecting those things
intrusted to you.
So Mrs. Jimmy. not knowing Farmer
Browns boy as we'll as Jimmy did,
was slow to trust him fully, which
was quite right and wise of her. She
had to be sure in her own mind that
he was just what he seemed-a true
friend. For several evenings in sue
cession he visited the home in the
Far Corner of the Old Orchard. Each
time he brought food, things he knew
a Skunk would like. Each time he
spread the goodies. Sometimes he
would move a little. When he did
that Mrs. Jimmy would at once become
suspicious. Up would go her big tail
as a warning. Then Farmer Browns
boy would sit perfectly still until that
danger signal was lowered.
After a few evenings Of this sort
Of thing Mrs. Jimmy made up her mind
that he was to be trusted. She proved
it by deliberately walking up to him
and taking a bit of meat from his
hand. That was all the seven babies
needed to make them know that there
was nothing to fear from the curious
great creature who brought them such
goodies, and they crowded around HIM
and pushed each other out of the way
as they scramb led TOR the goodies he
held out for them.
After while Farmer Browns boy
slowly stretched out hand and patted
one of them Mrs. Jimmy watched
him sharply and her warning signal
began to 20 up. Farmer Browns boy
CHECKED. otis all right, quite all
right, old lady" said he, and Mrs.
Jimmy understood. OF course she
didn't understand the words, but she
understood the tone Of his voice and
was satisfied
From that time on Farmer Browns
boy got acquainted very rapidly. Those
funny little black-and white babies had
no fear of him at all. They would
let him pick them up and hold them.
Mrs, Jimmy didn't wholly approve Of
this at first, but soon made up her
mind that it was all right ana made
n watchful eye on those precious
babies.
After while it got so that he could
20 over there In the daytime and call
them out Of their home. They always
came because they knew that he would
have something good for them to eat
and he never once disappointed them

Captain Bartlett.
i'm the nineteen months since we
had heard from him he should be in 4

evidently has accomplished little and
has ended up differently than l thought
Probably his vessel has drifted on the
Siberian coast. If everything had gone

Amundsen planned to return from
the Pole by way of Cape Columbia
North America, 413 miles from the tor
Of the world.
May Have Reached Pole in Plane
DR.. Edmund o. Hovey, of the Amer
lean Museum of Natural History, took
more optimistic view than Captain
Bartlett.
1t is quite possible that Captain
Amundsen may have attained the North
Pole in airplanes, according to DR.
Hovey
DR. Hovey headed an expedition to

Ian, who was stranded at Etah in 1915
and was himself frozen in the Arctic
ice for nearly two years in Parker
Snow Bay, just behind Cape George
on the way to the northwest coast OF
Greenland.
Saying that comment on Captain
Amundsen's expedition now would be
"sheer guesswork," DR.. Hovey con-
suited globe beside his desk and said
"Amundsen probably came across
the land from the Arctic Ocean to
reach the trading station on the Anadir
River. I don't think he reached the
pole-but that is quite possible.
"He took provisions for seven years
and expected to be gone four years
He was qualified air pilot, and there
is no reason why he could not have
flown to the pole.
"He may have been caught in the
heavy ice and drawn down the north
east passage Of the Arctic Ocean and
through the Bering Strait, around the
northwest coast of Asia"

Proposed Increase Is Absurd.

absurd upon the face of it when YOU
consider that in two thirds of the
