Why You ShouldGo
To Church

To be of no church is dangerous Religion, or
which the rewards are distant and which is animated
only by Faith and Hope, will glide by degrees out of
the mind. unless it be nvigorated by external ord-
nances by stated calls to worship and the saIutary
influence of example.

PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
BY David Cory.

flaming gold feather and little gold ring
to protect him against evil? But, OF
course, the Dwarf didn't know that.
Well, after they had gone for maybe
mile or maybe less, big rock came into
view. And when they were close to 1t
the little Dwarf knocked on 1t three
times and half, and all Of sudden a
tiny door opened, and right In front Of
them was a fight of stone steps leading
down into the ground.
Follow me-" said the little man, "but
don't trip, or you may fall a mile" and
he turned to look at Puss to see II his
words had frightened him. But Puss
only grinned and said:
'I'll be careful, never fear"
Well, after a while they came to an
other door, and when this opened Puss
found himself In large room. And then
little woman dressed In a green skirt
and a yellow waist got up from chair
and said
why, this must be Puss in Boots
Junior" And then she said; "Sit down,
my dear, and Ill tell you all about my
little man and myself. for know you
are wondering why we live so far down
in the earth" And in the next story you
shall hear what she said.--Copyright,
1920. Ito BE Continued.)
Indiana daily times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1914-1922, 1920-10-13

In the last story we left little Puss
Junior with Giant Whistle and all the
little whistiing birds of the forest, you
remember. Well, pretty soon Puss said
81 think I must be going on my way,
Sir Giant Whistle!" So the big man
put Puss down on the ground and
wished him q pleasant journey, and after
that Puss set of and pretty soon, not
so very far, he came to a little Dwarf
who was sewing buttons on little green
coat.
He was sitting at the foot Of a big,
high walnut tree and was sowing on the
walnut shells for buttons. And it wasn't
such a very easy job. either, let me tell
you, for first he had to make little holes
in the hard shell with a small. sharp
gimlet
"Halloa, little manP' said Puss, taking
off his cap with the flaming gold feather
and sitting down by the little man of
the wood.
For whom are you making this coat %
And who may you be?" asked the lit
tie man with frown. You see, he wasn't
going to answer questions without know
ing who Puss was. So Puss told him
why he was travelling through Fairy
Land, and who was his father, and, oh,
lots and lots of things. and pretty soon
the little Dwarf said, after he had put
on the walnut button. Come with me.
Sir Cat, and l will show wou some new
things. 1 see you are fond of adventure. f"
And then he picksG up the little green
coat and stuck his needle in the lapel
of his jacket and started Off through the
forest.
You needn't worry. for I mean you
no HARM" he said. looking back at Puss.
But he needn't have said that, for Puss
wasn't the least bit worried. For why
should he be? Didn't he have his magic
