bestsb answered in the words of Mrs.
Play Rent Association of the Bronx:
who's your justice and where is your
corrt?"
Stay Protects Tenants
When the landlord will have nothing
but eviction, the laws then permit the
Justices to grant the tenant a stay of
any period ranging from a month to
year. The tenant thus will be per-
mitted to hold his apartment for any
icl 9Th of time up to a year that the
court sees fit to fix. The understand
ing is that he is to look for another
apartment in the meantime, and de
poslt the rent, usually the same as
&c has been paying, with the court.
There is also a diversity of opinion
among the justices on the question of
these stays. Some hold that once the
stay is given, be it a month or a year
1t is final. and the tenant must leave
the property at the end of that time
Others hold that the stays can be dealt
out in small doses of month or two
until the legal limit of year is
reached.
Most of the justices hold the latter
view, so that the average tenant fac
ing eviction proceedings can look for
ward to obtaining as much as a years
stay to tide him over the crisis.
While this protects the tenant from
being thrown out into the streets for
the time being, it pointed out that it
merely postpones the day of reckon
ing With no appreciable Improvement
IN the housing situation in sight for
at least two or three years, it is not
improbable that every other tenant
with q lease of q year or less eventu-

plain why a dispossess should not be
granted.
AS matter Of fact, the tenants
while assisted for the moment, see
themselves heading toward q situation
worse than before, and with no avenue
OF escape, for when the stays expire
they will not even have the alterna-
tive of paying an exorbitant rental

situation and still further assist the
householder over the present crisis

Bedtime Stories
A Long and Dreadful Night
BY Thornton W. Burgess
The thing that trightens us most
Is likely to tat171 ont q ghost

Peter is right What he means is
that more often than not the things
we fear are not real at all We Just
imagine them. And so very often we
are terribly frightened by nothing at
all or by something which is wholly
harmless.
After the terrible fright given him
by Boomer the Nghthawk, the fright
which had saved him from Reddy Fox
by making him run in quit3 another
direction, Peter Rabbits runaway son
tried his best to find the dear Old
Briar-patch. But. being lost in the
tall grass, he hadn't the least idea in
which direction the dear Old Briar-
patch lay and so wandered farther
and farther away from it.
Boomer the N1gnthawk kept watch
of him as long as he could, but it soon
became too dark and Boomer had to
give up. AS he started to leave the
Green Meadows he saw that Reddy Fox
was doing the same thing. He was
headed toward the Green Forest. 1t
was plain that Reddy had given up
hope of Rabbit dinner that night and
was going to look for dinner else
where.
II am glad he didn't take it into his
mead TO go nearer the Old Brlar-patch,
thought Boomer. "If he had he would
have seen sure to find the trail of that
silly young Rabbit l hope the little
scamp will find his way home"
But he didn't find his way home. All
that long, dreadful night he wandered
on and on, getting farther and farther
from home. Every little while he
stopped to rest. But he couldn't sit
still long; he just had to keep going
hoping and hoping that he would come
TO the dear Old Briar-patch.
Never before had night seemed
long, and never had the darkness
seemed terrible. That was because
always before he had been safe with
his father and mother and brothers
and sisters in the dear Old Briar- patch,
where everything was familiar. Now
everything was different. He was
alone, all alone, and he was out in the
Great World. OF which he knew nothing.
He wondered if that night would ever
ever end. He dreaded the coming of
day, yet he longed for the end of dark
ness.
The night seemed filled with dread
full sounds. They were dreadful be-
cause he didn't have the least idea who
made them. Once the hunting call of
Hooty the Owl made his heart almost
stop beating from sheer fright. He
didn't know that one of mis- most dan
New-York tribune., 1920-08-10
gerous enemies had made that sound,
but he did know that it was a fearsome
Peter Rabbit.

gerous enemies had made that sound,
but he did know that it was a fearsome
thing.
Old Man Coyote howled over in the
distant Old Pasture, and again he
shook with terror. Over at Farmer
Browns Bowser the Hound barked, and
for long time after that the lost little
Rabbit didn't dare move. Even the
deep, gruff voice of harmless Grand
father Frog over in the Smiling Pool
was terrible because unknown.
Yes, that was a long and dreadful
night, terrible night. Yet it hap
pened that not once during all those
long hours was that lost little Rabbit
in any real danger. Had Peter been
in his place he wouldn't have had
single fear. You see, Peter would have
known just what every sound meant.
But the lone, lost, willful little
Rabbit didn't know, and the Great
World he had boasted of not fearing
had become q dreadful place So he
wandered on and on, and at last, just
as jolly round, red Mr.. Sun began his
daily climb up in the blue, blue sky, a
worn out, homesck and frightened
young Rabbit crept into hole in the
ground which seemed to promise him
shelter.

Oldest Harp in World

What is said to be the Oldest harp

Old Pasture Now A Mart
But Cows Remember 1t
(Rrooklyn Eagle. J


Two cows with long memories held
I'D traffic for about 500 good citizens
at Church and Flatbush avenues at
noon, and but for patrolman Enders-
son, of the Snyder avenue station,
they would be holding it up still.
The Church and Flatbush corner is
a very busy place at noon, the busiest
in Flatbush. Changing street cars
make up the chief part OF Its land
scape and nothing in the nature OF
grass or a barn is anywhere in sight.
But the corner was once the center or
the old town Of Flatbush, where the
town pump stood, and the drinking
trough, for man and beast, had its
place of honor.
Now. nobody knows where the cows
came from. but evidently they were
exiles from once rural Flatbush and
were on the way back. They remem-
bered what Flatbush had been. They
were locking for the town pump and
the trough. It was the noon hour and
time for every self-respecting cow to
have a drink Although the two could
see nothing but trolley tracks and
uupchrooms on the corner, they knew
very well that the trough had once
tbeen there, and what had once been
should still be.
The good citizens Of Flatbush be-
came a little frightened at the sight
of the mad, mad cows. One OF them
Itelephoned to the police that me-
,nagerie had been broken open and
wildcats were devouring the Flatbush
populace. Patrolman Endresson was
rushed from the Snyder avenue sta
,tion to the rescue. He was armed with
"a rope and a police whistle and there
was blood in his eye. About 500 who
had just left nearby offices in search
of lunch gathere about him and
Icheered him on. With mighty heave
of the rope he lassooed one of the
COWS. Then he blew his whistle and
got the assistance of patrolman Shaw.
Between them they twisted the one
rope about the two cows and brought
them in triumph to the Enyder avenue
police station.
AS nobody appeared to place
charges against the cows, they were
let off with a suspended sentence and
ordered to pick up whatever grass they
could in the empty lot adjoining the
station. When last seen they were
complying with the order to the best
