THE MARKED BIRD.

KKR. WOODPECKER is a marked
Nl bird, as you all know who have
seen him, for the red spot on the
back Of his head is plainly seen when
he Is pecking away at tree, or even
II half hidden by leaves the red spot
Ii pretty sure to be seen and to re-
veal his working place, even when the
sound cannot he located. Mrs. Wood
pecker does not wear this red spot.
for she is the one who caused her
mate to be so marked, and why. do
you suppose?
Listen and I Will tell you what is
said about 1t in Birdland, for there is
always little bird, you know, that
gives away secrets and that Is how
this one was learned.
Long long ago certain Mrs. Wood
pecker. SO the story goes. had a great
deal Of trouble with her husband. be-
cause he went away from home early
and stayed late and never brought
anything home to help support the
birdlings. Mrs. Woodpecker pleaded
and peeped at this all in vain. Mr..
WoOdpecker declared he could not
find enough insects for himself. let
alone bringing some home.
Little Mrs. Woodpecker tried to
watch her mate and flew after him
The Glenwood post. (Glenwood Springs, Colo.) 1897-current, 1921-12-29
?[|{ |{|EERRF3E+{

and away before she could get near.
So one day Mrs. WoOdpecker be-
came very desperate and asked the
COLLINS to help her II can't get him
to bring home thing for the chill
dren TO eat" she said, land they eat
so m''ch I am just worn out. Do tell
me what to do. If could follow him
and catch him at work then l should
be certain he finds plenty Of food, but
I cannot prove that he does not for
l can never surprise him.
The little goblin was sitting on u
rock, out of which he had just Jumped.
and, laying a finger on one side of
his nose, he thought minute. IT have
1t, Mrs. WOodpecker." he said. jump
Ing up. II will get the fairies to let
you have some Of the red like my cap.
You can paint his head red some night
when he Is asleep. and with n red cap
like mine you can see him anywhere
In the forest"
Mrs. WoOdpecker went home with a
light heart and that night she met the
goblin, who had an. acorn cupful Of
red paint for her. But the rest was
not so easy. for when she few home
with the paint and tried to paint her
husbands head while he slept he kept
waking up and asking. "Who Is
tickling the top of my head?" and
poor little Mrs. WOodpecker could not
mark her mate.
But the next morning, just as he
was flying away. Mrs. WOodpecker
was so upset she lost her temper and
after him she threw the paint brush,
which struck the back of her hus-
bands head and left spot OF red
paint
OF course he did not know nbout
the paint and thought his wife was
cross, but there 1t was: and then Mrs.
WoOdpeeker followed and cnught her
lazy husband, for now that she could
see him some distance away. she took
good care that he should not see her
until she was beside him.
1t was no use to deny it now, for
she saw with her own eyes that there
were plenty Of insects and he had to
do his part after that toward support
ing the family.
And that is the reason that Mr..
Woodpecker wears red spot on the
back of his head and his wife does not.
so the little bird from BIrdland told
the story.

be better than to
stay with these ladies, for Mahalia
thought she had had enough Of being
poor and Of having to wish for things
she could never have.
So she was delighted when the
Fairy Wondrous Secrets granted her
request.
For days and days Mahalia lived
with the beautiful ladies who granted
all her wishes, who gave her the most
delicious Of ice creams and cakes, who
wear, who brought forth the most
magnificent Of toys, toys such as Ma.
halia had never even seen before.
Everything she wished for she had.
There was nothing she had asked for
which hadn't been given to her. No
longer did she feel poor. No longer
did she have to wear her sisters
clothes. No longer did her daddy tell
her he hoped he would always be
proud Of her. No longer did her
mother tell her to be good.
But after many days had passed a
a little sad. Just why she was sad
she didn't then quite know. She he
gan to think of her mother and of her
daddy and Of her sister who was
always Jolly and who did share things
with her.
And she began to think of her old
rag doll, which was so hugable, even
though it couldn't walk or talk. And
she began to think Of the good rice
pudding her mother always had once
a week for dinner. She asked the
beautiful ladies II she could have rice
"Rlce pudding" they said. isn't
fine enough for you; You must have
riches and Injuries and food that Is
rare and scarce and fine"
The day went along and as the
hours passed by, slowly one by one
she began to feel less and less happy.
More and more she thought Of her
mother and Of her daddy and Of her
sister. After school her sister often
played with her, and when it got dark,
as 1t was getting now, daddy always
told her story.
The beautiful ladies never told sto-
ries. They never took her in their
laps, and they were SO beautiful and
80 rich and their garments were SO
costly and SO magnificent that Mahalia
wouldn't have dared ask If she could
curl up in their laps.
Bedtime came at last and oh, this
night, though lately 1t had been bad
enough, Mahalia thought she Just
couldn't go to sleep without her moth
er's good night kiss. The beautiful
ladies never tucked her In. They
smiled upon her, but there was some
thing about them that wasn't affec-

pillow which she didn't like now near
