He recalled that some of the British officers present were here in connection with the conference called by President Harding with the idea that those organs of sacrifice of the World war shall not occur again.
 Admiral Beatty said that he had been aske ed why naval officers could look with pleasure on an armament reduction when 1t was In a way cutting our own throats."

Of course. l Will miss you; of course, l want to be with you, but honey, you will not get chance to have so good a time again soon.

 Young woman," replied Andrew, you are making hit with me- I knew l could go, of course. I will tell you honestly I had made up my mind l was going for exactly the reasons you have given for my go- ing.
 T had expected to have to cajole you to get your reluctant. pouting consent to go. But when you send me off like this you make me so happy that l am going to kiss you 20 times or 70 times as soon as I am done talking.

 You are a mighty fine young wom- an and even if you do not care to be familiar with a man you have known only about IS years. I am. coming over there and kiss the face off of you"
 He seated himself on the arm of her chair and looked down into her face, which was wreathed in smiles. As he looked a tear crept out on the tip of one of her lashes and tumbled down on her cheek.
 Why, honey" he exclaimed: If you feel that way I will not go."
 "Idiot" she laughed, that is not because you are going; it's because of the nice things you have just said to me-" She snuggled closer to him, waiting.

 That is one of Blacky's wise savings and he lives up to it. It is one req son he has become regarded by all his neighbors as one of the smartest of all who live in the Green Forest and on the Green Meadows. He sell dom gets into any real trouble. be- cause he first makes sure there is no trouble to get into. When he dis covers something he does not under- stand he is at once distrustful of it
 As he watched man scattering yellow corn in the water from the shore of the Big River he at once became suspicious. He couldn't un derstand why a man should throw good corn, among the rushes and wilS rice in the water, and because he couldn't understand he at once began to suspect that it was for nc good purpose. When the man lef' in boat Blacky slowly flew back over the rushes where the man had thrown the corn, and presently his sharp eyes made discovery that caused him to exclaim right out.
 What was it Blacky had discov- cred? Only few feathers clinging to the rushes where the corn had been thrown, a few downy feathers. No one with eyes less sharp than Blacky's would have noticed them : 'd few would have given them S'~ ought if they had noticed them. But <lacky knew right away that those %ere feathers from 8 Duck.

 He will hear such stuff as that and he will see these same obnoxious prigs charging 20 cents for cup of chocolate and making shrill, prepos- terous speeches full of pompous min isters slang. He will see the mili- tary police (the NJ. P's) ferociously beating up privates for failure to salute an officer.
 He will see filth and pain, cruelty and hysteria and panic, in one long three-year nightmare and he will know that the war brought the use of these things not to some other man or to some other mans son, but to himself and to his own son, that same healthy young animal who came nome two years ago bragging robustly of the things de did in France"
 Haywood Brown says:
 T do not think that the picture oe American army life painted by John Dos Passes in Three Soldiers is al- together true, or, rather, it is not complete. On the other hand, the characters he presents are credible and l have no doubt that certain men in the war gwent through just such physical and spiritual adven- lures. For my own part, I do not pretend to know, as these other re- viewers do. the opinions and feelings of MT. Dos Passes himself in regard to all war and the great war in par ticular He ought to have an artists privilege of letting his characters speak for themselves without con demning, indorsing or ampilfying their statements.
 All this may be true and yet even 1t does not disqualify such men from being the legitimate concern of novelist in fiction. I do not remem- per that Dos Passos has asserted in bis novel that his characters were admirable. To me his point seems no more than that the discipline of war Is tragieallY destructixe to certain types of heart and mind. This may not be important, but it belongs in

that a Duck, or perhaps flock of Ducks. had been resting or feeding in these among those rushes and thaf in moving about they had left those two or three downy feathers.
 "Ha" exclaimed Blacky. Mfr. and Mrs. Quack or some of their relatives have been here. It is just the kind of place Ducks like. Also some Ducks like corn. If they should come back here and find this corn they would have a feast and they would be sure to come again. That man who scattered the corn here didn't have terrible gun, but that doesn't mean that he isn't hunter, He may come back again and then he may have 2 terrible gun. I'm suspicious of that man. l am so l believe he put that corn here for Ducks and I don't be- lieve he did it out of the kindness of his heart
 If it was Farmer Browns boy ! would know that all s well; that he was thinking of hungry ducks with few places where they can feed ir safety as they make the long journey from the Far North to the Sunny South. But it wasn't Farmer Browns boy. don't like the looks of 1t. l don't indeed. I'll keep a watch of this place and see what happens"
 All the way to his favorite perch in certain big hemlock tree in the Green Forest Blacky kept thinking about that corn and the man who had seemed to be so generous with 1t. and the more he thought the more sus picious he became. He didn't like tn, looks of it. He didn't like the looks of it at all.
 I'll warn the Quacks to keep away from there. I'll do 1t the very first thing in the morning" he muttered as he prepared to go to sleep. If they have any sense at all they will stay in the pond of Paddy the Beaver. But If they should go over to tho Big River they would be almost sure to lind that corn, and if they should once find it they would keep going pack for more. It may be all right. but don't like the looks of it."
 And still full of suspicious, Blacky went to sleep.
