Fairy Tale
~MARY GRAHAM BONNER
PENGUINS s,
NARY GRAHAM BONNER

"As l told you," commenced Dad
-dy, Il am going TO tell you quite few
stories of the ways of the penguins,
for We have agreed that we thought
they were most attractive and inter-
estlng birds.
They can be divided into four
groups; or, rather, we can group them
from the four main parts of the world
where different families live, some
quite distance apart and some near
together.
West of the coast of South Amer
lea to the Equator there is cold cur
rent and In the Antarctic or south
of the Antarctic regions there are the
Emperor penguins with the white over
their eyes and the Adele penguins
with the ring across their necks.
The second group are the sub-Ant
arctic pengulns. These are in the mild
er zone, in South Georgia and upon
the Sandwich islands. Here are the
King pengufns and the Johnny pen
gums, the Rock-Hopper penguins, the
Macaroni penguins, the Victoria pen
gums and the Blue penguins that can
also be called the Insular penguins or
penguins belonging to islands.
in the second group of South Tenn
perate penguins where they live on
continents rather than islands there
are the Jackass penguins. They ars
so named because they have a braying
call which is just like that of dom
key. They are found in Africa and
in South America, and there are three
species or three families of Jackass
penguins.
I'm the fourth group of penguins
are those known as the Tropical pen
gums who live in the heart of the
tropics, near the Equator. These are
called the Gallipoli penguins.
"All penguins are fond of the wa
ter, though some Of the little ones
have to be taught that the water Is
part of their life and of their home.
"They all use their wings as pad
dies. Their wing feathers. are scale
like. They. all walk upright, as you
=. '"The Emperor and the King pen
gums lay one egg only, and this they
lay on the top Of their feet, which are

OVERRIDE VETO Of
EMERGENCY ACT
SENATE PASSES THE FARMERS,
RELIEF BILL DESPITE Ex-
ECUTlVE DlSAPPROVAL.
President Declared He Withheld APP
prevail Because the War Finance
Corporation Was a War Credit
Agency Not Needed Now.

Washlngton.-Yeto by President
Wilson on January of the farmers
relief bill to revive the war finance
corporation was followed almost i'm
mediately by vote of 50 to 5 liz the
senate to make the bill law despite
executive disapproval
1t is predicted that the house will
duplicate the senates action, making
the bill law.
President Wilson, in veto message,
declared he withheld his approval be-
cause the war finance corporation was
a war credit agency, not desirable or
needed in peace times. He said 1t
would exert no beneficial influence
on the situation-would raise false
hopes among the people who would
expect most, and would be hurtful to
the natural and orderly processes of
business and finance"
The legislation, he also said, would
result in additional credit burdens
and the government, he contended,
should not be "ealled upon further to
finance private business at public ex-
pense." Referring to widespread de-
mand for adjustment of war agencies
and removal of governmental influ-
ence from business, the president said
he had sympathy with this view, 'and
added that the nation should resume
Its usual business methods"
Upon reading of the veto message
Senator Underwood of Alabama
Democratic leader, urged its immediate
consideration, for which unanimous
consent was secured by Chairman
Gronna of the agricultural committee
Senator Underwood followed with the
only address, declaring financial dis
tress now was greater than during the
war and that he felt confident of wise
administration of the proposed law
that would cause mo undue drain on
the treasury"
On the roll call twenty-nine. Demo,
gratis were Joined by twenty-fOur Re.
publicans in overriding the veto.

"They fight for two reasons: One
Is because they feel so full of energy,

is brisk and cold, d'when they feel
happy they like to play games hard
or work hard or do anything they have
to do with lots of energy.
"The other reason the Mr.. Penguins
do this Is because they like to show
off before their mates. They feel fine
AMI healthy and well and happy. And,
too, they like to have their mates see
how brave and splendid they are.
