wrong they are
Were not nervous. We're not trem-
bling because we're afraid. We
couldn't be afraid, the world is too
lovely!
when there are Sunbeams and
Breeze Brothers for friends, why
would we be afraid?
1--WE aren't That is the answer to
that question we've asked.
"Oh, Sunbeams and Breeze Broth
ers, the Aspens aren't nervous and
they don't tremble from fear. Never
let anyone tell you that.
"They shake all the time because
that is the way they have Of dancing.
"They love to dance. They never
grow weary Of dancing!
when there is hardly any breeze at
all we dance because we beg the very
tiniest little breeze to play with US.
And they all will play with us
They will come along and ask us IL
we're tired. But we're never, never
tiredl
I'VE always like to dance.
In the springtime we have pretty
gray catkins which grow out Of our
buds. We even dance then. When
we're fixing our spring clothes we
when we're changing our costumes
we dance. When we become lovely
green leaves we dance.
THAT is why we asked you, Sun
beams, to let ,us join your dance to-
day. Sometimes we've danced along
with you when you've hardly noticed
us. But we understood that. For you
were so busy dancing yourselves.
"And you, Breeze Brothers, you
haven't known always that we were
dancing with you, because you've been
busy taking messages around for the
fairies, or doing some other little err
rands, or else playing or dancing your
selves.
But we've never missed chance.
Never, never, never! The Aspens are
never still. When the other trees are
quiet and having an afternoon nap on
summers day, We. the Aspens, are
dancing gaily.
Come, Sunbeams, let us all dance
hard and fast now, and Breeze Broth
ers, help us to dance fine and merry
dances
For we love to dance. oh. we love to
dance,
And we always do when we get the
chance!
"And the chance comes often for we
never miss one.
Dancing to US is the greatest of funv'
And the Aspen leaves danced on the

Bulbul is name given to vari-
Gus birds, especially those Of kind
found in southern and southeastern
Asia. But it was originally an Arabic
Persian name for the Persian night
ingale. These birds, much like the
thrushes, are very small, and the plum
age often very brilliant. They are
seen in Persia, India, Palestine, and
southwark to South America. In In

small companies, Is seen visiting all

himself m one "whO writes and grins,
az IL he thought he were very funny
indeed This was when he was well
into his story. In starting a novel he
was extremely slow. He could not hit
upon names that satisfied him. His
most loved hero was Trotfield, Trotbury,
Copperboy and COpperstone before he
finally became CopperneId. But once
Ia his stride he seldom rewrote, and he
plunged ahead joyousIy.
For every hour given to writing he
set aside another for exercise. He de-
seribes how he "waIked about the black
streets of London Is and 20 miles many
@ night when all the sober folks had
gone 10 bed" As he walked, whether
In London or Paris streets or aIonsr the
hentish cliffs, he was planning his
story. But he was not SO absorbed
as TO be obIivious to the peOpIe he
passed. Quaint and commonplace men
and women in city streets and country
FINES flashed for moment before his
eyes and the next day were maze Inn
mortal IN his tales.
