Washington.
Dear Junior Scientists: The other
day 1 wrote to you about taking
hikes and there is one hike here in
Washington If you ever take it,
you will want to stay for several
days. Just take this hike out Con-
necticut avenue past the entrance to
the Zoo and keep on until you come
TO the bureau of standards back from
the avenue and up on Il hill. There
is certainly the place for boys and
girls. 1t is one of the most wonderful
places in the world and the only
place of its kind in the whole world.
| There, you might say. is the one place
that tells you what's what. There
they can measure things down SO
hne you cannot imagine. That would
be the place for chemistry bugs" of
the Junior Travel Club to go.
| They have one machine out there
| that has compressive power of more
| than two million pounds and a pulling
power of more than one million. 1t

Little Breezes. Before they had all
those little, sweet, brown nuts to
themselves; now they must divide
with all who wanted a share. and it
seemed to them that that included
everybody in the Green Forest. OF
course it didn't. but there were SO
many busy people down there on the
ground that 1T seemed that way.
But sitting up in those trees scold-
ing wouldn't put any little, sweet,
brown' n'beechnuts in their storehouses.
Besides, no one paid the least atten-
tion to their scolding. So Happy Jack
and Rusty decided that If they wanted
their share the only way to get 1t
would be to join the others on the
ground and hunt for it, and this is
just what they did. Chatterer scolded
little longer and then he, too, scam :
pered down and began to rustic about
among the dry leaves looking for
little, sweet. brown nuts. And there
was great contentment under the
beech trees because of the coming of
the Merry Little Breezes.

of growing more trees or finding sub

is pine beetle in the west that
destroys more trees than fire does

the Investigators can prove, and out

putting up a fight to kill this pine
beetle. So that is just one example

So on they rushed straight to the
beech trees. There, waiting patiently,
were the Deer family and the Grouse
family and a few other timid people
who are fond of little, sweet, brown
each other and in a very bad temper,
were Buster Bear, Mother Bear and
the cubs. Boxer and WoofWoof.

stood, and they were sorry and
ashamed that they had kept these
friends of theirs waiting. With a
rush they seized the branches of the
beech trees and shook and shook and
shook and shook with all their might.
The little. sweet, brown nuts flew out
of their little husks and ratified down
, through the branches and tumbled
and rolled among the leaves on the
ground. Back and forth rocked the
tops of the trees. Up and down and
from side to side flew the branches.
The yellow-brown leaves flew off in
clouds. and by the time the Merry
Little Breezes were SO out of breath
branch there wasn't a single little,
sweet, brown nut left clinging in it's
husk on one of those beech trees. No,
sir; there wasn't one.
Buster Bear had stopped growing.
Mother Bear had stopped grumbling.
Boxer and Woof-Woof, the cubs, had
stopped quarreling. All the bad

Merry Little Breezes.
1t was almost the middle of the
morning when one of the Merry Little
Breezes of Old Mother West Wind re-
membered the unshaken nut trees in
he Green Forest and remained the
other Merry Little BreeZes. Instantly
all stopped playing on the Green
Meadows.
What shall we do?" cried one in
dismay. I'VE should have shaken
those trees the very first thing this
morning. You know that is what Old
Mother West Wind told us to do"
We'll do it now" declared the
Merry Little Breeze who had remem-
bered. There is nothing else for US
to do. Come on"
Away raced the Merry Little
Breezes straight for the Green Forest,
and they were in such a hurry that
they brushed all the red and yellow
leaves from the tops of the maple
trees as they passed and sent them
futtering down in all directions
They would have liked to stay and

not be strange if the bureau of stand

grapes would go up and with so many
