HEALING K EYE

20 King. o King. my eye, my Eye!
III neverssee again" That's what
Silky SAID when he saw TinkersssBob
approaching him in the midst ssofr the
Forest When the other creatures
heard the name of tho /. King they
peeped from their hiding places. One
ut 4 time they saw the King, but
one by one they ventured forth to see
II their eyes told them the truth.
Sure enough they saw their King,
he whom they had looked for ;,all
winter, and they were SO glad that
they forgot the cries Of Silky the
Monkey as they ran toward him. But
Tinker Bob could greet none OF them
TIL he had done something for Silky
who was suffering from the terrible
him. - -
II will help you Silky. Come down
U Of that tree" said Tinker, and
silky came down. But when with his
other ~ he saw all Of the creatures
coming toward the King, he ran back
to the tree top and began to scream
n chatter in a peculiar way. well,
what's the matter. are you afraid Of
silky? I will help you, Igsay."
Look at all Of those creatures coming.
T can see them with my.9one. eye.msIf
they do to you what n Of them did
to me you will be a terrible looking
King. Run for your life" Tinker
Bob looked around and saw the forest
creatures coming toward him. He
was indeed surprised, but happy to
e them ALL.
These are, my friends. Silky. They
will not sdo$anyone harm. Come down
out gof..tbe tree till / heal your eye,
then you shall see who these forest
dwellers are. -, Come down. Isssay, and
l will heal your eye" 'Stlkyswanted
to be healed all right but he was
afraid of the, creatures he saw with
his one eye. After he considered it
a moment he decided to so down to
the King for it could not hurt worse
to be killed%than it did to have your
eye put out. ii
"All I want to do. Is to touch your
eye with this magic stoneTthat 4 Elk

you >see!usIi right ~ The King stood
back afttt@he touched, the. eye OF
Silky the Monkey with the Magic
Stone: Mr. Monkey winked a few
times to make sure he was all right,
then. he threw his arms about the
Kings neck and gave him a Bear Hug
that frightened all of the other crea-
lures, for they were not familiar with
Silky's ways.

Community as Whole in Better Shape
Failures of the year show that the
community as whole is in bett !.
shape financially chan was previously
estimated. There were twenty-three
C23) failures in Delaware; sevntaen
(17) in Maryland and eight (8) in Viz
ginia. In 1916 there were 80 failur $
in Delaware; 27 in Maryland, and 4
in Virginia. In 1914 there were 43
in Delaware; 6 in Maryland and 8 in
Virginia. The first quarter ending
March 81, 1914, appears to have bee I
the "banner" quarter for failures in
this section since the local Office was
opened in 1888. During this quarter
there was total of fifty (5O) failures
in this district, twenty of which were
in the city of Wilmington. The next
highest number of failures in one
quarter was from July 1 to September
30, 1905, inclusive, when there were
forty-one (4D failures of which nine
teen (19) were in Wilmington. The
smallest quarter of failures appears to
