PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
BY David Cory

Now let me see If I can remember
where we left of IN the last story. Oh
now I know Puss Junior was in the
castle Of the Giant Merry Laugh, and the
little yellow bird, whose name I've prom
ised to tell you so many times, was
there and had just told Puss that she was
the little yellow bird who had helped
him so often on his travels.
We'll" said the Giant, after strokinE
her feathers, what adventures are You
now seeking, little Sir Cat?"
TIN in search of magic herb to cure
my father" answered Puss. He has the
rheumatism and can hardly walk"
"Ah, / know where that magic herb
grows" said the Giant, land Bright
Wings shall lead you to the place."
So after little while the yellow bird
told Puss to follow her. and away they
went to look for the magic herb. And
after going for a long way they came TO
a rocky glen. where the little yellow bird
stopped.
Wen, she hoped along the ground.
looking this way and that way until
at last she came to a little door in a
big tree And when she had knocked on
and a little fairy dressed in green and
gold stood before them.
"What can 1 do for Merry Laughss
little hird?" she asked, aud then she
looked curiously at Fuss and almost
closed the door, for I guess she had never
seen a cat with red top boots before.
MY master wishes me to get the magic
herb for little Puss Junior answered
the yellow bird. And then the little fairy
laughed. for she wasn't afraid of Puss
now.
Well. after awhile, the little fairy went
to a cupboard and brought out the magic
herb and gave 1t to Puss.
"Thank you. and may I be able some
day to repay you" said Puss, and then
he and the little yellow birdA went away,
and in the next story you shall hear what
happened after that.-Copyright 1921.

LYNcHINc A TAX CHARGE.

THE Christian world hardly knows what it owes
to the brave governor of Georgia." observes the
Christian Century. He has made investigation OF
the treatment of negroes in his state, and found the
story abominable. Without waiting for any outside
interference, he has set to work to clean house. He
is able for his task. As q preacher Of civic righteous
ness he has declared we stand indicted as a people
before the world He says that unless conditions
change God and man would justly condemn Georgia
more severely than Belgium and Leopold were con-
demned for the Congo afro .ities' Making a study Ct
1sb cases Of lawiessness ~practiced against negroes, he
found that in only two of shese cases was the tradi-
tional ofense of the negro against the white rce even
alleged. In all other cases it was purely a matter Of
race prejudice working its evil will. -Four character
istic ofenses are to be charged against that section Of
the white race in Georgia which practices lawlessness
against the negro. These are %lynching, peonage, driy-
ing negroes out by organized lawiessness and individ-
ual acts Of cruelty. The governor has made an ap-
peal to the Christian pulpit within the state to re,
buke this unrighteousnes- He rightly feels that the
law unsupported by the public conscience is power
less to remedy the evils that have fouled the fair name
of Georgia. He also advocates compulsory education
for both races. Ignorance among negroes gives op.
makes cruelty possible. Certain legal reforms are
likely to come quickly as a result OF the charge that
peonage is being ~practiced. Peonage can be stopped
by changing the laws relating to debt The COVER
nor shrewdly proposes that a county which permits
a lynching shat. pay a money penalty. When the tax
payers have to support fatherless family, they will
perhaps pause in the Joyous lynching bee to think
things over"
