l. Jack and Janet to Perky Squirrel.
at is a finer day for work an
/ swered Perky Squirrel, hunting for nuts
TO store away in his hollow tree. There
will be plenty of time for play when
the SHOWS of winter cover the ground.
Cant you stop your work TO snlay
a game with us?" Jack asked: ferEy
Squirrel sat up straight blinking Mo
snappy eyes at the children.
II can stop long enough to ask you
n riddle" he replied. Jack and Janet
liked that answer, for they, enjoyed try
ing their wits on riddles. Perky SOUR
rel chuckled as he asked his riddie
'When is work play and play work;
Jack and Janet put their wits TO work
at once on that riddle, but. although
they wrinklcd up their forehcads and
thought very seriously, they couldh
think of the answer.
Perky Squirrel gigGled and chuckIed
when he saw how hard their brains were
struggling with his riddle. H..
while yOu are trying to selve that
riddle, I'll teach you game. he said
''Do YOU see that hole in the trunk ot
tbe hollow trpe?" Yes. Jack and Janet
saw the hole in the hollow tree. IT was
the hole in which Perky Squirrel had
been storing the nuts hp found on the
ground. 1.-THE game i for YOU chlldr'n
to see how many nuts you can thro"
into that hole. =,
Jack and Janet thought that would
be n most interesting game. Jack picked
IN a nut from the ground and threw II
at the hole. The nut hit III" sStdc OF
the tree and bounded back. Jack trI"d
again. and this time the nut went pIop
into the hole. ,,
Janet" So Janet picked up nut and
at the first trial she threw it right
into the hole in the tree.
"Very good" Chuckled Perky Squir-
rel. Now let us have a race between
you two children. | will keep count, OF
how many each throws into the hole.
Jack and Janet were eager for the
game. so they scurricd around finding
nuts and throw them into the hoIr
In the tree. They soon became such
good shots that rs quickly as they
found n nut they would throw it int"
the tree at the first attempt.
Perky Squirrel kept count by draw
ing a mark in the ground on III" I'it
side or the ire" l"T 'd'A IuI b.l 'N". -
by Jack and a mark on the right side
for each NUT thrown in by Janet. He
seemed to be having even moro fun out
Of the game than tho children, for he
kept chuckling to himself all the time.
ID Soon Jack and Janet had cleaned
up all the nuts near the tree and they
went farther and farther away. gather
ing up nuts by handfuls and bringing
they back to be thrown into the hole.
1t was merry race. At one minute
Jack would be ahead according to the
count Of Perky Squirrel, and then Janet
would 60 ahead.
So they played the game until they
had gathered up every nut for long

SEA FRONT HOTELS
THREATEN RATE WAR
Atlantic City Managers in Dis.
pute Over Credit for Start
ing Reduction.

Special Despatch to THE NEW YoRK HERALD.
ATLANTIC CITY, Aug. 22.-The rate
cutting announcement made by the
Breakers Hotel has drawn the fire of
William F. Banks. manager Of the AM
bassador Hotel, and the outlook tonight
Is that there will be a merry battle
among the large beach front hotels. The
Ambassadors manager takes issue with
the Breakers statement in that 1t seemed
to imply the Ambassador had stood out
against reduction in rates.
Mr.. Banks in a formal statement
issued tonight declares that the direc-
tors OF the Ambassador Hotel system.
which includes the New York Ambas-
sador, voted on August l to reduce rates
In the Ambassador here from 25 to 33 1-3
per cent, effective September Is. All
reservations for rooms at the Ambassa-
dor for the autumn and winter have been
made on the basis referred to, Mr.. Banks
says.
80 far as the Ambassador is con-
cerned," Mr.. Banks said. mo other hotel
suggested that It cut rates and the ap-
parent inference in the Breakers state
ment that the Ambassador refused to join
in movement to bring about reduced
rates is without foundation. The AM
bassador is not In any association that
discusses rates and there Is no such Or
ganization In the city,
The Breakers management protested
that It's statement has been misunder-
stood by the Ambassador. 1t referred
to a meeting of hotel men held recently
and at which 1t was suggested to make
special reductions for the fall and winter
business
