 Home Is home. Go where you will You'iI find 1t calling for you still.
 s Mrs. Quack.
 Now that Mir. and Mrs. Quack the Mallard Ducks had arrived with their children, Peter Rabbit simply could not leave the pond of Paddy the Beaver. He knew he ought to re- turn to the dear Old Briar-patch. He knew that little Mrs. Peter would worry and worry all the time he was away. Yes, he ought to go home But he was so curious to know all about the Quacks and their adventures that he simply couldn't leave. So Peter decided to spend the night over in the Green Forest near Paddy's pond.
 He would have sat and talked with the Quacks all night, but they were tired and hungry and after short time went to look for supper along the shore of the pond. and then. in the blackest of the Black Shadows. tucked their heads under their wings for the first comfortable sleep they had known since leaving their home in the Far North.
 Peter was on hand on the shore of I0t DoHQ OIi6I anu Cdiit ifTAt iuOfH- ing, and after breakfast Mir. and Mrs. Quack swan over and came out on the shore near him while the young Quacks explored Paddy's pond.

 Yes" replied Mrs. Quack. Tt was the best journey we have made since I can remember. I don't know why. but there were no terrible guns any where along the way (Of course. Mrs. Quack had no way of knowing that men had made a new and wise law forbidding the shooting of birds On the way to their summer homes.) "The result was we were feeling fine when we reached our home. and went right to housekeeping"
 Tell me about that home" begged Peter. "where was it7"

NEW YORKERSPAY
 TRIBUTE ID BOTH
 DEAD AND LIVING
ThrongS Cheer Diaz as He Leaves Cathedral Where Services Are Held for
 Nameless Martyr
By Associated Press

New York. November 4.-New York CTS paid tribute to two of Italys war heroes, one living and one dead
 At St. Patricks cathedral a throng of men and women overflowing into four streets bowed their heads in homage to that nations unknown war dead as Archbishop Patrick J.. Hayes celebrated solemn requiem high mass for the aepese of the soul of the nameless martyr, who at the same hour was being buried with a nations highest honors in Rome.
 The city's admiration for the liy- ing was made manifest when multi tudes lining Fifth avenue. sent up thunderous cheers as General Ar mando Diaz, commander of Italy's vic torious arnJies. was escorted to and from the cathedral.
 Lopg before the time set for the service the great edifice was filled to capacity and Italian war veterans in uniform acting as ushers, had to call on police reserves to handle the immense crowds.
 Outside, Italian veterans and bat talions of American soldiers and ma rines in field uniform and trench helmets were drawn up at attention.
 A storm of "vivas" and American "hurrahsn greeted the approach ot the hero of the Piave,. who rode in a flaw draped automobile with Wit torrior Rolandi Ricci. the Italian ann bassador; Senator Scahnazer of the Italian delegation to the armament conference, and Mayor Hylan.
 The martial atmosphere inside the great building was as marked as without On either side of the aisle through which General Diaz strode to reach his pew were doughboys in close order, who snapped to present, arms."
 Although the unknown soldiers body lay in casket on the other side of the Atlantic. catafalque, modelled after that of Pope Leo NH, surmounted by flag covered cof- fin, stood near General Diaz's seat, and it was toward this. that Monsig- nor Michael J. Laveile extended his hand as he delivered the eulogy of the dead.
 "There is one thought and hope and prayer animating the hearts of the world today" he said, speaking first in Italian and then in English.
 That is this-that the war in which this unknown soldier fell may be the last between civilized nations"
 In the ceremony or eieVaLlon Which preceded the sermon, the usual sii- very peal of bell was replaced by equally clear notes of a muted bugle' and saluted with their rifles.
 At the close of the mass. absolu- tion was pronounced at the foot of the catafalque, following which the bugle again was heard, this time in taps" the requiem of the battlefield
 Then a military hand stationed near the altar played the American and Italian national anthems and the service was over.

 Mir. Quack nodded his handsome head. That is just what she did." said he. You never have seen a softer, warmer nest. and every feather came from her own breast"
 Peter looked at Mrs. Quack. "Din't pulling them out hurt@ he asked.
 Not very much" replied Mrs. Quack. But 1t wouldn't have made any difference if 1t had" she added
 But why did you go so far for homer" asked Peter There must be lots and lots of just such little ponds not so far away"
 There are." replied Mrs. Quack, but none of them would be home. Home is where you were born, and MT. Quack and I were born way up on the shore of that little pond. We never could feel quite the same any where else. We just have to go back there each spring. It is the dearest little pond in all the Great World I-I hated to leave it.
