PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
BY David Cory.

You remember in the last story the
Gnome King promised to give Puss a
delicious drink If he would only wait
and not touch the water In the brook.
Well, Puss followed his little friend
along a grassy patch until they came to
a small clearing, where tho blue sky
sky overhead smiled down upon a mon
strous watermelon. standing up on end
the thick vine supporting 1t like a strong
round barrel staye. A big wooden spigot
protruded from one side, over which
leaned a gnome, who had climbed upon
a part Of tho vine In order TO reach the
handle AS he lifted q Goblin Cup to
catch the drops Of delicious looking pink

KEEPING HOUSE WITH THE HOOPERs

Their duties than these she had refused to
take, saying that the maximum amount Of
time that she could spare from her home
would permit her to do this much and
no more
On Friday afternoons, while her mother
was at the club, Helen entertained a
little coterie of six schoolgirl friends
who met with her to pool their contribu-
lions to charity. Mrs. Hooper was very
anxious that her children should grow up
with sense of obligation as individuals.
Even IL it were the tiniest mite she
wished them to feel that they were con-
tributing to the support of church, Civ
ing something in the name Of charity or
PHILANTHROPY, and taking their small
share II the community entertaining that
keeps it normal and harmonious. 1t was
only occasionally that the Hooper family
could make a cash contribution to charity
out of their budget, but other ways had
been devised by Mrs. Hooper so that
each one OF them had some little obliga-
lions along a definite line. She found Oh
investigation that home for crippled
children in the city was in constant need
cs Of small articles that
group of girls could make with their
needles and Helen and her little friends
had pledged this service to the matron.
Today they were busy hemming pocket
handkerchiefs that were to fill their big
box that would contain dozens of these
seful little articles by Christmas when
it would be sent to the crippled children's
home with their greetings. They were
having their cocoa AMI cookies that Hele
had served, when Mr.. Hopper, having re-
-rieved Betty from the home Of her
grandmother, returned from the club.
The three meals for Friday were:

In Gnomelsnd. Next year I'm going to
have even bigger one"
How do you make them grow so
Target" inquired Puss, hoping at the
same time he would have courage, or
shall we say politeness, to refuse an
other glass of the precious fluid should
he be asked to try another gobletful.
won't you have another2' asked the
proud owner, but before Puss could re-
ply his friend, the Gnome King, an
swered for him
''Not another drop! A second goblet
and you would be so hungry you could
eat stones"
And this was the truth, as we shall
see later, when Puss tried to satisfy
the pangs of hunger which now already
began to torture him.
"Come with me-" cried the Gnome
King, I'VE must eat"
Puss eagerly followed him, and they
pressed forward at a rapid walk until
they came to a queer little hut from
which issued a most delicious odor OF
sponge cake. Around the door or, more
properly, what appeared to be one but
which was in fact but a small opening
stood a number Of COLLINS, evidently
awaiting orders from some one- AS Puss
drew near, he saw that instead of hut
it was really a huge oven in which was
being baked something very delicious.
"Minions" called out the Gnome King
'is not the Goblin Cake ready?"
-'Yes, Sire" responded several voices
| and in another moment the oven wa
taken apart and removed from the most
delicious looking sponge cake Puss had
ever seen. A SOFT warm, brown color
made 1t most tempting to the eyes, and
the delicious smell made him so anxious
to commence eating that he could with
difficulty restrain himself.
Help yourself" cried his little friend
and without a moments hesitation, Puss
pulled off a piece of cake and eagerly
commenced.
"Begone" commanded the Gnome King
TO the small bakers who still stood
around, curiously watching their cake
disappearing down the mouth Of a cat
as rapidly as its owner could cram it IN
''begone, and leave US to enjoy the cake
alone"
And next time you shall hear what
happened to Puss after eating too much
of that wonderful sponge cake.-Copy:

EVERYBODY is A FUNNY ROGUE
In Gays .Beggar's Opera Due at Murat

When John Gay, in 1927, wrote 1.-THE
Beggar's OPERA" which comes to the
Murat beginning next Tuesday night, it's
wit, satire and rollicking humor gave 1t a
unique position among light opera COM
positions on the English stage which
position it has continued to hold through
all of its various and sundry revivals.
1t Is as distinctly appealing to the
lovers of music and humor of the Gill
pertain vein today as it was 100 or 200
years ago.
The part of Polly Peachum was first
played by Lavinia Fenton and for a cen
fury and half nearly every comedy
actress who could sing has never been
satisfied until she has appeared in the
role Of Polly.
Sylvia Nellie, who is appearing In the
role Of Polly at the Murat, played the
same part in Mr.. Nigel Piayfairs Lon
don production, as also did the other
members of the cast now here. Both
her work and that of the other artists
