Madam Duck waddled slowly along,
and just as Mr. Fox thought she had
reached good position for him to make
the attack n brisk wind began to blow,
waving the tree branches and twigs
30 hard that it shook from its hiding
place the shiny tin spoon Jimmy Crow
had brought there, and down 1t iell,
spoon part first, and struck Mr.. Fox right
on the end of his nose.
The point of the tin spoon was rather
sharp, and when ii struck MIR. FOX
was sure it was a shot from gun, and
without waiting to find out more about
it he made n dash for place OF safety
which he knew about not far away.
OF course he scared Madam Duck
and her children nearly out of their wits,
for they plainly saw him when he ran,
and back to the pond they waddlcd and
were swimming away before Mr.. Coon
recovered from the surprise for of course
he saw or heard nothing to frightcn him
away.
He did wonder what had sent MIR.
Fox off 10 such hurry, and now that all
was quiet, he determined to find out,
for Mr.. Coca is of a rather inquisitivc turn
of mind
Very carefully he crept to the spot
where Mr.. Fox had been waiting, and
there on the ground he saw the shiny
Tin spoon He did no know how II
got there, or that it had been the thing
that had frightened MIR Fox, for Mr.
Coon was very, very fond Of bright
objects and could not think anyone would
be afraid of one He picked it up and
trotted off for home, quite satisfied with
his prize, even if he was hungry. So while
it was an i'll wind that blew for Jimmy
Crow because he lost his spoon and for
Mr. Fox because he lost his dinner it was
a good wind for Madam Duck and her
children, and also for Mr. Coon, who
carried off the prize.

ACT WELL YOUR PART

Our happiness in this life depends
not so much on circumstances and
surroundings as in our determined eff
orts to do our best in all conditions in
which we are placed, Our common
heritage is more or less allied to
sorrows and pain, but we have within
ourselves the anLidote-the sunshine of
the heart that will alleviate, if not re.
move many Of our troubles. But we
persistently reject the means of happi.
ness that, lie within our reach, by
Ignoring present small pleasures in
hopes of enjoying greater ones in the
future good time coming, which always
keeps just ahead, and is unattanable.
We cultivate little cares till they some
times attain enormous growth by con
stantly dwelling on them and dolefully
rehearsing them to our friends when
we should do our best to rise above
them. In the most difficult and trying
conditions there will often be bright.

Don't we get pretty tired Of hearing
the continued wall Of those people who
fancy themselves misunderstood?
Haven't most of US suffered from that
fancled though dreadful malady of
being misunderstood? But after all,
aren't our wrongs a great deal on the
same PATTERN Yes, the wrongs are all
just about the same. The difference
arises in the way we deal with them.
! Don't we sometimes get frghtfully
out of patience at the walters who sit
around whining about what they woulG
love to have or do if only life would
give them fair chance. And when
we advise them to stir up a little en-.
ergy and get what they want, they look
at US reproachfully and softly sigh,
which leaves us more out OF patience
than we were before. You know there
is no use arguing with that kind Of a
person.
1t takes struggle to win things in
this life and you can't get much with.
out it, Sometimes we think others
have more to start with than we have.
but it is only by struggle that they
make even the start worth while.
Take the son OF millionaire. You
might say he has a fine start but did
you ever see one who proved himself
worth while without struggle? tie
has either TO fight his own inclination
TO lie down on the job, custom and
family traditions, or his fathers ideas
OF what he should do. Otherwise he'll !
turn out TO be the ne'er.do-well that
most of them are.
1t seems that those who have to fight |
to live have the easiest time after all |
to make their lives count for some
thing. They have that primal instinct
of self preservation to aid them which |
the rich man does not have. lie must =
constantly fight his inclination for in
activity, an inclination which would |
come to the best Of US were in his sit
uation.
So let those who are bewailing their
lot remember that they can win moth
ing without a struggle, and if they
want to claim the winnings they must
do their own struggling.

WHEN WE DESERVE TT
BY Bert lesion TaYlor

Let us have peace and thy blessing,
Lord OF the wind and the rain,
When we shall cease from expressing
From all injustice refrain;
When we hate falsehood and spurn IL;
When we are men among men.
Let us have peace when we earn it,
Never an hour till then.
Let US have rest in thy garden,
Lord OF The rock and the green,
When there Is nothing TO pardon,
When we are whitened and clean,
Purge us OF skulking and treason,
Help us TO put them away
We snail have rest in thy season;
Till then the heat Of the fray
Let us have peace in thy pleasure,
Lord OF the cloud and the sun;
Grant to US aeons OF leisure,
When the long battle is done.
Now we have only begun IL;
Stead us-we ask nothing more.
Peace rest--but not till we've won
it.
Never an hour before.

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.--Great busi-
ness interests, Cooking solely toward
profits and the amassing of immense
fortunes" are waging a national and
intensive battle to beat down wages
below decent standard OF living
and to smash the labor unions,
Frank l.. Walsh, former associate
chairman OF the National War Labor
Board told the International News
Service today
"The drive Is being pressed despite
the fact that three-fourths OF all IN

TROUBLE FOR HARDING.
Mr.. Walsh asserted that prominent
employers in appearing before the
Industrial Conference Board had de-
ciared they would stand for in
creased wages during the war but
afterwards would get back to pre-
var basis"
He asserted wage cuts now being
made could not be justified on low

that "bcforc the Harding administrn-

do you think. organized labor
should oppose such move?"
Il do Mr.. Walsh replied. There is
no industry during the war which in

cost of labor as added on to the price
