 "Chugarum!. said Grandfather Frog In his great deep voice from the bulrushes. "One never knows how great their blessings arc until they have been lost and found again. :
 The bulrushes nodded. as if they, too. were thinking of this. You see. their feet were once more in the cool water. Paddy the Beaver seeme1 to understand just how everyone felt and he smiled to himself as he saw how happy these new friends of his were.

 "Oh, that's all right" replied Jerry lfuskrat. who was now very proud Of his big cousin. : T hope now that you see how nice it Is here you will stay and make your home here.
 Paddy the Beaver looked back at the great black shadow which he knew was the Green Forest. Way over in the middle of it he heard the hunting call Of Hooty the Owl. Then he looked out over the Green Mead- ows and from way over on the far side of it sounded the bark of Reddy Fox, and 1t was answered by the deep voice of Bowser the Hound up in Farmer Browns dooryard. For some reason that last sound made Paddy the Beaver shiver q little. just as the voice of Hooty the Owl made

The balmy spring air had put everyone at the office in good humor -even those whose salaries had been cut.
 Talbot the bookkceper. was boast ing about his little home in the country. You ought to come out there one night and see it, Howard" \ he said.
 I'm ready" he replied ~When do you want me ?''
 Why not tonight?'
 Its a go.''
 I called up Dot and told her very abruptly that r was going home with a friend at the office and would spend the night at his house in the country.
 It would be the first time we had been separated at night since our would ask a lot of questions and I wanted her to have the pleasure of trying to answer them. was surprised to find that Tal- bot, in spite of living in the suburbs. rot home nearly as quickly from the office as could.

Paddy wasn't afraid of Hooty or of Reddy Fox, but Bowser's great voice was new to him. and somehow the very sound of 1t made him afraid. You see, the Green Meadows were so strange and open that he didn't feel at all at home. for he dearly loves the deepest part of the Green Forest.

Pour onto platters and put in the sun to finish cooking. The fruit should be covered with mosquito netting while summing.

Pineapples and strawberries are usually in market and at their best and cheapest atothe same time. Canned together either just as sauce or as preserves the combina- ton is delicious. And to make the. rather expensive fruit go further add from one-fourth to one-half as much rhubarb as there is other fruit. The rhubarb does not change the flavor of the fruit unless over one-half Is used.
 Canned Strawberries and Pineapple
 Four quarts strawberries, 1 large pineapple, 4 cups diced rhubarb. one-half the weight of all the fruit in sugar.
 Pare pineapple and remove eyes. Cut in small pieces. Put sugar and pineapple with just enough water to prevent burning in preserving ket- tie. Cook until fruit is quite tender. Add berries and rhubarb and cook 10 minutes longer. The rhubarb and strawberries will cook in the same length of time. Put into ster- ilized jars and seal. The fruit and sirup must be boiling when put in the cans and the cans must be filled absolutely full and the sealing done quickly.
 Cold Pack Method Cook pineapple in boiling water till nearly tender and fill each can one- fourth full of pineapple Use the wa ter to make the sirup. Use one half the weight of the fruit in sugar and cups of water for each pound of sugar. Boil 10 minutes. Put rhu- barb in boiling water and let stand one minute.

llBERJN CALENDAR PROPOSES WIDE IMPROVEMENT IN
 PRESENT SYSTEM

A year divided into thirteen monthly periods of exactly four weeks each; each week and month beginning on Monday and ending 0 ! sunday and each day of the week falling on the same day of the month each year-just alike for . million years. is the proposal em- braced in bill recently introduced in Congress by Representative Schall of Minnesota
 The measure embraces a new type of calendar known as the LibertN Calendar which its Sponcers claim will rectify all the defects in our present calendar and greatly simplify time computations Among the ad- Nantages claimed for the new calen- dar is that every day of every month would fall on certain day of the week and one would always know The day of the month as easily as he now knows the day of the week For instance every month the lSt, Sth, 5th. and 22nd would always be Monday; the2nd 9th. 18th. arG 23rd would always fall on Tuesday: the 3rd. 10th. 17th. 24th on Wednesday. end so on. No mental effort would be req"!red to determine just the day Of the month at any tine and the saving in time is apparent. Good Friday and Easter Sunday would all s,: come on certain fixed dates and the Fourth of July, Armistice pa". Thanksgiving Day and Christmas would all come on Thursdav each year. Each month would have ex- actly 2S days and exactly four weeks New Year day would become an in dependent legal holiday. not include ]! in any week or month Another in dependent legal holiday called Leap Year Day is provided for leap years and would come between June and July The remaining 364 days would ft hlNitcu III |" Aioi'H7 'A SNo't'' four weeks each. every month com mencing on Monday and ending with Sunday. as each week of seven days would begin on Monuay an d end Sunday.
