Mrs. Bear Changes Her Mind
By THORNTON w. BURGESS.

The point Of view. it seems to me,
Depends on who is up the tree
Farmer Browns Boy.
Was Farmer Browns boy scared ?
Ask Sammy Jay; he saw. Ask Chat
terer the Red Squirrel; he saw. Ask
Blacky the Grow: he saw Ask Peter
Rabbit: he was there. Ask Reddy Fox
he was watching.
Farmer Browns boy was as badly
scared a boy as ever drew breath.
Never was timid little Whitefoot the
Wood Mouse. whose daily life is one
scare after another, worse scared.
Never was Peter Rabbit more thor
oughly frightened: If he hadn't known
before. Farmer Browns Boy knew
now exactly how the little people Of
the Green Forest and the Green
Meadows feel when cornered by an
enemy from whom they can expect no
mercy.
You see. Farmer Browns boy was
up a tree. and at the foot of it, look
ing. up at him with wicked-looking
little eyes, red with anger, was a
great Brown Bear. 1t was Mrs. Buster
Bear. 1t had been a lucky thing for
him that Farmer Browns boy had
been near a tree which he could
climb. AS it was. he had reached it
Red Squirrel could have scrambled up
that tree much faster than did Farmer
Browns boy.
He didn't even look down until he
was halfway mp. Every second he
expected to feel the claws of Mrs.
Mrs. Bear was standing up At the foot
OF the tree as il trying to make up
her mind whether or not to climb up
after him. She was growing way

Your Chairs.
Are the chairs in your house all COM
Portable?

Are the chairs in your house all COM
Portable?
They ought to be. Really. just that.
For if they aren't comfortable, you
ought to get rid of them.
To begin with. there is no use buying
an uncomfortable chair. You are al
ways at complete liberty to sit in any
chair you may be thinking Of buying.
And if it isn't comfortable. it doesn' I
live up to the first requirements of a
chair.
But if you have once bought a chair
that is uncomfortable, then don't rest
until You have got rid of it To be
sure. you may be able to make it more
comfortable with cushions Of some sort.
Otherwise, discard it. We hope the day
has gone by when We put our uncom-
Portable chairs in our maids rooms.
1t ought to have gone by.
1t would be quite all right if we were
mona rchs supreme, like Louis XIV. who
in the great days Of Versailles sat
himself in an armchair, while his
daughters sat on stools and his sons
and the rest of the courtiers stood
about him. What mattered 1t to him
if there was only one comfortable chair?
He was sure to get 1t. and etiquette
prescribed standing for most of the
rest of the court in his presence. any
way.

were deep. grumbly. rumbly growIs.
and they gave Farmer Browns boy
prickly feeling all over.
He yelled at Mrs. Bear. for some

the human voice. Mrs Bear simply
growled more than ever. and her little

feel Inundated in the presence Of

In Chicago, where this method Of
teaching has been adopted in all pub

luickened and truancy has declined.
The laggard finds his task much east

delights in the motion pictures which
supplement what they have learned
from their booi.s.
Thus the schools Of the future, by
applying visual methods to instruc-

public buildings, libraries, water sup

Grafton among business interests,
progressiveness, civil organizations,
pull-together spirit, and all other fea-
lures that make a town desirable.
What can we say for ourselves? We
may say that we have all the induce
ments, and if we have we should be
able to back up our statements with
fact We can do it in a measure, but
we must do it in full if we desire to
become bigger and better. Let us
take account Of stock in our commun-
lty and if we find anything lacking
let us put our latent energies to work
to make this community all that can
be desired as business or residen-
tial city.
