having whitefoot for neighbor.
Few Of the little people of the Green
Forest are more timid than Timny
the Flying Squirrel. but here was one
beside whom Timmy actually felt
bold. 1t was such new feeling that
Timmy enjoyed it.
SO it was that in the dusk of early
evening just after the Black Shadows
had come creeping out from the
Purple Hills across the Green Mead
ows and through the Green Forest
these two little neighbors would

dead stump In which he was now
living. He didn't dare to. He wanted
to be where at the first sign Of
danger he could scamper back there
to safety. Timmy would go some dis
He liked to be where he could watch
and talk with Whitefoot. You see,
Timmy is very much like other peo-
pie: he likes to gossip little.
One evening Whitefoot had found
it hard work to get enough to fill his
tie further and little further from
that old stump. Finally he was
further from it than he had ever
been before Timmy had filled his
stomach, and from near the top of a
tree was watching Whitefoot. Sud-
|
Black Shadow f1oated right over the
tree in which Timmy was sitting, and
stopped on the top of a tall, dead
tree. 1t was Hooty the Owl. and it
was simply good fortune that Timmy
happened to see him. Timmy kept
safe as long as he kept perfectly still.
He knew that Hooty didn't know that
he was there. Unless he moved. those
great eyes Of Hooty's. wonderful as they
were. would not see him.
last aeen i1ph1 " rhere he Was ~aa
picking out seeds from a pine cone
on the ground. The trunk of a tree
was between him and Hooty the Owl.
But Timmy knew that Whitefoot
hadn't seen Hooty. and that any
minute S snss s nshs ere. he out ua fr0n noosy
would see him. and silently. as a
shadow would swoop down and catch
him. What was to be done?
ITS no business Of mine. said
Timmy to himself "Whitefoot must
look out for himself. It is no bust
will fly away before Whitefoot moves.
/ don't want anything to happen to
Whitefoot, but II something does 1t
will be his own fault; he should keep
better watch"
For a few minutes nothing hap
nened. Then Whitefoot finished the
last seed in that cone and started to
look for more. Timmy knew that in a
moment Hooty would see Whitefoot.
What do you think Timmy did? He
jumped. Yes, sir, he jumped. Down.
down, down, straight past the tree
on which sat Hooty the Owl Timmy
sailed. Hooty saw him. OF course.
He couldn't help but see him. He
spread his great wings and was after
Jimmy in an instant. Timmy struck
near the foot of a tree and without
wasting a second darted around to
Hooty was already reaching for him.
In the tree ran Timmy and jumped
again. Again Hooty was too late.
And SO Timmy led Hooty the Owl
away from Whitefoot the Wood Mouse.

After some time of this sort Of work
Craig led gradually up to request
for a naturalization of the control
She said she did not feel strong
enough. and Harrington put in a hasty
word that he, too. could feel that
there was something WORKING
against them" But kennedy was
importunate. and at last she consent
ed to see II John" would do some
rapping. even If he could not ma
terialize.
Kennedy asked to be permitted to
put the questions.
Are you the John, who appears
to Mr.. Vandam every night at 12:30?'
Rap! rap! rap. came the faint reply
from the cabinet. Or rather it SEEM
ed to me to come from the floor near
the cabinet, and perhaps to be trifle
muff1ed by the black carpet:
Are you in communication with
Mrs. Vandam?"
Rap! rap! rap!
Can she be made to rap for us?"
Rap! rap!
will you ask her a question and
spell out her answer
Rap! rap! rap!
Craig paused a moment to frame
the question, then shot it out point
blank: Does Mrs. Vandam know now
in the other world whether any one in
this room substituted a morphine
capsule for one of those ordered by
her three days before she died? Does
she know whether the same person
has done the same thing with those
later ordered by Mr.. Vandam?"
John" seemed considerably per-
turbed at the mention Of capsules. 1t
was a long time before any answer
was Forthcoming. Kennedy was
about to repeat the question when a
faint sound was heard.
Rap!-
Suddenly came a wild scream. 1t
was such a scream as l had never
heard before in my life. 1t came
as though a dagger had been thrust
into the heart of Mrs. Pepper.

Occasionally Timmy the Flying
Squirrel came over to visit White
foot the Wood Mouse. If Whitefoot
was in his house he always knew
when Timmy arrived. He would hear
a soft thump down near the bottom
of the tall stump in which he made
his home. He would know instantly
that that thump was made by Timmy
striking the foot ofsthe stump after
a long jump from the top of a tree.
whitefoot would poke his head out of
his doorway and there, sure enough.
would be Timmy scrambling up to-
ward him.
whitefoot had grown to admire
Timmy with all his might. 1t seemed
to him that Timmy was the most
wonderful of all the people he knew.
You see, there was no one of the
others who could jump as Timmy
could. Timmy on his part enjoyed

How Many Morons in the United States

lie schools. This leaves 31,000 without any special supervision. How many of these "morons" are In the United States Is hard to figure undoubtedly, however, several hun. dred thousands.
 The word moron comes from the Greek moros-fool. Use of the term was found convenient with a dawning recognition of the existence of a great border line class of mentally deficient persons not up to par, but whose men. tai defects are not so conspicuous as to lead to their classification among i'm. beetles and idiots.
 The defective, who is left to shift for himself, Is usually a liability to society,"
 Mental deficiency and insanity are two entirely distinct problems. Insan. ity is mental disease which in at least 25 per cent of the cases is cur. able and in perhaps 40 per cent pre- ventable. Mental deficiency is a defi- nite lack of mental capacity and is usually inherited. It cannot be cured. Science cannot add what nature has | omitted.

Besides caring for the private rooms, he assists in the service of ushering in those who in the morning are received in audience ir the state rOoms,- downstairs.
 With the exception of Malvestiti and the two private secretaries, Pope Plus made very few changes after his election. When he notified his desire that the four secret participant cham berlains, "camerieri segreti partici- panti," who attend during the week, should retain their posts held during Benedict's pOntificate, he also added that his own particular secretary, Mon- signor Gonfalonieri, should be made chamberlain. It was pointed out to him that there had always been four chamberlains, never five. "Never mind," said the pope, i've will make my secretary, not the fifth, but the first one"

 In this way Pope Plus has sur rounded himself with assistants who have proved their efficiency in the years they have been with him. He has chosen these men from his own province, LOmbardy.

SEA LION BOARDS SEAPLANE

 fuses to Get of.

San Diego. Cal.-A bold sea lion took charge of a seaplane, No. 8. on destroyer range near the Coronado Islands recently.
 The seaplane. in charge of Ensign Edward Dolieck, alighted on the water to wait for the destroyers to take their position for practice, and the side door of the aft compartment was open to let the gases from the engine escape. Suddenly the ensign and his crew were surprised to hear a re- sounding "woOf' from the compart- ment. In it they found a sea lion weighing some 75 pounds which had evidently foundered up the incline leading to the compartment and de cided to remain.
 The crew tried to put the sea lion off, but he resented that attempt. fighting bravely, and bit one of the crew In the arm. Then the crew de cided to let him stay and piled life preservers on him to keep him quiet. In that position he was taken back to North Island to serve as mascot for the seaplane force.

British Women Find Mates in Canada

naturally Is one of the most important branches of the executive department. Throughout England, Scotland, and Wales there Is an organized prOpa- ganda by lecturers who travel con- stantly through the counties. The chief of this division Is Miss Mary V. Burnham of Ottawa. who served in France as nurse.
 The lecturers agree to place the girls in jobs in Canada. Owing to the industrial depression in Canada now. all positions offered are in domestic service. The provinces are ready to agree to pay the passage and neces- sary expenses of the girls, the money to be repaid on easy terms from the wage received.
 A Canadian official takes the girl from her home to the port of embarka- tion. An official conductress accom- panies the girls on the ship. living with them throughout the journey and continuing with them in special train from Quebec to their employment.
 Ontario reports that 95 per cent of the girls whose expenses to Canada were paid in advance met their obli. gatiOns on time.
