A BEDTIME STORY
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS

ly Mother Bear had spent the win
ter there. She might be there now.
Lets go over and see" said
Boxer to Wool Wool.
Wool Wool was quite willing. She
shuffled along behind Boxer, and
they headed straight for the old
windfall which had once been their
home. When they came in sight
of if they stopped and sat up to
study it. 1t looked just : s they re-
membered it. They could see the en-
trance through which as little Bears
they had gone in and out so often.
It looked inviting. They shuffled a
little nearer. and again sat UP to
look They wanted to go in there,
yet they had a queer feeling that 1t
would be better not to.
Finally Boxer put his nose down
and shifted at the entrance. He
knew instantly that Mother Bear
was inside. He could smell her. He
looked at Wool Wool a little doubt
fully Wool Wool put her nose
down and smelled. Then she looked
at Boxer a little doubtfully. There
wasn't the least doubt that Mother
Bear was in that snug bedroom they
knew so we'll underneath the wind
fall. Somehow they felt more lone
some than ever. They wanted
Mother Bear. Yes, sir, they wanted
Mother Bear.
Lets so in and see if she is'
awake" whispered Boxer.
"Wouldn't it be better to wait
until she comes out? Wool Wool
whispered back.

Little Rock Khan
Opposes ''Kamelia;;'
Wizard Is Silent

HOT SPRINGS, Ark, May H.
Dr. H. W. Evans, imperial wizard
of the knights of the Ku Klux Khan,
declined to comment today on action
taken by the Little Rock khan in
opposing the organization there of
branch of the "Kamelia," a women's
secret society founded by Colonel
William J. Simmons, emperor of the
Ku Klux Khan.
DR.. Evans reiterated former state
ments, however, that the Kamelia in
no way was affiliated with the khan,
but that he believed the day would
come when there will be a women's
organization with which the khan
will cooperate.
The Kamelia is in no way affil-
lated with or auxiliary to the K. K.
K, or is there any likelihood that it
ever will be affiliated" DR.. Evans
declared. Il. understand the Ka-
melia is a privately owned corpora

An Awakening in the Green Forest

An Awakening in the Green Forest
There comes a time in which no
other
Can quite supply the place of
mother. Boxer.
Spring had come to the Green
Forest as well as to the Old Or
chard, the Green Meadows, the dear
Old Briar Patch and all the other
places. 1t had awakened sleepers
there just as Johnny Chuck had
been awakened, and two of these
sleepers were Boxer and Wool
Wool, the twins of Buster Bear.
Now that spring awakening was a
strange experience for Boxer and
Wool Wool. You see they had not
slept away the winter with their
mother as they had the winter be-
fore. When it had come time to
go to bed Mother Bear had told
them that they couldn't sleep with
her, but must find a home of their
own.
They hadn't known what to make
of it, For a while it had quite up
set them. They had been quite un-
happy over it. But Mother Bear had
made it very clear that she meant
exactly what she said. And so the
twins had scraped some leaves into
big hole under the roots of an
upturned tree, and had there gone
to sleep. OF course, the snow had
covered their bedroom with a deep,
white blanket. and they had been
very comfortable there even with
out their mother. Because they had
slept most of the time they had
not missed her.
But when spring had come and
they had awakened and come out of
their winter home, they had missed
| their mother. Boxer wouldn't have
admitted it, but it was so. They
were big now, about half grown
| AS a matter of fact they felt them
selves quite grown up. Neverthe
less they did wish Mother Bear was
there to show them where to look
for something to eat. They were
rather cross. They were ready tt
quarrel with each other over every
little thing. You know some folks
are apt to be cross when they frs
wake up.
That first day they didn't dc
much. They shuffled around, no
going very far from their bedroom
and they went back into it. The
next day they went little further
Boxer remembered the big windfal
under which they had been born
and which for long time had beer
their home with Mother Bear. ]
