"yyhat on earth are you looking at

Very early in the morning Mister

snatching away the night mists.

But l saw it advertised on a fierce

awfully hungry. Gobble, gobble. COB

"Yes, but what does the early

the little turkey boy. openeing one eye
and then shutting it again.
But like shot he opened it again.

and stared and stared.

MiSsez Gobbler looked. And she
couldn't keep her face straight at
what she saw. She sniggered, so she
did. She sniggered out loud.
And that woke up all the other
turkeys and after they had had one
look. each one turned away his face
and staggered and sniggered.
Mister Gobbler swelled himself up
so and got so red in the face. he
looked as though he were going TO

L|ONESS WATCHES
over DEAD CUBS
Animal Refuses to Let Them Be
Removed From the Cage

Toledo. April 1O.---A jungle death
watch, overwhelming in its tenderness,
yet awe-inspiring In Its savage inten-
sity has terminated after four days
In the lion house Of the Walbridge
park zoo here.
The watchers were Sahara, the
beautiful lioness lent to Toledo by the
Cleveland zoo, and King, the jungle
giant, pride of the Toledo collection.
Between Sahara's two powerful
forepaws. caresscd tenderly at inter-
walls and guarded by two half-closed
eyes, dimmed by grief, were two
chubby, fuzzy cubs--both lifeless.
Urge of Mother Love.
Sahara would not believe they were
dead--or knowing II. could not calm
the overwhelming urge Of mother love
that had aroused all the tenderness,
and yet all of the savagery, of her
jungle nature. Only an occasional
whine escaped the lioness to indicate
her grief.
For four days the death watch was
maintained--after the great stork of
the lion world flew over the animal
house and left the lifeless bodies of

PROMOTES PLAN TO
TEACH CITIZENS
Educators Will Discuss Building
Of Character at Conference

Washington, April l0,-Thc recent
action Of the American Bar assoca.
ton In promoting an active campaign
| tor law TO compel the teaching OF
citizenship In the public schools Of the
land has received widespread COM
ment. There might even seem to be
an implication that educators have
not been looking after this very i'm
portant phase of school work, but
such is not the case, declares the
! Character Education association, OF
! this city.
Research on Problems
Research on the problems of edu-
cation for citizenship has been carried
on by educators for several years, and
at the forthcoming world conference
on education, TO be held In San Fran
cisco next June, when delegates from
ali parts of the world Will meet, this
subject will be discussed it was said.
There Is. however" declares the
associations statement, "a larger
movement going forward than merely
the teaching OF citizenship. This is
character education" which has as
it's fundamental purpose the cultiva-
ton of the disposition and purpose TO
act right as citizens, and not merely
or chiefly knowledge of the consu-
tuition and the principles of govern
ment. Statistics show that half of the
notorious criminals and citizenship
pcrverts of tho nation are well in
formed regarding the United States
constitution and the laws OF the
states. These people take advantage
CT their legal knowledge to contrive
ways and means of breaking the laws
of the land without subjecting them
selves to the danger of suffering the
penalties of their crimes.
Realize importance
'sThe educators OF America realize
that character forming should be one
of the principal aims of our schools.
Inculcatc in the child the will to do
right and act right, and he will grow
up to be a worthy citizen. Ignore the
moral side and there is always the
possibility that the more knowledge a
person receives, whether it be in citi-
zenship or anything else, the greater
criminal will he turn out to be even
tually il the will to wrong doing is
present. Many defaulting bank
president would be only a second
story worker" but for an education
that has neglected the moral ele-
ment."

her lips part with exhilaration.

until Paul got the engine going again
and he was able to "flatten out" and
fly evenly a couple of thousand feet

at her then. she was white, but she
smiled with steady lips.
1t was only a few minutes later
when they begun to enter the smoke

he landed.
