Mother Bear.
Mother Bear wanted fish and she
meant TO catch fish Long. long ago
she naturally has little of 1t. No one
can be successful fisherman who lacks
patience. So she waited motionless be-
side the Laughing Brook where the
water was very shallow. Twice fish
had started up through that shallow
water only to be frightened back by
Littlest Bear, who, because Mother
Bear had spoiled her, had not yet
learned to mind.
Each time Mother Bear had warned
Littlest Bear. Now you would have
thought that that second warning would
have been sufficient. 1t was for while.
But Littlest Bears memory was short.
Besides, she had always done as she
pleased. She thought this fishing very
tiresome business. Brother and Sister
had wisely lain down to rest. Littlest
Bear didn't want TO rest II wasn't long
prowling about restlessly.

In fact, she meant to keep away from
the water altogether. But there was
something very tantalizing about that
running water. She wanted to play in
nearer to it, But she took very good
care to make no noise that would attract
Mother Bears attention. At last she
was on the very edge of the water just
above where Mother Bear was standing.
Mother Bear was intently looking
downstream. She didn't see Littlest
Bear. A big fish had started up through

WARSAW, February 16.-The de-
velopments in Memel have inspired
feelings of deep disgruntlement in
Poland. If Lithuanian sovereignty
over that city is recognized by the
allies, as seems probable (that was
done today, the Polish government
may issue a note of formal protest
on the ground that such a recognition
would place a premium on violence
and would be the occa sion for fear
that harm would be done to Polish
commerce.
Furthermore, according to the Ga
zette Warsawska, the Poles may make
a request for the internationaiizatio
of the River Niemen, on which much
Polish trade is borne from Wilma to
the sea. The Niemen, which empties
into the Baltic near Memel, has been
closed repeatedly by the Lithuanian
authorities, according to the Poles,
so - to interrupt the passage of
commerce through Lithuania
a vigorous note was sent by wire
less from Wilma to Kovno Thursday
night warning Lithuania that Poland
would hold her responsible for war
like operations undertaken by irregu-
lars against the Polish forces occupy
ing the neutral zone today. The
Kovno government acknowledged the
receipt of the note without comment.
Both this proclamation and another
containing a stern warning to the in
habitants of the neutral against local
disturbances are attributed to Mar
8hal Pilsudski, former chief of state,
but now chief of staff of the Polish
army. He has been in Wilma for some
days.

ALLIES TURN OVER MEMEL.
Sovereignty Over Baltic Area
Granted Lithuania.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
PARIS, February 16.-Sovereignty
over the Memel district, the Baltic
area detached from Germany, and
since the war under interallied juris-
diction, was granted Lithuania by the
allied council of ambassadors today.
The Memel territory was invaded
early in January by Lithuanian ir-
regulars, and a government was set
UP under NJ Simonaitis, leader in the
insurgent movement. Demands for the
withdrawal of this armed force and
its executives were made by the coun-
ell of ambassadors upon Lithuania.
The council was officially informed
today that the revolutionary govern
ment of Simonaitis had withdrawn
and that another government, presid-
ed over by NJ. Gailius, and recognized
by the allied authorities, had been in
stalled.
The council thereupon decided to al
lot the sovereignty of Memel to
Lithuania.
Allied troops are occupying sectors
designated for them as an assurance
of the preservation of order.
The conditions imposed by the al
lied powers for the turning over of
the sovereignty include the establish
ment of absolute autonomy and the
organization of transit facilities for
foreign commerce, both by water and
rail, in order to safeguard both Polish
and Lithuanian interests in districts
of which Memel is a natural outlet.
