Our Birds i'm Verse

l mark thy rigid form against the cloud,
High DER the EARTH thou bird OF regal flight.
And sink, envious clod. upon the earth.
Thy even course, so lofty and so proud,
Bathed by sea OF undiluted light
So my noble dream, that had its birth
When from young manhood looked on life
see thee on the ground, at thy repast;
Upon thy beak the putrd entrails CLEAN
! note the greed, the glut, the eager strife
A voice beside my ear doth CRATE AT last
Behold the realization of thy dreami"
Not so. When soaring high thy form see
Forgot these orgies foul-they could not be.
And when that early vision meets my eye,
The dream is real, reality lie

nary, even branch thrust into moist
soil growing and growing rapidly.
The bark is a light brown, rough
and thick; on the smaller branches
1t is greenish, greenish yellow and. in
one variety. bright yellow. The
leaves are two to four inches long,
three-eighths to five-eighths inch
wide, tapering at both ends, finely
toothed with about eighteen teeth to
the inch. silkyhairy on both sides,
bright green above, paler or whitish
beneath.
The flower catkins appear in April
or May on the ends of the short, leafy
branchlets. while the leaves are half
grown. The male catkins are yellow
and seen against the soft green of
the new foliage they present a pic
ture that is charming, tender and
bright.
The tree illustrated is growing in
Potomac Park. in the golf links
northwest of the tidal basin. In fact
all our four species of tree willows
may be seen growing here within the
space of one acre. and IT will well
repay those interested to visit the
trees and make comparisons.

True. If the talent Is so great as

The genus OF willows is large one,
with more than ITO recorded species
in the world, thirty-one in North
America, but comparatively few of
them grow to the size of trees-only
four in this part of the country. the
white willow, black willow, crack
willow and weeping willow and, of
course. several varieties of these.
Three of them were foreign trees,
now well naturalized over here.
The white willow earns we'll the

The Girls Job.

The how is born into the world with
the we'll established notion that he Is
to do a mans work. and that he is
exnected to prepare himself for the
doing of it as promptly as possible.
The girl has no such notion. Inc
ghostly tradition of the idle woman
has not been laid even by the new
woman idea and the suffrage. A
woman is not to work, really. She's
to be in the home.
Washing md ironing, and baking:
sewing and nursing, bearing ana
rearing children, managing a mouse
and all it's entails, do not. IN the

that requires any training. Girls are
to "pick it up" as their mothers did.
And that's a great injustice to the girls.
No system of education should be
permitted to feel that it has done It's
duty by the girls until every girl
that comes under it's influence has
been trained in homemaking ana
everything that goes with 1t. The
girl is entitled to know what is be-
fore her and have chance to pre-
pare for it.
After that she still needs all the
education life the schools can give
her Nothing she asks for should be
withheld Then she should pick out
the one job she likes ana go INTO II
with all that is in her, whether build
ing or sewing, making hats or selling
motors.
why train her in such a way IL she
is going to be married and rear a
family? Why put all that energy into
one line when she is destined to i've
all h9r life in the circumscribed
home?
There's plenty Of use. A woman
needs to bring to her job of home
making the broadest possible knowl-
edge of the world and its doings:
She needs to bring to her task of
mothering the finest kind of intelli-
gence that the life she bestows may
be the richest gift possible.

We ne'er suspect how often We
Are watched by those we do not see.
-Jumppr tba Har

Strange things are to be seen at
times in the Green Forest. Every one
of the little people who live there can
tell you this. But no stranger sight
was ever seen than that which Jumper
the Hare saw early one October morn
ing from his favorite hiding place.
At least that is what Jumper thinks.
He had seen a hunter with ter
rible gun seat himself on a log and
wait He had seen handsome Mr..
Grouse alight just short distance
from that hunter, and he had seen
that hunter lift this terrible gun and
point it at Mr.. Grouse. There was
nothing strange in this. Jumper had
seen things like this before. But that
hunter hadn't fired the terrible gun.

From the Rehoboth Herald.
A profiteer who had done the US
ual thing-bought country estate
and a town house-felt that there was
still something needed to complete
his moneys worth. Other people had
ancestry; he must get some.
On the advice of a friend he en-
gagged a man to undertake the neces-
sary research.
In due time the investigator came
to report, and laid a sealed package
on the table. Without opening the
package, the profiteer asked him
how much his fee was.
Il want S1,000,'' the man replied,
ito say nothing"
OF course, he got it.

or two, and then slowly taken it
down and rested 1t across his knees.
After this he had sat there for long
time, watching Mr.. Grouse.
After awhile there had been the

and Mrs. Grouse had joined Mr..

over beneath a big beech tree and
begun to pick up beechnuts. Not for

hunting season was on. They didn't
miss the rustic of a leaf. If a leaf
futtered down from a tree their heads
were up instantly, and they listened

rustic was not a warning of danger.
Yet all the time a hunter with a ter

could have killed them at any time.
but he didn't even lift his terrible
gun again. Do you wonder that
Jumper thought this the strangest
thing he had ever seen?
Mr.. and Mrs. Grouse continued to

eat no more. Then they went over to
a. little sandy place and took dust

hens do. 1t was clear that they had
