Little Stories For Bedtime
tBy THORNTON BURGEss,

Fitting in a corn-shock in Far mer Browns sornfield, Danny Mead ow Mouse ate and ate and ate until he couldn't hold another golden grain. In fact, Danny was so stuffed fbat he felt as if he couldn't move. He wanted to see more of that wonderful nlace. hut he was very sleepy. Besides, Danny really was very tired for he had travelled what to him was a very long distance, not to mention the parrow es- capes he had had.
 So Danny found comfortable hollow among the cornstalks and curded him self up in a little ball. No sooner had he closed his eyes than Danny was sound asleep and beginning to dream. Such wonderful dreams as Danny did have! He and Nanny Meadow Mouse had a new home, a wonderful castle of golden corn. In it they had nothing to do but eat and sleep and eat. They feared no one because they never had to go out where hungry enemies could see them. In their golden castle they lived in the midst of plenty, peace and happiness. It was a lovely dream, the loyeliest dream Danny ever had had in all his life.
 When he awoke he thought at first that his dream actually had come true, for the first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was a row of golden grains just above his head. You see there was an ear of, corn there with a strip of the husk torn away just enough to show the golden grain. For a few minutes Danny kept perfectly still trying to remeber where he was and how he came there. Little by little he remebered how he had started out to see the Great world, the narrow es- capes he had had, how Bobby Coon had promised to show him riches such as he never had dreamed of, and had been as good as his word, and how he had stuffed himself until he couldn't eat another mouthful.
 When he had fallen asleep it had been moonlight. Now the sunlight was creeping in to where he lay. He heard the harsh voice of Blacky the Crow, and it came to him that this was what had awakened him. He wondered what Blacky was doing there. Then he wondered what that wonderful place looked like by daylight. Danny scrambled to his feet, washed his face and hands, smoothed out his rumpled coat, and then climbed to place where he could peep out. What he saw was a great field of bare brown earth and scattered all over it were shocks of corn just like the one he was in. On one of them was Blacky the Crow, making a breakfast of yellow corn. Danny blinked and rubbed his eyes. If ev- cry one of those queer looking shocks held as much corn as the one he was in he, Danny Meadow Mouse, was the richest meadow mouse that ever lived. You see he didn't once think that that corn might belong to somebody else.
 Now Danny is nothing if not prac- tical. He didn't waste much time look

Chapter XXXVII

Chapter AAAVl1
 "I must go to town this morning, Rosanna," said Joan a few days after Rupert had left. If there's anything you need will you let me know with in the next hour?"
 "Shure, Miss Joan," answered Rosan- ma who found Miss Joan a most con- siderate mistress.
 "I'm not going to take Sonny as it's so hot and he gets tired trailing along from one store to another. don't think he'll bother you as he'll be playing with the boys, I'll try to be home in time for supper" she added as she went upstairs.
 'Bless her heart," murmured Ro- sanna as she went to her cupboards to discover what needed replenishing. eff it weren't for that Mrs. Love, and bad luck to her, I'm think Mir. Rupert would be happy man again" 1"
 An hour later Joan was on her way to town and Rosanna was busy in the kitchen. Time passed swiftly with both, but as Joan was driving home she caught a glimpse of a rug ged mountain o1 whose side was won- derful waterfall. Instantly brought Lon Fortescue to mind. That was the sort of country he loved. She wondered if she would meet him again in the fall. Then her thoughts turned to Rupert. How strange that she should have met those men almost simultaneously. They were both very interesting, but Rupert Joan sighed and as the car swung up the approach to Hearts Desire she gathered her bundles together deter mined to forget.
 Dick footed his horn and Sonny came hurrying towards the car. As the little chap appeared Joan thought his face looked flushed, but picking him up in her arms she asked, Have you had a good time today?"
 For once Sonny did not reply with his usual frankness, and muttering something about his boat he tried to direct the conversation into other channels. Joan, realizing that it might be better not to discuss the matter any further with him, noticed that his suit looked unusually rumpled and that it was somewhat damp across his chest. "Well, Sonny, think we'd better wash our hands and think you should change your suit"
 "All right, Miss Fairy" answered the

ing at those other shocks. He. wanted to know all about the one he was in. So he climbed all over and through that, and when he was sure that he had seen all there was to be seen he sat down to think things over.
 Its a regular castle!" said he, talking to himself, because there was no one else to talk to. Its a regular castle! I must get Nanny and move over here at once. No one can get to go outside unless we want to, be- cause there is food enough right here to last us all winter. We can climb up to the top and look out when we want to and see our neighbors without being seen. We havenu't even got to gather grass to make a bed of for the covering of this decicious food can be torn up and will make the incest kind of & bed. I do hope Nanny will be will ing to come. She has got to-" Dan- sJ said this last very firmly.
 Then he remembered the narrow es- capes he had had getting there. Would it be as dangerous getting home and then back there again? He didn't mind so much for himself, but there was Nanny to think of. For a long time he sat there thinking it all over, plan ming the wonderful castle they would build in that shock of corn, wonder ing if Nanny would refuse to come. trying to think of some way to make the journey safer. At last he made up his mind. He would start for home at once. He wouldn't tell Nanny a thing about the dangers of the jour ney, but only about tEe wonderful place they would have, the golden castle of his dream. So watching until the was sure the way was clear, Danny Meadow Mouse started for home.

VETERANS CT I
CALLOVER
YOUTHS
Heady Baseball Wins Out
/ With Managers Against
Brain and BraWn.
By BERT WALKER.

DETROIT, April 21.-"Give me
the bonehead who can hit, run and
throw and you can have all the in
side ball players on earth"
There is a nationally known base
ball expert who loves to say this
on any and all occasions when the
value of thinking ball players or
steady heads come up.
1t Is interesting to notes however,
that not a single American League
manager agreed with this expert
for the opening games, for every
manager in the bunch selected a
veteran to pitch the opener, though
in almost every case said veteran
was not in as good condition as
some Of the kid pitchers ON the
staff.
Managers wanted the man with
the head for that game. All were
eager to win the first one, for SEN
timental and strategic reasons. They
figured that amid the excitement
that is the inseparable companion
OF an opening contest, the cool,
calm and thinking veteran was the
best bet even If the old arm wasn't
working as well as we're those Of
some Of the youths.
SODD IOuHu nlInScIL facing
the proposition Of having to go
into the game either with a COM
paratively inexperienced man, with
an excellent arm or a steady old
veteran with a bum arm. He
didn't hesitate, but he sent the
veteran in. IA good head is bet
ter than a good arm today" he oh.
served sagely and the sequel proved
that he was correct as a. trivet.
George Dauss couldn't prevent the
Indians from making eleven hits,
but what was better. he could pre-
vent them from winning the ball
game, because he used the old bean.
Veterans do not get in shape as
quickly as do youngsters and so it
came to pass that on every major
league club some kid was in better
pitching shape than any veteran
on the staff, yet not a kid got an
opportunity to try his Wanted arm
in the opener.
Now that the big important open.
ing games are out Of the way the
youngsters will get their chance
and doubtless in the ordinary games
they may prove even better than
the veterans, but when a level head
and a stout heart is needed, the
men who are battlebroke and she'll
proof will ever get the call.
