The Visitors Arrive.
Greed is reckless and is blind,
Driving cautionNout of mind.
old Nofhar Ma frrf

1t was a beautiful moonlit night.
Browns sugar house was almost as
light as by day. All through the
early evening Farmer Brown and
Farmer Browns Boy were busy MAX
ing sirup and sugar. But at last the
work was done. They put out the
lights, and then Farmer Browns Boy
sat down by little window. Farmer
Brown went to bed, for he was tired
'1f there are any visitors, you can
wake me-" said he.
For a long time nothing happened
Farmer Browns Boy heard Hooty the
Owl, but that was the only sound
that reached him from outside. He
began to grow sleepy. He had work
ed hard all day and he was tired.
Once or twice he dozed off. At last
he made up his mind that no Bears
would come around that night. He
took a last look across the clearing
in front of the sugar house. What
was that? 1t seemed to him that
there was a. blacker shadow among
the Black Shadows under the trees on
the further side of that little clear
ing, and that it moved. Instantly he
was wide awake. Then he chuckled
softly. A young Bear had come out
into the moonlight, and in a moment
was joined by two more. Then all
three sat up in the moonlight and
stared over at the little sugar house.
They found that sugar I put out
for 'them,'' thought Farmer Browns S
Boy. as he wakened his father. Then.
with blankets around them, for the
night was cold, the two sat by the
window and watched.
The three young Bears looked al
most like three black stumpS in the
moonlight, so motionless did they sit.
1t was plain that they were suS-
picious. But at last one of them
dropped down to all fours and began
to prowl about uneasily. Presently
he found a little piece of sugar and
gobbled it down. He began to hunt

REAL ESTATE BOND
INVESTMENTS GROW
&
Sales in Baltimore This Year
Running in Excess of $10,-
100000. Figures Show.
snccial Dispatch TO The Star.

Special Dispatch 10 The Star.
q BALTIMORE, April 11.-Bonds and
ether certificates secured by first liens
on fee simple real estate have become
enc of the most popular, forms of in
:vestment securities with local in
-vestors. That the demand for such
securities is increasing rapidly is
shown by the fact that several large
investment banking firms recently
have made contracts with mortgage
companies to handle their bonds.
Five years ago, in 1920, it is doubt
full whether all the sales of such Sc
.curities in Baltimore would have to-
tailed much more than 81 900, 900. Sales
of real estate mortgage bonds this
year are already running at the rate
of well in excess of $10,00O,000, and
the total probably will be increased
substantially beyond that figure with
the added sales power of the new
nrnS entering that business.
The development of the real estate
mortgage bond or certificate in Bal
timore makes an interesting study.
Their system is to make number
of mortgage loans and to deposit
them with a trust company. which
aEIS dS iTuSlee LOT an issue OF poHQS.
4 number of these companies give the
purchasers of the bonds the added Sc
curity of bond or fuarantee off some
large bonding company to the effect
that the interest and principal of the
issue will be paid. This is a COM
paratively new feature, having de-
Neloped within the last year or two.
1t has opened new field for the
bonding companies. which are now
placing their guarantee upon such is
sues, but not until they have exam
ined each individual loan and are sat
iSfied that the mortgage on the prop
erty is amply secured by real estate.

eagerly for another, and soon found
it. This was too much for the other
two little Bears, and they joined him.
All three began to run this way and
that way with their noses to the
ground. They were so greedy for
that sugar that they forgot to be
suspicious.
So at last one Of them reached the
place where the sirup-covered can
hung from the birch tree. He stood
up and looked at it, and in the moon
light his face was a picture of curl
osity. Slowly he stretched his head
forward to smell of it. OF course, he
smelled the sirup at once. He
stretched forth a greedy tongue to
lick it. The can swung away gently
at the touch of his tongue. He back ed
away hurriedly. The thing moved!
1t must be alive!
The can stopped swinging. The lit
tie Bear gained courage. Once more
he tried to lick it, Again the can
swung away from him. By this time
the little Bear had got a good smell
of the sugar in that can. He grabbed
at it with both forepaws and pulled
it down toward him. But the can
was smooth and slipped out of his
paws. The spring of the branch TO
which 1t was tied made it jump away
from him. The little Bear grabbed

Frederick William and Wife Guests
at Band Concert.

BRESLAU, Germany, April IL
Former Crown Prince Frederick
William and his wife, Cecilie, made
their first formal public appearance
yesterday, since Frederick William
returned to Germany from the island

and fife corps had parts in the pro-

suspiciously at that queer. swinging
thing.
Just then his brother came up to
see what was going on. The can
stopped swinging. Slowly this little
Bear approached 1t. He did exactly
as his brother had done, and the same
thing happened. He, too, received a
bump on his tender little nose.

Then, before he understood what was
happening, that can swung straight
back and hit him sharply square on
the end of his nose. 1t was so unex-
pected that he lost his balance and
fell over backward. He scrambled
to his feet and ran away to a safe
distance. Then he turned and with
