The production of plate glass in
this country is increasing. In the
first six months of this year there
was manufactured over nine and a
quarter million more feet than for a
like period last year. This is
gratifying but it might be well not
to forget that plate glass does not
assure US of vision that is clearer
in all Nrespects.

"Botheration," softly footed the old
robber bird, and Tapping his wings
away he flew. He knew it was most
unsafe for him to be near Uncle
Lucky's house when the kind Police
man Dog was on his beat, UP the
Avenue, down the street, blowing his
whistle now and then, to frighten
away old robber men.
And now that dear Uncle Lucky is
safe at home with Little Miss
Mousie we will wait to hear in the
following story what happened after
that.

After such an enormous volume OF
