A "ROOK PARLIAMENT"

L one day while we stood at
the edge of a field and watched
a farmer plowing, isn't it funny
how those crows follow the plow?"

are not crows. They are rocks
and mean a great deal TO the
farmers over here in England"
Rocks" repeated Bobby, well,
tken, what are those rocks digging

'"They are eating up the grubs
of the cockchafer, n very destruc-
tive insect, which lives in the
ground for three years before 1t
matches out and works havoc"
But" continued Bobby, II
thought any of that family that
look like crows were destructive
themselves.
"Oh," laughed, "rooks may eat
a few potatoes and nip few wall
nuts off the trees, but that should
be considered as rayment for the
good work they do. Once in this
Part Of England the farmers de-
cided to kill eff all the rocks,
which they did. But the next year
they found they had to employ
women and children to collect the
grubs. The next year, believe me,
they let the rocks alone. On some
parts of the Continent. and IL:
France particularly. the rocks are
encouraged and protected by law"
The next day we walked out to
the field again to see the progress
Of the work which the farmer
was doing. But not a roolk was
to be seen.
THE rocks are loafing on the
job" declared Bobby.

MORE EDUCATION
Beatrice Fairfax Thinks Our Slogan
! Should Be Better Fathers and

for Marriage.

: Marriage is. humanity speak

that is two children for each mar

From this viewpoint, marriages
Of college graduates would seem
to be only partially successful.
For instance, Harvard classes
from 1860 to 1880. representative
years, have not produced this
needed quota Of children. Sta.
tistics also prove that while col
lege women marry. they have
only an average of is children
to each married couple.
There's no race suicide among
the ignorant. criminal and unfit.
Girls from the illiterate classes ~
a rule marry early In life and
raise large families. How impor-
tant then for educated, intelligent.
progressive young people to
marry and raise families of chill
dren. fitted to uplift and lead.
If our modern system of educa-
ton is in any way discouraging
young people from faithful mar
riage. something is drastfcally
wrong with educational methods.
It's eminently important that
modern girls Of education should
marry and raise families, passing
on the torch of Hfe' and intelli-

type.
Education for women has come

MEDITATIONS
OF A WIFE
~ Helen Rowland
That Married Feeling

That Married Feeling
TEIS is the time of year when
l. a man begins to shed that
married feeling" along with his
smoking jacket, his pipe and his
felt slippers, and to assume the
glad guise of freedom, along with
his straw hat, his cigarette and
his white flannel trousers.
You can no longer spot a mar
ried man by the sag of his
shoulders, the spots on his coat
and the wistful look in his ewes.
1t is as impossible to distin-
guish him from snappy bach
elor as it is to tell a flapper
from her grandmother by the
back of her bobbed hair.
No matter how MUCH mar
ried a man may be, he doesn't
FEEL that way half the time!
But man has nothing to re-
mind him that he is married
not even wedding-ring or a
string around his finger. So,
how can the poor boy remember
it in these days, when every
woman he meets tries her best t.
make him forget it?
The Washington times., 1925-05-15

without ceremony, and off he
hoped to the neighboring woods.
We followed quickly and when
we reached the edge of the wood
Bunny held up a warning paw
for US to stop.
Such a racket you never heard
in your life. Really it was deaf
ening and I will tell you about
it.
There in a circle on the ground
were many rocks bobbing their
heads up and down and cawing
for all they were worth.
And right in the middle of the
circle, where he was guarded by
four very stern looking rocks,
was one poor fellow who looked
as if he was scared to death.
"See the criminal in the mid
dIe?" asked Bunny.
"You don't mean it?" gasped.
"Oh, yes" said Bunny. They
are sitting on his case now and
what is more If they find him
guilty they will punish him and
punish him severely. Oftentimes
IL the crime is serious they exc
cute the offender"
Just then, evidently the SEN
tence was pronounced, because
all the rocks flew at the prisoner
and savageIy pecked at him, while
they screeched furiously.
Suddenly they stopped their at.
tack and with sign from the
leader all flew up into the very
top of a big tree.
I'm bet that fellow won't break
any more laws in a hurry" said
Bunny, as we started home. "Out-
side of losing a few feathers, 1
guess he's all right. But he's
lucky to be alive, I'm here to tell
you"

Who Occupies q Unique Position
in the Writing World as an
Authority on Problems
OF Love.

" thoughts q! love and marriage
filled the mind and heart Of every
girl from doll days to the momen1
she donned her brical veil. And,
in fact, as long as life lasted a
wonan's husband, home and chill
dren continued to be her great
interest.
Not to marry was calamity.
No wonder the eighteenth CEN
tury poet wrote:
Mans love is Of mans life thing
'Tis a woman's whole existence"
How changed are conditions to-
day! A great revolution has taken
place, involving higher education
Of women. their entrance into busi-
ness and professions, and their ac-
tive participation in all sorts Of
public work.
No longer was Miss Young Girl
satisfied with the three Rs and
smattering of accomplishments
She must prepare herself for her
chosen work.
She went TO college with ner
brother or fitted herself by sound
training for business life. There
are few departments Of industry
today where women do not shine
as experts.
1 asked my seventeen~year-o old
niece. who's just entering college.
whether an educated girl is likely
to marry and whether her mar
riage is more apt to be successful
because of her education.
Yes, of course" was her
prompt reply. Education makes
a girl better informed, broader
minded and she is more interest
ing and attractive as q sweet
heart and wife.
Education gives a girl COM
mon sense and develops her in
telligence. She won't be easily
persuaded to marry by the wrong
kind of man and when she does
marry she'll know how to bring
up her children healthfully and
sensibly.
LAS for education diseouraging
girls from love and marriage,
just listen to school girls and col
lege girls when they chatter
among themselves. Their re-
marks are always on one subject:
HIM.
Besides. through school and
college life you're sure to meet
nice young men and that helps
So much for the seventeen-year-
old point of view, which is not
to be ignored.

IF Dan had thrown a charge Oh

The truck was heavily loaded

gay bachelor days.
About the only times when a
man feels very much married are
around the first of the month,
the last Of the week and the
first of the year-when the bills
come in.
At other times he scarcely no
tees it-and he ferventIy prays
that nobody else will notice it
He secretly hopes that every
pretty woman will treat him
just as though he WEREN'T
married-that she will trust
him. and not let a liEe thing
like a wife and family at the
seashore stand between her and
the roof. garden.
About the only time that man
feels thoroughly and irrevocably
married is when the girl who
has been trying to help him
forget it" suddenly begins to take
him seriously.
Then he can prove to her In a

Then he begins to think of mar.

her. II take good care Of your
little boy-see he in there asleep"
and he pointed to small adjoin-
ing room. Mamie, without wait
ing for more, made dash through
the door. Sure enough there lay
Zander asleep surrounded with
such playthings as Juan had been
able to furnish.
The bed itself was a crude
bunk-on a perch close to it was
a hoot owl; two large glass jars
stood on the floor-in one was q
tarantula, in the other a dead
rattler.
''Zander" cried Mamie, and en-.
folded her darling in her arms.
The little boy thus suddenly
awakened, kissed her with all the
love of a child for a mother, and
pointed proudly to his collection
of playthings.
The Outlaw.
During the happy reunion Juan
stroHed into the room; he was
all smiles. "You see-I treat little
boys very WELL" and he pointed
as Zander had done to the evi.
dences of his devotion
Mamie was not slow to show
her gratitude: ''Oh, Juan. I thank
you. I do, indeed, for taking such
good care of Zander-I was so
afraid something would happen to
him."
The Mexican bowed and she
turned to the boy: Get your
hat, dear, we're going away now. +"
What Juan might have said to
this proposal, so at variance with
the instructions he had received
from Dan, will never be known,
for at that moment there came
echoing through the house sound
that sent Juan hurrying to the
window.
Not far away, and sweeping
toward the hacienda, was The
man more dreaded than any other
on either side Of the border
Gomez. the half-breed outlaw.
In there" shouted Juan, the
smile gone from his face. "In
there: and if you value your
life-no sound" He pushed the
frightened girl into the bedroom,
where she had found Zander
sleeping and at once looked to
the revolvers in his holsters.
From Gomez and the cut
throats who followed him he
knew he could expect no mercy.
His last day had come, but he
resolved to make that day one
the attackers would long remem-
ber, and before all else he swore
to defend Mamie and the boy.
Gomez and his men came on
boldly enough until they reached
shooting distance, then they dis
mounted, the leader slipping first
off his horse.
If ever Juan prayed for the
presence of Dan Murchison and
his good pals. Texas and Good
News, it was at that moment,
but all he had to rely on were
few servants who could not
hope to hold Gomez at bay.
Old.time Feud.
Until the time when the out
laws raided the house itself
there was nothing to do but
barricade the door and make
the attempt to enter as costly
as possible. With grim face
Juan called his servants and
told them that their only chance
of life was to fight hard. Then
with them he set to work to re-
inforce the heavy wooden beam
used to keep the door closed.
Now and again as he worked
and as Mamie crouched in the
small room hugging Zander. a
stray shot whistled against the
walls. In a few moments all that
Juan could do he had done; there
was nothing now but to wait for
the attack.
