 Danny explored that henhouse from end to end. He made up his mind that he was going to like 1t there. He found some stray grains of corn which the hens had missed. It was warm and there was cvery- thing to make it comfortable. The only thing was he was alone. He missed Nanny. He wondered what had become of her. He was quite sure that Black Pussy hadn't caught her because he knew that Black Pussy had chased him.
 "I do hope she is as well off az am," said Danny 10 himself. "Yes, sir, l hope she is as we'll fixed as l am. If I can get enough to eat and l rather think I can this will be just as good a place to spend the winter as Farmer Browns barn. l wonder which one of those places will be best for my bed. l wonder what they are for anyway" Of course, Danny meant those nesting boxes. He decided to stay for while in that one high est up in the darkest corner. In the end he stayed there altogether. You see, he soon discovered what those nesting boxes were for. But no hen used that one he had chosen. So, when Farmer Browns Boy came around each day to look for eggs, he never looked in that particular box. He knew the hens were not using it.
 The first morning that Farmer i Browns Boy came there was | great commotion among the hens and Danny was frightened. Yoy sec, Farmer Browns Boy hac brought breakfast for the hens and it was this that excited them Danny peeked out with his brigh eyes and he didn't miss a thing Just as soon as Farmer Browns Boy had gone Danny climbed dowI and, watching his chance, darteC out and got enough corn for break fast. The hens didn't pay any at tention 10 him. So Danny got som, food to take back to his nest. H. soon found that Farmer Brown Boy brought a variety of goo, things. Sometimes the food wa spread in the henyard. Then Damn, would watch until he was sure n, one was about, then he would dar out of that little doorway. get wha he wanted and dart back again.
 "Oh. dear!" sighed Danny nor than once. If only Nanny MeadoN Mouse were here to share thing with me I would be perfectly hap py. hope she is as we'll fixed a I am."

PILL-SLAVE
 FREED FROM CONSTIPATION
Kellogg's ALL BRAN brought natural relief
 in a few weeks

A remarkable, convincing tribute is paid Kellogg's ALL-RRAN in this letter from MT. F. c. Aminsen, of Seattle:
 q suffered with chronic constipation for many years and was compelled to use pills every night, but since got your Kellogg's ALL-RRAN it works fine. l would not be without it. I was so deathly sick of taking pills every night. Now it is so different. kellogg's ALL-BRAN works so naturally and is pleasant to take"
 F. c. AMINsEN.
 Kennyhole, Seattle, Washington You can get permanent relief from constipation with Kellogg's ALL-BRAN if eaten regularly. Two tablespoonfuls daily or in chronic cases, with every meal. Doctors recommend it because it is ALL BRAN. It does a job only ALL-BRAN can do. Part-bran products may not do any good at all.
 Eat Kellogg's ALL-BRAN with milk or cream. Use it in cooking, Try the recipes given on the pack age: Kellogg's ALL-BRAN is made by Kellogg in Battle Creek, Michi- gan. Served by the leading hotels and restaurants. Sold by grocers.

that high schools have been prevent
ed from giving military training
through the activities Of the pacifists.
In some instances the movement was
really against patriotism and the best
interests of the nation. He declared
that military training was not ALWAYS
with the idea Of war in mind but the
training of youth for better manhood
and citizenship.

SCORES
PACIFISTS AT
LI0NSDINNER
Visiting Army and National
Guard Officers Gibbs /,
Guests at Meeting

Pacifist propaganda which sought
to undermine the national defense
and strike even at patriotism was
scored today ut the luncheon Of the
Lions club at the Grand Pacific hotel
where Governor Sorlie. Major General
Poorc. Colonel Ross and many Ma
tional Guard officers were guests of
honor. DR.. Strauss persidcd and in
troduced the speakers. Of the day.
The entire Lions program was given
over to discussion of the national
defense act. Governor Sorlie told of
efforts to secure an aviation field for
Fort Lincoln. He has just returned
from two weeks visit to various Sec
tons Of the state and the Twin Cities.
He told the Lions that General Pat
rick had promised to send an officer
here to investigate the possibility of
using Fort Lincoln as an aviation
field and he expected that the survey
would be made by the war depart
ment in May.
Adjutant. General Fraser paid
tribute to the commanding officers Of
the seventh corps area and declared
that under the defense act the Ma
tional Guard was no longer an orphan.
that it's affairs were directed in an
orderly manner under a tie-up with
the regular army and the reserve Of
ficers.
Cooperation Asked
General POore followed General
Fraser and asked for the cooperation
Of the Lions in promoting the Citi-
zens Training school to be held next
summer at Fort Smelling. He de-
clared that every military man alb
hored war and that the defense act
really was an agency of peace despite
the fact that the pacifists seek to un-
dermine it and discourage the youth
of the land from taking military
training.
"The training school," he said. lis
not militaristic agency. It is held
primarily to develop manhood and to
train youths for better citizenship.
