Browns Boy. But as the days went
by it began to look as if he would not
have a chance. Time and again he
knew that he was being watched by
Puma the Panther. How he knew he
couldn't say. He just knew. that was
all. But though he was ever so care
full, and though he kept constant
watch, he didn't get so much as
glimpse Of Puma's shadowy form
after the time he had seen him near
the yard Of Lightfoot the Deer.
Then came a moonlight night. AL
ready the snow had pretty we'll melt
cd in the Green Forest, but there was
still enough to cover the ground.
Lightfoot the Deer and his family
could leave their yard and move about
freely. so Farmer Browns Boy no
longer worried about them. He was
quite sure that Lightfoot was smart
enough to keep his family safe. He
was thinking of this as he stepped
TO the open door to look out. AS he
looked his heart gave a jump. Stand
ing in the clearing close to the edge
was a great Cat. staring over at the
sugar house. Farmer Browns Boy
was in deep shadow himself, and he
knew it. He knew that Puma the
Panther-for that is who it was
could not see him. Puma was within
range of that terrible gun. and that
terrible gun was within reach of
Farmer Browns Boy's hands.
Slowly, carefully. Farmer Browns
Boy reached for that gun. Slowly.
carefully. he lifted it to his shoulder
and pointed it at Puma the Panther
With the greatest care he aimed for
the point on Puma which would mean
certain death. At last he had his
chance and was ready for it. He had
but to press the trigger of that ter
rible gun and the Green Forest would
no more know Puma the Panther. He
looked along the barrel. A CLEAN of
satisfaction was in his eyes. And
then slowly. carefully, he lowered that
gun from his shoulder and on his face
was a smile.
II thought I wanted to kill you,
Puma said he under his breath,
but I didn't at all. You belong in
the Green Forest I'm glad you are
here. / am not afraid of you, and
you have nothing to fear from me. "
And so 1t was that Puma the Pan

How Desserts May Offer Variety
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER

add its element to provide variety to
meals.
Balancing the Meal.
Hot desserts are, as rule. heartier
than cold ones. so this point must be
we'll considered when planning menus.
If dinner is substantial, the final
course of the three may we'll be light.
If, on the other hand, the meal is
light q substantial dessert will add the
right balance to the meal.
Accent Contrast.
A dessert should be as different as
possible to anything that has come
before it. For example, let us suppose
that you have had apple sauce to go
with the meat course of roast pork or
goose. Then avoid any dish with ap-
pies in it for dessert, such as apple pie.
brown Betty, apple tapioca, etc. Or
if you have served rice as a vegetable
do not serve it in another guise for
dessert, nor anything resembling 1t in
any way, such as tapioca. If you
have had dates in the salad do not
allow this fruit to appear in any guise
for dessert.
1t is well recognized fact today
that a varied diet is conducive to good
health. There is an opportunity to
have this variety accented by making
desserts. whether hot or cold, in de-
cided contrast to the rest of the meal.

called after the sort Of food that is
served, namely, sweets. Since fruit
follows this course. that is called des.
sert by our neighbors across the sea,
while we call this merely fruit. But
whether We call the course dessert or
sweets, there is no country that serves
a better variety than does the United
States. The dishes may be hot or cold.
Which is preferable depends not only
on the season Of the year, as, for in.
stance. hot desserts in Winter and cold
in Summer, but upon the sort Of
courses that have gone before.
Temperature Values.
When the dinner has consisted Of
hot soup. hot meat and hot vegetables,
a cold dessert provides more variety
than does a hot one. On the other
hand, when the soup has been omitted,
or when cold meat has been served as
the main dish, then a hot dessert is
particularly felicitous. If the three
course meal consists Of the main
course. a salad and a dessert. then
hot dessert is as welcome as cold one,
since it follows a cold course. II a
fruit cup is served in place of the
soup, making the meal start with a
cold course and not a hot one, then q
cold dessert may we'll be served, for it

Pushing Yourself Forward.

In business the habit OF putting
yourself in the spotlight is sometimes
a useful one.
The go.getter, the hustling, self
fident, business man or woman often
accomplishes a good deal. But IT'S
fatal mistake to try to carry tha'
pushing" act into social life.
OF all generally avoided pests the
pusher is the worst. You know the
type Doubtless you've met it often.
Florence is a regular pusher from
start to finish. She wanted to get In
with jeans crowd, but since Jean
didn't appear aware Of her existence.
she determined to take matters into
her own hands.
Meeting one Of Jeans friends, Gail,
at a tea one day, she exclaimed. rap
turously: 'Oh, my dear. I've been so
anxious to meet YOU. You're such
dear friend of Jeans and I'm so fond
Of her" .... re. --. ,...-
Gail was surprised, but she accepted
Florence's attentions in good enough
spirit. Only, when q few days later
she casually mentioned to Jean that
she'd met her good friend, Florence
Kingsley. and was told crisply that
Jean hardly knew Flo,, she became
ather annoyed
Florence blithely went her way. call
ing Gail up every other day and in
forming the world that she was a per-
manent member Of Jeans set.
In the end she got snubbed awfully
so badly that even those who laugh.
ed at her most felt several pangs of
pity for her. -.
She might easily have made the
grade II she hadn't pushed herself into
the circle aspired TO.
Eunice is another. type Of pusher.
She feels she has genuine ability in
dancing and singing-that it would be
a darn shame II the rest OF the world
| were deprived of the chance to see her
talent displayed.
So one day when she and a group
of friends were planning a party, she
| announced. calmly: About the mid
die Of the evening I'll do some enter
| ltaining-a dance and one or two songs,
you know"
Every one looked family surprised.
Eunice had done nothing wrong. but
somehow 1t rubbed the wrong way
her unsought-for offer to display her
| talents. ....,.. ...... .....
Nothing is more delightful than the
girl who doesn't have to be coaxed to
entertain others. ..--,.. o..
But it's much safer to wait till
| you're asked to entertain than to take
| it for granted that everybody is just
dying to see you perform.
And in the same way. it is much
better to wait for a friendship to form
| naturally than to attempt TO hurry It
by f1attery and insistent invitations.
The little pusher very seldom accom-
| plishes what she sets out to do. Very
! often she defeats her own object--re-
| ceives a thorough snubbing where she
had hoped to gain friendship.
Let others put you in the spotlight.
Don't push yourself into it.

FIGHT OVER KLAN

Alabama Convention May Be
Asked to Insert Plank Op-

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. August 1S.-
Republicans who gathered here today
for their convention are expected 10
have a lively debate whether or not
an anti.Ku Klux Khan plank will be
inserted in their platform.
1t is said Probate Judge Louis
REYNOLDS of Chiffon County, dele,-

nouncing the Klan and will attempt
to put the anti Khan plank in. He
was outspoken in his denunciation
of the secret order, in which he SAID:
II am against the hooded Khan. L
intend to offer a resolution specincal-
lv directed against invisible govern
ment and l am going to insist that
the Republicans of Alabama make
invisible government an issue in the
forthcoming gubernatorial campaign.
From Democratic leaders, 1t was
rumored Judge Reynolds effort
would be unsuccessful, because OF
their belief that a large number Of
klansmen would be found among the
Republican delegates. Expressions
from some Republican leaders indi-
Gated that they wished to keep the
Klan issue in the background. while
others were Of the opinion that an
anti-klan plank would meet strong
opposition from some factions
The official statement from the
Klan that AL Smiths name would be
scratched by Alabama Klansmen If
he headed the national Democratic
ticket, has apparently given comfort
to the Republicans. as they see an
opportunity to split the Democratic
ranks. Democratic leaders declared.
however. that this statement on the
part of the Klan did not foreshadow
