sv-ing them is To keep perfectly still.
Then. unless they happen to get your
scent, to smell YOU. they are almost
.-ur,. to show themselves. Even when
they know you are about they often
viii forget or think you have moved
ON. providing YOU keep perfectly still.
All this Farmer Browns boy knows.
1t is one reason he knows so much
about his furred and feathered friends.
For long long time he has been
Il silent watcher. lie has found that
il pays. So II was that after leaving
the deer yard" where Lichtfoot and
lis family were doing nicely despite
the crust on the snow. he stopped
every little way and stood motioness
and silent while he looked and listened
and waited
At last he reached a Clump Of Young
hemlock trees. and as he peered out
from the midst .of these he saw, or
though he saw. a brownish form
sneak out of sight.
Il believe that was Yowler the Bob
cat" thought Farmer Browns boy
Yes, sir; I do believe 1t was. 1t
isn't often ! have a chance to see him
in broad daylight. | don't think he
saw me. He didn't act that way. I'll

In fact. Farmer Browns boy had
about decided that waiting there was
wasting time and that he would move
on. Before he had moved he looked
carefully as far as he could So" be
tween the trees. There WAS IoWler re-
turning. Farmer Browns boy chnckled
silently as he noted how IoWler
snealied along when there was no one
about to see him far as he knew.
''He is a natural born sneak" thought
Farmer Browns boy. Il wonder what
he is up to here

STOPPED and crouched. his eyes fixed
on Il certain spot. Ills stub Of i
tail, which is hardly enough Of tail
to lie called Il tail, lWitchel. Once
in q While he would turn his head
10 glare all around. Then he would
iN his eyes on that particular spot
again. Finally. very softly, he stole
forward and began to scratch the
crust at that point. But he didn't
scratch long. Then he resumed his
Watching.
That is queer" thought Farmer
Browns boy. why is he 50 in
tcrested in that particular place.
Presently he saw Reddy Fox com
ing along through the Green Forest
Very handsome Reddy looked. for
his coat never was finer and his tail
never bigger. Yowler had disappeared
Just before Reddy came in sight As
Reddy drew near the place Yowler
had been watching he stopped SO sud
denly that one black paw was held
up in the air. He cooked his head
t" one side and listened his black
ears pricked forward. 1t was plain
that he heard something. and as he
was looking straight at the spot where
ioNiti Hdd ptth scratching II was
a safe guess that whatever he heard
was under the snow right there.
He was still standing there when
Yowler returned and Snarled at him.

make sure that YoWler meant what
he said. Then with Il grin Reddy
started on straight toward Farmer

CHAPTER NXIII.
On With the Dance.

ROSalind'S depression lifted under
the influence of music and admiration.
She remembered. top that Dorothy
had asked her to be nice to NiCky
Blake. and she determined To do her
best Didn't Niclly Blake have sCads
Of money, and hadn't Rosalind deter

haps this was the man who would
some day he her husband. Perhaps
there would come a time when she.
too. would live in an apartment on
Park avenue and own her own car.
Then. too. why should she be depress-
ed because Dorothy was unhappy

own would very likely be different
She danced with Nirky and tried to
ignore the fact that he held her I'M
comfortably close. She tried TO laugh.
too, at the idea that she didn't like
the way he looked at her. In short
she tried "a make herself as faScinat-
ing AS possible in the hope that he
would like her, ami she succeeded too
well.
During her second dance with him
he tried To draw her into the library
which was dimly lighted. There was
something about his attitude in doing
this. something furtive that made
RoSalind's flesh creep. She did not
want to be alone with him. and in des-
peration. although she tried to appear
airy and light, she turned from him to
dance with Tony. who had been

But. if possible. dancing with Tony
made her still more uncomforta BILE.
Tony held her as tightly as Nicky had.

Relative Values.
1t is indeed true that ii takes either
time or money to acquire things, and
ii is also true that 1t takes some eX-
penditure of each to get them. If YOU

to get to the shop and make the pur-
chase. If the article is made. time
must be spent in making it as well as
in getting materials. etc. Less money

hut more time. And we see that
time spent is money saved. The re-
verse is also true that money spent is
time saved. The two things time and
money, which are SO entirely differ
ent. have relative values. neverthe-
less.
Time and Money.

Time Is her great asset. How she

1.-THE SON OF THE sHlEK."

''The worlds greatest lover" it at e
again. In an Arabian makeup of the
comic-opera stage, Rudolph Valentino
loves 'er, treats 'er rough, and finally
marries 'er" and the women who
crowd the theater sigh throughout,
audibly give approval in each kissing
scene and no doubt go home thrilled
to their very marrow. (What a poor,
insignificant, colorless creature the
husband must seem in comparison!)
Without question 1.-THE Son of the
Sheik" will bring Rudolph back into
the high favor of the days of 1.-THE
Sheik." And the picture is worth
.seeing-really. 1t moves rapidly, does
not hold dull moment, is capably
acted, is given good settings and
whether you are colorless male who
hates matinee idols or an adoring
one of the tender sex, you are both
sure to get plenty of entertainment,
despite the obvious hokum the picture
is filled with.
Valentino plays both the sheik and
the son, and the boy knows his stuff"
Over-acting there is aplenty, but If
you are not too critical you will enjoy
it. 1t is all so cleverly put over to at
tract romantic woman into whose
drab life in the kitchen, factory or
office SO little romance can creep in.

A PEEK EACH WEEK
AT MOTION PICTURES
BATTLING BUTLER"


CORNELIUS VANDERBILT, JR., fur
~ nishes current example of poor
little rich boy who can make his mark
in the world despite the terrible handi-
cap of family wealth-at least he filed
the bill up to the time family support
was withdrawn and he went busted.
But even this slight slip-up fails to
dim the capitalist newspaper sympa-
thy which the brave fellow receives.
And in the movies, Battling Butler"
showing this week at the Oriental,
features another remarkable rich guy
who shows Ito the movie directors
satisfaction, anyway that he is made
of the real stuff" despite his old man
and all his ducats.
Such a theme is somewhat less in
digestible in the movies than in the
newspapers, however, especially with
Buster Keaton as the dough( t)y
youth. The dear boy goes out to
trough it" with an equippage almost
as magnificent as that of Abdel Krim
going into exile" But for Abdel,
tbs said, arrangements had been made
for some thirty potential wives; while
John Butler, Jr., was almost by his
lonesome, save for his faithful valet.
This valet, however, was veritable
Aladdin. Whether young John wanted
his fishing costume, or chicken a la
wing, or merely a little more sun
IoI. oI1 10 ~ 40 70
arrange it, and the valet did the rest,
even to the point of arranging bride.
But keeping the bride illusioned as
to the expected masculine qualifica-
lions of weakened but rich John
tested the Wallets faculties to such an
extent that he was forced to resort to
trickery. Here the plot begins to
thicken and finally it gets so thick
that even a movie fan can't swallow it..
But, as movies go, Battling Butler
is a knockout. Laughter aids diges-
ton, you know; that's why it's best
to go only to comedies, even if their
chmaxes are half-baked.
AZ fer Paul Ash.
The less said, seen or heard Of Paul
Ash and his merry-mad gang the bet
ter. This week he advertised q pro-
gram Of Russian jazz, 'FPaulsky Ash
ovitz in Moscow" Those unacquainted
with this peddler of old ragtimes had
the notion that, at any rate, burlesqued
Russian music might be heard. Some
body's Losin' Susan" this was Paul
Ash's own contribution to the rus
sian" performance, unless it was he
who provided the satin peasant"
blouses and the Santa Claus boots.
It should be mentioned, tho, that
Monte Blues brother Ben was almost
humorous. If only he had been in
