out and laid it on the bank with the
place he had marked on the stick
right at the edge Of the bank. he
was measuring. OF course the nest
must be just as far in as he had been
able TO push the stake. ThereIore the
nest must be right under the END
of the stick when he had put it on the
bank. Then he took a, shovel and
with this he began to dig near the
end of the stick.
Peter Rabbit was fairly pop-eyed
with curiousity. Yes, sir, he was fairly
pop-eyed What could Farmer
Browns Boy be doing? What could
he be doing, and what could he be
doing it for? Peter noticed that Far
mer Browns Boy was very careful in
the way he dug. He was very care
full, indeed. Peter fairly danced up
and down with curiosity. He had a
feeling that it was something to do
with the nest Of Rattles the King
fisher.
Meanwhile, Rattles and Mrs. Rat
ties were terriably excited and wor-
ried half to death. They had learned
to trust Farmer Browns Boy, just as
so many other little people had learn
ed to trust him, and now all their
trust and faith were upset. 1t was
quite clear to them that Farmer
Browns Boy was trying to get to their
nest and they didn't think it would be
for any good purpose. They sus-
pected he wanted to get their eggs,
which it happens wasn't at all what
Farmer Browns Boy really did want
to do.
Redwing the Blackbird discovered
what Farmer Browns Boy was do
ing. Redwing knew where that nest
was and he, too, became greatly ex.
cited. Like Rattles and Mrs. Rattles
and Peter, he couldn't understand
what Farmer Browns Boy could be
after unless it was those eggs, and
that didn't seem like Farmer Browns 8
Boy at all. Meanwhile, Farmer
Browns Boy went right on digging.
He had first cut out a piece of sod
Rattles was the first one to notice
that Farmer Browns Boy was not
digging exactly over the nest. He
was digging little bit to one side.
That made Rattles feel q little bit
better. Yes, sir, that made Rattles feel
"a little better. You see, he thought
that Farmer, Browns Boy was going
to miss that nest altogether and so
no harm would be done. But just the
same he was anxious and he and Mrs.
Rattles sat where they could keep
watchful eye on all that happened.

to see into that home TO discover that.
You see, when he discovered that Mrs.
Rattles was around only long enough
to catch a fish, he knew that the rest
of the time she must be sitting on
those eggs. How he did wish that
he could peep in and see those eggs
on that queer bed of fish bones, which
Danny Meadow Mouse had told him
about.
One day as Peter was hidden on the
other side Of the Laughing Brook,
watching the entrance to the home Of
Rattles, he saw Farmer Browns Boy
come along. He saw right away that
Farmer Browns Boy knew where that
home was. Farmer Browns Boy cut
q straight, long stick. Then he stamp
ed on the bank. This was to frighten
Mrs. Rattles. Out she came in a
hurry. wondering what it was all
about. Then Farmer Browns Boy
lay down on the bank, reached over
and pushed that stick into the hole.
He pushed it in just as far as it
would go. Then he marked the spot
on the stick where the edge of the
entrance was. Then he took the stick

Courtesies i'm Correspondence
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

| city or local is used. It may be
| that the person replying to the letter
| is not at the time in that city or To-
| cality Then the answer never reaches
| its destination, and the person who so
carefully inclosed the addressed and
stamped envelopes enormously sup
poses a reply was never mailed. Be
sure the address is explicit and clear.
Letters to Shops.
When writing to stores for informa-
tion about goods that one plans to
buy it is wise rather than neces-
sary TO include a self-addressed and
stamped envelope. A quicker reply
is apt to come. but the cost of postage
is one OF the expected amounts to be
calculated under the loss side of the
profit and loss column with business
firms. 1t is courtesy, therefore, as
well as wisdom, to have the stamped
envelope inside, and business houses
certainly appreciate this thoughtful
ness.
When S. A. S. r. Is Needed.
When something is offered gratui-
tously to persons sending in a request
for it an S. A. s. f. is absolutely ex-
pected whether so stated or not. The
person sending the thing, whatever it
may be, should not be at a loss in this
matter of envelope and postage If
there has been an oversight and the
s. A. S. e. was omitted, failure to re-
ceive the article is accounted for
easily.
Return Addresses.
Return addresses are advisable on
all envelopes whether used for social
correspondence or for business pur-
poses. If for the latter, however, the
detail of such an address should never
be forgotten. The post offices over
the country are asking to have such
addresses put on letters. Sometimes
the question, "Has your envelope
return address on it?" is pasted above
mail boxes in post offices.

HOME NOTES

We would all like to have priceless
antiques, of course, but we all can't,
and perhaps it is just as well. If we
did have, we would never have learned
to be so ingenious about painting our
own inexpensive reproductions of an

ture can be made very, very lovely,
indeed, with just the right color

These pieces were all purchased un-

THE FINAL FESTIVAL PROGRAM.

clUded the playing of the complete
cycle of 16 string quartets written by
that genius and also the famous
Grand F'ugue." which have been so
earnestly and sincerely presented be.
fore Washington audiences by the
London String Quartet, was brought
to its conclusion at the Library or
Congress amid enthusiastic applause
and lingering of the crowds to IN
dicate appreciation Of the quartet s
efforts yesterday afternoon. The mem
bers of the London String Quartet,
each deserving a special vote or
thanks from the local musicians and
music lovers who attended the six
programs. are James Levey, first
violin; Thomas Petre, second violin;
H. Waldo Warner. viola, and G. war
wick Evans, violoncello. The patroness
Of this chamber music auditorium
Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge, whose
foundation" has made such rare
treats possible, also should have few
extra leaves added to her laurel
wreath for this latest achievement.
Prominent in the audience showing
keen enjoyment and enthusiasm over
the performance yesterday was Mrs'
Calvin Coolidge. AS usual during TINS
festival, the nan was 0lleu 10 CdpdSIsy .
The quartets played were Opus 1872
in A minor, and Opus 1876, in F major.
The first of these, with its unusually
religious beauty of the "Canzione
movement, was impressive in it's organ
qualities as brought out by all four in.
struments. Then came the Grand
Fugue," Opus 1873. in B fiat major
which, as the program notes stated
was first intended as the finale to
Opus 1870. The overture was full or
terse, dissonant phrases, like voices
in great protest. The more solemn
rhythms of the fugue with its mastery
3ontrapuntal conception provided great
contrast and effective climax. The
modern" quality of the last quartet,
which was played here earlier in the
year by the Curtis String Quartet, was
especially evident at the end of this
series and it's lovely third movement
with "cantante tranquillo" mood lin
