MIR. FORD has tackled a harder
WI iot than putting over a new
model automobile.
That IS telling other folk how to
be happy.
According to Mr.. Ford, happiness
is found in ambition and hard work
and that's just another MAXIM.
It's a formula, a recipe that
means nothing at all except
maybe to Mr.. Ford.
For while ambition and hard work
might make Mr.. Ford extremely
happy, it would very likely make
my cook extremely miserable.
Happiness can't be manufactured
like a Ford automobile, 1t is not
substance at all but an emotion,
And it is brief emotion-a flash
"a glimpse trailing robe-a
Whit Of perfume.
We never. possess it, we are only
aware Of it.
And because we can never possess
it, we prize it above all things.
HAPPINESS lies mainly in an
4 l. ticipation. 1t lies in having
desires that never are quite salts
fed but always a hope, or an
aim. or a vision of the future.
Once We get hold of the butterfly,
its wings collapsed in our hands,
and we have nothing left but dust.
There is a vast satisfaction for
the hunter when he shoots a deer,
Yet listen to him tell about shoot
ing that deer and he will dwell but
briefly on the actual shooting OF
the animal. Instead he will tell you
how far he walked. and how long
he stood. He will describe the be-
ginning of the hunt g. how the
idea was conceived and what toll
and trouble it was to get to the
hunting ground.
He will tell you about getting his
outfit together, about the first sup
per of beans and bacon under the
star-lit sky.
He will talk for hours about eV-
erything connected with this hunt
except the actual shooting of the
deer.
Yet it was for the purpose of put
ting a bullet into the deer's back
bone that he went out.
It was in squeezing the trigger
and seeing the deer collapse that
he expected to find happiness.
Yet when you press him down,
he found his chief happiness in an
ticipating that moment .. in the
events leading up to the great CHI
max.
THE lustiest sportsman l know
L finds his chief pleasure in OIL
ing his rod. in cleansing his gun, in
trying on his boots.
For weeks. he talks about a fish
ing trip. He gets his tackle together,
combs it over T., holds up a GER
tain kind of wooden minnoW and
delivers a panegyric on its virtues.
That bugger will get them" he
proclaims, as he holds 1t to the
light, twists it in his fingers, fondles
it, strokes it.
He goes about with a queer light
in his eyes F.. light Of exaltation,
of supreme happiness.
For in his mind, he is embarking
on that fishing trip. He is supreme
ly happy-but his happiness lies in
anticipation.
Actually, the morning of the trip
finds him a little sleepy. He grunts

high up from the ground. He had seen
Mrs. Wood Duck do this more than once
and each time he saw it he wanted to
pinch himself 70 make sure that he saw
what he thought he saw. 1t was very,
very hard work to believe that Duck
Of any kind would nest in hole in a
tree like Woodpecker or an Owl But
Beauty the Wood Duck had told Peter
that a hole i'll a tree or stump Was
always their choice for a home. So
there was nothing for Peter to do but
to believe Beauty and his own eyes.
Beauty had told Peter that Mrs.
Wood Duck would be sitting on the
eggs for two or three weeks. 1t would
have made it easier for Peter If Beauty
had told him exactly how many Gays
Mrs. Wood Duck would be sitting on the
eggs. You see, Peter wanted to be OH
hand when those eggs Matched. He
couldn't imagine how those duckling
were going to get down out of that
tree and Beauty wouldn't tell him. So
Peter was determined to be on hand
when the great event took place. That
meant that he had to spend Il great
deal more time over in the Green For
est, where from a safe hiding place he
could watch the hole i'll that tree, than
he really wanted to.
Every once i'll a while Peter would

for a chat with Beauty. Every time
he saw Beauty ne admired him more
You are the handSomest bird / have
ever seen" he declared.
You flatter me-" replied Beauty. But
it was plainly to be seen that he was
much pleased.
No" said Peter, 81 am not flattering
I really mean it. Did understand you
to say that you were Matched from an
egg in hole il a tree?"
Something of the Sort" replied
Beauty.
How did you get down to the water?"
asked Peter.
Beauty chuckled. 1.-THE same way
that those Ducklings of mine will get
down." said he, and his eyes twinkled.
IT'S mean of you not to tell me-" re-
piled Peter. Anyway I'm going to see
how those DucklingS of yours come
down"
Il hope you WILL" replied Beauty
You'll enjoy seeing them"
So it WAS that Peter pretty nearly
lived over i'll that part of the Green
Forest. He was seldom very far away
from that tree which was the home of
the Wood Ducks. And then one morn
ing his patience was rewarded. He saw
the queerest sight. It was so queer
that he fairly caught his breath watch
ing it. 1t was the young Wood Ducks
leaving their home in the hollow tree.

Little Mrs Peter Rabbit was quite

a great deal of time there. Really, lit

as much to Peter. In fact, she told it

Now. Peter is naturally good-natIred

temper. After he had listened to Mrs.
Peters complaints as long as he could,

home With this he turned his back
on little Mrs. Peter.
One could hardly blame Peter for
wanting to be out and about these
Spring days. There was a great deal to
see. There was much TO hear. If Peter
had been less curious it might have
been easier for him to stay in the dear
Old Briar-patch. But you know now
full of curiosity Peter Rabbit is. SO not
even his duty to little Mrs. Peter could
keep him at home. The one thing that
Peter was most interested in was the
home of the Wood Ducks. He had seen
Mrs. Wood Duck enter n certain hole in

persons on liquor charges was in pros

weeks to present evidence in behalf of
the accused persons, who include city
omcials and business men of Mullan,
Idaho. Their motion for directed YER
dict OF acQuittal was denied Saturday
BY Federal Judge J. Stanley Webster.
The Government closed its case by
@tAking four charges. These included
the accusation that Mullan city coun-
cilmen licensed" liquor dealers and
vice resorts; that they declared a
patriotic motive" for this action, saying
the city treasury needed the money;
that the city and county officers warned
rum sellers of Federal raids and that
they threatened persons who interfered

ned that the city officials acted on the
presumption that the community did
not want prohibition and that 1t ap-
proved the licensing of liquor establish

The prosecution conceded that no one
personally profited from the license
fees" and that all the revenue was used
for municipal expenses.
