the North, were disconnected. This was
especially true of the willful young
gander. He and some of the other
young birds talked 1t over and they all
agreed that Honker was getting too old
for leadership and that such everlaSt-
ing watchfulness was silly.
I'm going to do as please" asserted
the willful young gander. IF I want
to take a nap on the shore, I'm going
to take nap on the shore"
you'd better not let Honker catch
you doing it." said one of the other
young geese.
Il don't intend to let him catch me
doing it," replied the willful young
hurt him. The idea of being afraid
of anything here in this little pond!
Why, never saw quieter, safer place
in all my life. 1t is silly that we
should not be allowed to go ashore II
we want to. It isn't right"
So the willful young gander kept 9
watchful eye on Honker. He took great
care not to do anything more to draw
Honker's attention to himself. He
worked to the outside of the flock and
there he pretended to be entirely occu-
pied in preening his feathers, making
his toilet and in Cabling with his
neighborS. Some OF the older plr0S
were already taking advantage OF this
chance to take nap. They had their
heads tucked back under their wings.
The young gander pretended to do the
same thing, but he only pretended. He
wasn't asleep and he had no intention
of going to sleep there. Now and then
he used those big webbed feet Of his
to paddle himself little nearer the
shore, while all the time pretending
to be mapping.
At last he reached a position where
the house of Paddy the Beaver hid him
| from the sight Of Honker. He first
made sure by peeping around that
house that Honker had not missed him
At the point where he reached the
bank some young hemlock trees grew
very close to the water The young
gander slipped behind these. He was
certain that now he could not be seen
| by Honker or by any other member OF
! the flock The soft ground felt good
1t was just the place for comfortable
nap. The willful and disobedient young
gander settled himself comfortably. He
wasn't afraid. because he didn't be-
lieve that there was anything to be
afraid Of.

Honker, the leader of the big flock
|of geese resting in the pond of Paddy
the Beaver, deep in the Green Forest,
had decided to spend another day there
before moving on toward their home
in the Far North. Already the flock
had made long journey. but the jour-
ney ahead of them was far, far longer
They needed the rest. so Honker passed
the word around that they would stay
At the same time, Honker warned
the members of the flock to stay well

out in the pond while they rested. He
warned them especially not to take a
nap on the shore or close to the shore.
The older members of the flock, who
had many times made the long jour-
ney under Honker's leadership, made
no objection. They knew that Honker
knew what he was about and that If
he told them to do or not to do GER
tain things he always had good reason
therefor. But some of the younger
members of the flock, who never be-
fore had made the round trip from
the North to the South and back to

fact that the rediscount rate was not
going to be advanced beyond per cent
was old news In Washington last Thurs
day, but it has only now begun to per-
colate through from the Federal Re-
serve banks. Fear of an increase Is
only today beginning to be dissipated.
Certainly the Federal Reserve policy
has had the effect of striking terror to
those who think they can puzzle out
the future, and as for the small specu-
lator, he has tragically taken his losses,
sadder If not wiser than ever before. To
large extent the average man blames
the Federal Reserve Bank for his losses
and Goals Of fire are heaped on the
heads of those in the Government who
dare to interfere with the game OF
chance.
Business, however, which one might
have expected to be in the doldrums,
worrying about per cent for time
money, is so much more interested in
volume of sales, even If on smaller mar
gins, that the episode of the Federal
Reserves battle with the speculative
element in Wall Street Is only Incl
dentally of interest to executives.
They do fear, however, the conse-
uuenceS in the Autumn unless easier
money conditions or, to put it more
aptly steadier money conditions can be
brought about.
It is sterilization that is hoped for
by business, even If the general level
of borrowing costs is somewhat higher
than it used to be, and the banks are
faced with SO many new problems as a
result Of the changing conditions that
they are far from happy over the pangs
Of readjustment. Here, as in other
cities, they are trying to find new ways
to attract old depositors.

This papers editorials and articles on two subjects

State officials including the State Roads Commission They
were used to arouse Maryland citizens.
Completion of the extension of Rhode Island Avenue will
be celebrated at Hyattsve December and the occasion
will likewise celebrate the early completion of the highway
bridge the Baltimore and Ohio tracks making traffic
and saving much time
Washington people will be much delighted with these
big civic improvements Hyattsville folks who will have
Governor Rtche and many notable people with them that
day.
Opening of Rhode Island Avenue gives direct highways
from the District to the Baltimore Boulevard Hyattsve

Importance the great development of the suburban section
between Mt Rainer and Hyattsve to take place with
