BEDTIME STORIES ~ :. T ssssa:s

times when the coming Of sweet Mis-
tress Spring seems long delayed and
Peter becomes discouraged, he Finds
that he gets much help from just lis
tenine to the song of Pepper the Hyla.
Pepper always seems so sure that Mis-
tress Spring is close at hand that those
who hear him get the same feeling.
It was late in the afternoon. Peter
could see jolly, round, red Mr.. Sun
getting ready to so to bed behind the
Purple Hills. Peter moved. Instantly
the singing in the Smiling Pool stopped.
It was so silent that you never would
have guessed. that singer was any
were about. And 1t was all because
Peter had moved. You see, he had
Jared the ground ever so little, and the
nearest Hyla to him had instantly
stopped singing. That was the same as
a signal. If one stopped singing, It
must be for some reason. Therefore, all
the others stopped singing. So Peter
once more made himself comfortable
and sat perfectly still. In a moment
the nearest Hyla to him. having de-
cided that there was no danger after
all, began to sing. At once all the ether
Hylas began to sing.
Peter sat with his eyes half shut,
listening to this concert from the water
Suddenly he heard a wiistling sound
Instantly his eyes new wide open and
his two long ears stood up straight. In
fact, Peter sat right up. He recognized
that whistle. Only wings could have
made that whistle, and those wings the

That royal voluptuary. Louis XIV Of

Statement Is Quoted.
His statement said:

His statement said:
MANY of the headlines and news ar
ticles in the press referring to my testi-
nlony before the Senate lobby committee
on Tuesday, May 10, convey the impress
sion that said home brewing or the
making Of beer in the home was lawful
under the Volstead act.
II made no such statement and the
record shows that did not. was ques-
toned regarding speech by Repre-
sentative Fort in the House Of Repre-
seltatives in which he quoted from sec
ton % of the Volstead act as follows:
1.-The penalties provided in this act
against the manufacturing of liquor
without permit shall not apply to a
person for manufacturing n-intoxi-
eating cider and fruit juices exclusively
for use in his home
THE provision in question relates
solely to mountaineering cider and
fruit juices. 1t declares that the pen
atty for there manufacture exclusively
for home use shall not apply when they
are not in fact Intoxicating. The para
graph has no reference to the making OF
beer or home brew
The official record of McBride's tes-
timony shows he was asked by Chair
man Caraway of the lobby committee
If Representative Fort had not made a
speech in which ''he rather wanted to
upset the dry program. didn't he?" The
official record continues:
Mcbride think not.
Caraway--Well, was under the I'M
preston that he was for modification.
McBride-No. he said that the law
permitted the making of liquor in the
home. 1t was his Interpretation Of the
Law as 1t Is.
Later:
Caraway-You don't agree with his
Interpretation?
"Good Speech rs whole"
Mcbride now, we think that
was a very good speech that he made
as whole.
Caraway-That isn't what I asked
you.
McBride-That is his Interpretation.
! think probably he is right.
A little later:
Caraway-What I am coming to Is
this: am interested in the Anti-Saloon
Leagues attitude. Would you be salts
fed with the Interpretation of the act
that would allow every one to make
LIQUOR in his own home?
McBride-No-that-I think there
are certain phases to the law-I think
that under certain conditions liquor can
be made in the home without being a
violation.
