| Almost the same thoughts were pass

! big cousin, Blacky the Grow, who had

patch Just as Peter left 1t. without o

headed back for the Green Forest. He
hoped Peter hadn't noticed this, but
Peter had and had chuckled as he ran.
He had caught q glimpse Of Sammy
Jay, too, and he guessed that Sammy
was watching him. When Peter passed
q tree on which Drummer the Wood
pecker was ct work looking for borers
and saw Drummer suddenly lean for
ward to watch him Peter chuckled more
than ever.
Having reached the Green Forest
there was less need to hurry, so Peter
hoped along. lipperty -lipperty-lip
rather slowly. At length he reached the
big, old stump where he was In the
habit of meeting Whitefoot the Wood
Mouse. Whitefoot was nowhere In sight
so Peter hid under a little hemlock
tree and sat down to wait. He didn't
have to walt long. Blacky the crow

far away and began to cav in his usual

knew just where he was.
A moment or so later Sammy jay
appeared quite as II he had nothing in
particular on his mind and had merely
wandered that way. Then Drummer the
Woodpecker landed on the cid stump
and began to industriously look for
borers and grlbs. He was followed by
Yank Yank the Nuthatch. Soon Tom
my Tit the Chickadee arrived. Each
appeared to be intent wholly on his own
business, but Peter knew that that
business Just then was to try to find
out what had brought him, Peter, over
there Peter chuckled, but no one heard
his chickle.
Presently Whitefoot the Wood Mouse
appeared on the top Of the old stump.
He passed the time Of day with Drum
mer the Woodpecker, Yank Yank and
Tommy Tit, but he kept watchful eye
on Sammy Jay and Blacky the Grow,
especially on Blacky. He suspected that
q breakfast of tender wood Mouse would
not come amiss to Blacky, and in this
he was quite right.
Peter poked his head out from under
the little hemlock tree and then hoped
out In the most matter f-fact manner.
Whitefoot nodded and disappeared.
Then from an old log half hidden In
bushes there came little warbiing
song. Every one stopped what he hap
pened to be doing and sat perfectly
still to listen.

Opinions vary as to whether the force
meat should be put inside the chicken
or turkey or baked separately.
Some cooks believe that the force
meat draws flavor and juices from the
poultry and increases the length of
time required for cooking. But most Of
us are so used to seeing the stufnng
'gllsh forth" when the roast chicken or
turkey Is carved that we forget any dis
advantages Of that method Of cooking.

He wanted his neighbors to become so
curious that they would watch him so
as to try to find out the secret they
were sure he had in the Green Forest
It was all part of Peters plan to get
even with them for teasing him so
when he had first told about the
strange song in the Green Forest.
So it was that very early one morning
Just after jolly, round, bright Mr. sun

It is just the same way among the

1t was so. He wanted to be watched.

Quiet Time.

Life is growing noisier every day, 1t
would seem. Motor cars fll the streets
with their grinding and rumbling and
honking. The riveter sets his horrible
vibrations running through the very
masonry of ones house. The radio
screams and howls and screeches and
murmurs and sings at all hours. The
victrola does its share. Bells and whis-
ties and fiat wheels, airplanes, freight
trains, rag men, children, animals, ma
chimes, all lift their more or less melo-
dious voices and there is no quiet in this
world, not even in the churchyard.
What is TO become of the children who
must sleep, study, think?
always have believed that quiet was
essential for the growth of children.
Babes must have quiet days in which
to lie and Groom themselves into growth,
Growing little ones who have found
their legs must have quiet afternoons
for maps. Older children earnest in
school work must have quiet hours for
study and thinking and rest. All chill
dren must sleep long hours to rest and
refresh and reereate their bodies. In
our delight at discovering machinery We
are likely to forget the human being
who creates the need for the machines.
Laws are not helpful usually in such
never works unless the people will this
and that to be prohibited. We do not
want to throw out the radio and the
telephone and the motors and the rest
of the exciting, delightful things We
know and use, but we must come TO
some understanding of how to use them.
We would not destroy ourselves and our
children by misusing the machines that
are to provide us with delightly leisure
hours.
We like fruit and sweets and good
food, but We know that If we indulge
ourselves in any of the pleasures of the
table beyond a healthy limit we will
surely suffer We will bitterly repent
our indiscretion. We must acknowledge
the same condition In our use of the
modern machines.
1t is silly to turn on "a radio at 7
o'clock in the morning s4d keep it on
stupid to open your window and turn
your loud speaker into the courts of an
apartment house or into your neighbors'
windows. Photographs need not grind

family bit of music. Nor need motors
make so much noise.

Rating Stocks.

A thoroughly disilluSioned woman has
written us to declare her intention Of
maintaining q consistent 1ncredulity
henceforth. She has been specializing,
and only on stocks with the highest
of ratings.
Her losses have convinced her that
she can't beat the game" and one
stock is no better than another.
That is almost tantamount to dis
carding an automobile because it won't
n.y. or tossing an alarm clock out OF
the window because 1t lacks split
second hand.
A highly rated stock issue may be a
highly desirable long-term investment
commitment, and yet be absolutely
lacking in short-term speculative posi-
bilities.
One doesn't buy a race horse to haul
pay loads, nor a truck horse to race
against thoroughbreds. There is more
of an analogy here than you may sus-
pect!
Highly rated issues are rated on their
records of earnings, the financial con-
dition of their companies and the type
and class of their arrangements. Over
q period of years such issues should
show one reasonable capital apprecia-
, ton, together with regular income.
A speculative issue is like a race
horse. 1t is bought to show one a quick
profit. 1t Is not usually bought because

Many speculative stocks are utterly
