thing we may be there comes a time
when our stomachs grow tired of 1t.
This is true even of candy and ice

them. And it was just that way with
Billy Mink.
When he had started out that morn
ing Billy had had no particular plan.
He just trusted to luck to find some
thing besides fish to eat. He had
stopped at the Smiling Pool to pass
the time of day with Jerry Muskrat,
and 1t was while he was there that he
had noticed Rattles the Kingfisher fly
ing down the Laughing Brook with
a tiny fish in his bill 1t wasn't long
before he was back watching for an
other fish, and when he caught 1t he
took it off down the Laughing Brook.
This was enough for Billy Mink. He
knew right away what it meant. 1t
meant that somewhere down the
Laughing Brook was a home with
babies in it. The very thought made
Billy's mouth water. He cut his visit
with Jerry Muskrat short and started
down the Laughing Brook.

Wilmette, Ill.-Belated recogni-

Goldberg, holding honorable dis
charge papers from the army, was
granted a lifetime dog license. No
dog catcher can arrest him.
Goldberg went overseas in 1917,
trembling puppy in a doughboy's

command of the One Hundred and
Twenty-second, took no action.
Goldberg was gassed, shell

wound in one leg. He returned to
America with his regiment after
the war.

ALL ABOUT CRULLERs

THE deep stone crock filled, or
L partly filed. or just about to be
refilled with crullers was an institu-
ton of the old-fashioned household
that is seldom to be found nowadays.
Fortunately. no doubt, for children of
the cruller-crock generation doubtless
had too many of them. But crullers
once in a while are not unwhole-
some and they are really not at all diff
icult to make.
The best time to serve crullers is
for dessert at dinners. They are rath-
er too rich for between meals and
have little to recommend them for
breakfast. For dinner they are at
their best when served with apple
sauce which counteracts for the heavi-
ness Of the cruller, providing slight

Hoarding means the with

posit of funds in a savings or

curities, Is not boarding money.

In urging people not to hoard
money it is not meant that people
should engage in extravagant or
unnecessary spending. Thrift is
a desirable characteristic under
all circumstances. But boarding
IS the antithesis of thrift. Some
Of 1t always exists. But the prac-

springs from fear, and, already
