OUR BEDTIME STORY
By THORNTON w. BURGESS

from here. I'll go a little farther and
wait again" So Peter waited until
Rattles the Kingfisher had gone back
to the Smiling Pool, and then scam
pered along down the bank of the
Laughing Brook. This time he went
farther than before, and once moro
hid in the long grass. He waited and
waited and waited, bat not a glimpse
of Rattles did he get although now
and then he heard his harsh rattle
farther up the Laughing Brook. After
he had waited long, long time, or at
least what seemed to him long, long
time, he thought of something. 1t must
be that he had passed the home of
Rattles without knowing it. He had
come too far. Yes, sir, that must be
the reason that he no longer saw Rat
ties the Kinfgsher coming and going.
That home must be somewhere be-
tween the place where he had last
hidden and the place where he was
then hiding.
Once more Peter decided to change
his hiding place. He poked his head
out over the edge of the bank and
looked up the Laughing Brook. A lit
tie way above was bend in the
Laughing Brook which shut off the
view. From just beyond that came
the sound of the unmusical voice CT
Rattles. That's the place for me-"
thought Peter. "rll hide just where
l can see around the bend and see
what l shall see"
Now all this time Peter hadn't once
thought of how unfair it was to be
spying on neighbor in this way. He
was just trying to satisfy his curiosity.
He didn't once think that 1t was not
the way one Quaddy should treat
another Quaddy. So his conscience,
which you know is that small voice in
side, didn't bother him bit as he hur-
ried over to his new hiding place.
There he could see above the bend in
the Laughing Brook, and almost the
first thing he noticed was big sandy
bank on the other side. But Peter
had seen big sandy banks before, and
he didn't think anything about this
one. Then he saw Billy Mink swim
ming up the Laughing Brook. He was
tempted to call Billy, but decided not
to. 1t would be fun to watch Billy
and see what he was up to. So Peter
held his tongue and used his eyes
instead.
Billy Monk seemed to be looking
for SOmothinp AS he swan along he
kept watching the banks of the Laugh
ing Brook, first one and then the
other. Where the water was deep
he swan, but where it was shallow
he ran swiftly over the rocks or along
the shore, every few steps stopping
to look and to sniff. 1t was very
clear that Billy was hunting for some
thing. Suddenly harsh rattle sound
ed from the direction of the Smiling
Pool. Rattles the Kingtisher was
coming. For moment Peter forgot
Billy Mink. When he thought of him
again Billy had disappeared. Yon
know Billy Mink can disappear the
quickest of anyone unless it is Shadow
the Weasel.
Now where did he go?" muttered
Peter, and then straightway forgot all
about him as he saw Rattles the King
fisher coming swiftly down the Laugh
ing Brook with little fish in his bin.
Peter felt sure that at last his pa
thence was to be rewarded

France to Build Road
to Grave of Clemenceau

La Rochelle, Franee.-To satisfy
tourists who seek to make pilgrim
age to the tomb of George Clemenceau
in the Colombes woodlot in Vendee,
and to please farmers who protest
against pilgrims tramping their fields,
the department of vendee has decided
to build road to lead to the woods.
In asking to be buried there Clemen-
ceau stressed that there were no roads
and that he could be assured of priv

study of malaria preventative and
cures but later turned to the research
in tuberculosis.
He claimed that he had discovered
a relation between the effects of both
diseases and that patients afflicted
with malaria had very especial re-

in the very rarest cases contracted
the white plague.
Garofali's system of fighting tuber-
culosis is to oppose it with malaria.

will you.
DETER RABBIT was cultivating 1t.
l To cultivate anything is to make
it grow. Peter is naturally impatient
when his curiosity is aroused, and so
he was finding it very hard work to
cultivate patience when he wanted so
much to find out where RattleS the
Kingfsher had made his home. But
he was beginning to suspect that just
as the longest way round is sometimes
the shortest way to given place, so
the practice of patience is sometimes
the quickest way Of finding out a
thing you want to know. So now as
he lay in the long grass on the bank
of the Laughing Brook little way be-
low the Smiling Pool watching Rattles
pass up and down just above the wa
ter he felt sure that he was doing the
wisest thing.
When Rattles flew down the Laugh
ing Brook he always had a minnow
or tiny trout in his big spear-like
bill. When he flew past toward the
Smiling Pool he carried nothing. "Just
as sure as Jenny Wren flirts her tail
he takes those little fish home to his
babies, and that means that his home
is down the Laughing Brook still far
ther." muttered Peter. 'Tll go little
farther down and watch again." So
Peter did. This time it was not near
ly so long after Rattles disappeared
with fish till he flashed past on his
way to the Smiling Pool "That
means that l am getting nearer"
thought Peter. ut can't be very far

 always been willing and prepared
 at any and all times to do our
 share. We have never. during all
 of the period of depression. failed
 of our appreciation of being em- ployed. The hundreds of good peo- pie we have seen thrown out of work, has had its effect upon us, the same as it has had upon the
 many thousands of others of our
 city.
 "Working in conjunction with those associated with the move ment commonly known as the Mu- tual Welfare association, we estab- lished a system among the mem
 bers. whereby weekly donations were made by each and every per- son connected with the depart-
 ment. This arrangement was put into effect October 15, 1880, and
 druing that time there has never
 been a default upon. the part of any member. For this, I congratu- late the personnel, not one of which has in any way questioned the object or the motive of the plan. As a matter of fact, they have congratulated the movers of the project.

Not only has the Forgotten Man' been remembered, but the forgotten woman and child" have also many reasons to feel appreci- ative of the efforts of the members of the Waterbury fire department during the past two years.
 According to Chief Henry H Heitman's official report to Mayor Frank Hayes, members of the de- partment have contributed $11,- 12g.62 of their salaries to aid the poor and needy of Waterbury.
 Before and since the 10 per cent cut in wages members of the de- partment pledged themselves to give 50 cents week to the de- partment's fund subscribed for the Mutual Aid fund. The average fire- mans pay IS little over $36 per week, so 50 cents represents some thing better than the customary one per cent.
 Members of both the fire and police departments were caring for needy families and making weekly contributions months before the so-called "Waterbury Plan" adopt ed and the employed of the city asked to give a certain per cent of their pay to care for the less fortunate.
 In his statement to the mayor Chief Heitman reported as follows:
 "The fire department has moi been forgetful of the much talked about Forgotten Man. or unmind- ful of the present day business

 Furnaces DURING COLD SNAP

To eliminate the danger of fires during the cold spell. which has gripped Waterbury, Fire Marshal D. J. Lahey has issued a warning to the public to be extremely watchful in the care of their fur naces, oil burners, fire places and stoves.

In clos ing places of business at night or banking fire at home the mar shal requests all to be careful.

Lasky presided and it was de- decided to wait on the mayor and present him with a petition signed by many names calling for changes in Ahe valuations. Edward Udelo- witz and Charles Crasnitski. the latter the city's communist leader, were among the speakers of the evening.
 John C.. Menasian of the Hart ford Taxpayers Protective league told how that body was organized. He expressed the opinon htat with a $16,O00,000 bonded debt the city of Waterbury must be bankrupt. He urged that new sources of taxes be tapped so that the burden on the property owners might be less- encd. He said that heavier taxes should be laid on the public utility concerns.
 Udelowitz, while denying that Waterbury is bankrupt, criticised the administrations. He recom- mended the adoption of a definite program. MT Crasnitski spoke briefly on the need of change in taxes here.

 Before the club got down to business Dr Solomon Vineburg not ed that there were many present at the meeting who had not formally joined the club. He informed the non- members that they could not sit in at the session. As a result, following the session, Joseph Matz- kin and Rubin Braverman, two of the members, announced that they will immediately form the In- dependent Jewish City league and expressed the opinion that they will be able to get membership up of 250.
 The committee named to wait on the mayor and town chairman in- cludes Dr Vineburg, Alderman DduHlcl, <AOl 4hdlHhAhs Nathan Freedman and Bernat Holczer. No endorsement of any of the candidates for the city court jobs was voted last night. Among the candidates are Attorney Irving Pasternak. Sidney Cassel and Jo- seph Davis.
