N EDDY FOX was far from home
- and in country strange to him,
and he was uneasy. It was all
i on account Of Blacky the Grow.
Late the previous afternoon
Blacky on his way home to the Green
Forest had stopped in the Ofd Pasture
where at the doorway Of his home
Reddy had been preparing to set forth
to hunt for something to eat. Blacky
had told Of certain plump hens he had
seen in an open dooryard unprotected
by q high wire fence. He had said that
they were far beyond Reddy's usual
hunting grounds In certain direction,
but had hirted that II Reddy should
happen to be hunting there the next
morning he, Blacky, might see him.
"The old Black rascal didn't say he
wouldn't lead me to the farm where
those hens are, but that is what he
meant" muttered Reddy TO himself for
the dozenth time as he waited for the
coming of daylight. II don't believe
he was trying to play trick on me.
I don't believe he would do that when
he knows how near to starving I am
and how hard 1t Is to get Just an oc-
casional mouthful. Perhaps I was fool
ish to come way of here where every
thing Is strange and I don't know the
hiding places or where to run If have
to run, but there are times when one
must take chances and this is one of
them. hope Blacky will come early"
Reddy had been travelling most OF the
night. At first he had hunted on the
Green Meadows. Early in the evening
he had caught a Mouse there, and that
had helped a lot. Then when he had
left the Green Meadows Of Farmer
Browns farm and crossed through bits
OF woodland, pastures and meadows of
other farms all covered with crusted
snow. and SO finally had reached coun-
try where he never had visited before,
he had hunted as he travelled. Al
though he had used eyes, ears and nose
as only he knows how to use them, that
one lone Mouse was all he had caught.
He was desperately hungry.
He lay down to await the coming
OF daylight and to rest, for he was tired.
1t was not easy to travel on a nearly
empty stomach. He chose a place where
ne could watch in all directions, curled
his big tail around over his nose to
Keep 1t warm, and tried to be patient,
But he was uneasy and that made it
hard to be patient.
Il hope" thought he, ''that there will
be no hunters out with dogs. The snow
Is deep but it Is crusted and hunters

I did not toss the coin, because-at

in favor of the letter written by Louise

letter goes:
IT am certain that there is nothing
which has helped me more in my school

the usual number Of Senators were On

his and two other desks that he might
have room. Senators were grouped all
around him. Many had moved from
the back Of the chamber and over from
the Democratic side to be closer.

Mrs. johnson takes q keen interest
In measures before the Senate and
seems to spend almost as much tame in
the chamber as does her husband.
Most Of the Senators listened to him,
too. Few left the chamber during his
address.
One Of the reporters Of debates In the
Senate man who has been copying
down In shorthand the speeches Of Sen

that he had heard Hiram johnson per-

TINE increasing use Of mirrors In
decoration leads to considera-
l. ton of how they should be
i placed. Too frequently one
enters q home where their
treatment has not been well thought
out, and rather than adding to its
charm does the opposite.
In speaking Of mirrors In decoration
the first point Of importance Is what
they will reflect. The filing Of
certain space with something agreeable
to meet the eye IS important. Now q
mirror used for decoration Is only at
> tractive in proportion to what is con-
tanned in the shifting reflection within
its range. A mirror Is well placed If 1t
holds pleasing vista within its frame.

Everyday Psychology

Remembering.

Remembering Is one way We have Of
referring to the past. Recalling Is
another.
There's q lot Of difference between
these two ways Of referring to the past.
When you remember something, you
re-envisage It with some knowledge of
where, when or how this past expert
ence came to you. To put 1t another
way, when you remember you recog-
nize what you recall. Or still another
way, when you remember something,
you have something specific In mind.
But when you merely recall you are
not very definite about 1t. You are
unable to say when or where or in
what connection. You have forgotten
what goes with 1t.
This difference between remember
ing and recalling Is In all probability
the main difference between human
minds and animal minds. Human
beings have the ability to remember at
least some things for some time. There
Is no evidence that animals do anything
but recall.
II you would Like to know what your
pet dog thinks about his past, try to
recall some Of your own experiences
which you cannot remember. Your dog
Is normally in the same mental condi-
ton you are in, when, for example,
you recall that you saw that person
somewhere, but can't say when or
where"

In louisiana, the home of Joseph

Is also Of cypress throughout. Both
houses are in perfect condition.
One Of the outstanding uses of
cypress today is in the manufacturing
Of outdoor furniture. On account Of
its lasting qualities and because It
takes the finish SO perfectly that is
used on trellises, arbors and garden
chairs, the demand for this wood Is
almost unlimited.

with their most relentless enemy, the

until, after battling for . thousand
years, the gnarled old veteran sue

The dauntless spirit Of these trees
never fails to thrill the tree lover. He
reads the story Of courage, patience,
lashing waves and searching, bitter

The tree Is Of ancient geologic lineage
and at one time the cypress and its
relatives covered the entire northern
temperate zone Of Europe and North
America, even extending up into
Greenland and almost to the northern
tip Of the Asiatic continent. At one
time the cypress grew practically over
the entire United States, going as far
south as Central Mexico. In numerous
swamps we find evidence Of recent
cypress forests.
The wood Is In great demand for
building purposes. Every part Of it Is
used, as It IS free from many ills which
affect other trees. Outside Of dis
ease called "pecky," which does not
amount to q defect, the wood is free
from disease. The black, white or red

is found in the tidewater swamps.
From the standpoint Of user. there

HINES ASKS VETS
TO SHOW PATIENCE
Assures Disabled Men U. S
Will Have Sympathy in
Reviewing Cases.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI, Ohio, June 28-Amer-
aca's disabled war veterans were assured
today by Brig Gen. Frank T Hines
that men of sympathy and human
ness" would be named by President
Roosevelt to review their cases.
Hines. Federal administrator of vet
Grams affairs, addressed the convention
OF the Disabled Veterans of America be-
fore going into conference with the re-
habilitation division Of the organization
to hear what the D. A. v: expects the
administration to do in the handling
OF disability claims of veterans.
Sympathy and humanness, rather
than technical training, would qualify
appointees to the reviewing boards
Hines said He asked the veterans to
show patience and fortitude until the
new regulations had been worked out
and proved, and then added:
"MSnifeStly. in dealing with such a
broad problem, it will be necessary to
make changes not only in the procedure,
but in the regulations The President
has indicated clearly that it is his de-
sire to make these Whenever just cause
Is shown for them. 1t will be the pur-
pose of the administration to carefully
investigate every angle of the problem.
not only by e who are directly
charged with tlresponsibility tl of the
administration Of the law, but others
who can give independent judgment in
connection with this matter"
