Bedtime Stories
What Blacky Saw.

something he could eat was tossed
out from an automobile. He had
finished the remnants Of many q
lunch obtained in this manner.
This time, however, there was moth
ing to eat. No, indeed, there was moth
ing to eat. Instead, a. he lowered
there, he saw a tiny thread Of smoke
rising from the place where that
thing had been tossed. Blacky knew
what that smoke meant. He knew
that only where there Is the Red Ter
ror, which is called fire, can there be
smoke. He few to The top Of tall
tree nearby where ne could watch.
He wss troubled, was Blacky the
Grow. He was greatly troubled. He
knew that something was wrong but
he didn't know just what to do
about 1t.
At first there was only thread Of
smoke. Then he saw something red
in the brown leaves, ana that thread
of smoke became thicker. A little
yellow flash leaped up and then an
other and another. A Merry Little
Breeze came dancing along. and the
little yellow flashes leaped higher. A
black spot began to spread and the
thread of smoke had become thick
pillar of smoke. The little flashes
were now leaping yellow and red
flames, spreading out and burning all
the leaves and dead branches on the
ground. They began TO leap up In
the bushes. They came to small
pine tree and ran up to the very top.
Blacky looked anxio,lsly along the
road in each direction. He hoped he
might see an automobile with men in
it. for, out of long experience, he had
learned that only men could control
the Red Terror. There was no auto
mobile in sight 1t was lonely spot
there. 1t was quite a long way from
the nearest house. The Red Terror
was now sweeping along through the
woodland at astonishing speed, for
the rapidity with which fire spreads
is always astonishing.
Cav! Caw!" cried Blacky, and
spreading his wings stalled back for
home in the Green Forest. He wanted
to give the alarm, for The Red Terror
was headed that way and he knew
what it would mean if it should sweep
over the Green Meadows and the
Old Pasture and through the Green
Forest. The drouth had brought suf-
fering enough, but the Red Terror
would bring more, much more. The
drouth was no ones fault. but Blacky
knew that the Red Terror was the
result of mans carelessneSs. Had he
not seen that lighted cigarette thrown
from that automobile?

oceans would become beds of salt.
Plants would die, and animals
would die. When we could no longer
obtain plants to eat or water to drink,
ne should die. 1t is possible for 8
human being to obtain water from
plants. Once upon a time, my father
went without drinking water for three
or four weeks, but he ate a large
number of watermelons!
Happily, the earth is not likely to
lose its water. We have self-acting
system. The sun turns water into
vapor which rises in the air; but it
comes down again in the form OF
rain, snow, hail and sleet. The same
water Is used over and over again.
1t is possible to obtain fresh water
from the sea by "distilling" salt
water; but 1t would be great trouble
to get our drinking water that way.
Nature has given us fine supply
Of fresh water. 1t is to be obtained
from springs and deep wells. and,
with proper safeguards, some cities
get their water supply from rivers and
lakes.
People Of the old Stone Age prob
ably did not have wells of any sort;
but they made use of springs and
streams and lakes.
The time came, however. when
some one found that he could dig in
the ground and reach q level of
water. There are many places where
the level of underground water is only
q foot or two beneath the surface

NOW that the first flush Of success
and the excitement attendant
thereupon have passed away, light
weight Summer clothing is beginning
to lind ITSELF more and more each
season. In other words, it is catching
up with current trends and going
through what might be called q
process of fashion refinement.
A case in point is the Seersucker
suit. This was introduced in the
regular even-spaced candy stripe OF
gray and white, brown and white and
blue and white. Its success was i'm
mediate, but 1t still had some dis
lance to go before catching up with
the fashion vanguard.
The first significant strides In the
right directions were taken last season
with the introduction of seersucker
patterns in very fine checks and Glen
Urquharts This year, to carry on the
good work, the fabric Is being made in
q check effect, which is quite smart
and fltS the current fashion picture.

THE surname has a very illustrious
:, history. 1t dates back to the
Earls of Anjou, who assumed it as
their cognomen after their pilgrimage
to the Holy Land. 1t is said that they
did so because Of having worn a sprig
of broom plant as a symbol of humil-
ity. There later sprang up many local
names of Broom in England. The
name is found as a place name in
Counties Norfolk, Suffolk, Stafford
shire, Bedfordshire and Durham. Sew
eral surnames have grown out of the
name Broome, and represent distinct
families altogether-such as Brooman,
Broomfeld, Bromley, Broomhall.

bears as its principal charge the SYM

and it is likely that early folk first
learned to make wells by digging In
such places.
In later times wells were dug to
greater depths. 1t was learned that
water from deep wells is purer. as a
rule, and more pleasant to drink.
Clay jars and jugs were made to
hold water, and In some parts OF the
earth people especially women
learned to carry jars of water on their
heads.

The Old Gardener Saws :

Poppies are among the an
nuals which can be planted very
late, even up to Midsummer. 1t
is best, however, to plant them
where they are to bloom because
they do not like to be moved.
The seeds are extremely fine and
there is always danger that they
will be put into the ground too
deeply, thus delaying termination.
One good way to handle them i.
to mix them with an equal
amount of clean sand. There is
less likelihood of sowing the seeds
too thickly when this plan is fol-
lowed, but even then 1t will be
necessary probably to do q little
thinning. The plants should stand
I or inches apart when they
reach blooming size.

DARLING RESIGNS
AS BUREAU CHIEF
GabrieIson Will Succeed
Cartoonist as Head of
Biological Survey.
Rv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
j. N. Ding" Darling, critic Of ad-
ministration machinery and friend OF
the wild duck, has quit his job as
chief of the Bureau Of Biological Sur
vey to return to his cartoon drawing
board.
The resignation, effective November
IS, was announced by the Agriculture
Department while Darling was in De-
troit.
The cartoonist, who. by his own ad-
mission, doesn't care whoop for
Democrats or Republicans. will be
succeeded by Ira N. Gabrielson, now
consulting specialist to Darling and
assistant chief Of the Division of Wild
Life Research. Gabrielson. native
of Iowa, has been connected with the
bureau since 1915.
Blunt-spoken, explosive In his man
ner caustic in condemnation of what
he said was governmental red tape and
inefficiency, Darling left his home in
Des Moines, Iowa, to become head OF
the Bureau of Biological Survey in
March, 1884.
Boosted Conservation Program.
In taking the appointment. Darling
became the head of movement for
which he fought for many years as a
cartoonist and as an individual-to
preserve and replenish the Nations
rapidly vanishing supply of migratory
wild fowl He disclaimed any in
terest in politics, except where such
interest might be used to conserve
ducks and geese.
When Darling decided governmental
red tape was snagging his program,
he spoke out sharply against cabinet
officers and Congress alike. He was
promised money for his program, but
weeks passed with no appropriation.
He told Congress if he didn't get the
money he would resign. He got the
money.
Typical of his disdain of some gov
ernmental policies was Darling's pur-
chase with his own money of expensive
furniture for his unpretentious Office
waiting room.
I'm tired of my friends coming to
see me and having to sit on these
park benches the Government put
here" Darling explained.
He wrote vitriolic magazine articles,
criticizing lack Of coordination of
Federal agencies working for conserva-
ton. He emphasized his points in
letters to high officials with caustic
cartoons on the stationery margins.
Cites previous Obligations"
In a statement prepared with his
resignation, Darling said he would like
to stay longer. but previous private
obligations were prohibitive.
Il have come to realize" Darling
said after commencing Gabrielson,
that most of our wild life conserva-
ton troubles are due to lack of Or
ganization among those who are in.
terested but ineffective in the con-
servation Of wild life. There is no
nlassed strength to enforce adequate
legislative and executive attention to
wild life interests. Every other ele-
ment Of American life has a national
organization to get effective results.
Wild life interests remind me Of
an organized army, beaten in every
battle, jealous and brave but unable
to combat the trained legions who are
organized to get what they want"
Commenting on the resignation,
Secretary Wallace said he was sorry
to see Darling leave and that he
leaves an invigorated Government
bureau that is much better equipped
to carry on because Of his work there"
