I've been over here for several nights,
and not once have ] been disturbed"
Hardly were the words out Of his
mouth, when from the upper end Of
the cornfield came sounds that sent
cold chills all over Unc' Billy. Those
sounds were the voices Of Farmer
Brown, Farmer Browns Boy and Flip
the Terrier and Bowser the Hound
Bobby Coon dropped the ear of corn
he was eating and listened for Just
q second or two. He heard Flip the
Terrier bark and he heard Bowser
the Hound give an impatient whine.
That was enough for Bobby. He
waited to hear nothing more. He
turned and started for the Green
Forest. He was in a hurry to get out
Of that cornfleld, and, could you have
seen him, you would have been sur
prised at his speed.

Billy.
Bobby didn't wait. This was a
time when 1t was every one for him
self, and Bobby was concerned only
on reaching the Green Forest before
Bowser the Hound could catch ur
with him. II Unc' Billy couldn't out
run Bowser it would be just too bad
but there was nothing that he, Bobby
could do about 1t.

Unc' Billy was frightened. He was
very much frightened. How he did
wish that he had kept away from
that cornfield. He slid down from
the cornstalk up which he had Just
climbed, and he, too, started for the
Green Forest. But Unc' Billy isn't
much Of runner. No, sir, he isn't
much Of runner. When he thought
Of crossing the open Green Meadows
from the edge Of the cornheld to the
edge of the Green Forest, cold shivers
ran all over him. He felt sure that
he never could get across in time.
He was in trouble. He was in very
great trouble, and the one who had
led him into that trouble had de-
serted him.
There was shout behind him. It
was the voice of Farmer Browns Boy.
He was calling to his father. There's
been a coon herel" cried Farmer
Browns Boy. II guess it's a good
thing we came down here tonight.
Here, Bowser!"
! A second later Bowser's great voice
rang out, followed by the sharp, ex-
cited barking of Flip the Terrier.
Chills, chills of fear, chased each
other along Unc' Billy's backbone.
What should he do? What could he
do?

need q vacation, and Mr.. Riley said,
They need vacations the same as any
body eits, but they very seldom take
one because they've found from SAD
experience that fireman can never
get away from fires any more than o
berd can get away from feathers. My
own last vacation was q good tllistra-

Riley said, Well, Mrs. Riley wanted to
see this volcano. Mount Vissovius. It
seems winmin get funny notions, but
anyways I took her on q boat trip to
Naples, where this volcano has set
itself up. I thought I'd get q little
rest from fires, but on the contrary
one broke out on the trip before we'd
hardly pulled up the anker, and from
then on there was o fire aboard at
least once q day and sometimes 3 and
4 times, Mr.. Riley said.

there couldn't be any real danger from

decided to have o little fun at my

finely I had to recruit volunteer fire

said.

Mr.. Riley said, I don't know. but they

Natures Children
Western Pond Turtle (Chelopus
Marmoratus.)
BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY.

BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY.
~ VEN terrapins are afflicted with
- shyness. In fact, it is only
with determination and pa
- tience on your part that you
get more than q feeting glimpse OF
the creature. At the first indication
of an audience he rolls hastily on his
summing log into the water.
As this fellow Is the only fresh
water turtle of the Pacific region, with
the exception of a species found In
Lower California, you come to know
the stable fellows since they are al
ways established on rivers and ponds
of Washington, Oregon and California
and west of the Casade and Sierra
Nevada Mountains.
When fully matured the Western
pond turtle Is from 6 to inches long
and by this time his back Is quite
smooth. In his youth he had one
blunt keel on the center Of his back.
Each shield incloses great number
Of yellow dots or dashes. If dashes-
they radiate from the center of the
shield. The plastron (under shelD
has yellow centered shields and they
are bordercd In black close to the
edges. As q pleasing contrast his legs
cots that sometimes may be yellow.
The head is likewise decorated.
In spite of the extreme cautiousness
Of the pond turtle, in some matters,
he apparently tosses discretion aside
to gobble up the delectable bait dan
Cling from the anglers hook. His
greed is his undoing, for this Is usu-
ally the end o. his career.
In the grassy spots of the pond or
rivers the turtle loves to hide after
a hearty meal. This species always
feeds under water, in fact, he cannot
swallow a bite unless his head is sub
merged. Dead fish and the offspring
of aquatic insects are his choice re-
freshments. Pet porId turtles will eat
lettuce leaves If thrown on the water
in their tank
As a pet, he soon learns to take
food from your fingers. Then he hur-
ries down to the floor Of his home to
enjoy it. He has very strong biting
jaws, so be careful to keep your
fingers out Of his reach. He does not
wound you Intentionally. But how Is
he to know this is not a part of his
treat? Raw meat chopped fine, angle
worms or soft-bodied insects are to
him most satisfactory diet.
Whether you live in the East, West,
North or South, you can find terrapinS
on the borders of ponds, brooks, rivers
and even in the salt marshes along

Dance Recital

The Lisa Gardner Dancers and
members of the Washington Com
posers' Club combined to give a
dance recital last night in McKln-

should have warranted a full

presented and repeated were the
"Habanera" by Mary Howe and
interpreted in dance by Lisa
Gardner and Deane Shure'S "On
the Mount of Temptation"
A series of dance numbers Of
such pretense would have been
considerably enhanced had 1t been
possible to have an orchestra &C

be regarded as quite sacrilegiouS.

From the opening strain Of

the concluding spectacular end
ing Of "Daphnis and Chloe" the
tonal quality Of the orchestra
was superb.
With over 50 years behind
this orchestra, the we'll drilled
discipline of age and experience
made the performance almost
faultless. One could hardly note
the difference of as much as an
inch between the bow movements
of the various violinists.
While some may think the
unison bowling of a violin section
has little to do with results, yet
it makes just that difference
that puts the finishing touch on
the music, and shows the me-

work is prepared.
