BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.
A mothers pride no limit knows;
DO what she will, it always shows.
Old Mother Nature.

Ut WAS all true, that story OF
Sammy jays about a mother Cat
who had adopted three baby
Il Squirrels and was bringing them
up with her own two kittens, who
were of about the same age. Those
three baby Squirrels had been taken
to that mother Cat by Farmer Browns
Boy and you may be sure that he had
not left them with her until he had
been certain that she was going to
adopt them and love them. There Is
no mother love greater than the
mother love of Cat. No, sir; there
is no greater mother love. When that
love has been aroused by babies Of her
own, mother Cat is ready to adopt
and mother and love any helpless
babies that may be brought to her.
even the babies Of her enemies.
These baby Squirrels throve on the
care that mother Cat gave them. And
such care as she did give them. Per-
haps it was because they were little
smaller than her own babies that she
seemed to watch over them and look
out for them even more than she did
for the two kittens. And such pride
as she took in them. She was proud
mother. Indeed she was. She showed
it to whoever stopped to look at her
with her queer family, and you may
be sure she had many visitors. There
were people who would not believe 1t
until they saw it with their own eyes
that a Cat would mother Squirrels.
The kittens got their eyes open
first and it seemed to them as II
Mother took even more care of the
little Squirrels. When they got their
eyes open they began to crawl about,
and such watchfulness as there was
on the part of Mother Cat. If they
got out of the basket she promptly
brought them back. If she saw
through the open door a strange Dog
in the yard she was instantly on her
feet, with her tail swelled and her
back up and all her fur standing on
end. She was ready to protect the
babies.
The older those baby Squirrels grew
the greater her pride in them seemed
to be. She almost neglected her own
babies. OF course, the little Squirrels
soon became lively and began to run
and climb about. Then was Mother
Cat at times almost distracted. She
wasn't used to children who could
climb as these could. But always
they came back to her to be fed and
to snuggle up to her to sleep.
OF course, their own mother saw
them. In fact, she saw them fire.
quently, for after Happy Jack had
told her about them she just couldn't
keep away. She was over there every
day. Once, when nobody was around
and the shed door was ajar, she VEN
tured to poke her head inside. She
didn't try it again. No, sir, she didn't
try it again. That Cat fairly few at

or wandering rivers to guard. True,
some members of this great family
are mountain climbers, still others
have learned to thrive on dry ground,
but most of them prefer moist soil.
Since every land has its willows, it
Is not difficult to find one or more
cousins in the same State. Few of
them become very large. This one
reaches a height of so to 100 feet.
That is considered an accomplishment
for willows.
Willow wood, though weak and
light, has q valuable niche in the
world that its hardwood neighbors
cannot flll. 1t is greatly priced for
gunpowder and charcoal. OF course,
we are well acquainted with the spe-
cies whose slender branches are made
into wicker furniture.
Their greatest value to us lies in
their beauty and guardianship of the
banks of our beloved streams and such
places. Here they are faithful senti-
nels, indeed. Deep into the soil they
send their many roots. These form q
vast network along the edges and pre-
vent the water from eating deeply
into the banks.
Where nurse trees are needed for
slower growing trees in parks they
make very efficient windbreak.
The black willow Is so named be-
cause of the color of the bark on the
old trees. No other member of the
family has wider distribution, nor is
so determined to go unusual places.

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, May e.
States of the Balkan entente ended
their diplomatic discussions today with
communique announcing the four
nations were in complete harmony
on new guarantee Of peace.
Internal harmony was achieved ct
five lengthy conferences Of representa-
tives of Yugoslavia, Rumania, Greece
and Turkey.
Some diplomats expressed the opin-
ion the Balkan pact had somewhat
weakened its front toward the rest
Of the world. The contention, adj
vanced by the Greeks, prevailed that
members of the entente should not
be obliged to aid each other against
aggression from outside the Balkans.
This attitude was disappointing to
Yugoslavia, which sought strong al
lance against Italy, but she made the
concession to save the pact and give
1t internal strength.
As amended and defined, the pact
In a strict Interpretation seems to be
merely an alliance against Bulgaria
and possibly Albania.

And this brings us back to the question;
Shall the architect be modern or colonial?
Please. please answer at once"
In answer to all this, don't know what
these young friends of mine think they have
left for me to tell them! Except not to rush
off on Monday morning and decide on any
thing so important as building house with
out thinking seriously about every smallest
detail. Remember that nothing costs so much
as changing your mind after the building is
begun.
Obviously the very first thing to do is to
make a complete list of everything you want
and then, when your list is complete, under
score the must items and see how many
of the would like to-have" items have to be
modified or cut. Let us say the things you
must have include the seven rooms and three
baths you have mentioned, the air condition
ing, the electric and kitchen equipment, one
chimney with three flues - for cellar for
living room, and for your room?, and
garage.
And now comes the question of building
costs. The handicap in attempting modern
istic house is the perfection of finish which
this style needs. And yet l can think of
