"The tax situation is a good :x.

taxes in effect for one year. and
many people benefited by 1t, but

Is just as important that counties
should be on a sound financial basis
as il Is that the state should be so.
Among other important parts OF
the recovery program in which
state action is absolutely necessary
is the social security legislation
with its old age pension allotments
Regardless of how meagre this
should be, the state should take

Well-most always. There have been

You can watch these famous hunt

notice the bird racing through the air,

The members Of this family arrive

Don't you think I have a little

Matched, it will be plenty warm
enough. Now let's get to work. I
want this nest to be the best nest
we've ever had"
Blacky knew just what was expected
OF him. He was expected to bring
his share of sticks Wherewith to make
the foundation and the outer walls
Of the nest. So he shrugged and
started off to look for a suitable
stick He didn't feel like nest-build-
ing yet, so ne went about his hunt
ing for material in a half-hearted
manner. Finally he picked up a stick
and few back to that tree. He found
that Mrs. Blacky already had placed
several sticks. He added his. He
waited around a few minutes Back
came Mrs Blacky with another stick.
She looked at the one that Blacky
had placed. Then she put down her
own stick, pulled out Blacky's stick
and tossed it away, putting her own
stick in its place.
That was no stick for nest, and
you know it!" she said. II told you
wanted this to be the best nest we
ever have had. If you can't bring
good sticks don't bring any"
"All right" replied Blacky, meekly,
and few off to hunt for a good stick.
He found one. and took it back, but
this time didn't undertake to put it
in place. He meekly offered it to Mrs.
Blacky when she arrived
That's better" said she, and deity
put the stick in place.
So slowly the platform which would
be the foundation of the nest grew.
It was a thoroughly good foundation.

the spirit and began to take a real
interest. When Mrs. Blacky discov-
cred this she no longer undid the
work that he did. So if she didn't
happen to be there when he brought
a stick, he placed it himself where he
thought it would go good, and usually
Mrs Blacky left it there.

on having it just as she wants 1t.
You remember that it was she who
had decided just where the new nest
should be built. Blacky hadn't liked
it: he had found several objections.
These hadn't made the least bit OF
difference. Mrs Blacky had made
up her mind where that nest was to
be. and that was all there was to 1t.
She had chosen a low but very
thick-growing hemlock tree in a part
of the Green Forest which hitherto
she and Blacky had seldom visited.
She had pointed out that this very
fact made it one of the best places
in all the Green Forest for them to
build
AS soon as it was definitely settled
that that was where they would go
Mrs Blacky began to get impatient
to start building, and Blacky said as
much.

THE SPORT
LIGHT

The Louis Athletic Club basket
ball team, champions of Duluth,
made it's initial appearance in the
Twin Cities last Friday night and
defeated the Halle @. Brown quin-
tet to the tune of 21-24. The game
was played before a good crowd,
the fans getting many thrills as
the Duluth boys showed their real
caliber by coming from behind
with the score 1912 against them
at the end of the first quarter.
The Duluth boys seemed to be
lost on the small Halle @. Brown
floor all during the first half. Their
shots went wild, their only accu-
racy being from the free shots CIV
en- them. However, they came back
after the intermission period to
show what real champions are
made of. Coach James Bell really
has done good job in training
these boys, they are clever ball
handlers and good f1oor-men.
Outstanding players on the
squad were: Capt. Albert Black, a
corking good guard, and a good
inspiration to his men; Rowan
Wiley, high point man; and Will
liam Jones, forward. For the
Halle, Capt. Robert Rife and
Rufus Carson were outstanding.
In the preliminary games, both
teams representing the Halle were
victorious. The girls team paced
by Hazel Warricks defeated the
Phyllis Wheatley girls, 21-15. Miss
Warricks scored II points.
In the other game, the Halle @.
st. Phillips Trotters defeated the
Restaurant China team, Pip. The
Trotters really made a neat appear
ance with their new gold and green
uniforms, made possible for them
by Mr.. Owen Howell. This same
team was champion of the inter-
mediate league last year and is en-
tered in the Gopher league, step
higher than it was last year. You
will be reading more of this team
later in the season.
