- Yes, sir, It was q cheer

Peter Rabbit wasn't feeling cheerful
He wasn't feeling the least bit cheer
full. In fact, Peters feelings were
quite the opposite from cheerful. He
was squatting, all huddled up, In his
favorite place In the dear Old Briar-
patch. The whole briarpatch sparkled
and glittered. So did the Green
Meadows, which you never would have
guessed ever had been green. It was
lust the same with the Green Forest,
the Old Pasture and the Old Orchard.
The tiniest twig, every weed stalk.
even the trunk Of every tree. was In
cased in glittering crystal. Peter was
sure the whole Great World had
turned to ice.
There had been snow, Lot Of snow.
Then had followed q sleety storm, rain
freezing as it fell. Now jolly, round,
bright Mr.. Sun was shining and every
thing was very, very beautiful. But
no one could eat beauty, and every
body had to eat. This kind Of beauty
didn't satisfy hunger, it increased 1t.
That Is what Peter Rabbit might have
told you could he have told you any
thing.
Dee, dee, dee!" cried Tommy Tit.
'Why are you looking 20 glum,
Peter?"
Peter looked up. Tommy Tit was
fitting about in the ice-covered
bushes. It made Peter shiver to see
Tommy's little feet gripping those icy
twigs. He wondered why they didn't
freeze. "Such weather Is enough to
make anybody glum," replied Peter.
Tommy Tit made no reply Just then.
He was too busy getting a drink. He
had found tiny icicle which had be-
gun to melt because jolly, bright Mr..
Sun was shining on it. A drop Of
water clung to the tip. Tommy was
thirsty. He wanted that drop. He got
it. Yes, sir, he got 1t. He is an aero
bat, Is Tommy Tit the Chickadee.
Somehow he managed to turn upside
down under that icicle and take that
drop.
"Dee, dee, dee!" cried Tommy.

ibid you see me get that drink? That
was a lot more fun than getting q
drink in the usual way. There's an

Meath that drop. and somehow man

Needed Reform.

IN one OF his entertaining articles from
the convention Editor William Allen
White bids not-too-tearful goodbye
to the Democratic party of Jefferson and
jackson and Cleveland He indicates
that the convention band was definitely
in a reflective mood when it played
"Massa's in the Cold, Cold Ground"
And how long, one may ask, are we
to continue the rite of party conven-
tions as known up to now and as ex-
ernplifed at Cleveland and Philadel-
phia. The radio has worked change
in public estimation of conventions, and
there is no telling what its ultimate
effect will be. Without the radio the
conventions of the past were attended
chiefly by the delegates, and most of the
delegates were politicians. Being poll
ticians, the long -winded oratory and the
childish exhibitions OF manufactured en-
thusiasm, the illogical and long-drawn-
out arrangement of proceedings were in
the nature of bread and meat. They
were used to it and they thrived on it.
But now it is different. The radio
kas brought millions to the ringside at

Decades. however, will be needed to re-
store what has been lost.
Yet 1t should be remembered that
every individual citizen can contribute
toward the desired ideal. In little Euro
pean states like Holland and Denmark
the problem has been solved. The popu-
lation is land minded" to the point
where no scrap of ground is neglected;
every single square foot of earth is treas
ured, protected, developed and employed
in the national economy. At Essen, in
Germany, there are gardens, carefully
cultivated, within shouting distance OF
the great steel mills. 1t is possible to
ride for hours through the Reich without
once seeing an empty field.
The time will come as certainly as to-
morrow's sunrise when the United States
will boast the same social psychology OF
thrift. National parks forecast a similar
conservation of privately held real estate
The smallest back yards of city homes
can be improved, and eventually their
owners will be ashamed to permit them
to be anything less than beautiful.

'PILLARS OF HUMAN HAPPINESS"
BY THE RIGHT REV JAMES E. FREEMAN, d, IL d, D. c. L.
BISHOP OF WASHINGTON.

spirit IN these new nostrums and nothing
of Christian principles. The pillars of
human happiness" to these inncvators
are efficiency and prosperity and these
without regard to religion and morality
The thoughtful people of this country
are awakening to the perilS which these
new and novel schemes imply. We may
have wandered far from the old land
marks and been unresponsive TO our
avowed ideals, but when our house is
imperiled we are compelled to reckon
with those elements that constitute the
security OF our most cherished inStitu-
tions. II "life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness" are the fixed purpose of
the Republic, then we must restore those
pillars upon which the fabrics of our
national house is builded. To Washing
ton they were religion and morality.
UnSustained or indifferently esteemed
they shake the foundation Of the fab
ric," thus he reasoned. The rapidity of
our growth, the development of our vast
estate and the accumulation of our
riches have for the while DETECTED us
from our major quest. We have grown
opulent and arrogant and our zeal for
materials possessions has rendered us
unresponsive to the high claims of char
acter.
1t is not a faulty diagnosis of the
causes of the long-continued depression
to say that at its source and center is
the lowered moral standards of our
people as a whole. We have set an
example to the youth of the Nation that
threatens the stability of its character
and renders it impotent to maintain
the traditions of the Republic itself A
type of patriotism that is selfish and
insular. that puts gain and acquisition
above loyalty to fundamental American
ideals and the widest good of all our
people, is reprehensible and inimical to
the largest interests of the Nation. We
shall hardly set forward our truest and
best and attain that for which this Ma
ton was brought into being, until we
heed again the mighty words of Wash
ington as they concern the great pillars
of human happiness"
