Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS

oy ldORNION w. BURGESS,
Do you know what it means to
brood2 1t means to keep thinking
and thinking and thinking about
something that it were better not
to think about. Now Peter Rabbit
is such happy-go-lucky small per-
son that he is the very last one in
all the Great World you would ex-
pect to brood over anything. But
you know how often in this life it is
the unexpected that happens. 1t was
30 IN the case of Peter Rabbit. Peter
had taken to brooding, and because
OF 1t he was unhappy himself, and
he was making little Mrs. Peter un-
happy.
Can you guess what it was all
about9 I'll tell you. 1t was about
his coat. Yes, sir, it was about his
coat. And 1t was all because of
that little test you know about when
Peter and Jumper the Hare were
surprised by Reddy Fox, and Red
dy quite overlooked Jumper because
the latter's coat so nearly matched
his surroundings. Reddy had had
no trouble IN seeing Peter because
Peters brown coat showed strongly
against the white of the snow-cov-
cred ground. Peter had had no diff
Guilty IN getting away from Reddy.
He had simply crept into the heart
OF a bramble-tangle where Reddy
could not follow, and there he had
renamed until he was sure that
the way to the dear Old Briar Patch
was clear and safe.
Once back in the dear Old Briar
Patch with nothing in particular to
90. Peter began to think about the
splendid coat of his big cousin,
Jumper the Hare, and how it
changed from brown in summer to
pure white in winter when most of
the time the ground is covered with
snow. With his own eyes he had
seen now Jumper had only to sit
perfectly still in order to be over
looked, even by such a sharp-eyed
fellow as Reddy Fox. Even before
then Peter had been little, Just a
wee bit, envious. Now as he thought
the matter over his envy grew and
grew and grew.
He couldn't put the matter out of
his mind at all. He was cross to
Mrs. Peter. He had no appetite. ALI
ne did was to sit and brood and
brood.
For goodness sake, Peter Rab-
bit, whatever is the matter with
you?" demanded little Mrs. Peter,
when she could stand it no longer.
Nothing" mumbled Peter.
Don't tell that to mel" snapped
little Mrs. Peter. Something is the
matter. Have you got a stomach
ache?" You see Peters troubles usu-
ally are in his stomach.
Peter shook his head. "It's moth
ing the matter with my feelings" !"
said he. 'It's my coat"
"Your coat!" exclaimed little Mrs,
Peter, looking at Peter as if she
thought him crazy. For the love of
little bunnies, what's the matter
with your coat? 1t looks all right
to me-" She inspected Peter care
fully.
Peter shifted his position uncom-
fortably. ut isn't just my coat ex-
actly." he explained. "It's the un-
fairness Of Old Mother Nature. Why
should she give my cousin, Jumper
the Hare, white coat in winter to
make it easy for him to remain
unseen by his enemies and give poor
little me brown coat so that
can't help being seen? I tell you its
unfair. It's dreadfully unfair"

Traffic Education
As sPedesirian-Cont
Substitute Urged
Fort Davis Citizens
Association Also Calls
For New School

An intensive traffic education cam
paign, as a substitute for pedestrian
control, was proposed by the Fort
Davis Citizens Association, meeting
last night In the, Southeastern
Branch OF the Public Library.
The motion of James r. Baxter,
president. to favor control touched
OF a sharp debate. John Hartnett,
opposing pedestrian control on the
grounds that increased taxes would
be required for its support, then Of
fered the traffic education plan
which he felt would be more effec-
tive and would save pedestrians the
embarrassment and Inconvenience
through enforcement OF the pro-
posed regulations.
Voices Objectionable Points.
perhaps pedestrian control in GER
tain downtown areas of congestion
would be satisfactory, but applied
to the less heavily trafhcked points
the plan seems ridiculous" Mr..
Hartnett declared. ut is not in the
downtown districts that most of the
serious accidents occur, but in the
outlying sections where traffic is
speeded up," he added.
Aside from that" Mr.. Hartnett
continued, children comprise the
heaviest injury toll and it is through
educational methods that this factor
will most likely be eliminated"
The action followed q report by
7. J. Lynch who attended the spe-
cial Traffic Committee meeting of
the Southeast Council Tuesday.
Call for New School.
Demands for q new high school
and enlargement OF the Stanton
Elementary School were voted after
Fred Forester, chairman of the
Education Committee, stressed the
need for the additions in his report.
The association cited the over
crowded conditions of Eastern and
Anacostia High Schools in pressing
Tor new structure to be located
near the intersection of Alabama
and Pennsylvania avenue Sc. 1t
was pointed out that the capacity
OF the Stanton School Is now ex-
ceeded by more than 100. Six addi-
uonal rooms are desired for this
building.
Mr. Forester announced that a
special meeting, which Education
Committee members from Southeast
citizens groups would attend, will be
held early next month to determine
concerted action through the South
east Council.
Sentiment for a real estate tax
ceiling OF $1.75 per 500 valuation
was expressed by the organization.
although official action on the mat
tar was withheld until a full report
Is presented at future meeting.
Mrs. Dorothy Nelson was admitted
AG q new association member.
