Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGES

From somewhere In the Old
orchard sounded a clear "kow-kow-
Observation-Disclosures" 1t was quite
unlike any verse Peter had heard
that spring and he had exclaimed
who's that"
That's Cuckoo" said Kitty the
Catbird. do you mean to say you
don't know Cuckoo?"
"Of course, I know him" retorted
Peter. Il had forgotten the sound
Of his voice, that's all. Tell me, is
it true that Mrs. Cuckoo is no better
than Sally Sly the Cowbird. and lays
her eggs in the nests of other birds.
I've heard that said of her.
There isn't a word of truth in it,
declared Kitty emphatically. "She
builds her nest, such as 1t is, and
she looks after her own children.
The Cuckoos have been given a bad
name because Of some good-for-
nothing cousins of theirs who live
across the ocean where Bully the
English Sparrow belongs, and who,
if all reports are true, really are no
better than Sally Sly. It's funny
how a bad name sticks. The Cuckoos
have been accused of stealing the
eggs of other birds. but I've never
known them to do it and I've lived
a neighbor to them for long time.
AS matter of fact, they are mighty
useful birds Farmer Brown ought
to be tickled to death that Mr.. and
Mrs. Cuckoo have come back to the
Old Orchard this year. Do you see
that cobwebby nest with all those
hairy caterpillars on it and around
1t up in that tree?
Peter replied that he did and that
he had seen a great many nests just
like it and had noticed how the
caterpillars ate all the leaves near
them.
I'll venture to say that you won't
see many leaves eaten around that
nest" replied Kitty. Those are
called tent caterpillars and they do
an awful lot of damage. I can't bear
them myself because they are so
hairy. Very few birds will touch
them. But Cuckoo likes them.
There he comes now; just watch
him"
A long. slim, dovelike appearing
bird alighted close to the cater
pillars nest. Above he was brownish
gray with just little greenish tinge.
Beneath he was white. His wings
were reddish brown His tail was
little longer than that of Mourner
the Dove. The outer feathers were
black, tipped with white, while the
middle feathers were the color of
his back. The upper half of his bill
was black, but the under half was
yellow, and from this. he was called
the Yellow-billed Cuckoo. He has
a cousin with an all-black bill who
is called the Black-billed Cuckoo"
Cuckoo made no sound but be-
gan to pick off the hairy caterpillars
and swallow them. When he had
eaten all those outside he tore open
the nest and picked out those in
side, then he flew off as silently as
he had come

President Roosevelt has at

to proceed with creation of new

government the upper hand in
indutrial strikes affecting pre-

Winter has set in all over
Europe. Warfare no matter how
modern or primitive now enters
a phase of slowing down and
consolidation of gains and the
STRENGTHENING of defenses.
In the north, the Germans
are making every effort possible
to enter Moscow but they realize
now that Stains men have
accomplished the actual defeat
of Hitler's wild dreams of con-
quest. Most of the German army
is tied up in Russia for the dura
ton of cold weather = many
dreary intensely cod months in
which men go insane from sheer
lonliness. Russia in winter is a
scene of the vast lonliness
silence and awful cold.
In the South England has
begun finally to fight. Almost
100 per cent American-armed,
English colonials have attacked
and routed the small garrisons
of Axis troops in Africa and are
fathering force for a drive on
Hitler from that direction.

Washington. - General read
ers are fully advised of the con-
tentious situation existing in
our country at this time. Parti-
cu.arly are they advised of the
frightfully serious threats to
the weTrbeing of the country
occasioned by the hundreds of
strikes which are delaying pro-
gress in arming the nation for
the war which, while undeclar-
ed, is just as real as though
Congress had declared it.
The major conflict. most por-
tentious of all, is a struggle be-
tween the United Mine Workers
Union and the Big Three, Mine
Owners, organizations.
The us Congress the nations
press and our citizens generally
recognize the fact that a. titanic
domestic war is on, and that dis
unity at home is being.promotsd,
by controversial factors of huge
Importance and significance.
In the midst of this confu-
sion and belligerence, the Negro
element remains loyal and pat
riotic, eager and willing to do
its part in upholding the demo
CRITIC institutions and ideals of
the world.
The Victim of Unfair Practices
....IrOnically while declaring its
patriotism and Willingness to
defend the institutions of A.
merica the Negro group is still
the victim of the grrossest, the
most unfair, and the most bar
barOus treatment at the hands
of those, who, most Loudly have
been crying for war and prOmOt-
ing the war hysteria which now
envelopes us.
Liberal journals of public
opinion are calling attention to
the fact that the Labor and
Agriculture groups which furnish
basic support for Mr.. Roosevelt's
New Deal policies are now luke
warm and antagonistic.
Despite the generous favors
they have received during the
past nine years at the hands of
Mr.. Roosevelt's administration,
represented by every species of
favoritism they are cool and in
different. They are not whole
heartedly supporting the Presi-
dent in his foreign po'icies ex-
cept when they are abe to ex-
tort comparably larger favors in
their own behalf.
Take labor for instance. Work

number of man-days lost has
