Bedtime Stories
By THORNTON w. BURGESS.

Having been reminded of Dotty
the Tree Sparrow, Peter Rabbit was
eager to find him and learn from
him how he had Jared through the
summer. He was at loss just where
to look for Dotty until he remem-
bered a certain weedy field, along
one edge of which the bushes had
been left growing.
So Peter hurried over to the
weedy field and there, sure enough,
he found Dotty and a lot of his
friends. They were very busy get
ting their breakfast. Some were
clinging to the weed stalks picking
the seeds out of the tops, while
others were picking up seeds from
the ground. 1t was cold. Rough
Brother North Wind was doing his
best to blow up a snoWstorm. 1t
wasn't at all the kind of a day when
anybody would expect to find any
one in high spirits, but Dotty was.
He was even singing as Peter came
up, and all about DottyS friends and
relatives were twittering as merrily
as if 1t were the beginning of spring
instead of winter.
Dotty was very nearly the size
Of Little Friend the Song Sparrow,
and looked somewhat like him save
that his breast was clear ashy-gray,
all but little dark spot in the mid
die, the little dot from which he
has been named. He wore a chest
nut cap, almost exactly like that of
Chippy the Chipping Sparrow. 1t
reminded Peter that Dotty is often
called the Winter Chippy.
Welcome back" cried Peter. ut
does my heart good to see you'll"
Thank you, Peter" twittered
Dotty happily. I'm way, it is good
10 be back. Certainly it is good to
know that an old friend is glad to
see me-
Well, 1t is good" declared Peter
very emphatically. "At best there
are few enough folks about in win
ter, and I don't know of any one
I enjoy having for a neighbor more
than I do you"
Thank you again" cried Dotty,
"and please let me return the COM
pliment. 1 like cold weather. I like
winter when there isn't too much
ice and stormy weather. I always
feel good when it is cold. That is
one reason I go north to nest"
Speaking of nests, do you build
in tree?' inquired Peter.
Usually on or near the ground
replied Dotty. Really am a ground
bird, although 1 am called a tree
sparrow. Most of us sparrows spend
our time on or near the ground"
II know replied Peter. I'm very
fond of the Sparrow family. I just
love your cousin Chippy. I wish he
would stay all winter"
Dotty laughed a tinkling little
laugh, good to hear. Cousin Chippy
would starve to DEATH" he declared
He eats worms and bugs and has
to go where he can get them. I eat
seeds and can get plenty here. SC

age of men here and the high

The police department which is
headed by Chief Ivan Elwood,

Mayor Albury, however, en-
phasized that the efficiency Of the
department has not yet been I'M
paired To offset the loss of his
two officers, the mayor has added
a second motorcycle and greatly
increased the armament of the
department.
With the help Of his ranking
officers he has rejuvenated his

dered them to standby in case of

toned at the base operating here.

NEW YORK. Dec. sl.-The

Red Army reporting the cap
ture Of the two important Cri-
mean cities SAID that Russian
forces were running rough-shod
over rereatlng Germans who
were Keeling in panic.
A Moscow radio pointed out
eoincidentally that exactly one
year ago today Hitler had prom
ised his people that "194l viii

est victory in our history
In contrast TO this promise, the
broadcast listed the status quo
on the Russian front It. said
that the Nazis had been driven
100 miles from Moscow on the
central front SEs4
The Hazi army was now SO
miles from its deepest penetra-
ton on Leningrad. And in the
Crimean battle they were now

Red Army of Crimea IS consid
cred one of the most sensational
feats Of the war.
