Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.

A flock of modestly dressed yet
rather distinguished looking feath-
cred folks alighted in a cherry tree
and began helping themselves to
Farmer Browns cherries. They were
about the size of Winsome Blue
bird, but did not look in the least
like him, for they were dressed al
most wholly in beautiful rich. soft.
grayish- brown. Across the end of
each tail was a bright yellow band.
On each, the forehead, chin, and,
a line through each eye was vel
vety black. Each wore very stylish
pointed cap. and on the wings of
most of them were little spots Of
red which looked like sealing wax.
From this they got the name of Wax
wings. They were slimmed and trim
and quite dandifled, and in quiet
way were really beautiful.
IF they stay long, Farmer Brown
won't have any cherries left" re-
marked Peter.
Don't worry" replied Jenny
Wren. II don't know anybody equal
to them for roaming about. Here
are most of us with families, while
those gadabouts haven't even begun
thinking about housekeeping yet.
They certainly do like those cherries,
but guess Farmer Brown can stand
the loss of what they eat. He may
have fewer cherries, but he'll have
more apples because of them
"How's that?" demanded Peter.
oh replied Jenny, they were
over here awhile ago when those
little green canker worms threatened
to eat up the whole orchard, and
they stuffed themselves on those
worms just the same as they are
stuffing themselves on cherries now
They are very fond of small fruits,
but most of those they eat are the
wild kind which are of no use to
Farmer Brown or to anybody else
They eat so many cedar berries that
some folks call them Cedar Birds
Others call them Cherry Birds. Now
just look at that performance, will
you"
There were five of the Waxwings,
and they were now seated side by
side on a branch of the cherry tree.
One of them had a plump cherry
which he passed to the next one.
This one passed it on to the next,
and SO it went to the end of the
row and half way back before it was
finally eaten. Peter laughed right
out. Never in my life have I seen
such politeness," said he.
"Huh!" exclaimed Jenny Wren.
"I don't believe it was politeness at
ALL I guess if you got at the truth
Of the matter you would find each
one was stuffed SO full that he
thought he didn't have room for
that cherry, and so passed it along"
We'll, I think that was politeness
Just the same" retorted Peter THE
first one might have dropped the
cherry instead Of passing it along"
just then the Waxwings few
away.

The federal hurricane warning
system ordered northeast storm
warnings hoisted at GAS q. m.
from Csrrabelle. Fla. to Grand

to exercise caution.
Absence OF casualties was at
tributed to the fact that hurricane
winds were concentrated in a very
small center which followed a mar
row path across Florida. through
thinly populated sections on each
coast-but just missing Miami
and across the virtually uninhsb-
tied Florida everglades.
