DANNY SHAKES MORE THAN
EVER
Danny meadow mouse was
trapped. He was trapped, but
cot caught, which sounds ruther
mixed and Isn’t at all. You see he
was trapped because Billy Mink was
waiting for him Just outside the
only doorway to that hollow log
In which he was hiding. But he
wasn't caught, because that door
way was too mnall for Billy Mink
“You’ll Have to Come Out Some
Time and I’m Going to Stay Right
Here and Walt for You,’’ Do

to get through and Billy couldn’t
reach him despite all his efforts.
‘•you’ll hnve to come out pome
time and I’m going to stay right
here and wait for you." declared
Billy Mink. "You may Just ns well
come out now us to keep me wait
ing, because you are going to be
caught anyway and I am going to
catch you."
Danny didn't say a word. He held
his tongue, which was the wisest
thing he could do. It usually Is wise
to hold one’s tongue. But I sus
pect that It was fear more than
wisdom which caused Danny to hold
his tongue. You see, poor Danny
was shnklng all over with fear. He
knew that for the time being he
was safe, but he also felt sure

Mint if Killy Mink kept tils word
and watched Just outside that door
way he would either starve to death
Inside that hollow log or furnish
Billy Mink s good meal.
Danny couldn't decide which end
would he the worst and the more
he thought It over the more he shiv
ered and shook. Hither end was
dreadful. The fact Is Danny
Meadow Mouse was so badly fright
ened that he wasn’t using his usu
ally lively wits at all. It never once
entered his head that If Billy Mink
waited long enough for him to
starve, Billy would himself he like
ly to starve, and that Is something
Billy would be the very last person
In the Great World to do. Billy Is
altogether too active to he patient.
But Danny was too frightened to
think of this and so he crouched
shivering and shaking, as miserable
a little Meadow Mouse as ever
lived. "I ought to have remembered
Billy Mink's wonderful nose and
that If he once found my trail
he would follow me straight here.”
thought Danny. "I ought to have
waded in the water after crossing
the Laughing Brook, and so broken
my trail. I ought to have found
a hiding place with more than one
entrance. I ought—hut what's the
use of thinking the things I ought
to have done and didn’t do? There
isn’t any. I horn lan f nnv at all.”
That was quite true. When It la
too late there seldom la any uae In
thinking of what should or should
not have been done. Hut because
there seemed to him nothing else
to think about, Danny Meadow
Mouse continued to think about his
mistakes and to shake with fear.
And outside Hilly Mink grinned and
licked hi* lips and tried to think
of some way to make Danny
Meadow Mouse come out 'of that
hollow log.

THKltK are so many culinary op

after day In numberless homes,
making gravies, mixing pastry for
pies, cheese sticks and tarts, nil at
different times, when one process
would make all three.
One of the daily tasks In most
homes of the dinner hour Is the
making of gravies. The French
word roux covers the base or thick
ening of gravies. There Is white
roux and brown which Is simply

For the white roux melt one half
cup of shortening In a heavy frying
pan, add three-fourths of a cup of
flour and cook slowly, stirring con
stantly until it Is thoroughly blend
ed ami well cooked. Remove from
Hie tire and store in a cool place
until ueeded. For thickening soups,
white sauce, creamed chicken or
vegetables, use one to two table
spoons of (he roux to each cup of
liquid, according to the thickness
desired.
To make brown roux, use the
same proportions of fat and flour,
but stir and cook until thick, smooth
and brown, using care not to scorch.

LOVE’S LAMPS
By ANNE CAMPBELL
MY LOVE that burned with Just
a single flame,
A chaste white taper lit for you
alone,
In twenty years has spread itself
to claim
A dozen conflagrations for Its
own.
It warms Itself upon our children’s
lips,
And sends up signal fires our
friends may see.
They come to us with glowing fin
ger-tips.
Warmed ’neath the roof that
shelters you and me.
Sometimes I think of those dear
selfish days
When you were all my world, my
own blue sky;
But now our children bless me with
your gaze;
A dozen lovely lamps are flaring
high.
But like the constant star above the
hill,
My love for you Is burning bright
ly still.

President Roosevelt, congratulat

steadfast Influence which your maj

century." That was about all that
the President, with the best of In

ruler’s popularity is based on stick
ing to his Job, which is, letting his
people alone, while they attend to
their business in their own way.
The king seems to think that
those who have built the greatness
of the British empire to Its present
height may be trusted to continue
building it.

King Solomon never solved any
such problem as this: A New York
manufacturer wished to advertise
“invisible panties," in usual words—
small trousers worn by modern
women. NRA rules say that if the
article advertised Is not invisible,
the advertising is “false and mis
leading and violates the code.” If
those panties are invisible, NRA
cannot pass on them, and their
manufacturer must not attempt to
display them on models, for evident
reasons dealing with morality.
