BEDTIME STORY

LIGHTFOOT VISITS
PADDY THE BEAVER
DEEP In the Green Forest Is the
pond where lives Paddy the
Beaver. It Is Paddy’s own pond,
for he made It himself. He made
It by building a dam across the
Laughing Brook.
When Llghtfoot the Deer bound
ed away through the Green Forest
after watching the hunter pnss
through the hollow below him. he
remembered Paddy’s pond. "That’s
where I'll go.” thought Llghtfoot.
"It Is sucn a lonesome part of the
Green Forest that I do not believe
that hunter will come there I’ll run
It Was Paddy tha Beaver Taking
tha Branch to His Woodpils.
over and make Paddy a friendly
call."
So Llghtfoot bounded along deep
er and deeper Into the Green For
est. Presently through the trees he
caught the gleam of water. It was
Paddy's pond. Llghtfoot approached
It cautiously, lie felt sure he was
rid of the hunter who had followed
him so far that morning, but ho
knew that there might be other
hunters In the Green Forest He
knew that he couldn’t afford to be
careless for even one little minute.
Llghtfoot had lived long enough to
know that most of the sad things
and dreadful things that happen In
the Green Forest and on the Green
Meadows are due to carelessness.
No one who Is hunted, be he big
or little, can afford ever to be care
less.
Now Llghtfoot had know of hunt
ers hiding near water, hoping to
shoot him when he came to drink.
That always seemed to Llghtfoot a
dreadful thing, an unfair thing.
But hunters had done It before and
they might do It aguln. So Llght
foot was careful to upproach
Paddy's pond up wind. That Is, he
approached the side of the pond
from which the Merry Little
Breezes were blowing towards him.
and all the time he kept Ills nose
working. He knew that If any hunt

tie hnd a.most reached the edge
of Paddy’s pond when from the
farther shore there came a sudden
crash. It startled Llghtfoot ter
ribly for Just an Instunt. Then he
guessed what It meant. That crash
was the falling of a tree. There
had been no sound of axes, so he
knew It could not have been
chopped down by men. It must be
that Paddy the Benver had cut It,
and If Paddy was working by dny
light >t was certain thnt no one had
been around that pond for a long
time.
So Llghtfoot hurried forward
eagerly, but still cautiously When
be reached the hank he looked
across towards where the sound of
that falling tree hnd come from. A
branch of a tree was moving along

“THINK NOT OF THE
PROFIT”
A MODERN educator urges the
youth of the land to turn their
harks on the objective of accumu
lating wealth, to make their goal
the enrichment of life. In these
times he says, those deciding upon
their path In the world should ask
of any enterprise not “Will It yield
profit and wealth?” but “Does It
in every particular enrich life?"
Boiled down, that means select
work that you will do for the love
of It rather than with the object
of accumulating wealth through It.
And It seems to me that advice
holds good for all times.
And the best reason for It Is not
an Idealistic one or a spiritual one.

tical one.

with It have very rarely been those
who started out with the Idea of
becoming successful to attain
wealth. The Idea of "fame and
fortune” may to a certain ertent
have a relationship In the dreams
of the ambitious. But wanting fame
and fortune never brought them
any closer than the moon.
It Is the people who had some
thing they wanted to do—an Idea
they wmnted to bring to life—work
which meant something to them,
who have "made good" with all that
that Implies. And the probability
Is that where wealth was a part
of the rewards It played no great
part In their own satisfaction. It
was not what they were after;
that Is why they got It—In addi

No, "think not of the profit, bnt

the most practical of reasons. That
Is that preoccupation with the prof
it of a venture In work Is the sur

THE DAY OF LEFTOVERS
IN EVERY well-regulated home
there will be nice food which
should not be slighted because it is
left over. One housekeeper clev
erly gets everything eaten by serv
ing a tray with small dishes, nicely
warmed and seasoned and each
member of the family may have a
choice. The food never goes beg
ging.
In these days of vegetable plates
one may have a hot vegetable plate
with a few spoons of peas, beans,
tomatoes, cabbage or onions. Such
a meal Is often preferred by those
who realize that they eat too much
meat
Leftover baked potatoes make
most delicious creamed potatoes,
having quite.a different flavor from
the freshly cooked or boiled ones.
One large grapefruit when care
fully peeled and the sections
(minus their covering) placed on
tender lettuce with a sprinkling of
shredded almonds and a good dress
ing, make the best of salad.
By the way, our beauty dietitians
tell us that a dozen almonds a day
with an apple, banana or a glass
of fruit juice Is one of the best
luncheons for beautifying the com
plexion. The almonds must be
carefully masticated.
Rice and Meat Mold.
Mix two cups of boiled rice with
one-half teaspoon of salt and line
a buttered mold with two-thirds of
the mixture. Mix two tcups of
chopped cooked meat with one
cup of soft bread crumbs, salt, pa
prika, two tablespoons each of
chopped onions, celery and pars
ley; add two beaten eggs, one
half cup of milk and pour Into the
mold. Cover with the remaining
rice. Over the top place a thick
waxed paper. Set Into hot water
and bake in a moderate oven 35
minutes. Serve with:
Tomato Sauce
Take two cups of tomatoes, two
slices of onion, two bay leaves, two
celery leaves, four whole cloves,
one teaspoon of salt, one-fourth
teaspoon of paprika, one-half tea
spoon of sugar and one cup of
water. Cook together slowly for
20 minutes. Strain and add to
three tablespoons of butter and
four of flour that have been well
blended. Cook until creamy.

No Core, No War
Sloan Sees Light
The Holy City Falls
G. B. Shaw Writes
A small boy, asked for the core of
his apple, said: "There ain’t going
to be no core.”
Laval, French premier, tired of
dangerous goings-on in the Mediter
ranean, important back-door of
France, announces bluntly: “There
ain't going to be no war,” request
ing England to remove her battle
ships from the Mediterranean.
The wise British have known all
along that there was to be no war,
but thought It well to Indulge In
virtuous demonstrations.
Britons rarely make diplomatic
mistakes; diplomats of other coun
tries are children to them, although
France is an exception to that rule.
Washington believes the war will
end In 00 days, and has probably
been told so by somebody In Europe.
Alfred P. Sloan, Jr., president of
General Motors, announces “all sig
nals set for Increased automobile
sales next year,” and no doubt
about It.
He approves an automobile show
In November, Instead of January,
as giving the people more time to
realize that the Important car Is the
winter car, when the automobile
"wears the rubbers" for the whole
family.
Capturing Aksum will Impress
.Ethiopians. The holy city, surren
dered by the Ethiopians without a
phot, contains the tombs of all
■Ethiopian rulers since the time of
|Sheba. The Coptic Christian bish
op of Aksum voluntarily gave the
keys of the city to the Italian Gen.
Emilio de Bono, at Aduwa. He ac
cepted the keys, proclaimed Italy’s
annexation of Aksum, sent a force
to surround the city and prevent
looting the monasteries and the an
cient cathedral of St. Mary Zion.
In that cathedral the original Ark
of the Covenant is believed to be
preserved. Ethiopian history re
lates that when Solomon sent the
son of his high priest, with other
sons of great dignitaries, to accom
pany Sheba’s son after his visit to
his father, the son of the high priest
took the original Ark of the Cove
nant with him, substituting an Imi
tation ark, much to the indignation
of Solomon and that high priest In
Justice to the high priest’s son, It
must be stated that an angel ap
peared and gave him instructions
about stealing the ark.
George Bernard Shaw discovers
that Ethiopia, so-called, Is an ag
gregation of tribes, one ruled fairly
well by Halle Selassie, who Is
called “Emperor,” the others doing
labout as they please.
In some of these tribes, what
pleases the natives would seem
strange to us. For Instance, among
the Danakils a lady will not marry
a gentleman until he proves that he
has killed at least four men. And
he must prove It by bringing back
the easily identified fragments of
four mutilated bodies. Married
life with such a lady should never
be dull.
Wars come, wars go, Standard
Oil goes on forever, working.
Walter Teagle, head of Standard
Oil of New Jersey, with oil wells

Teagle would let British Royal

Gold has been coming rapidly
