Next Sunday ii ) f ip huxTa very first bi tlitlay and 1 am mrc rvrrv
rii of you will want to hi lj make ita wonderful birthday that we will
always remember. You have learned lo love Happy land and to watch
f orotic message it bring to you, nut only frciin your Hippy, but Peter
nil Polly and Jiilly Squirrel ami little J c U in his I airy etrctto in the
Happy Forest. Those of you who love birds arc anxious to read each
week what I'nrle John has to say, because you know in lii little home
close by the big wood he hai plenty of time to make friend with the
little erratum o( the field and forest. Since they all have become your
friend you are anxious for other alio to learn to know and love them.
How would each one o( you like to give a new friend to Happy land
for a birthday Rift?, Choose the very nicest friend you have who it not
already a Go-Hawk. Till him or her all about the Happy Tribe and the
thingi for which we stand. Then aak him if he would not like to become
a Co-Hawk on Happtand's first birthday.
After you have read your Happy land today take it to your friend to
read and give him a chance to be a Go-Hawk. If everyone of you will do
thin, then what will happen? The chance are that we will jump right
over the 100,000 mark in membership, and what a wonderful thing that
will be I
Imagine 100,000 1ig and little boy and girl all over the world
working quietly, faithfully, each in hn own home town to keep our
motto and pledge. Whenever there cornea good work to be done, think
what it will mean to have 100,0110 boy and girl ready to help. Each one
of you who secures one new member in honor of Happyland't first
birthday will be doing a fine piece of work, for-it. mean someone clue
become interfiled bccauie of you. '
It doe Kern that the Go-Hawk are always ready to (to with all
their heart whatever i asked ot them. So J know each one of you will
.do his best to find one new friend at least to enroll a a member. Most
likely, poor Uncle Sam will sigh because his Mail Touch will be no heavy
and then he will laugh, as he has so often in the past, and say. "You just

NOW OO ON WITH THE STOny.
, (Cootinaed Froat Laat Buodar.)
At soon at the chief took hit
departure and before the young
couple had time to recover from
their astonishment, forth crawled
Donald from under the tofa. "I'm
"all stiff from sittin' under that sofa,
to I guess I'll sit the rest of the
evenin' on the couch with you an'
walk home with you," he began in
t his sweetest tones.
"I guess not," replied the beau,
putting his hand in his pocket. "It
is surely a good thing I was
warned. Here are some pennies
for you. Take them and go and if
there are any more of you Indians
hiding around here I'd rather you'd
all come -out at once, for it is get
ting late," urged the persecuted
one with a reassuring smile at his
wrathful sweetheart.
"I guess there's only me left,"
said a small voice, and from behind
the leather chair swaggered Na
poleon. "Your money or your life
or me icr an in cvcnin . laKe
your choice, Mr. Beau, and be
quick about it," he muttered, trem
bling meanwhile as he heard Jack
and Donald departing, realizing
that he was the last of the Go
Hawks to do the "bloody night's
work."
"Oh, if it is a choice for my
life, money or you, I prefer my life,
so here is some money, andnow
clear out and I will settle "with
you kids another time."
Napoleon was not slow to follow
directions and immediately joined
hit companions, who had waited
for him at the corner.
"My eyes! But they were
frightened," said Donald. "I'm kind
a-glad we didn't have t' hurt any
body." "So'nt I," responded Jack, "hut it
was a great night's work. I say,
I b'lieve there can be good buinrss
done a-helpin' beaux along, (loin'
errands for them and then leavin'
them 'lone 'tad of staying with
them."
"How'd we get all the beaux?"
aked Wonald.
"Oh, we'd have to hunt 'em up,
same a any other buoineti," au
twered Jack.
' I'm afraid all the Co Havski'd
nuke too many to do it," .said
I'tinaKI,
"Thru we hiiiiht have Jut n
three, I'at. I'rue and I'iggy, Vauie
he gne n the idea and we'll c!l
tirelvf "I'.cau KuiiIcm.' 'Kuuler'
a in Inner (f V$gy, We'll h
an office in our barn an' I think
we can get a lot of bus'ness."
"We might tflink it all over to
night and in the mornin' we'll get
the tquaws an' plan it all out," sug
gested Donald.
The other two assented and the
three senior members of the newly
organized "Dean Hunters" separ
ated at the corner, each youngs
ter holding fast to his money and
congratulating himself on the eve
ning t work. .
CHAPTER XIV.
The Beau Runter Agency.
At an early hour the following
morning the six "Beau Runters"
met to discuss their campaign.
Jack, with characteristic energy,
Jiad t.ept a corner of the barn
loft and there established the of
fice of the new agency which was
desined to create such a ripple of
fun the coming fortnight in the
town, and ever after to occupy a
unique place in its history.
In imagination each boy had
spent many times the money he
had earned the night before. In
truth, Napoleon had assisted in
purchasing the supplies which had
furnished a breakfast for his mam
my and her flock of packaninnics.
"It must've felt grand to sit in
the library an' wait for the beau
and his girl to come," wistfully
remarked Patience.

POLLVS
BOOK,
Yesterday a crowd of us went
out in the woods, and while we
took a picnic tupper along with us
we decided to roast some corn, for
it always tastes so good when you
cat it out of doors. This is the way
wc prepared it, and you may like
to try it.
ROAST CORN.
Allow two or three ears for each
person. .Remove the outer layer of
husks, turn back the remainder and
remove the silk. Replace the husks
and tic together with the silk at the
end of each car. Place on bed of
hot coals and let cook for about
40 minutes. Don't forget to take
plenty of butter and salt along with
you for the corn. POLLY.

and conceals himself as the
Drowsy Fairies nod their way past
him and disappear in the direction
taken by John. Jelf raises his lit
tle bugle and blows seven blasts as
before. Swift appears brea'h
lessly.) In Field and Forest
Last Sunday you learned about
Mr. Goldfinch and his two suits
of clothes each year. Like him,
here iire some other birds who
have two different suits of clothes
for every year. However, they do
not change them in the same way
as the gold finch.
For instance, some of our bird
friends have feathers of black, with
Mi ay on the outside edges. During
the winter they seem to be wear
ing gray coats. Then when spring
conns the gray edge falls off and
the black shows. This makes them
look as though they had put on a
new black suit.
Whenever father and mother
birds do dress alike you nearly al
ways find that their clothes arc
quiet "ones. It really docs seem
best, too, that the mothc birds
should wear soft dulk colors, be
cause they are not so easily seen
when on the nest, and so they are
safer. The dear little baby birds
do need their mothers,
I have found that the wrens,
sparrows and other birds who live
elo-e to the ground also wear el it 11
colors for ihr same reaon that
thry may not be seen.
Among ths birds who make
their nests underground or in holt s,
the little molbi-e wear gay colors
as well a the father. In cli
niyatu where there is much wet
weather the colors are always
darker, When one lives, as 1 tlo,
