Stories
By THORNTON W. BIRGE8S.
Drummer Is Killed Willi Pride and
Joy.
A secret's safe only with those
Whose feelings no one ever knows.
—Old Mother Nature.
When Drummer the Woodpecker
peeped in at the doorway of that new
home in the maple iree in Farmer
Brown's dooryard and saw for the
first time tlie white egg which it
contained his Joy and pride knew
no bounds. There wasn't n prouder
bird in all the Great World unless
They began to congratulate hint, poor
Drummer.
it was* Mrs. Drummer, lie wanted
to fly right away to the Old Orchard
and tPil all his friends about it. Yes.
sir, that is just what ho wanted to
do. He was so proud that he just
couldn't keep It to himself.
But Mrs. Drummer understood just
exactly how Drummer felt and what
was in his mind. As he made ready
to fly over to the Old Orchard she
stopped him. “One minute, my dear."
said she. “You know you are not to
tell a single soul about this egg or
about this nest."
"But—but I want to tell. I am so
happy I just rr.ust tell. Why shouldn't
I tell now that the home is finished?"
retorted Drummer.
“Are you quite crazy?” demanded
Mrs. Drummer. “The longer we can
keep this home a secret the better.
What people don't know won't hurt
them. As for telling any one about
that egg. don't you dare think of
such a tiling! News like that travels.
Sooner or later some one with a fond
ness for eggs "would he sure to*hear
it. Now promise me. Drummer, that
you won't say a word."
Drummer promised. There was
nothing else for him to do. Then he
flew over to the Old Orchard. But
he didn't stay long. Me just couldn’t
keep away from that maple tree. Me
had to lie where he could peep In
as often as he pleased to see that
wonderful egg. The next morning
when he looked in there were twa
eggs. Drummer tried to think that
he was twice as happy, but as he had
been just about as happy as he could
be over the first egg there, he couldn't
be twice as happy. On the third
morning there were three eggs, and
the next morning there was a fourth.
Perhaps you ran guess how Drummer
hurried over there on the fifth morn
ing.
Bui this lime there wasn't another
egg there. Drummer was disappoint
ed. He said so. Mrs. Drummer
chuckled. "You may he disappointed i
now.” said she, "but when you have
four hungry mouths to keep supplied
with food you will be very thankful
that there isn't a fifth. Four will
make Just a good sized family. Now
l have got to sit on those eggs. T
do hope, my dear, that you will have
sense enough to keep our secret.
When the babies hatch out we witl
not be aide to keep the secret very
long, hut until then there is no rea
son why tho secret should not tic
kept. Whenever you come ovpr here
he quite si/re that no one is watching
you.”
Drummer promised that lie would
be very, very careful. He promised
that he would keep that secret, and
he really meant to, But joy and
pride are hard things to keep from
showing. Drummer was so proud and
so happy that he was fairly puffed
up with joy and pride. It wasn't long
before it was known all through the
Old Orchard that Drummer the Wood
pecker had a nest and eggs. He
hadn't said a word about them, not
a word. It hadn't been necessary.
His friends and neighbors had known
just from his appearance. They be
gan to congratulate him. Poor Drum
mer! He didn't know what to say.

‘Somebody has on new clothes III*
“Nope - just the old ones
washed ”
HE had on a Kaynee, and mothers who have bought Kaynees
know that they come from the wash as bright and fresh
as new. Their lasting style and quality is Kaynee's uniqueness.
Any discerning mother can tell the exclusive designing and
careful tailoring of Kaynees. Collars and neck-bands fit well
and are comfortable; yokes conform naturally to the shoulders;
the sleeves are the right length; they blouse neatly.
The patterns, too, are boyish and exclusive—stylish stripes,
isolid colors and the latest checks.
And there is economy in the sturdy materials, lock-stitched
Seams and tightly sewed buttons. Experience shows that the
colors are fast seN—they will not fade.
Leading stores everywhere sell Kaynee blouses and shirts for
boys and wash suits for the smaller fellows.
