CHAPTER IV.
"The Giant's Castle.

rift of th Wishing; Row, and how ther

behind a ' screen 6f vines. Peggy
looked about fearfully" for the Giant's
castle.
"Where is it?"- she whispered to
Mr. Woodoecker.
'There at the'other side," he whis
pered back. : .
. - Fierce Giant '
Peggy saw a great, rough wooden
building, monstrous in size to her now
tiny eyes, but nothing like the giant
castles pictured in her story books. It
must be a very fierce giant, indeed, to
live in such an ugly unkempt home.
Suddenly a message of alarm ran
among the birds.
"The Giant 1 He's coming!" they
whispered. Shivery thrills ran up and
down Peggy's back. She hoped the
airplane would fly fast if the Giant
came that way.
The door of the castle opened. Out
int the sunlight stepped the tallest,
fiercest looking being Peggy had ever
seen. To a midget only six inches high
which Peggy was now he looked
truly a terrifying monster. An un
kempt beard covered his entire face,
his cruel eyes flashing through. Tan
gled hair hung down from beneath an
Odd-shaped hat of skins. His clothes
hrl"f were oI(l anc ragged. Over one arm
JuIndee he will not!" declared was slun Frorn the other
Ifeggri indignant at the way the birds hung several wire cages. Peggy shud
dered, it would be an awful fate to
fall into the clutches of such a repul
sive creature. Poor, poor birds that
became caught in his snares!
The Giant of the Woods apparently
THE commotion was so greatthat
at first Peggy V could1 not make
out what it was all about. The birds
"were flying in a panic from the spot
whence the shrieks were coming. As
they scattered Peggy could see
handsome Oriole thrashing about
frantically in a bush. The bird
seemed held faif by something from
, which it was trying desperately to
free itself. '
"She's caught in a trap! She's
lost!" wailed the other birds, not
making a movement toward helping
the Unole. .
"My babies! What will become of
my. babies?" screamed the poor
Oriole.
"Why don't you set her loose?"
tried Peggy.
' "We can't," shrieked the bird
'The Giant of the Woods has got
her! He will lock her up and kill

were abandoning the Oriole to its
fate. She ran to the unfortunate bird
and began tugging at the knots that
Held it
i ine rnncess win save tier, save
her!" chanted the birds, their chorus
turning promptly from despair to re
joicing. '
Bat Peggy herself wasn't so con
naenr, naa sne oeen her usual size
she could have untied the cord easily.
But now she was as tiny as a doll and
the cord appeared to her as heavy as
a ship's cable. Peggy puzzled over
it a minute. Then she saw the sola
tion of the problem. The Oriole was
aught in a slip noose, which pulled
tighter with every movement of the
frantic bird, i By stopping the pull on
tne noose the cord could be loosened,
: . Desperate Struggle.
. Stop jerking," she ordered, and
the Qriole, after another desperate
struggle to free itself, quieted down.
Peggy then began working .on the
noose. She had Mr. Woodpecker
take hold of the cord on one side of
the. noose and Mr. Bluejay take hold
on the other side, and soon with their
help she worked the noose loose.
With a glad cry Mrs. Oriole leaped
high in the air and made straight for
her babies. The other birds sent up
a joyful chorus.
"Hail, Princess Peggy!" they sang.
"Our princess is more powerful than
the Giant of the Woods."
-"Oh, that was nothing just plain
common sense," answered Peggy
modestly.
"Nothing to you who are so power
ful and wise, but everything to us,"
rumbled Judge Owl. "You can rescue
our beloved one from, the Giant's dun
geons." .
"Will you, 0 Princess Peggy? Will
you?" besought all the birds.
Peggy's heart sank a bit. She was
really afraid of the Giant of the
Woods. She had no desire to en
counter him. But she remembered
that a princess must be brave in fac
ing danger for her subjects. She
must do her duty as Princess of Bird
land. . - ,,
"Where is the Giant's castle? she
asked, her voice trembling a bit'
- "We'll show you' Come," cried the
birds eagerly taking flight all except
Judge Owl, who had gone fast asleep.
Peggy, on her., airplane, easily kept
pace with the swiftest of the fliers.
After they had flown a mile or
more, they approached a clearing be
side a broad river. Here the birds,
giving caution signals, dropped down
among the trees, where they hid them-,
selves among branches, advancing"
covertly from tree to tree. Peggy felt
her courage oozing as bird after bird
fell back in evident fear of what was
ahead. At the edge of the clearing
they peeped out into the open from
was setting out to visit his traps.
Locking the door of his castle he
turned toward the forest. With a
thrill of alarm Peggy saw that he was
heading sttaight toward her. The
birds shrieked in terror and darted
away panic-stricken. Peggy grasped
the steering handles of the airplane
and shot up to the tops of the trees.
From below there came a frenzied
cry for help. Looking back,' Peggy
saw that i. came from Mr. Wodpeeker.
In his haste to get away he had blun
dered right into a snare and had been
caught fast.
"Princess! Princess!" he screcheed
in deadly fear. Peggy, trying to con
quer her own dread, turned back andJ
swooped down to rescue him.
She was too late. The Giant of the
Woods had also heard the Woodpeck
er's screams. He ran forward and
grasped the struggling bird. ;Peggy,
rushing to the rescue, had just time to
save herself by tilting the airplan ; up
ward as it threatened to smash into
the Giant. Even as it wasr the wing
of the machine gave the Giant a bang
in the ear and he let out a roar of
rage. Peggy shivtred with fear as
she looked down from the rapidly
climbing airplane and saw him danc
ing arounc below, one hand clutching
his battered ear and the other,
clenched irto a huge fist, waving
threateningly in her direction.

A tiny room of misty white,
Of dreams and Joy and gilden light,
Of youth's Illusions, glowing bold
With nothing more that Life can hold,
For Love itself with knowing hands
Has wrought Its dreams of magic strands.
A breath of pain and brooding gloom
And voices hushed this is the room
. Where, undefined, the hours are gray
And, ttneventfulf drag away. '
And, dim and silent, watchful Prayer ' ' (
Sits by and combs her streaming hair. '
A room of space, where overhead
The fronded lace of branches spread;
Where prickly vines and frosted sod
Carpet the living room of God.
Where mountains frown and breakers roll
And winds blow through to man's wild soul.
CHAPLAIN'S SCHOOL
SOON TO GRADUATE
ITS SECOND CLASS
Louisville, Ky., June L The only
school for chaplains ever maintained
by the United States army soon will
graduate its secotrl class at Camp
Zachary Taylor. There are 90 stu
dents in the class, which is made up
of ministers of many denominations,
.sortie of whort until recently served
as pastors of big city churches. - Some
of thet graduates already have been
commissioned as chaplains while oth
ers are ."approved candidates for
chaplain awaiting appointment." .
, No introduction on theolgical sub
jects is attempted at the school. The
"whole effort is -centered upon fitting
clergymen, fresh from civil life and
the problems of civil T life, into the
military scheme of things.
If Private Bill" Jones gets, what he
considers, a "raw deal" from his cap
tain, ten chances to one he will find
it convenient to talk the matter over
with hfs chaplain, for it is to the
chaplain the "buddy" goes in time of
trouble. When Bill Jones appears
with his tale of woe he must get a
sympathetic hearing, and theri if he
has been wrong al the time and his
injury is but fancied, the chaplain
must know enough of military law
and military regulations to tell him
definitely just how and why what was
done to Bill was the right thing.

There's a new fabric to welcome the
oncoming of summer days. This is
checked organdy, and no one can deny
that it is very attractive and embodies
a deal of summer atmosphere. One
has visions of vine-clad piazzas, pretty
country homes and lawns and summer
resorts whek they see the gay little
frocks which are fashioned of this
crispy, coo! material.
In one of our shops there is an en
semble of checked organdy dresses of
bewitching coquetry. One model
noted in tiny checks, formed of blue
lines on a white ground, has that de
murely, quaint, round neck which is
so charmingly youthful. This, as well
as the cuffs of the short kimono-cut
sleeves and the small patch pockets
on the skirt, are finished with wee
double ruffles of the self material and
white organdy. A long, narrow sash
of blue and gold changeable ribbon
adds an artistic touch. A noteworthy
feature of this frock is the wide hem,
which measures fully 25 inches in
depth.
' Many, Many Buttons.
Another pretty frock has threads of
red intermingled with lines of blue, so
that at first glance your eye is de
ceived into calling it Iavendar. It is
obvious that special care was given to
the construction, as well as the de
signing of this frock, for it possesses
so many exquisite details. The game
of "rich man, poor man, beggar, man"
might become quite a fascinating one
to whomsoever is fortunate enough to
own this dress, for it actually boasts
as many as 162 ball-shaped Irish
crochet buttons. The collar of this
dress is of white georgette embroider
ed in Shetland floss.
Flirty little sashes have a way of
fascinating you on some of these
frocks, while fresh white collars and
dainty vestees make you long to call
one your very own.
Checked organdy may be bought by
the yard in shades of pink, blue, laven'
dar, yellow and green. It is a yard in
width and sells for a dollar. It is very
lovely made up into collar and cuff
sets..
Ho hum! It's almost 10 o'clock
and I just awakened. Isn't that
awful? I know mother will for
give me because I came in so
late last eve. I went out to the
beach with Charles Hippie and
his sister. I had never met her
before. She really is quite fasci
nating and very stunning. I just
dote on the clever hat she wore
yesterady. It was gray Milan
straw with a high dented crown.
The- brim turned down all the
way around. Black rubber ribbon
was placed around the crown to
form two stripes. A large
feather pom-pom was put right
in the center. It surely was a
fetching little chapeau.
