CHAPTER I.
The Wedding Invitation.
OOM! Boom!" tolled the big
bell of the city hall clock.
he sound carrying far
through the silence of the night
caused Peggy to open her eyes wide
in sleepy surprise.
"Only 2 o'clock she murmured.
"That's strange. It's as light as
dav. I wonder if that clock is slow?"
'"'Who! W'hol" came a call outside
her window.
"The clock," answered Teggy, sit
ting up. "I am wondering if the clock
is slow.'"
"Who! Who!" came the call again.
Peggy realized hat it wasn't a ques
tion at all. It was the hoot of an
Owl.
"Oh, I hope it's a messenger from
Binlland," she cried, hopping out of
bed in a hurry.
On the roof of the porch was a
young Brownie Owl.
"Good night, Princess Peggy," he
said.
"Good day," corrected Peggy. Then
she remembered that it wasn't day, so
she changed her greeting, though it
did sound very tpieer. "Good night,
Brownie Owl."
"I have a message for you from
Judge Owl." hooted Brownie Owl.
"It's a wedding invitation."
A wedding! Peggy was delighted.
She'd never received a really, truly
wedding invitation of her own. She
took the rolled-up lily pad which
Brownie Owl held out to her and read
eagerly what Judge Owl had written
thereon :
"Fair Princess Peggy, come to the
wedding. At break of day, down by
the bay. I'll marry Miss Purple Swal
low "
Peggy felt a sharp pang of disap
pointment. "I don't think that's right," she
cried. "Judge Owl is old enough to
be Miss Purple Swallow's grandfather
She'd ought to marry General Swal-lthey
low. wh
o loves her with all his heart."

"There's more written on the other
side," interrupted Brownie Owl.
Peggy turned the leaf over and
read:
"To General Swallow."
Peggy was puzzled. Then she read
the whole sentence again. "I'll marry
Miss Purple Swallow to General Swal
low." At that a light dawned on
her.
"Oh, I sec, the Judge is going to
be the officiating clergyman." The
big words nearly staggered Teggy,
but she used them because she has so
often seen them in reading wedding
notices.
"That's it," hooted Brownie Owl.
"The Judge Is a bachelor, lie is wait
ing for you."
"He will have to wait a long, long
time," said Peggy. "I'll never catch
up with him."
"I mean lie is waiting for you to
come to the wedding," explained
Brownie Owl, much to Peggy's con
fusion. "I ought to have been here
hours ago with the invitation, but I
got lost in the light. The moon is as
bright as day tonight, and I couldn't
see where I was going."
This sounded queer to Peggy until
she reflected that Owls are night birds
and can see better in the dark than in
the light.
"I wouldn have been here yet,"
Continued Brownie Owl, "if some of
the guests hadn't been friends of
yours and shown me the way."
"Friends of mine? Who could they
be?" asked Peggy.
"Hee-haw Heehaw 1" came the anr
swer from the street. There sat Balky
Sam, the army mule, grinning broad
ly at her. Beside him were Billy Goat
and Johnny Bull, with mouths spread
wide in a friendly smile.
"Hee-haw! We've come to take you
to the wedding," cried Balky Sam
"We're in a hurry, so don't wait to
fuss."
Peggy ran downstairs and out the
front door. Balky Sam had trotted up
beside the steps.
"Get on my back," he hee-hawed,
"and I'll show you how fast I'll chase
the Germans when we get to France."

Monday and ending Saturday. T
might not be considered quite proper
wedding garb. But it was too late to
go back now.
Balky Sam certainly could go fast
when lie made up his mind to do so.
Peggy had to hang tight to his short
mane to keep from falling off.
Brownie Owl rode on Billy Goat's
back, while John Bull ran along be
side them. In a remarkably short time
they had left the city far behind and
were on the shores of a beautiful
tree-bordered bay.
"Wclcomet Princess Peggy," trilled
a lot of voices and Peggy, looking
into the shadows of the trees, saw
that all Birdland was there, waiting
for the wedding. General Swallow,
very happy and very much excited,
greeted her as she dismounted froth
Balky Sam's back. He sang:
"Oh, happy, happy wedding day,
My hoart Is blithesome, glad and gay;
Come, all my friends, rejoice with me.;
Let' dsnce and play right merrily." '
Judge Owl waddled lorward, look
ing so pleased over General Swallow's
happiness that Peggy felt a bit
ashamed of the suspicions she had of secretary-treasurer, Miss Lillian Erix
him when she read his invitation, on; executive committee, Chas. A.
Yet she knew in her heart she was Cobb, W. A. Morrison, V. H. John
right it would never do for such a son.

matter how nice he might be.
"Where is the beautiful bride?" -asked
Peggy.
General Swallow looked anxioui. "
"She's late," he replied. "She is
coming with her father and ought
to be here now." He looked up into '
the sky and so did all the other
Birds.
"There she comes! There she
comes!" cried General Swallow, as a
black speck darted toward them. "No
no, it isn't," he quickly contradicted
himself. "It's Purple Swallow, hei

Purple Swallow was shrieking loud
