THE LAW OP BIRDLAND
A complete, aew adventure each
week, beginning Monday and end
ing Saturday.
(In previous adventures Peggy has been
crowned Princess of Blrdland and has met
many Interesting characters among ths birds
and animals.)
CHAPTER I.
Peggy Takes a Slide.
PEGGY was on a picnic in the
woods a picnic at which sh,e
was the only child. She had
looked forward eagerly to the outing,
hoping for a jolly playtime with the
birds. But, like old Mother Hubbard,
who went to the cupboard, she suffer
ed a disappointment.
When she got there, the forest wss hare.
And all her bird friends bnd flown.
As her mother and the other woineir
laughed and talked over their knit
ting, Peggy gazed longingly at the
depths of the woods. Perhaps the

LIVELY PACE.
birds were in there scared away by
the chatter of the picnic party. Her
eyes, coming back to her mother, ask
ed a question. Mother' hadn't been
grown up 'so very long and she knew
what Peggy meant. She smiled and
nodded. . Peggy brew her a grateful
kiss and slipped happily away.
It was very dark in the forest and
mysteriously silent. Always before
when Peggy had been in the woods
she had boen cheered by the merry
twittering and singing of the birds.
Now there wasn't even a chirp just
an occasional drowsy hum as a honey
laden bee buzzed homeward, or a
scurry in the leaves as a squirrel
darted nervously out of sight.
Where could the birds me? had they
gone on an excursion, or had some
new foe appeared to drive them from
the forest?
"O my birds" cried Peggy. "Where
Former Omaha Boy Chief

Omaha boy, but more recently living
in Chicago, has enlisted in the navy
and. will be stationed at the Great

Mrs. D. M. MacWhorter and his
two brothers, Rev, Hugh .M, Mac
Whorter: and Rev. Gardner A. Mac
Whorter in Chicago.
Rumors of Counterfeit
Money in Omaha Spiked
One more canard has died a hard
death.
That 50,000 counterfeit quarters are
in circulation in Omaha is a tale that
has been floating about the streets
for a week. All new quarters with
out three stars on the observe side
beneath the eagle and above the words
quarter dollar were said to be coun
terfeit. The tale hat been credited
to B. A. Wilcox, vice-president of the
Umaha IMational bank.
Mr. Wilcox vigorously denied au
thorship of the story.
Officials at the bank said that some
of the new quarters have the three
stars and others have none, but both
fkinds are genuine. No reports of any
counterfeit quarters have 'been re
ceived at the bank. x
County Complains Against
' Failure to Return Acreage
County Commissioner Tom O'Con
nor, has forwarded an official
complaint from Douglas county to the
secretary of the state against Ne
braska counties, which have not yet
returned full acreage for 1918 taxa
tion. There Have been many such
counties, who have fallen short of j
even J917 returns.and Jftis has led to
complaints hat Douglas county is
made to bear the burden of the state
taxes, ft is now up to the 'State

are you?" There was no answer. She
tried again, putting her hands to her
mouth so the souud would carry
farther. "Where are you?"
"Who! Who!" came back an echo
like answer from far away .
' "You! You!" cried Peggy. "'Where
are you?" There was no further reply
and Peggy ran on in the direction
from which the voice had come. When
she had goitV a long way she shouted
once more: "Where are you?" The
Toice promptly replied from tip in a
tree:
"'Tl rude. I should say.
To yell that loud way,
When a party Is sound asleep;
To wake with a Jar
My temper doth mar.
Why can't you keep still like a sheep?"
"Why, Judge Owl, is that you?"
Pfggy recgonized the queer poetry
even if she hadn't known the voice.
"Yes, it's me, and I was just hav
ing my beauty slumber when you
woke me up. I'll fine you." Judge
Owl flopped down where he could
see her. "Oh, it's Princess Peggy.
I'm mighty glad to see you, even if
yott did spoil my nap. What are you
doing here?" '

"Why, that's sp. Where are they?"

to republican Voters
The supreme duty of republican voters of the State of Nebrawa, U
ROSS HAMMOND, as a candidate for United States Senator.
We urge his name upon you because, knowing him well, we believe that he possesses the qualities of
sound Americanism, clear judgment in a great crisis, and courage and fidelity to his convictions quali
fies greatly needed in the men who are to represent Nebraska in the United States Senate during the
fateful days which will follow until the war is prosecuted to a successful conclusion.
Because Ross Hammond was right in the great questions of'wartnd peace following President Wil
son's war message of April 2nd, 1917, we have a right to assume that he will be equally sound in the
questions to come.
We cannot claim that we are electing a republican senator to support the war, if we put in men, who
opposed the-critical war measures in April and May, -191 7. ' ' ,
We cannoj hope to elect a republican senator from Nebraska, unless we nominate a man with the
record of Ross Hammond on the big issues of the day., v
We therefore urge you to vote for him at the primaries. '

"It's Monday," answered lYgRy.
"Thunderation," hooted Judge Owl.
"ThereI've gone and slept through
most of the party."
"What party?" asked Teggy.
"The hirds' harvest party, of
course," replied Judge Owl. "Why
aren't you there?'
"Because I wasn't invited," replied
Peggy, feeling a trifle hurt.
"Oh, but I sent Brownie Owl early
last evening to invite you. Something
must have happened to him. But, come
on, we'll have a lotVf fun yet if I can
find my way through this blinding
sunlight." Judge Owl started blunder
ing along, but Peggy stopped him.
"I've brought yon a present," she
cried. "What do you think it is? A
pair of goggles so that you can see in
the day as well as in the night."
"My gracious, I never heard of a
bird wearing goggles," said Judge
Owl.
Peggy had found the pair of toy
automobile goggles among her play
things, ana had figured they would
be just right for him. She slipped
them upon his beak and found them
a perfect fit. "Say, this is fine," hoot
ed the judge. "I can see as though it
were pitch dark. I surely, do thank
you, Princess Peggy."
Judge Owl was now able to lead the

way at a lively pace. Soon they came
out on the top of a high clay cliff
overlooking the river. Prom below
them came a cry.
"Help! Help!"
"It's Brownie Owl," hooted the
iudce. . "I was afraid lie was in
trouble."
Pegry leaned over the edge of the
cliff, but could see nothing. Judge
Owl fluttered down for a closer look.
"Brownie Owl is walled up in a
hole," he called back to Peggy. "Come
down and help him."
The cliff was very steep. At the
bottom was the swift flowing river.
A slip would send her into it. Peggy
hesitated, but only for a moment
Brownie Owl had met harm while
on his way to her. She would save
him.
She crept along a narrow ledge
and soon came to a hole from which
Brownie Owl's head was sticking.
As for his body, it was packed in
tight with clay and he couldn't stir a
bit.
Teggy dug away the hard clay and
lifted him out. He was just like a
lump of dirt, only his head and feet
showing. As Peggy started to climb
back ufl the cliff the earth gave way
beneath her feet. Down she shot into
the water. It was shallow, but the
bottom was of soft clay, which
seemed to suck her, down and drag
her toward the rapid current Hold
ing Brownie Owl in one hand, she
tried to wade, only to find her feet
held fast in the shifting ooie. In a
moment she would sink into the river
and then
