Mother’i_D_oll Story The Pussy Willow O ‘There was once a little girl who had a pet doll kitten. His name was Puff- ball. He was so fat he looked as I am not prepared to say that femse guns of our present system is past, but it is the undoubted sentiment among coast artillery officers in our service that we must at least supplement our ‘permanent ones with some suft- able type of heavy mobile artil- lery. Whether these guns should be mounted on flat cars to be transported on a railroad or by motor trucks on the highways is an open question. The latter method would undoubtedly afford a greater degree of moblility, but in the present condition of our highway systems it is almost im- possible of attainment. One of the most important phases of real military prepared- ness that can possibly be.under- taken is that which {3 going on under the impetus of the good roads movement, now become so general all over the country.

One beautiful spring day the little girl took Puffball out for a long walk. They went down by a little brook be- hind their home and threw tiny stones’ into the water just to see it splash. It was (relt fun. i “I wish we could find some flowers,, don’t you, Puffball?’ said the little girl. Puffball smiled wisely. He knew ofv something just as nice as May flowers or violets. ! “Come with me. my dear,” said Puff- ball, still smiling. ! 80 the little girl and Puffball walked along beside the brook till they came to some bushes. Some of them had: red stalks and some had yellow. And|> there on branches not too high for a' lttle girl to reach grew the softest, prettiest little gray wads.
