His appearance in grand opera and upon the concert platform has endeared him to music lovers throughout the world. He is an international figure ranking with the greatest of the vocal artists. This city has shown fine discrimination in the past in responding to first class attractions and the opportunity of hearing Martin is one that should pack every available seat in the Auditorium.

Or rather Paddy-foot led his pursuer to the tree and disap- peared. Then Hooty Owl hooted overhead and Mister Bob-Cat climbed up after him, but Hooty flew away just in time. Next Drummer Par- tridge called out a few trees ahead and Mister Bob Cat made a third at- tempt for his dinner. Well, lo and. behold,- Drummer Partridge got away, too, flew right under Mister Bob Cat's nose and left him as hungry as Tom Tucker. “Goodness! I must be geiting| dumb!” spat the old felow in dis-, gust. “Oh, there’s Paddy-foot Rab- bit again. I'll get him this time!” But: Paddy-foot’ must have “been looking hard,.for he scampered off just as he had before, tearing straight for a gum tree, with Mister Bob Cat at his heels, But he shot down a hole just as he had before. Then Hooty Owl hooted overhead | and up went Mister Bob Cat again.!
