IPeter Tells Spooky the Screech Owl All About It. BY THORNTON W. BURGESS. One purpose of your tongue. you'll find, Is o relieve a trovbled mind. —Peter Rabbit. Somehow, when you have some- thing on vou mind, something you cannot understand, or something that troubles you, or something that you feel you must believe. yet somehow cannot believe, it is a relfef to just tell some one else about fit. even though he may not be able to help you or to understand any better than you do. After Peter Rabbit popped out of Jimmy Skunk’'s house in the far cor- ner of the Old Orchard in such a hurry he knew that the wisest thing for him to do would be to go home to the dear Old Briar Patch. But he didn't 80. No, sir, he didn't go. He didn't éven start. Somehow he couldn't leave the far cormer of the Old Orchard. Peter's curiosity had been quite sat- isfied for the time being when he had discovered that Jimmy Skunk, or Mrs. Skunk, or whoever it 'was down there in that house, was not such a sound sleeper as Johnny Chuck. His one thought had been to get out of that house as fast as ever he could, and he had done just that thing. When he was two or three good jumps away from the doorstep he had turned and looked back. No one had followed him. There wasn't a sign of anyhody down ‘that long hall. Peter waited and waited, but no one appeared. Once more_ curiosity took possession of Peter Rabbit. There was a mys- tery in that house of Jimmy Skunk's. If he hadn't been down in there and discovered it for himself he couldn't and wouldn’t have believed it. But he had been down in there and dis- covered it and he had to believe it But even though he had to believe it, he couldn’t understand it. And some- how he couldn’t leave the far corner of the Old Orchard, because ne hoped that something would happen that would explain that mystery. Late that afternoon, when it was be- ginning to grow dusk, Peter sat star- e bl | LISTEN, WORLD! By Elsic Robinson They're going to separate. Yep, hadn’t you heard about it?

The “sanctity of a woman's feel- ings” is one of the most treasured traditions In this country. But how about the sanctity of a man’s feel- ings?

But why should he go on paying war tax while she collects dividends on her tears?
