Some »f their friends thought Johnny and Polly Chuck had done just the right thing in coming up to the Old Or- chard. Others thought they had been ery foolish, and didn’t hesitate to s0. Johnny listened and smiled said nothing. It was a good home. as a safe home. And it suited Polly Chuck. So what other peopde sald didn't matter to Johnny. Of course, it wasn't long before old Granny Fox heard that the Chu bad left the Long Lane and moved up to the Old Orchard. Reddy Fox told her. There is little going on in the Green Forest, or on the Green Meadows that the Fox family doesn’t know about. With Reddy Fox and Mrs. Reddy and old Granny Fox it is part of the business of living to know what is going on about them. “I shall have to pay them my re- spects,” said old Granny Fox with a grin “Of course they will to see you,” replied Reddy. “They ~didn’t invite 1 called, but perhaps th wnd be delighted s0 gri me will old Granny Fox knew joking. ~ She grinned than before but said Heddy trotted away course, that Reddy w nore broadly othing, and “Experts in cheese making or gmemtions make this smoother cream cheese Phila _ delphia Cream Cheese NEVER SOLD IN BULK chairs.

WHEN WE GO SHOPPING BY MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN. “Glass” Curtains. Choosing the “glass” curtains for the house—that iy, the ones that iie next to the glass of the window panes—is an extremely important problem in the average home. Plain- ress in glass .curtaing com- mends itself. Their object, we might remember to oug frequent advantage, is not to be extremely decorative in | themselves, but to adn the light and exclude the glare, to soffen =and tone the outside light it enters the room and t¢ blend with the a whole.
