True song 15 ever from the heart. B R e e LL the neighborhood had heard of the singing Mouse in Farmer | Brown's house and there had been many visitors hoping to see and hear it. Few had, however, for the little Wandering Minstrel, as he was called, was not to be depended on at all. There was no knowing when he would appear or when he would be heard. “What makes him sing?” asked one neighbor. “They do say that only a sick Mouse sings,” said another. “What I mean is that, according to what I have read, the singing may be caused by something wrong with the breath- ing apparatus or the vocal cords, or something like that. It just isn't natural for a Mouse to sing.” “It is for this one” said Mother Brown tartly, “Some scientists think that it may be thag all Mice sing, but that the pitch is too high for our ears,” said Farmer Brown’s Boy. “Then if once in & while & Mouse happened to have THE LITTLE WANDERING MIN- STREL SANG ONLY WHEN HE FELT LIKE IT. a lower-pitched voice we might hear it and that would be a singing Mouse.” | “That seems more reasonable than the idea that there is anything wrong | with the singer,” said Mother Brown. “There certainly is nothing wrong with ours. Sick Mouse, indeed! If you could see him eat you wouldn't think there was anything the matter | with him.” | “Well, he might be healthy in other ways and still have something wrong with his breathing or his vocal cords, might he not?” asked one of Bedtime Stories ‘A Question Settled. the visitors. Winning THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C.. FRIDAY, “If that was the case he would be likely to sing most of the time, wouldn’t he? Anyway, he would sing when he didn't want to sometimes, but he doesn't. He sings only when he wants to,” declared Mother Brown. “tlow do you know that?” demanded & visitor. “Because he sings only when every- thing is quiet and peaceful, and re- fuses to sing when strangers are present. If his singing was caused by anything wrong with his throat, he would be likely to sing most of the time. Strangers being present wouldn't make any difference,” re- plied Mother Brown. “He sings for the same reason a cat purrs,” spoke up Farmer Brown's Boy. “What do you mean by that?” asked a visitor. “To express his feelings,” replied Parmer Brown's Boy. “A Cat purrs when she is happy and contented, never at other times. It is the same way with birds in their singing; they sing because they are happy; Cats purr and birds sing to express hap- piness and contentmentyand for their | own pleasure. It is the same way | with this little Mouse. We've watched Brain Twizzlers BY PROF. J. D. FLINT, A VERY ingenious man who was both an inventor and a scientist created a mechanical man capable of performing amazing acts. The in- ventor claimed so many remarkable things that a large business concern devised a test for the mechanical man. L] o o 00000O0O00O A large area was marked off and 64 spots were placed for the machine- man to cross. The testers required that the mechanical man move only in straight lines witk turns at right angles, no diagonal turns, to cross all the spots. The machine-man must start at the upper left corner (as viewed by diagram) and pass through him enough to know that. There may have been Mice who sang be- | cause they couldn't help it, but it is i not so with this one. If he doesn’t | want to sing he doesn’t sing.” | It was just as Farmer Brown's Boy said. The little Wandering Minstrel sang only when he felt like it, and he felt like it only when he was con- tented and happy. If he was fright- ened or disturbed, his song ceased instantly and was not likely to be heard again for some time. So it was settled beyond a doubt that, while the singing of some singing Mice may be involuntary, there is now and then & Mouse who can and does sing be- cause it wants to, and that this sing- ing is often an expression of pleasure, That very evening after the visitors had left the little Wandering Min- strel came out for his supper and then another discovery was made. He could do something that I don’t believe you can do. What was that? | Well, he could eat and sing at the same time. Yes, sir, he could and did. He sang with his mouth full. Well, perhaps it wasn't full, but there was food in it. in order to sing. He ate right along and he sang right along, which was Quite an accomplishment. Don't you think so? What is that you asked? Yes, this is the story of a real singing Mouse. It is really true. (Copyright, 19374 Contract | Opening Trump Lead.

You should sit in some spot where Reddy cannot see you and watch him snip off the cones. He has no idea of conservation. He covers the ground with the harvest, and then he goes to work shucking or opening the nuts and carries his food to one of his numerous store houses. Fortunately, he forgets some of them and the nuts, at the proper time, begin to grow and replenish the woods. It has been claimed that these squirrels plant many of the nuts in a single pocket and to the right depth for growing. Perhaps he is, after all, not 80 stupid and wasteful.
