BURGESS THE FOOLISH QUARREL R EE T doesn't pay. It never does. And yet some people never seem to learn this. Just take the case of Happy Jack Squlr.-el and his cousin. Chatterer the Red Squirrel. In the Green Forest were ever so many hick ory trees, and there were more nuts than Happy Jack and Chatterer could eat In a lifetime. But both were so greedy that here they were quarrel ing over the nuts which the Merry Little Breezes had shaken down from the top of a tall chestnut tree. Happy Jack claimed all those brown nuts were his because he had happened to be right under that par ticular tree when the Merry Little Breezes shook them down. Chatterer had been near enough to hear them as they rattled down and had come running over to get a share. At once Happy Jack had tried to drive him away. Chatterer had refused to go. In fact, at the sight of all those nuts on the ground Chatterer had at once decided that he would have all of them. You see he was quite as greedy as Happy Jack. Those brown nuts didn't really belong to either of them, and wouldn't until they had been picked up and hidden away. But Hap py Jack and Chatterer didn't stop to think of this. Each was so greedy that he wasn’t willing to let the other have a single one. “T h ie f!” shouted Happy Jack. "Robber!” cried Chatterer. “No such thing! They're all mine because 1 found them nrst,” sput tered Happy Jack. "Pig. pig. pig!” shouted Chatterer, thrusting out his tongue at Happy Jack. Do you wonder that the Merry Lit tle Breezes, who had thought to help Happy Jack and Chatterer, looked down in dismay and stopped shaking down the brown nuts? Do you won der that Sammy Jay. hearing those sharp angry voices, came stealing si lently up to see what such a dreadful quarrel was about? You can depend on It that Sammy will be somewhere about when anything like that is go ing on.

Then as they grew angrier and angrier they began to fight, each trying to drive the other away. Happy Jack, as you know. Is a great deal bigger than Chatterer, but Chatterer is quicker and more nimble, and his teeth are quite as sharp as Happy Jack's. So it wasn't as uneven a fight as you might think They forgot the brown nuts lying there among the leaves on the ground B O N E R S are actual humoroua tidbit* found in examination papers, essays, etc., by teachers.

What ls the greatest thing we find? The wise may say the learned mind. The fool his passions and delights— Yet life some sudden question writes Fools cannot answer, nor wise Do more thpn wonder and surmise. What ls the greatest thing? Not these Poor things that either pain or please To love, to feeL to smile, to grieve. Not much to know hut much believe— For, books or pleasure, wealth or strife. The greatest thing in life Is life. Then as They Grew Angrier and An grier, They Began to Fight. They forgot everything but their an ger. They chased each other around the trees and up in the trees, all the time losing their tempers more and more. Now their little cousin. Striped Chipmunk, wasn't far away, and of course he heard that dreadful quar rel. He pricked up his ears. Then he stole softly over to see what it was all about Happy Jack and Chatterer didn't see him. They didn't see any thing or anybody but each other. Striped Chipmunk watched them for a few minutes. Then he spied the brown nuts which the Merry Little Breezes had shaken down. His bright eyes sparkled. He chuckled. “1 suspect.” said he. “that these are what they are quarreling about How silly. How very foolish. These nuts belong to anyone who can get them. They are as much mine as theirs.” Without wasting another minute Striped Chipmunk stuffed the pockets In his cheeks with those brown nuts until he couldn't get another one In. Then away he scurried. Pretty soon he was back again. He paid no at tention to his quarreling cousins, hut stuffed his pockets again and was off to his secret storehouse. Back and forth he scurried, work ing with might and main. He knew that once Happy Jack and Chatterer stopped quarreling and discovered him they would drive him away, and he would have to go because he was too little to fight Sammy Jay watched him and chuckled The Merry Little Breezes saw him and they chuckled. But his two big cousins were still fighting and saw only each other. At last Happy Jack and Chatterer had to stop for breath. They were too tired to run and fight any longer. But still each was determined that the other shouldn't have those brown nuts. Happy Jack looked down to gloat over the treasure he had been fighting for. Then he gave a little gasp. Not a single brown nut was to he seen. Chatterer did the same thing. For a few minutes both forgot their quarrel and raced down to pull over the leaves in search of those nuts. Not one was to be found. Their foolish quarrel had been for nothing. Just nothing at all. ft. 1919- bv T . W. Burse»».— W N U Servle*.

Have the plates, cups, the hot dish, what ever Is served In casserole, hot toast ready to serve with the hot meat dish and the tea or coffee equipment as well as the silver to be used, all on the top shelf.
