THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 28, 1914. G Little toriay forB ecMme By THOH NTON W BUROBS3 Joy Among tiie Old Corn Stalks. The happiest place in all th world You know it; ot course you do. It's the place called home your very own. Now haven't I told yon true? Of course I have. There Isn't any place like it for pure joy and happiness.-There may be much- finer homes than your own, but right down, deep J n your heart you know perfectly well that not even In the finest of them there is so much real happiness as In your own dear home not for you, any way. Now, the home of Danny Mead ow Mouse wasn't much to look at. It was just a little round house of coin , sliuckK and grass in the middle of a pile of old corn stalks on the edge of .Karnfer Brown's'corn field, tout to Lit tle Mite, the lost baby of Danny, whom Farmer Brown's boy had brought back again without knowing it, it was "the most beautiful place in all the Oreat "World. As he scrambled down among the cornstalks to the little path that led to the little round doorway he called at the top of his funny little squeaky voire, "Here I am! Here I am!. I've -omo home. I've come home!" Out tumbled his brother and two sisters, Teeny, Weeny - and Mldsret, and crowded around him and rubbed noses with him, which is the Meadow Mouse way of kissing, and told him how glad they Were to se him and anked him if lie really had een the Great World and what it was )ik. all talking at once and making such a squeaking as that pile of old cornstalks never had known before. l.lttle Mite wondered why his father and mother didn't come out to greet him and as soon as he got a chance he asked where, they were. "They arecout hunting for you," re plied Teeny. "They've been out. every clay since you went away, and we've ail been so miserable and lonesome Yon won't run away again, will you MHe?" "Never!" declared Mite. "Never so long as I live!" And he really meant It "Won't this be the best surprise for father and mother that ever , was?" cried Midget," daneing about excitedly "Yirtl go inside the house. Mite, and we'll play outside. Then when they go In they'll find you there. Oh, won't it he fun?" So when they thought it was ahout thne for Danny and Nanny Meadow MoU.se to return Mite went inside. He wondered what they would say to him and what they would do to punish him, for he knew that he deserved to be punished. You see, if he hadn't dis obeyed in the first plaoe he wouldn't have been lost. But he was so glad to be home attain that "he didn't mind the thought of punishment. Nothing could be worse than what he' had been through. Danny and Nanny were late In get- aywlt 'Here I am! come home! Here I am! I've I've (toma home!" ting home, and they were so tired and footsore with their long search for Little Mite, and so sad that it made Mite's heart ache as he peeped out at them. It really was punishment enough just to see them and to feel that he w$s the cause of it. They noticed right away that Teeny, Weeny and MJdget seemed very much excited. Danny stopped to ask the reason," but Nanny hurried into the house. Such a squeal as there was then! Danny rushed in to see what had happened and then well, I don't "believe .that there ever was such a time before in a Meadow -Mouse home. Natiny was crying and laughing at the' dame time, Mite was crying a little, and even Danny had to blow his nose very hard and wipe his eyes. ,Of course Mite expected a scolding at least, but he didn't get it, No, sir, he didn't et It. You see." when he told all about his terrible adven tures his father and mother thought he had been punished enough. Instead of scolding they prepared a breat feast. and while they ate it Mite told all over again about his adventures. Everybody asked Questions arfd there was such a happy squeaking and chattering down in that pile of old cornstalks that finally Danny had to put a stop to It for fear that Reddy Fox or Old Man Covote might be prowling around and hear it. And when at last they all went to befl in the little house there was great joy among the old corn etalks, for everything had come out right, just as Peter Rabbit had told Danny Meadow Mouse it would. ed: " T3y the way Vrhen- yore farther euros hoam.

"Aboard for Abroad" is a well put together and well put over; patter logue. Harry Godfrey and Veta Hen derson are responsible.' They carry a special drop and go big. A splendid opening act is the unicycle work of Jack and Jessie Gibson. If the com edy is not needed for breathing spells the act would be stronger without it. The orchestra and Mutual Weekly of current events complete the bill. Comedy Is Delightful. A really delightful comedy Is "The Man on the Box; by Harold Mao Grath, with Max Figman in his or iginal role of Lieutenant Warburton, at the Peoples for the entire week.

It begins on the plains with Lieu tenant Bob about to start out in com mand of an" escort for a provision train. The attack of the Indians, Bob's ride for help and the rescue prize last Saturday.
