A Queer
By Thornton V. Borgess
. No greater blenftinas come to you
Than friends you're proren tried and true.
WHEN Jimmy Skunk met Farmer
Brown's boy In the Long Lane that
leads to tne cornfield he received one
of the greatest surprises of his life.
Yes, sir,, he did. It was the first time
in his life Jimmy had met any one who
wouldn't step aside for him. Even
great big Buster Bear always stepped
out of Jimmy's way when they hap
pened to meet, and was most polite
about it. ' Jimmy couldn't think of a
single person in the Green Forest or on
the Green Meadows who didn't politely
step out of his way and treat him with
the greatest respect.
5 So when Jimmy saw Farmer Brown s
boy ahead of him in the Long Lane he
paid no particular attention to him.
He expected to see him get out of the
way. He bad met sucb two-legged
creatures before and never once had
they failed to get out of the way and
do It in a hurry. So jfrhen Farmer
Brown's boy stood still right In his way
Jimmy was so surprised he didn't know
Just what to do. ,
He stamped his feet angrily, and
Farmer Brown's boy merely smiled.
Then he raised his big tail. Every
body knows that this is a warning, a
danger signaj. Farmer Brown's boy
merely smiled more broadly tharf be
fore. Then Jimmy was tempted to' shoot
that little scent gun he carries and which
every one is so afraid of. He would
teach Farmer Brown's boy a lesson.
But after a minute Jimmy thought
better of it It is a matter of honor
with him never to shoot that little scent
gun unless he Is In danger or thinks he
fs.v This two-legged creature appeared
harmless enough. He simply stood per
fectly still. Perhaps he was too scared
to run. .This idea , tickled Jimmy. So
he lowered bis danger signal, his tail,
you know, and ambled along straight
toward Fanner Brown's boy.
But as he. i drew near he saw that
Farmer Brown's boy wasn't scared. The
look In his eyes told tfhnmy- that. And
suddenly Jimmy began to wonder if
perhaps he wasn't the one who should
be afraid. But fear is something Jimmy
knows little about, so he kept right on.

Friendship
But inside Jimmy there was born, right
then and there, very great respect, for
Farmer Brown's bo, more respect man
he had for anybody else of his acquaint
ance. When, he was near enough to
sniff at the .shoes of Farmer Brown's
boy and still the latter did not move
; Jimmy was filled with understanding
they were to be friends.
Presently Jimmy went on a little
way. Then Farmer Brown's boy went

-on down the Long Lane toward the corn
Jimmy followed after a little. He found1
Farmer Brown's boy digging in the
'warm, brown earth. Presently Jimmy
found a fat, white grub Farmer Brown's
boy had turned up, Jimmy became In
terested at once. He followed along
behind and presently found another
white grub a fat one. Then Farmer
Brown's boy picked up something and
tossed it over to Jimmy. It was still
another fat, white grub.
; So a queer friendship was begun.
Jimmy Skunk was smart enough to
know that Farmer Brown's boy was not
afraid of him, and, at the same, would
do him no harm. Farmer Brown's boy
Was wise enough to understood that so
long as fie did nothing to startle Jimmy
he wouldn't so much as think of using
that little scent gun.
? Sharp eyes soon discovered what was
going on and soon the word was all
over the Green Meadows and through
the Green Forest that Jimmy . Skunk
and Farmer Brown's boy were friends
and neither was afraid of the. other,
and in the hearts of alt the other little'
people there was a new respect for each.

THE
ices -Va
THAT coming down the path through
the wild wood to the car this morn'
ing our ear was arrested by an old
familiar "ding-dong, ding-dong."
That It wasn't a school bell.
That it sounded too soft and sweet
for that. ' 1
That it carried us back in memory
years and years to the days when
the old scissors-grinding man used
to plod up our street back home
with his grinding machine strapped
over his shoulders.
e IW
That he used to ring a bell that
sounded just like the one we heard
this morning.
That in the old days his coming
would be the signal for us to run
into the house to see if mother had
any knives or scissors to' be sharp
ened. !
That If she had, we'd take them
out and watch woridrouty and
marvel at the sparks that sputtered
from the grinder's wheel.
ft '
That as we mused on those old
days brought back by the tinkling
of the bell we could almost believe
that we were really living in the
past.
That we wished for a moment that
it might be so.
That as we emerged from the
woods our first thought was to lo
cate the source of the tintinnabula
tion. That rounding a corner two blocks
away came an old man-with a grind
stone on his back.
That his actual presence there
seemed almost as unreal as our
memories had seemed real.
That to make this experience end
as all good stories do. he shouJd have
turned out to be the same old man
who used to entertain us in our
childhood.
I'
That he may have been at that.
That we didn't ask him.
m Be
That we could never; again be the
same to each other, anyway.
Well, Here's the Letter to the 'L. W.'
'Member the other day when the
letter came addressed to the "L.
W. of The Stroller"? We promised
to tell you about it. and it's so in
teresting that we're going to pub
lish it. Here it is:
To the L. W. of "The, Stroller" :
I wonder if you have ever real
ized how much pleasure your
"Stroller" has given to others less
fortunate than yourselves.
Of course, "The Stroller" is de
serving of much credit for the In
teresting manner in which he "gets
up" his column. But to you there
is a great deal of credit due ; for
you. the Titian and ; the Littlest
One are the Inspiration for the
most interesting part ' of the col
umn. For Instance. Easter Sunday
was a lonely day for me, and as
I sat musing by the window many
"happy families" walked by, and
my thoughts went out tot "The
Stroller's" family, and . as a ray of
sunshine came the thought that
tomorrow will bring "The Journal
with an account of a happy day
for them, and this thought robbed
' my own longing and .loneliness of
much of its sadness and I tried to,
forget the seeming unkind fate
which has robbed me of the pleas
ures which you enjoy.
Please pardon this burst of sen
timent, but as long as Ihe column
continues and I hope; it wllJ be a
long time I assure you it will be
enjoyed by AN OLD MAID.
Oh Dear, Oh Dear.! Another
"Romance" Shattered
Portland. April 12.
Dear Stroller:
You mistook us in our letter a
few days ago for a boy and a girl,
and you drew a picture to that ef
fect. Now, don't faint when you
find your 'HSigns of Spring" were
misleading. We are not a boy and a
girl, but two boys. We held the
news off until now so as not to
break it so sudden, but we know
you'll forgive us for writing a mis
leading letter, and we forgive you
for mistaking us.
We would like to know if you no
ticed that out Newberg way a lot
of people who had just glanced at
the paper and read about a paved
road to McMinnville and had not,
by reading It through, found out
that it WOULD be paved, were
hunting everywhere for that road?
Yours, J. H. and E. B.
To Wm. Bnehler Jr.
We haven't overlooked that little
plan of yours it's a good one, too,
but we're going to wait for a spell
o' fine weather before we spring it.
How's that?
Monday's mail wasn't as heavy as
usual. Of course, there "was a rea
son. Sunday's sunshine. Who
would stay indoors on a day like
Sunday and write letters? Not us,
and we wouldn't expect anyone else
to do so. But even so, we're still
behind on our correspondence, and
we'll be with you again tomorrow.

Famous Singer
Is Here for
Concert
RICCARDO STRACCIARI. who sings
Wednesday night at the Hellig the
atre under the direction of Steers & Co
man, scored a triumph in Seattle last
Thursday. The Post-Intelligencer April
9 says:
"Straoclari is a master oi style in
singing; his voice Is an instrument no
resource of which is unrealised in his
art, and he possesses a command of
lyric effects utterly beyond Jhe limits
of Ruffo's endowment. His principal
number was the merry "Largo al fac
totum," from Rossini's "II barbiere di
Siviglla." which he sang with a grace
and spirit and vocal flexibility which
made it easy to understand why his in
terpretation of this particular aria won
for him the fervid admiration of opera
goers in Chicago and New York. It
would be difficult to conceive of a more
admirable recreation of this work than
that given by Stracclarl."
The Time aava
"Stracclarl not only sings with superb
arti-., K, h ,,- k.
Singing he created a desire In his audi
ence to hear him in character; yet as he
sang he peopled his stage with familiar
characters and sang with them.
"Possessed of a remarkable range, his
upper notes, which he took with no ef
fort, are most pleasing, flowing as even
ly as his middle range, where his power
Is best displayed. His triumphs with
the Chicago Opera company are easily
credited."
Stracclarl arrived in the city
morning, and is at the Benson.

Sam Meyer Going South
Sam Meyer of the Hippodrome theatre
will leave Wednesday for a few days'
trip to San Francisco, where he will
visit relatives and attend to business
affairs. That, at least, is what Meyer
says he is going for. His friends be- j
lieve that he goes down to California i
every now and then to satisfy his own :
mind that nobody has picked the Call- i
fornia metropolis up and carted it away, j
Meyer says that he will return before
the date of the first of his annual birth
day anniversaries, which occurs this
year early in May instead of the latter
part of March, as It did last year.
