Paer remarked as he VV laid the late election returns to one aide and Duffed contentedlv on his pipe. "I -wonder what them banker think about us common people now? "Probably." Ma remarked easily, "they a,ln't seen nothing to chance their minds much." "Maybe not," T., Paer answered, "but we ain't such blamed fools as we look . when it comes to puttin our votes in the box." "I don't know whether you ain't or not." Ma remarked, -' I don't want to serve on no Jury 'nd I ain't coin' to." "They ain't much danger," T. Paer grinned. "Any lawyer that'd ask you . half a dosen questions would fire you off If he was a good one." . Why- would her Ma asked bridling. "If I ain't got more sense than some jurors I've seen. Tuord help the Jury v system." 1 "I know you're awful smart." T. Paer admitted, "but, he added, "you're so blamed contrary you'd hang up the other- 11 lust out of habit." I ain't contrary when the other fel lah's right." Ma responded, "but I don't aim to have anything shoved down my throat just because somebody else wants , It." "But ay."' T. Paer chuckled, veering away from a dangerous argument, ,, "didn't they wallop the city council on that $200,000 bond business? I bet them . fellahs're so hot they need a whole new fire department to cool 'em off.' . "I guess,'. Ma answered, "the people're kind tired of pungling up every time the commissioners want more money to ; spend." "They're groin' to get the boys back to normalcy," T. Paer grinned. "From - now on if their shoes' re too little they'll : have to trim their corns to fit 'era." . That won't hurt anybody much unless it's - the commissioners." Ma conceded, "nd if they don't like it they can get to be taxpayers again nd feel like the rest of us." "It 'seems to me." T. Paer continued, "the people don't have a awful lot of . love for the legislature any more. . They take a wallop at it every chance they get." "I ain't thought of that," Mi answered. "What makes you think so?" "Why," T. Paer explained, 'look how they swatted that amendment to give "em a 60-day session 'nd pay 'em 95 day, 'nd then they turned around and : took the election of Port of Port land commissioners away . from 'em. If somebodyd fix up a bill to make 'em work for their board up at Salem ifd be a landslide."- , t 'No it wouldn't" Ma corrected, I "not if the people knew when they voted how much board costs la Salem during the legislature." ' . ... i .-: .. ' "They's something in that, T. Paer admitted. "I guess I don't think so much of the board stunt after all." "I'd like to be at the next legislature." Ma mused.. "I bet Gus Moser 'nd some of the others'll have an awful time next year." . "Well. T. Paer-observed, "that'll be fair enough. , They've been makln' the rest of us have a awful time for a long time, ain't they?" --!.;,.. "But, it'U be mighty : interesting to watch 'em try to find some way to get around the emergency clause veto." 'Oh, that'll be easy." T. Paer prophe sied, "they'll just tack 'em on 'nd pass the buck up to the' governor." : "If they do.' the govemor'U veto what ought to be vetoed 'nd that'll be all they is to It," Ma contended., "Gov ernors like to veto bills, anyway." -- "Maybe he will, if he's got the nerve to tell the fellahs where to head In," T. Paer said. " 'nd." . he supplemented, "if . the leg-ialature don't tret him in a hole-'nd trade him out of his vetoa." - "Im. awful glad they passed the bonus bill." Ma stated; I think that's a fine thing." "Yep.' T. Paer said, "unless the boys all take cash 'nd blow it in as soon as they get it" . ! " "Some of 'em may," Ma argued.! "but I've got too; much confidence in the boys to think they'll be that foolish." "I hope so." T. :Paer said, "but I'm goin' down 'nd buy me some ear . mufflers.- , M : ' ... "Ear mufflers !" Ma repeated. "What on earth do you want them for?". "When thia bonus gets to workin'. T. Paer explained, "you'll have to ; wear 'em or the weddtn' bells'U make you deaf." i , ! "I don't see why." Ma answered with a puasled air. "What's the bonua got to do -with weddiing bells?" I "What's- a soldier boy coin' to borrow money to build a home for if he ain't goi anybody to keep house for htm?" T. Paer demanded. " 'Nd," he added as a clincher, 'how's he goin' to get a housekeeper without ; weddin' bells r' j- Klug Eagle's Story By Thorntoa ;1V.

"Why did he do such a dread ful thing? .Those two-legged creatures : called Men . are the most awful crea tures. They do the worst things. Kvery fall - they hunt: me, when I haven't done a . thing- to them.1 And, they seem- 16 think it is fun -to try to kill me." - "Yes, and some of them' set traps, and that is the most unfair thing I know of,' spoke up Billy Mink.-; t "Farmer Brown's Boy doesn't, and he doesn't let anybody else do either of those things if he can help it" spoke up Chatterer the Bed Squirrel. "I don't believe he would start the Red Terror. Did that "Man do it . purposely. King Kagle?" --. "I don't think he did." replied King Eagle, shaking his snowy-white head. "But it is just as bad. I was. sailing round and round way up In "the air ; above the Great Mountain. "- You know I have very good eyes"- "Wonderful eyes," interrupted Sammy Jay. .. - "And I saw a , Man way down near the foot of the Great Mountain," con tinued King Eagle. Just as if he hadn't been Interrupted. "He was walking along a little path. By and by he stopped and put something in his mouth and then he took a tiny stick and struck the end of it on ai stone and the Red Terror sprang up bn the end of that tiny stick and he touched the thing in his mouth with the Red Terror. Then he threw the tiny stick downfin the path and didn't once loiok to see where - It fell. I guess he thought there was no longer any Red Terror on the end of that tiny stick, r . . "But he didn't took to see. He didn't even look to see where that tiny stick feU. ,But I saw1 where it felt It fell In some dry leaves. A few minutes later I saw the breath of the Red Terror rising - from . those leaves - and then the ' Red Terror itself. It ate , up those leaves and then jumped to the leaves beside . the path. It ate faster and faster and the faster it ate the greater the Red Terror grew. It began to climb the trees, and In a short time it was racing up the side of the Great Mountain as fast aa Lightfoot the Deer can run. . "It was then that the Man discov ered It. I saw . him stop and look be hind him. Then he began to run. and he ran away from the Red Terror, al though the Red Terror was not run ning toward hint. He ran aa If he want ed to get away from there without be ing seen by other Men. I know, for I i saw it all. looking down . from high up "Tell us about the man who started the Red Terror on the Great Moun tain, begged Bobby Coon, i In the sky. He didn't Set the Red Ter ror free purposely. I know that too, for I saw it. it was carelessness. And now the whole beautiful side of my i Great Mountain Is terrible to look at. All the trees and the bushes and the vines, and the plants that grew beneath them are gone and so are many of the little peo ple who lived there and could not get away. And Man did this" thing 1" j King Eagle's always fierce-looking eyes were terrible to see. , - "But other trees and bushes and vines and plants will grow there again, will they not?" asked Bobby Coon, hopefully. "In some places where the Red Terror passed hurriedly the trees and bushes and vines may grow In time, but In other places the Red . Terror has eaten down into the very soli- and left In it nothing for roots to feed on, and no tree can ever grow there again," replied King Eagle. -. "Though my years be many. I will never see a big tree on that side of the Great Mountain again. nor will any one else now living. it la a matter for great sadness." , He bowed nia handsome white head- in sorrow.
