No more woman's work for him! In four or five more days he would be a brave, and allowed to accompany his father on those wonderful hunting trips! First, he wa clothed for the occasion. His mother, Waneta, the beautiful Indian squaw, placed on his feet a pair of deerskin leggings, which were finely worked out in various colored beads. A short kilt was gathered around his slender waist. This also was made of deerskin, and was worked around the edge with short eagle feathers, stained in many colors. As the day was cold, a blanket, made by Waneta, was thrown over his shoulders, which otherwise would have been bare.

And then the little Indian lad was ready for the great ordeal. He was led to a lonely spot in the forest, and after Fighting-Eagle hud given his son a few wise words of counsel he went medleu, Edward Linn, rfertha Llndtvelt. Robert Larmour, E. L'Homtnedleu.

People went in and out as they would go in and out of any large structure. They could not tell from the feeling under their feet whether they were afloat or ashore. Silent, massive, motionless, in the midst of the music of an orchestra, the chatter of good-byes, the hurry of belated baggage trucks, the ponderous ship rested. Dock hands hauled away a few gang planks; one or two sections of railing were slipped Into place; men and women crowded together un the wharf so far below the steamer aecks that they could hardly be separately distinguished by their friends on board. For a few seconds sounded a deep hoarse blast of steam; then without sound or commotion of THE THE Kitchen Clock was so full of laugh that it almost fell oft the shelf, for it knew that in another minute it would strike 12, and then it could talk, but best of all it would frighten puss.

Pssuie was at that minute on the ehelf in the pantry with her head in the bowl of cream, and when the clock struck the first stroke of 12 it did so with a loud bang, and off the shelf fell Puss and the bowl, too. "Why didn't you frighten a body to death?" asked Pussie, as she came out of the pantry. "Oh! ho, ho," laughed the clock. "I guess I did scare you some, but what were you doing in there, anyway? You ere never allowed in there." "That careless cook left the door open," said Pussie, and I thought I should look in and see if there were any mice about. You gave tne a fine scare, and you are to blame that a bowl is broken.

I bet I'll get blamed for it." "Funny it happened to be the bowl that held the cream for breakfast," laid the clock. "What were you doing on the shelf looking for mice? They are usually in the closets under the shelves." "That Is all you know about it, Mr. Clock," said Pussie, "You sit up there high on the shelf and think you know it all, but you never leave this room, Moving Picture Funnies THIS IS JUST Ttf WE.

National defense, for which we all, aa members of the Women's Section of the Navy League, were working, came first. "But it was understood that the duty of actual fighting does not belong to women. There was not a gun at the camp. Should war ever come to this country, we women could help In a number of different ways. We could go behind the lines as an organized body of nurses' aids; or we could carry on work for the sick and wounded in our homes and communities.

And in time of peace we could do all In our power to promote patriotism and prosperity throughout our country. To this end we listened to lectures on 'Good 'Food 'Home-Visiting 'Home 'Woman's Position in the Red and other topics of interest to us in our dailv life." Margaret Dadmun, in St. Nicholas PROF. G.

NEWS OF THE SCHOOLS WALKS AND TALKS BY JULIUS "CHAMBERS away, and Eagle-Eye was left alon without food or shelter. A day passed and Eagle-Eye grew faint. Two days passed by and the. boy's thirst grew Intense. But he did not even think of giving in! Thi close of the third awful day, founa the sturdy lad, weak and dizzy, bur.

still firm. Then followed a day of terrible visions. How the poor boy suffered, but not even the slightest groan escaped from his lips. Then came the end of that terrible fourth, day that Kagle-Eye would never for- I get. He was carried to his mother wigwam, wafhfd, and men given a great feast of corn-meal, corn-brend and sweet water.

How good it all tasted! And now Eagle-Eye was a brave. His mother, with tears in her eyes, placed before him a bow and arrow, a beautiful kilt made of wampum and a pair of beaded mocassins. But the best was yet to come, for Eagle-Eye was to accompany his father on a bear hunt, the following day.

Every man that took part in managing the machinery or guiding the ship knew Just where to be and what to do, says Edward H. Chandler, In Something to Do. Somewhere a directing mind spoke the final word and everyone respected it without Question. A few 'small boys gathered on -J field to play ball. They talked Iouo ly on the way.

Everyone had iiv-structions to give to everyone else. They all wanted to decide everything. Even though they had leaders they did not feel satisfied to follow. Ho the game went on. An umpire was chosen, but was hardly allowed to settle matters.

Finally disputes arose. Loud talk grew louder. The game broke up in a turmoil of charges and counter-charges. Everyone seemed to think that the more vigorously he shouted about what hud happened, the more clearly he would prove that he was right. Yet they all came out to have a good time, and they thought they had it.

I have heard it said of a preacher that the less he had to say the louder he shouted. Some people underlino a great many words in their letters so as to make sure that there is emphasis enough. The letter shouts at you in many places. Do you think the big steamer would have got away more successfully If a dozen ottlcors had all been screaming themselves hoarse giving orders? Yet the orders were given. Don't you think that while noise may be useful as a danger signal, it is something we could much better get on without if we only tried.

Owing to the fact that many of the officers of the Thirteenth Coast Defense Command. X. O. x. were attending the Guard Convention at the Seventy-first Regiment Armory.

In connection with the Washington dispatch announcing that President Wilson is seriously considering the appointment of Edwin R. Stettlnius as Secretary of Munitions, Mr.

Stettlnius stated yesterday that he had no knowledge whatever of any such In-tentiou on the part of the'chlef Executive. He added that he did not believe there was any basla for tho so you are not as smart as you think, for very little of the world can be seen from your shelf, let me tell you." "It is better than running around, getting into trouble as you do, Miss Pussie," said the cIock, "and just for that I will not tell you something you would be glad to know, for I could tell vou how to keep out of trouble, but I'll Just let you find out for yourself now." "You do not need to tell me, Mr. Clock. I am much smarter than you are. I do not need a stupid old fellow like you who never gets out in the world to tell me, who sees everything and goes everywhere, anything, for I know it all." "We'll see who hears the most, you or replied the clock.

"I can tell you more about what is going on in this house than you know, even if you do run about. I hear a lot in this kitchen that everybody would like to know." "Well, I'll leave you to fix it up with cook In the morning about the cream, said Pussie. "Of course, she will know you did not do it because you never leave the shelf." Off went Puss to the cellar, where she knew there was a place she could crawl out of doors, and the next morning she came In the door; hearing cook's angry words, she ran out again, but not before the clock ticked out: "Thief; thief!" "That clock is an old tell-tale, as well as a disagreeable old thing," said Pussie, running out into the yard. About dinner time Pussie came slyly in the kitchen and the cook called out: "Here she is!" In came the master with a stick and showing Pussie some feathers, he gave her a smart cut with a stick across the back. "I'll teach you to eat my chickens," he said, giving her another tinkling with the stick.

"Give her one for me; she ate my cream last night, and then broke the bowl," said cook; "how she got in is! more than I know." "I'll give her one more chance," said I the master, "and the next time she touches one of my chickens out she goes for good." Pussie ran under the stove and curled herself up, but the clock ticked loudly, and Puss knew it was ail meant for her to hear. "You're a thief! I knew it! I knew it!" ticked the clock, and Puss stood it as long as she could and then ran out. That night when everything was still the clock struck 12. Puss had crawled in through the place in the cellar and was waiting for the clock to speak when the midnight hour should strike. "What are they going to do with me if I catch another chicken?" asked Pussie.

"They said something about a box and a sponge, and, putting you in the box," said the clock. "Master said it would not hurt you, you would only go to sleep, and they said they would burv the box in the yard." "Well, they won't have to because I am never going to touch a chicken again or steal the cook's cream either. I have turned over a new. leaf" said Three more games of the semifinals of the girls basketball tournaments were held on Tuesday afternoon.

Fox In Trouble." What Soldier-Girls Learned at the National Service School "Most of the classes were taught by nurses, doctors and trained workers from the Red Cross Society. One of the compulsory courses was the making of surgical dressings. The delicate gauze must be folded very carefully, and while making bandages for some soldier on a distant battlefield we were learning valuable lessons in accuracy. Knitting and sewing for the soldiers were also taught; and in the dietetics tent a white-gowned nurse demonstrated the making of a beef-tea and oatmeal gruel, with the help of an oil-stove and a tiny refrigerator. "The hardest courses were those in first aid and home care of the sick.

The enthusiastic members of the former class were always on the lookout for broken bones to bandage; while the amateur nurses prided themselves on the beautiful beds they made and their ability to bathe and dress a baby (in this case a celluloid doll).
