Yellow Wing the Flicker is an early riser. Yes, sir, he believes in getting up with the sun, as tho say- ing is, and even u little before, He knows all about how the early 'bird catches the worm, but that fsn't why he gets up so early. He gets up because he loves the hour when the great World is just awakening for the day, especially in springtime. "It 1s the sWeetest, most pure, freshest, loveliest part of the whole day," says he, and he means it. He ought to know, for all his life he has been in the habit of watching jolly, round, bright Mr. Sun begin his daily climb up in the blue, blue sky. So, having found a drum ° just within the Green Forest, a dead limb well seasoned which gave [orth a clear, ringing sound that carried far when he drummed on it, he went to bed early in a snug hollow in another tree. It was the bedroom he had used all the year before; one he had cut out himself. The next morning he was up and out with the first light, before jolly, round, bright Mr. Sun had even pepped over the edge of tha Great World net of the sleepers of the night before were ~still asleep. The first thing he thought of was his new drum, "Can't stop for breakfast," mut- téred Yellow Wing, 'Breakfast can wait. I've just got to let the Great World know how I feel this beauti- ful morning. I'll just let a few sleepy-heads know that it is time to get up." So hd flew straight to his new drum, settled himself comfortably and beat the first long roll, rat-a- tat-tat-tat. In the stillness of that hour it rang through the Green Forest and far across the Green Meadows. He waited a couple of minutes and then beat the long roll again, rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat, Hig head flew back and forth so fast that had you been there to see, you would have wondered how he could do it. Had he been any slower the effeot of his drumming would have been lost. You know, of course, that it is with his long stout bill that he drums. "That ought to waken some lazy folks," thought he as he waited and listened for a possible response. He didn't wait long. From a hollow in that same tree, but lower down, a head popped out, a red head, and {* was plain to see that its possesenr was in anything but a good tem- per. "Hi, you good for nothing nui- sance! What do you mean by wak- ing up your betters at this hour?" barked Chatterer the Red Sprirrel Yellow Wing chuckled. 'Come out and see Mr. Sun rise," replied. Chatterer came out, He came out with a rush and started up that tree. "Got away! Get av he harked. "This is my tree ear I won't have you making such a racket here. If you must drum do it here you won't disturb other people." The only answer was another long rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat, Alme-* once there was anothers rat-a-tat- tat-tat-tat-tat from over toward tue 01d Orchard. "Cousin Downy We pecker is up and out," chuckle¢ Yellow Wing, and again beat his | long roll. | By this time Chatterer had reach. | ed that dead limb on which Yellow | Wing was drumming, He had quite | lost his : gp . "I'll teach you that | other ef have some rights!" he SAVED IMPORTED DRESS "After a little wearing, a love- ly green voile--an imported dress --lost color so completely that it was not wearable. A friend who had admired it asked me why I wasn't wearing it any more. On hearing the reason she advised dyeing it and recommended Diam- ond Dyes. To make a long story short, it turned out beautifully. I have a lovely new dress that real- ly cost just 15c--the price of one package of Diamond Dyes.

Burgess hapien, and made a rush at Yellow Wing. Yellow Wing dodged around to the underside of the limb. "I'll drum where I please," he retorted. "You don't own the Green Forest." Chatterer fairly shrieked, he was in such a rage. 'I'll show you!" he kept repeating at he did "is best to catch Yellow Wing, who kept dodg- ing around the limb. After a bit Yellow Wing began to lose his tem- per. He had come to drum because the happiness within had to be ex- pressed, and this was his way of doing it. The next time Chatterer rushed he wished he hadn't. "Ouch!" he cried as Yellow Wing's long stout bill, his drumstick, so to speak, struck him, Then things changed. It was Chatterer who did the dodging with Yellow Wing ofter him. Back off the limb Chatterer was chased around 'he trunk of the tree. Finally, Chat- terer ran out to the tip of a branch, made a flying leap to the next tree, hich was a hemlock, and from its chelter began to scold as only he an, (Copyright, 1931, T. W.

SCHOOL LIBRARIANS MEET IN TORONTO (Special to The Times) Toronto, April 7--More than fifty school librarians gathered in the Lit- tle Theatre of Boys' and Girls' House St. George Street, yesterday after- noon to listen to an eloquent address given by Mr. A. E. O'Neill, B.A, Principal of the Oshawa Collegiatc and Vocational Institute. Mr. O Neill spoke on "A Principal's Idea f the School Library's Mission." He said that books and library ser- vice were an integral part of any sifesiive system of education. No one who had not learned to read dis- criminatingly and habitually could be considered educated, the speaker as- cried. All who had so learned had me a long way towards acquiring an education. The speaker predicted the time when ever y high school, however small, would have its large, well-lighted liprary in charge of a full time librarian in which the stu- dents would be taught how to read for business and pleasure. The pur- pose of the library was not to de- velop bookworms, but thoughful readers "who were concerned about the world's problems and who were seeking means to solve them. Miss Marion E. Wilder, vice-pres- ident of the Ontario School Librar- ian's Association gave a most helpful address on "Books for High School Libraries." Arthur Slyfield, Librarian of the Collegiate and Vocational Institute, Oshawa, presided. His presidential address dealt with "Things in Gen- eral." He illustrated his address with forty or fifty slides depicting the work being done in a number of school libraries. _ Elections for officers for the com- ing year resulted as follows: Presi- A REAL WEDNESDAY BARGAIN FLANNELETTE BLANKET $189 These are full double bed size, averaging 72 x 86 inches. in Pink or Blue borders--And you will like the quality.

Expenditure Expand Faster Than Income New York, March 40-~(U.P,)-= Government expenditures, state, local and national, have expanded twice as fast as the national in- come in the last 15 years, and now average $105.20 for each man, wo- man, and child in the United States. These facts were disclosed last night by the National Tudustrial Conference Board in its eighth an- nual report on the cost of govern- ment. The survey was based on com- plete statistics for the fiscal year 1928, showing total expenditures by all United States governmental agencies of $12,609,000,000. In 1913 the comparable figure was only ,$2,919,000,000. This increase of more than tri- ple, was held by the board to be a matter of 'serious concern." Greater vigilance by taxpayers against expenditures of their mon- ey was recommended.
