One covered the proprietor with a revolver while the other rifled the till. 'A confederate then drove up in a big sedan and the robbers, rushing out, leaped into the car which sped away.

The self-sufficient know no doubt; They know just what they are about. ~--Cocky the Road Runner. Cocky is nothing if not self. - ficient. You know that means to have supreme confidence in your own ability and to be independent of other people. Cocky the Road Runner is that way, He lives in a land where living is anything but easy. It is a land of little water, a land without mercy for the weak, where even the plants have to pro- tect themselves with thofns lest they be destroyed. Yet there Cocky makés his home and is so well able to take care of himself that he is known as Cock 0' the Desert and Chaparral Cock as well as Road Runner. Chapparral is the name given to the tangled masses of thorny shrubs and plants grow- ing there. Cocky is naturally shy, vet at times he can be quite bold, as when he came out into the road to race with the horse Farmer Brown's Bdy was riding. He did that simfly because he dearly lov- es a race and because he 'is self- sufficient. There wasn't a single doubt in that creasted head of his that he could beat that horse and slip aside and vanish when he pleased. And he had done just this,, as you know. Perhaps, too he had wanted to show off a bit before Mrs. Cocky, who was watch- ing him from the shelter of 'a patch of chaparral. He had joined her when he had disappeared from the sight of Farmer Brown's Boy. "That was a silly thing to do," said Mrs, Cocky severly. "Not at all, my dear. Not at all," replied Cocky, preening his feathers. "I've been needing a lit- tle exercise and I was taking no risks. Did you see how easily I kept ahead? I feel better now. There is nothing like a good run for exercise. I would like a race like that every day. They could- n't-catch me if they tried all day." "It was a goed race and it was exciting," confessed Mrs. Cocky. "You certainly are a good run- ner," she added. That tickled Cocky's vanity, for he is very proud of his ability to run. He shook his feathers inte | place, raised his long tail until it ENGAGEMENT Mr. and Mrs, A. Pratt, 40 Hill- croft Street announce the engage- ment of their daughter, Annie, to Mr. Raymond W. Yeo, son of Mr. and Mrs. T. Yeo, Westmoreland Avenue, the wedding will take place the latter part of June. "He is a consin of pointed almost straight up, raised the feathers of his crest so that he looked much as a small boy who has forgotten to brush his hair sometimes does, and strutted a little. 'Mrs. Cocky watched him admiringly. She thought him very handsome, but not for the world would she have told him so. To you or me he would hardly have been handsome; he would have been odd. put Mrs, Cocky thought him the handsomest bird in all the Greaf World. His crest was bluish black and rather glossy. Back of each eye was a spot bare af fea- thers, and this was orAnge and blue. His coat was a mixture of brown and gray with streaks of bronze and green that shone in the sun. On the under side for nearly half its length from the tip were big white spots, His feet were large for his size. His throat and under parts were whitish. If we couldn't have agreed with Mrs. Cocky that he was really hand- some, we would have had to agree that there was no other bird like him. Presently he lowered his crest 80 that his head was smooth) dropped his tail and was quite a different apearing bird. Xven then you would hardly have guessed what family he is a member of. the Cuckogs, even if he doesn't look it. "Well," said Mrs. Cocky, "now that you have had your exercises, suppose you help me do a little hunting. You know there are four hungry babies to be fed and they certainly do require a lot of food:"' "Right, my dear, quite right, replied Cocky promptly. "For that matter I could eat a Lizard or two myself. Exercise gives one an ap- petite." "The babies first," retorted Mrs, Cocky. "Certainly, my dear. The babies first. You didn't really think that I would forget that, did you?" re- plied Cocky, and at once started off to see what was to be found. (Copyright, 1931, by T. W. Bur- goss). The next story: tected Home." "That was a silly thing to said Mrs. Cocky severly "A Well Pro- do," "I met your flancee two months ago and she said there would be wedding bells if your new pook was a success." "It was a great success." "Well?" ! "She married my publisher." "A man should talk over a grievance with his wife," says a writer, But what if his wife is his grievance?

CE KING ST. LEAGUE HOLDS BANQUET Professor John Hoyle, of | Toronto, Is Speaker of the Evening One of the largest and most enjoyable banquets ever held gponsored by King St. Young Peo- ple, was held on Monday night as the culmination of the very successful Group Contest which has been in progress during the last winter. Each group had its own table, the group leaders, Harold Barker, May Winter, Madeline Tooley, and Arthur Wood, sifting at the head of their respective tables, After everyone had partaken of the dainty and satisfying supper, which was prepared by Ruth Cook and her committee, to whom a great deal of praise is due, the President, Bert Wood made a short speech in which he expresgs- ed his appreciation of the co-oper- ation which he had had during the past winter from the League and Executive. A peppy sing song was then conducted by Meredith Moffat with Mr. Treneer at the piano, FFormalities were next in order. The Chairman proposed the toast to the King following which Ma- deline Tooley made a very ap- propriate toast to the Church which was responded to by Rev, C. E. Cragg. The toast to the winning group was given by May Winter in a very pleasing manner, to which Harold Barker, the lead- er of the winning group, replied. The Warburton Twins, Kathleen and Doris, were then called upon to make a few remarks. They requested Mrs. Cragg to come for- ward and lend them her assist- ance. Upon doing so she was delightfully surprised with the presentation of a lovely copy of the New Hymnary, as a token of appreciation from the Young Peo- ple for her assistance to them during the Contest, in the capac- | ity of judge. Mrs. Cragg respond- | ed in her usual charming man- | ner. The Toast to Young Peo- ple's Work was made by Ed. Kief- haber and responded to by I'ro- fessor John Hoyle, Secretary of the Toronto Religious Education Council, who was the Speaker of the evening. Mr. Hoyle has an inexhaustible supply of wit and humour, and he kept his audience in gales of merriment... He chose as his subject "Constructive Dreams," and he stressed the point that nothing worth while was ever accomplished without there first being a dream. He in- spired his audience with the de- sire to Think, to Climb, and not to Falter. His allusions to Hel- en Keller, Louis Pasteur, and Madame Curle were told in a fas- cinating manner. Indeed a great deal of food for thought was given by the Professor, in his an- nual addre-~s, Miss Nellie M. Lewis, of the Ontario Religious Education Council, Toronto, then taught a Negro Spiritual, after which she directed the League in the play- ing of a great many new and en- joyable games, which completed the evening's entertainment. The verdict of many was: "The best banquet ever."
