FLIP STICKS CLOSE TO HIS MASTER This much at least is very clear: You'll not forget if taught by fear ~--0ld Mother Nature. Farmer Brown's Boy had so much to see that was new and so strange to him that he spent much of his time on long walks, tiying to get acquainted with the little people in feathers and fur, whom he had never before seen, and usually Flip the Terrier was with him. Flip was quite as inter- ested as his master and raced this way and that way, poking his inquisitive little nose into bushes and under rocks and getting wild- ly excited "every time he found something of interest. Early one morning he and his master set out for a walk, and, as usual, Flip raced far ahead. Sud- denly turning, he came back even faster than he had gone anead. Plainly he was in a hurry and it was equally clear that he was a scared small Dog. Had he had anything but a stub of a tail it would have been between his legs. The instant he reached his was- tor he crept in close to the lat- ter's heels and Farmer Brown's Boy saw that he was trembling. "Now, what have you found to give you such a scare?" demand- ed Farmer Brown's Boy, looking all about, but seeing nothing to cause such a fright. "I haven't seen you as scared as this since you surprised Buster Bear, and Buster isn't anywhere about here." Of course, Flip couldn't tell him. He wagged his stump of a tail and looked very apologetic, hut refused to leave his master's heels. Farmer Brown's Boy tried to send him on ahead, but jt was uscless; Flip simply refused to go. It was clear that he was afraid, yet so far as Farmer Rrown's Boy could see there was rething to be afraid of. Farmer Brown's Boy continued on to the point where Flip had turned so suddenly and looked about everywhere without fin 1lug 80 much as a Rattlesnake, all the time Flip keeping close to his heels. Flip was afraid. There was no doubt. about that, but what of? It was a mystery. Once { more he tried to send Flip on ahead and once more Flip refused to go. He wagged his stump of 4 tail and tried his best to make his master understand that he wanted to obey him, but was afnald to. Farmer Brown's Boy couldn't understand ft at all. A Liazrd with a long trail dart- ed out and raced away. 1 coutan't be this that had frightened Flip, for he had seen many Liarzds and dearly loved to.chase them. Then Farmer Brown's Boy notic ed that Flip kept rolling his eyes up to the sky. Farmer Brown's Boy looked up. High in the blue, biue sky, a dark form was sailing on broad wings. It was 'ratons the golden Eagle. Farmer Brown's Boy knew him at once and for a few minutes watched him, ad- miring his wonderful mastery of the air, as he had often watchea and admired King Eagle of the white head back home. Then he looked down at Flip again with a puzzled frown. It was then that he noticed that Flip's eyes were following every movement of the great bird high overhead, and it gradually came to him that it was of Talons that Flip was afraid. At first he would- n't believe it because he conldn't. Why should Flip even notice Talons way up there in th» sky? "It must be something else," said he "I've mever known Flip to take the least notice of a bird in the air. I'll tie Lim to this stake and go off a little way an! hide and see what will happen." So he tied Flip to a stake and hid under a bush not far away Fcor Flip whimpered and whined aud did his best to break away. It was clear that he wus very rauch frightened.

A moment later he started to do this very thing. With a yell Farmer Brown's Boy sprang out and ran toward por Fup. Talons checked his swoop and shot off to one side, climbing rapidly, while Farmer Brown's Boy untied Flip and petted him, taking him up in his arms. That Talons was the cause of his fear there was no longer any doubt, but why he should have been afraid was as much of a mystery as ever. (Coypright, 1931, T.

PAVES THE WAY T0 DISARMAMENT League Assembly Has Very Difficult Task (By The Canadian Press) Geneva, Sept 4. -- The Twelfth Assembly of the League of Nations, beginning on Sept. 7, meets under the shadow of the world economic crisis and its political repercussions, and notably its effect on the first general Disarmament Conference. A communication from the League Secretariat said the economic crisis and disarmament are likely to dom- inate all the discussions at the As- sembly, whether private and infor- mal or public and official. In the matter of economics and finance, various expert committees have been at work in the past year on the basis of the last Assembly's resolutions and will submit a mass of material on the nature and causes of the economic depression and the possibilities of international action, vhich the Governments will have to take decisions. The skeleton draft for a Dis- armament Convention has already been before the Governments for some time and several countries have already replied to the request for full information on the state of their armaments to help in prepar- ing the general Conference, which is to begin Feb. 2 next year and is expected to last for several months. The Assembly will not be directly concerned with the technical pre- parations for disarmament, but more with preparing a favorable political atmosphere. It will have to consider two fur- ther steps in the organization of peace--namely, the amendment of the Covenant so as to rule out en- tirely the right of resort to war, and the dratt General Convention to strengthen the Means for pre- venting War. Both these matters came up for discussion at the last Assembly, but were found not ripe for decision and were therefore re- ferred back to the governments or to an expert committee to 'prepare an improved text in the light of the objections raised to the first draft. The amendment of the Covenant was undertaken on the initiative of the British Government, which pointed out that most of the Mem- bers of the League had now under taken under the/ Briand-hoiugs Pact never to resort to war and that it was therefore desirable to makg a corresponding change in the Covenant. The draft submitted to the last Assembly and the amend- ments proposed by the Assembly, Committee have since been circula« ted to Governments, and this draft with the discussions of the Assemn- bly and the comments of Govern ments upon the matter will form the basis for the Twelfth Assem« bly's deliberations, The General Convention to strengthen the Means of preventing War is inten= ded to pledge the signatories be« forehand to accept any measures laid down by the League Council for the preservation of peace while a dispute is being considered, Eight Survey Parties | Working on Highway Port Arthur, Ont.--Eight sur- vey parties are working on the route of the trans-Canada high- way through Thunder Bay dis- Dress Tr ousers trict, A.
