Daniel Ray took the lesson to heart. Mrs. Williams' audit of her grocery money showed she was $2 short. Then she happened to think about that lesson in thrift. Daniel Ray's baby bank yielded two $1 bills. "I promise!" cried Chatterer hastily. Sammy. "Perhaps I will and pethaps I won't tell Shadow where you are living. I'll think it oyer." Now Sammy knew perfectly well that Chatterer wouldn't sleep a wink that night for worrying. Already he had made up his mind not to tell Shadow, for, like oil the other little meadow and forest people, he hated Shadow. But, of course, Chatterei couldn't kr.ow that. He had so made up his mind, and a great fear that Sammy might tell clutched his heart. Chatterer thought very hard for, a minute, and then an idea came "If you'll promise not to tell Shad ow where I am you--you fire welcome to all the corn you want at Farmer Brown's corncrib," said Chatterer in a very meek voice. "Indeed ;' -replied. Sammy.' "How very generous of you, seeing that it doesn't belong to you, anyway, and I have just as much right to it as you have." "And--and--well. I'll help you get it," continued Chatterer, his sharp wits working their hardest to think of some way to get Sammy to make that promise. ^ "How?" asked Sammy suspicious- "Mr.-, "Why, when you can't get it between the cracks, I'll bring some out for you and hide it in the stone wall where you can find it," replied Chatterer. But in his heart he said that he would hide it so that Sammy would have to hunt a long time to find it. It seemed almost as if Sammy read that thought, for, cocking his head on one side, he said: "I'll promise not to tell Shadow if you'll promise to get me com whenever I want it and put it juit: where I tell you to." Chatterer didnU like that idea at all, but what could he dp? He thought it- over so long that Sammy Jay spread his wings as if he was going to start that very instant for the Green Forest. "I promise!" cried' Chatterer hastily. • And so these two scamps of the' Green Forest made up and planned how they would live all the rest of . the winter on Farmer Brown's corn.

When treated commercially the pulp is pressed twice, thus yielding first and second grades of oil. The remaining pulp is then mixed with hot , water and subjected to further pressure which brings out a substance thtt is made into technical oils, ki addition to value as a food sub* stance, olive oil is used in preserving sardines, and in manufacturing soaps of high grade. Ear Sensitive Believe it or not, the ear is so sen sitive that it can detect the changes of less than one part in a million, according to Dr. Harold K. Schilling, associate professor of physics at the Pennsylvania State college. The ordinary* air pressure against the ear is equal to the weight of a million mosquitoes per square centimeter (about one-sixth of a square inch). A change in pressure caused by adding only one-thousandth of a mosquito to the pile could be detected by the ear, Dr. Schilling raid. If only two or three molecules of air move against the ear, and displace the drum a distance of only one of tbe molecules, the ear would notice it, the physicist stated. Wheal Supplies Calories Wheat; in its various forms, 00^' tributes 25 per cent or more of the average daily caloric intake of persons living in the United States. Thiamine, or vitamin Bl, is one of the components which makes whole wheat most significant in the diet at the present time.
