THE DANIELSVILLE MONITOR, DANIELSVILLE, GEORGIA. DADDY’S VH EVENING FAIRY Graham Bonner OOPvßKtrr or\(JTCRfi /riVU/*P£* UH/C/r IN THE WOODS The great trees of the woods were talking. It was dark and cool and still and only the moon shone through from time to time just to see that all was well and to hear a few words of whatjrfvns going on. The branches of the trees swayed a little for Mr. Wind was paying visits about, and as he hurried along he was saying a how-do-you-do to all his friends and they were answering him. “Before long the spring will be here. It is a little while off as yet, but be fore long it will come,’’ said one of the evergreen trees. “It will be beau tiful then. “Buds will appear and blossoms and soft delicate leaves and then love ly strong green leaves will be the re sult. “But I am glad we are of the great woods and of the evergreen family. “Ah yes, that is the best of all.” And then Mr. Moon peeped in and said: “May I tell you a story?” The deep woods were all aflutter with excitement. Every one of the big, magnificent trees, and the shorter, The Lovely Dark Green Trees. strong, splendid little green trees waved and swayed a little with the joy they were to have in a story told them by Mr. Moon. “Yes,” Mr. Moon continued, “and It Is a true story.” “Won’t you sit down, Mr. Moon?” they asked. “I’m too big, I thank you kindly, but I’ll just look through while I stay on my sky perch. “I speak as though I were a bird, don’t I? But I’m not. I fancy you all know that.” The great trees laughed in their low, soft voices, and a murmuring as of music was heard throughout the for est. It was the echo of the laughter In the great woods. “Last Christmas,” said Mr. Moon, “I was about in my usual way, look ing at this and looking at that, and I particularly noticed the city streets. “For some time around the Christ mas holidays the streets in so many places were lined with Christmas trees for sale. “They were everywhere. And they had been brought for miles so that the city could have some Christmas trees for decorations. “Everyone looked so happy and of course I could see how they would ad mire the lovely dark green trees.” The trees of the great woods bowed politely at the compliment. “But I found out what made the people even happier than looking at the trees. “That was being able to have a real whiff of the deep woods. “They took long, deep breaths of it and they smiled. "Yes, for just a little, little while the woods had gone to the cities and the people In the cities were happy with a great, great happiness. “Some had lived near the woods when they were young. Others had never known anything save the cities and pavements and the lights of many stores, and they loved this beautiful fragrance of the woods, which is the loveliest fragrance In the world.” Once again the trees of the deep woods bowed and Mr. Moon added: “I know, too. I know the world pretty well, you know.” That made the compliment even finer and the trees bowed and swayed again and then they sang a song: We rejoice that we Or our fam-i-ly Gave Joy this year And also cheer, When they went to the city; For they said. "It's a pity For town people to miss The fragrance of this Which we bring from afar." Ho we rejoice that we Or our fam-l-ly Gave joy this year And also cheer. “Ah yes, they gave great cheer and great Joy,” said Mr. Moon, “and they made the people so happy. And I knew you’d like to hear of their recep tion in the cities so I told yon this storj — w bich Is a true story as I said.” SIMPLE DUDS ARE MORE SERVICEABLE Modest Outfit Has More Dis> tinction Than Conspicu ous Model.

In brushing to clean, push the bristles into the nap and twist botb the cloth and the brush. This will bring the dust out of the nap and it cun easily be shaken from the velvet by beating from the wrong side. Do this over every spot of the garment or material to be cleaned. To freshen the appearance of velvet, sponge the wrong side with warm wa ter and then draw gently back and forth over a hot Iron. If there are deep wrinkles they may be removed by first holding the material over a pan of boiling hot water and brushing the nap with a very stiff brush. The steam that comes througn the nap of the velvet will raise It. After rubbing the wrong side over the hot iron bs careful not to disturb the nap on the right side until it is perfectly dry.
