Man’s First Flight Under His Own Power
BEDTIME STORY FOR CHILDREN
FARMER BROWN’S FRIENDS
AS PETER RABBIT sat admiring
Rosebreast the Grosbeak, another
bird appeared in the tree with Rose
breast.
“Who's that?” cried Peter.
“Mrs. Grosbeak, of course. Who else
would it be?”’ sputtered Jenny, rather
crossly.
“Never, never would I have guessed
it,” replied Peter. “She doesn’t look
the least bit like him except that she
is the same size and shape.”
This was quite true. There was no
beautiful rose color about Mrs, Gros

beak. She wore brown and gray prin
cipally, with little touches of buff here
and there, and with dark streaks on her
breast. Over each eye was a whitish
line. It didn’t seem possible that she
could be the mate of handsome Rose
breast. To Peter she looked more like
an overgrown member of the Sparrow
family., While Rosebreast sang, Mrs.
Grosbeak was very busy picking buds
and blossoms from the trees. This
struck Pefer as queer.
“What is she dolng that for?” he in
quired.
“For the same reason that you bite
off sweet clover blossoms and leaves,”
replied Jenny Wren tartly,
“Do you mean to say that they live
on buds and blossoms?” ecried Peter.
“T never heard of such a thing. 1
shouldn't think Farmer Brown would
like that.”
“Tut, tut, tut, tut! You can ask
more silly questions than anybody of
my acquaintance,” retorted Jenny
Wren, *“Of course, they don't live on
buds and blosscms. If they depended
on those they would soon starve to
death. Use your head, Peter, use your
head. You know well enongh that
buds and blossoms last only a very
short time. The Grosbeaks eat a few
just for the sake of variety, but they
live mostly on bugs and insects. You

him most in his potato patch, and he'll

tell you it's the Grosbeaks. They cer
tainly do love potato bugs. They eat
some fruit, but on the whole, they are
about as useful folk around the gar
den as anyone I know. Now run along,
Peter Rabbit, and don’'t bother me
any more,”
Peter didn’t run along right away.
He sat around watching Rosebreast
and Mrs. Grosbeak until he happened
to look up to see Farmer Brown’s Boy
just starting down through the Old
Orchard. Then Peter decided it was
time for him to leave.

PEMBROKE JOURNAL
By ANNE CAMPBELL
TIIOU hast promised me an in
heritance
More treasured than silver and gold,
More beautiful than the precious
jewels
My dazzled eyes behold.
Thou hast promised me, Thou hast
promised me
A luxury untold.
In my FFather's house, Thou hast prom
ised me,
There are mansions for my soul,
Where the curtains of worldly doubt
and fear
Thy healing, scarred hands roll.
Thou hast promised me, Thou hast
promised me
A bright and stagry goal!
Thou hast promised me an inheritance
When done with earthly strife,
A boon to make a journey fair
That with threatening clouds is rife.
Thou hast promised me, Thou hast
promised me
The gift of eternal life!
