New and so delightfully different, Laity If you always : a ut naught to say but just, Oh fudge! ~Mother West Wind, -- In a big family of children no two are ever just alike. No, sir, they never are. They vary in size in Jooks, in"character and in disposi ion, It was just so in Unc' Billy Possum's big family, You know, there were twelve little Possums, all the same age. Some were bigger than others. Some grew faster, Some were bold and some were timid, Some were naturally obedi- ent, Some were cautions and some were heedless and careless, The smallest of them was called Runty because he was so small, He was small to begin with and some- how he didn't grow as fast as his brothers and sisters, It wasn't be- cause he didn't get his share of food, for he did. Some of the oth- ers thought he got more than his share for they thought Mother Pos- sum favored him because he was so small, She didn't, It was simply because he was quick and smart that he got his full share and some- times a little more, When Unc' Billy saw him for the first time, he was inclined to be sorry for Runty: "Ah reckon Ah will 'have to keep an eyé on that Iie fellow an' see that he is fairly treated by his brothers and sisters," thought Unc' Billy, "Ah reckon he won't have much chance with all those bigger brothers and sisters, Po' i'l Possum! Ah'm afraid ne won't have much chance in the Great World," But it wasn't a great while before Une' Billy changed his mind, Runty was smart, There was no doubt about it, And being as quick' as he was smart there wasn't much that he missed, If his mother or {ne' Billy found something especial ly good to eat Runty was always on hand to get his share. He got there first, "Ah don't know, how he does it," said Unc' Billy to OF Mrs, Possum "No, suh, Ah don' know how he does it, He always seems to be at the right place at the right time Ah find something an' look around fo' the chillun an' that li'le pinch o' nothin' isn't anywhere in sight, but befo' any of the others can get there up he pops. That li'le rascal seems to know Ah done found something alias befo' Ah know it mah own self, ' Runty could have told him how it happened, but never did, While his brothers and sisters were run- ning this way. and that way so full of curiosity about everything they saw, Runty always kept an eye on Unc Billy and managed to be some- where near him. He had early dis- covered that Unc' Billy didn't have the real care of that big family and <0 had more time to hunt for food, Runty just took advantage of this, and while he was just as curious as his brothers and sisters, he did his own hunting about, near enough to Une' Billy to keep one eye on him. You see, he was smart. "Ah reckon," said Runty to him- self, "that the way to learn is to watch those who know. It is all right to find out things fo' mah own self, but it is quicker and safer to fearn from others what they-all have already found out, We-uns have a lot to jearn befo" we-uns go out in the Great World, and the best way is to learn it from those who already know it" Now, this was real wisdom on the part of that little Possum as you must admit, He watched his moth- er and he watched Unc' Billy and he did as they did without knowing just why they did certain things. That knowledge would come later, as he was to find out. So by imita- ting them he learned a great deal witthout really knowing that he was learning things it was most import- ant for voung Possums to know if they would group up. When one of them stopped to listen he always tonped to listen. When one of them poked a sharp nose under an old log he did the same thing, and thus learned that sometimes fat beetles or grubs were to be found in such places, Many other things ' learned in the same way, and what he learned he didn't forget, So while Runty was the smallest he was also the smartest of all these ttle Possums (Copyright, 1931, by T. W, Burgess) The next story: "Runty Has a Grea Fright" * [4d v . * | Canadian Girls in Training Council Presidents of all groups are re- minded that on Friday evening of this week, at a quarter to six sharp, they answer the call of the little red invitations which earlier in the week summoned them to the Christmas Council Meeting at Albert St. Church, Don't forget to bring your group representative, and the report from your group regarding their feeling towards a C.G.LT, rink this winter, We have several important matters of busi- ness to discuss, some new games to learn and---but that would be telling! Considering Days + "All the world's a stage," and we are merely players, mechanic. ally getting or missing cues. "Here comes ® cue, What should 1 say now? "And I say what hap- pens to he most convenlent at the moment, Mechanical responses, purely; and how thoughtless! You say to me in our ordinary chatter, "My times are bad, worse than during the war." I take up the cue, and I say "Too bad there weren't another," I say it because after all, it is so hard to think; and that reply seems so obvious, Once in a while, however, I am tacked down hard, and made to take my head in my hands and consider, It may have been an article, it may have been a book, it my have been a friend; but by some accident, I consider, Ar- mistice day produced such an ac- cident, "It 1s thirteen years since Ger- many accepted the Armistice terms, We have learned now that Germany was not any more res sponsible for the war than were | we, We have learned that the Great War need not have happen. ed, We have had time to count up that the war left us with 20,000,000 wounded soldiers, (twice the population of Can- ada) left us with 18,000,000 dead soldiers and 13,000,000 dead civillans; that the war cost us at the time, to say nothing of what It cost us now---$331,600,000, 000, A great loss it seems to me when I am in that considering mood; and I wonder what has come of it. Yes, they sald it was a war to end war, Germany was made to disarm on condition that the other nations would follow her to the scrap heap. But have we fulfilled our bargain? I'm afrald not, and what 1s worse, I am afraid we don't want to, Last year's bill for armaments--guns, powder, gas, warships, cost $4, 118,000,000. And there are those God give us considering days! Zontas Seraps of leather, of all shapes, Jzes and colours, underwent & aansformation at the last meet- mg of the Zonta's, Large purses were the: principal result; There will be one to match every winter coat in the group, Their smart ness uoght to he appreciated, too for, with working stiff punches and getting out with razor blades that missed the leather, some poor fingers were tired by the end of the evening. But now that they know the result as well as the price of artistic endeavour, they don't feel disappointed, The Mizpah's Christmas is only one month away! At the last meeting en~ thusiastic plans were made in preparation for this coming event, The girls conceived the idea of making thelr own this Christmas and many novel suggestions have been submitted, This new project occupled much of the girls' time this week, Akita Searchers The Akita Searchers of North- minster report having spent their meeting Friday evening working on thelr scrap books which, in time, they intend to send to Brit. Ish Columbia, They did not neglect to discuss the subject of C.G.I.T, skating this winter at the Arena, They also made sure that their proms Issory note was properly tilled out DODDS KIDNEY or hd yl pl! I aT } Rub well over throat and chest Who decry an outlay of $250, 000,000 a year on Britain's Uns employment Insurance! 4 And when I get this far, I say to myself, (not very proud Nam) "Did you think it's about time we had another war, because things couldn't be any worse? It could not have been on ome of your cousidering days." . BABIES THRIVE on Vitamin-Rich Cpe 9 AVA CENT ER for their president to present st Council this Friday.
