own power. Erich Kocher of Berlin is
here seen performing the feat, followed by excited friends, He blew into
the box-like arrangement, causing to
revolve the two rotors which also
served as wings. On his feet was &,

BEDTIME STORY FOR CHILDREN
By THORNTON W. BURGESS
FARMER BROWN’S FRIENDS
S PETER: RABBIT sat admiring
Rosebreast the Grosbeak, another
bird appeared in the tree with Rosebreast.
“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. GrosIt Didn't Seem Possible That She
Could Be the Mate of Handsome
Rosebreast,
beak. She wore brown and gray principally, 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 Rosebreast. 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 Peter as queer,
“What is she doing that for?” he inquired.
“Kor 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?” cried Peter.
“I never heard of such a thing. I
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 tive on
buds and blossoms. If they depended
~-an those they would soon starve to
death, Use your head, Peter, use your
head. You know well enough that
buds and blossoms Jast 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
ask Farmer Brown's Boy who helps
him most in his potato patch, and he'll
tell you it’s the Grosbeaks. They certainly do love potato bugs, They eat
some fruit, but on the whole, they are
about as useful folk around the garden as anyone [ 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.

THE GREAT
INHERITANCE
By ANNE CAMPBELL
HOU hast promised me an inheritance 5
More treasured than silver and gold,
than the precious
Ejewels
My dazzled eyes behold.
Thou hast promised me,. Thou hast
promised me
A luxury untold.
In my Father’s house, Thou hast promised 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 starry 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!
