"What 'II jour father do if lie; finds out!" j

"(iee! I don't know ! not to play ball there

too close to the gieenhouse, and he knew Mr. Simpkins told us to stayaway lion) there."

"Yes, but. how will the window without know ?" George asked. "Well," Iiud replied, him to wail a certain

to pay for it.

"Huh!" said George. "I'll be: j you'll woik. You never did in your life." George himself carried paj pej.s and he lelt a little scornful j toward Pud, who got all his money from li i.s father. ' But. next day Bud started looking ! .'or work. He managed to get a job raking leaves on a lHdiby eUie ' and worked every night after school, until his hands were blistered. When that job was finished he used his bike to deliver suits for a pressing shop and eveiy night went to bed with an aching back. But he was determined that: his father shouldn't know about the broken -window. He had a hard time explaining) his absence. He told his father he j was "just playing." Bud had no; time for playing ball now, however.! He found that he didn't miss it much, either. He began to be! proud of the silver that he was! piling up. He decided to keep his! job. I At hist the day came when he! could make the payment, for the broken window. He tool; tnej money proudly in to the green-! house man. The man handed itj hack to him. "Your father paid fori that glass the day after if was'

j broken, sonny," he stud. "1 didn't i think you'd ever pay for if your-1 ! self, and I was pretty mad. so Ii j went to your lather. Oh, yes, I al-j ;most forgot. He said that if you! 'should ever happen to came inj with the money, Id give you ihis! I note." And he handed Bud a folded; j paper. I Bud opened it and read: "Dear j Son, if you gei this note it will I mean that you have earned by! I your own work the money to pay'

for the window. You can keep ! your money and here is an equal sum, to be used toward that magic ! lantern you have been talking 'about. I was afraid you were lazy,

The Guardian of the Flock "On the hills of Scotland, you will find u.s sheep dogs faithfully tending our flocks. We Scotch Collies find this our true environment and prefer it to a more highly civilized lite. We exhibit splendid g-Mieralship in keeping our flocks

together, and take pride in being ! of real service to our masters.

Often one dog will do work that

would otherwise necesitate two men. We are quick, strong, of medium size, and toward our sheep we guard and our masters we show loyalty and affection. "There are several kinds of col lies, the most popular being the
