They soon discovered that the Saw-
Horse limped, for his new leg was a
trifle too long. So they were obliged
to halt while the Tin Woodman chopped
it down with his axe, after which the
wooden steed paced along more com
fortably. But the Saw-Horse was not
entirely satisfied, even yet.
"It was a shame that I broke my
other leg!" it growled.
"On Ihe contrary," airily remarked
the Woggle-Bug. who was walking
alongside, "you should consider the ac
cident most, fortunate. For a horse is
never of much use until he has been
broken."
"I beg your pardon," said Tip rather
provoked, for he felt a warm interest in
both the Saw-Horse and his man Jack;
"but permit me to say that your joke
is a poor one, and as old as it is poor."
"Still, it is a joke," declared the
Woggle-Bug, firmly, "and a joke derived
from a play upon words is considered
among educated people to be eminently
proper."
"What does that mean?" enquired
Pumpkinhead, stupidly.
"It means, my dear friend," explained
the Woggle-Bug, "that our language
contains many words having a double
meaning; and that to pronounce a joke
that allows both meanings of a certain
word, proves the joker a person of cul
ture and refinement, who has, moreover,
a thorough command of the language.
"I don't believe that," said Tip, plain
ly ; "anybody can make a pun."
"Not so," rejoiced the Woggle-Bug,
stiffly. "It requires education of a high
order. Are you educated, young sir?"
"Not especially." ndmitted Tip.
"Then you cannot judge the matter.
1 myself am thoroughly educated, and
Bay that puns display genius. For in
stance, were I to ride upon this Saw-
Horse, he would not only be an animal
■ —he would become an equipage, For he
would then be a horse-and-buggy."
At this the Scarecrow- gave a gasp
and the Tin Woodman stopped short
and looked reproachfully at the Woggle-
Bug. At the same time the Saw-Horse
loudly snorted his derision ; and even the
Pumpkinhead put up his hand to hide
the smile which, because it was carved
upon his face, he could not change to a
frown.
Hut the Woggle-Bug strutted along
as if he had made some brilliant remark,
and the Scarecrow was obliged to say:
"I have heard, my dear friend, that
a person can become over-educated ; and
although I have a high respect for
brains, no matter how they may be ar
ranged or classified, I begin to suspect
that yours are slightly tangled. In any
event. I must beg you to restrain your
superior education while in our society."
"We are not very particular," added
the Tin Woodman ; "and we are ex
ceedingly kind hearted. But if your
superior culture gets leaky again—"
He did not complete the sentence, but
he twirled his gleaming axe so care
lessly that the Woggle-Hug looked
frightened, and shrank away to a safe
distance.
The others marched on in silence, and
the Highly-Magnified one. after a period
of deep thought, said, in an humble
voice: ?
"1 will epdeavor to restrain myself."
"Thfit is all we can expect," returned
the Scarecrow, pleasantly; and good

SATURDAY EVENING,
| nature being thus happily restored to
the party, they proceeded upon their
| way.
When they again stopped to allow Tip
to rest—the boy being the only one that
seemed to tire—the Tin Woodman no
ticed many small, round holes in the
grassy meadow.
"This must be a village of the Field
Mice." he said to the Scarecrow. "I
wonder if my old friend, the Queen of
the Mice, is in this neighborhood."
"If she is. she may be of great ser
vice to us," answered the Scarecrow,
who was impressed by a sudden thought.
"See if you can call her, my dear Nick."
So the Tin Woodman blew a shrill
note upon a silver whistle that hung
around his neck, and presently a tiny
grey mouse popped from a near-by
hole and advanced fearlessly toward
them. For the Tin Woodman had once
saved her life, and the Queen of the
Field Mice knew he was to be trusted.
"Good day, your Majesty," said
Nick, politely addressing the mouse; "I
trust you are enjoying good health?"
"Thank you, I am quite well." answer
ed the Queen, demurely, as she sat up
and displayed the tiny golden crown
upon her head. "Can I do anything to
assist my old friends?"
"You can, indeed," replied the Scare
The Woggle-Bun and the Pumpkin Started to Run
crow, eagerly. "I,et me, I intreat you,
take a dozen of your subjects with me
to the Emerald City."
"Will they be injured in any way?"
asked the Queen, doubtfully.
"I think not," replied the Scarecrow.
"I will carry them hidden in the straw
which stuffs my body, and when I give
them the signal by unbuttoning my
jacket, they have only to rush out and
scamper home again as fast as they
can. By doing this they will assist me
to regain my throne, which the Army of
Revolt has taken from me."
"In that case." said the Queen, "I
will not refuse your request. Whenever
you are ready, I will call twelve of my
most intelligent subjects."
"I am ready now," returned the
Scarecrow. Then he lay flat upon the
ground and unbuttoning his jacket, dis
With Choir and Organist
Olivet Presbyterian church is without
a permanent director and the music
committee is busily engaged in trying
to rejuvenate its singing organization
prior to the coming of the Rev Samuel
A. Bower, the new pastor, who is to
occupy the pulpit on Raster Sunday. It
had been the Rev. Bower's intention to
preach his first sermon next Sunday,
but he found it inconvenient to get
away from Northminister church. Wash
ington, as soon as he had anticipated.
Mrs. Henry Lentz, one of the city's
splendid organists, lias been playing at
Fourth Reformed church, the position
becoming vacant liy the resignation of
Miss Bressier, who accepted the organ
at Augsburg Lutheran church. Mrs.
Lentz's work at Pine Street and Market
Square Presbyterian Churches during
the absence of the regular organists has
been uniformly acceptable.
A number of choir singers will be
heard in the hall of the Steiff ware
rooms next Tuesday evening, at which
time Mrs. James G. Sanders, contralto
soloist of Pine Street Presbyterian
church, will present in solos Mrs. Wil
liam H. Witherow, contralto and Mrs.
Howard Gensler, soloists of Derry
Street Brethren church, soprano, assist
ed by Miss Edna Landis, soprano and
Misses Mabel Bright and Clare Monn,
contraltos. Mrs. Lentz will be the ac
companist. The recital, an invitation
function, is to begin at 8.15 o'clock.
Mrs. Roy G. Cox. soprano, justified
all the good things mucisal people ex
pected of her at Messiah Lutheran
church on Thursday evening when she
appeared in recital in conjunction with
Frank A. McCarreli. organist of Pine
itreet Presbyterian church. Mrs. Cox
playing the mass of straw with which he
was stuffed.
The <Jueen uttered a little piping
call, and in an instant a dozen pretty
field mice had emerged from their holes
and stood before their ruler, awaiting
her orders.
What the Queen said to them none
of our travelers could understand, for it
was in the mouse language; but the
field mice obeyed without hesitation,
running one after the other to the
Scarecrow and hiding themselves in
the straw of his breast.
When all of the twelve mice had thus
concealed themselves. the Scarecrow
buttoned his jacket securely and then
arose and thanked the Queen for her
kindness.
"One thing more you might do to
serve us," suggested the Tin Woodman ;
"and that is to run ahpad and show us
the way to the Emerald City. For some
enemy is evidently trying to prevent us
from reaching it."
"I will do that gladly," returned the
Queen. "Are you ready?"
The Tin AVoodman looked at Tip.
"I'm rested," said the boy. "Let us
start."
Then they resumed their journey, the
little grey Queen of the Field Mice run
ning swiftly ahead and then pausing
until the travelers drew near, when
away she would dart again.
Without this unerring guide the
Scarecrow and his comrades might
never have gained the Emerald City;
for many were the obstacles thrown in
their way by the arts of old Mofnbi.
Vet not one of the obstacles really ex
isted—all were cleverly contrived de
ceptions. For when they came to the
banks of a rushing river that threatened
to bar their way the little Queen kept
steadily on, passing through the seem
ing flood in safety; and our travelers
followed her without encountering a
single drop of water.
Again, a high wall of granite towered
high above their heads and opposed
their advance. But the grey Field
Mouse walked straight through it, and

Walter Shaffer's Last
Appearance in This City
Walter Shaffer whose letters from
France, "Flying With Shaffer," were
widely read by Pennsylvania people,
will be at the Victoria theater next
week to lecture in connection with
the great war film, "Romance of the
Air," which was dramatized from
Bert Hall's famous story.
This will be Harrisburg's last op
portunity to hear Shaffer for many
months as he will shortly go on a
Chautauqua circuit for the summer
months. Shaffer has been lectur
ing throughout Central Pennsylva
nia towns, being greeted most en
thusiastically and has developed a
very Interesting account of his ex
periences in France, including the
shooting down of a German balloon
and battle plane and his own fall
and capture behiwd *he German
lines.
TLARRIBBT7RG TELEGRAPH
the others did the same, the wall melt
ing into mist as they passed it.
Afterward, when they had stopped it
for a moment to allow Tip to rest, they
saw forty roads branching off from
their feet in forty different directions;
and soon these forty roads began whirl
ing around like a mighty wheel, first In
one direction and then in the other, com
pletely bewildering their vision.
But the Queen called for them to
follow her and darted off In a straight
line; and when they had gone a few
paces the whirling pathways vanished
and were seen no more.
Mombl's last trick was most fearful
of all. She sent a sheet of crackling
flame rushing over the meadow to con
sume them ; and for the first time the
Scarecrow became afraid and turned
to fly.
"If that fire reaches me I will be
gone in no time!" said he, trembling
until his straw rattled. "It's the most
dangerous thing I ever encountered.
"I'm off, too!" cried the Saw-Horse,
turning and prancing with agitation;
"for my wood is so dry it would burn
like kindling."
"Is Are dangerous to pumpkins?"
asked Jack, fearfully.
"You'll be baked like a tart—and so
will I!" answered the Woggle-Bug. get
ting down on all fours so he could run
the faster.
But the Tin Woodman, having no fear
of fire, averted the stampede by a few
sensible words.
"Look at the Field Mouse!" he shout
ed. "The fire does not burn her in the
least. In fact, it is no fire at all, but
only a deception."
Indeed, to watch the little Queen
march calmly through the advancing
flames restored courage to every mem
ber of the party, and they followed her
without being even scorched.
"This is surely a most extraordinary
adventure," said the Woggle-Bug, who
was greatly amazed ; "for it upse.ts all
the Natural Laws that I heard Profes
sor Nowitall teach in the schoolhouse.
"Of course it does," said the Scare
crow. wisely. "All magic is unnatural,
and for that reason is to be feared and
avoided. But I see "before us the gates
of the Emerald City, so I imagine we
have now overcortie all the magical ob
stacles that seemed to oppose us."
Indeed, the walls of the city were
plainly visible, and this Queen of the
Field Mice, who had guided them so
faithfully, came near to bid them good
bye.
"We arc very grateful to your Ma
jesty for your kind assistance." said
the Tin Woodman, bowing before the
pretty creature.
"I am always pleased to be of service
to my friends." answered the Queen,
and in a flash she had darted away upon
her journey home.
Next Week—"The Prisoners of the
Queen," in which the travelers enter
the Emerald City, but are taken pris
oner by General Jinjur, who plans to
kill them all but Tip (whom she will re
turn to Old Mombl). But our heroes are
a pretty clever set. aren't they? And
it isn't likely that a girl-queen can keep
them long in capture, is it? Next week's
instalment will tell whether or not
they seixe the hrone, in spie of girl
army. It's a thrilling chapter!
