He knew that Reddy Fox would not. soon forget how he had been fooled. He knew that Reddy would do his very best to get toward the dear Old Briar-patch. Then he made himself as comfortable as possible and prepared for a long wait. He was prepared to be very', very patient. Reddy Fox knows all about the value of patience. There is no one who can be more patient than tecidy would uo his very best to get i he when he has something to gain ven. So for two or three days timid ' by it. little Mrs. Peter had no occasion to worry about Peter. But in some ways Peter's memory is ''I feel it in my bones," muttered Reddy Fox, 'that Peter Rabbit won't bo able to stay in the Old Briar-patch very short. It is apt to be that way to-night. He'll come straight up here with most of the people of the Green ' to the Old Orchard, und when he hops I'orest and the Green Meadows.

"Here comes my dinner now." very cunning and very wise, knew just how it would be with Peter. "That long-lcgged scamp will stick close to the dear Old Briar-patch for a few days," thought Reddy, "and then he will become curious and discontented. He will think that probably I have for gotten all about him and he will want to know what is going on in the Old Orchard and the Green Forest. Just as surely as he plants his hind feet in front of his fore feet when he runs he'll visit the Old Orchard." So, just as jolly, round, red Mr. Sun was going to bed behind the Purple Hills on tho third day after Reddy's visit to tho Old Briar-patch, Reddy stole up through the Old Orchard to thc far corner whero Johnny Chuck's houso is. Right there was a low place in the old stone wall. Reddy knew that that was where Peter was in the habit of jumping over the old stone wall. Just one good jump from that low place in the old wall Reddy lay down and made himself comfortable. He choso a place where he could peep be ' Black Shadows came creeping out, 1 creeping out, across the Green Mea? dows. They crept over the dear Old Briar-patch and nearer and nearer to the Old Orchard. Reddy Fox kept one eye to that little opening between the stones of the old wall and watched the Black Shadows creeping nearer and nearer. By and by he saw what looked like a very small lone shadow, but it wasn't creeping; it was bobbing alonir quite fast. Every other time it wouid stop for a minute, then bob alo?i" again, and it was headed straight toward where Reddy lay. Redd grinned. It was a grin that showed all his long-sharp teeth. "I thought so," muttered Reddv "Here comes my dinner now. Peter Rabbit has laughed at me for the la^ time. My, ! wi8ri he would hurrv faster! He can't get here too soor to suit me."

Last Year Resignations Rcported by 1,792 Supcriiitendents in 48 States; Bcttcr Pay in ?l,ler Zl!!!ils lhc Ca"se Would Advertise Wants Educators Have Been Pray ing Too Much, Pedago^ue Tells National Meeting Specinl DispaUh to The Tribun* CLEVELAND, Peb. 25..One hundred and forty thousand teachers have given up their profession in the last year. This, the gist of signod reports from 1,792 public school superintendents. in forty-eight states, created a stir when announced to-day at the convention of tho National Education Association here. Nine hundred and eighty-eight teach? ers in New York City alone have closed their desks and gone into more lucra tive fields of work, the roport shows. While teachers' salaries have in creased from 20 to 50 per cent since be? fore tho war, the dollar will buy less than half what it could then, it is pointed out. Wages Must Tempt Talent "Wages must be made sufficrent to hold competent young men and women and to attract the country's best tal? ent," declared Ilugh S. Magill, field sec retary of the National Educational As? sociation, in sounding a warning to the convention. That education itself is imperiled by the shortage in the teaching statTs was shown by figures, which revealed that 65,000 of the country's schoolrooms are filled by educators only temporarily certifled -that is, below the regular standards. A demand for increased taxes unless disintegration of the public school sys tem is to result was voiced by M. P. Shawkey, State Superintendent of Schools of West Virginia. Crged to Advertise Needs P. Casper Harvey, head of the de partment of English of the State Nor mal School, Hays, Kan., called on the convention to advertise the needs of education and teachers. "Teachers have been praying too much and advertising too little," de? clared Dr. Harvey. The Smith-Towner hill, providing for a secretary of education to have a seat in the President's Cabinet, and also for an appropriation of $100,000,000 annu ally for educational cxtension work under state management, was cham pioned vigorously by Dr. William Et tinger, Superintendent of Schools of Xew York City, who called on the dele gates to give their heartiest support. "It is a measure of vital importanco ro every member present," he declared, "and no teacher should rest until its passage is accomplished." The Stage Door Lew Morton, formerly connected with the Winter Garden, is conducting the rehoarsals for the revival of "Floro dora." During the last fifteen years Mr. Morton "has staged ten productions of "Florodora." Women school teachers will hear Rachel Crothcrs, actress, author and producer of "He and She" at the Little Theater, talk on "The Feminist Move? ment." to-morrow afternoon at the Hotel Astor. Boxes have been reserved for Gen? eral John J. Pershing and his party to attend the performance of 'Apple Blos soms" at the Globe Theater Saturday evening. The privato dress rehearsal of "The Xew Dictator" scheduled for this after? noon at the Globe Theater, to which j Charles Dillingham had invited the i members of his other comnanies now ? playing in New York, has been post I poned until the early part of next week because of the late arrival of scenery for the Central American scenes. In charge of the clergy of the Holy Family Church, the entire personnel of i the double east. of the Parish Players : presenting "The Passion Play," iti j Unio-n Hill, N.

It is said the governrnent cannot accept the offer, as the treasure must be returned to Bel? gium, under the terms of the Versailles treaty. Germany, however, must pay the Ho henzollern family for this work of art as a part of the settlement for the tak ing over of royal holdings, the news paper says. The work referred to in the fore going dispatch was begun in 1420 and completed in 1432 and has undergone many vicissitudes. -? Miss Hitchcock Married Become9 Bride of DouglasMacC.

Origina! Cast Repeats "Zaza'^a^ Metropolitan Leoncavallo Opera Gives Mis* Farrar an Opportunity to Startle With Daring The music of "Zaza," if.not as good as we believe Leoncavallo fondly thought it, is not as bad as has been represented. It is not fresh or origi n?l, nor even characteristic of its com? poser except in places whcre it is remi niscent of "Paglincci," and even in its best moments it is sadly lacking in distinction; but it challenges praise which must go to the creation of a man who knew his business, knew it thoroughly. And the first act, barring the profligacy of the principal charac? ter, which Miss Farrar displayes with daring effrontery but consummate art (if it be allowable to call it that) is a masterpiec" of construction. ? With it the merit of the drama vir tually stops, arul having little incentive to a lofty flight, the music also droops its pinions, though rising to a brief f.'ght of pnthos in the scene with the child in the third act whcre the old melody of Cherubini for a space leav ens the lump. On the whole the opeVa justities its existence better than the music of some of his other works which the composer produced on his ill-starred visit to the United States. It was repeated again at the Metro? politan Opera House last night with the original east of singers and won the sanie measure of approbation which was meted out to it at its first per? formance. White Art Sale Nets $10,020 First Night W. R. Hearst Pays 8720 for One Painting and ?520 for Another* The first group of paintings in the collection of the late Ralph H.

Cyrena Van Gordon waa a nanisome Laura and her line voice was displayed to good advantage, but Vir gilio I.azzari lacked sadly in the dig nity adhercnt to a Venetian noble. The omnipresent Giacomo Rimini again was present as Barnaba. There seems to be no losing him. Gino Marinuszi con? ducted with spirit. The scenery was provincial, and oh that ship in the second act! It looked as if it had just defied the prohibition amendment and had climbed up on shore to take a nap! '-j-?-. Miss Riegger Gives Kecital Soprano Heard in Ambitious Program at Aeolian Hall Miss Neira Riegger, soprano, pre sented a delightful program at her re cital in Aeolian Hall yesterday after? noon. She unfortanately was not equal to its demands. The rigidity of her voice was not becoming to the florid music of Orlandini, Bruni and Gluck. which began the program. and in tllree songs by Sinding which followed. "Doubting Heart," "Wounded Heart" and "Broken Heart," emotion was sim ulated rather than genuine. In the dramatic "N'eckan." by Sibelius, a sort of Scandinavian "Erl King," the singer was again found wanting. Miss Rieggcr's voice is not pleaaant in quality, and when she forces it her tones are sharp. This is particularly true of the extreine 'tpper notes. She vas generally amatcurish both as to echnic and interpretation. ER&C? VecAzci ce6 at FORTY-SIXTH 'jr.'' ^4, i .
