him now.”
Peter was talking about one A couple of nights bciore he had been over by the Snitnng Pool. and heard a voice irliicii he iccog- nized. It was oite ut the succi- est voices in the great singing chorus of the Smiling Pool. All the other singers were Hylas, tiny Frogs called Peepers, and all their voices were alike. But there was one lone singer whose mice was sweeter than all the others. and Peter had recognized it -as the voice of Old Mr. Toad. The singer was in the water. That much Peter was sure of. But though Peter has very good eyes for seeing in the darn. he could- n't find the oirtier of tltat voice. So now here he was back, hop- ing that Old Mr. Iliad would sing again in the daytiine.
"It is funny,” thought Peter, ”that any one as homely as Old Mr. Toad. and I don't iuiow of any one who is honiclicr, can have such a svieet voice. its funny that a Toad can sing any- way. There are many things fitti- ny about (lid Mr. Toad, He dries all his singtiig tn the water. I wonder why?”
Peter sat on the bank of the Smiling Pool, and looked it all over. As he had come hopping lipperty. lipperty, lip across the Green Meadows. the Smiling Pool singers had been singing their best. When he appeared on the bank that chorus stopped. There wasn't a single voice. Peter just simply sat still and waited. At last one lone voice began. Almost lat mice another joined in. Then another, and another, and another, tintil the great chorus was going again. It was their early morn- ing song. A little later they would stop singing until late in the afternoon, when they would start their nightly chorus.
Peter listened and at last he heard what he was listening for: the voice of Old Mr. Toad. It took Peter some time to make sure just where in the water Old

Miss Robin announced that a generous donation had been receiv- ed from the Home Craft Asso- ciation to further Institute handi- craft. The executive decided to have small looms urchased with the money and to can the looms to Island Institutes where the art of weaving has been taught by the Institute instructors. The loaning of the looms will enable the mem- bers to keep up on their weaving by making small woven articles. The Women's Institutes are very grateful to The Home Craft Asso- ciation for their generous gift.
