POOR BUNNY.

Dear Little Men and Little Women: |
want TO tell YOU about a fine pair of rao-
bits that I once owned. | kept them for
n long time shut up in little house and
yard. One day thought 7 would let them
out and run about as they pleased, for
they seemed very unhappy, shut up as they
we're. At first they were shy about COM
ing out. so / stood back little way and
watched. First the biggest one came out
and then the other followed. They played
and frsked and were happy.
Then I tried TO tame them, but it seemed
impossible. And after a long time of teach
ing they learned to eat out of my hand.
One day one of them got on the road and
was run over by an automobile that was
speeding by. J was standing by and saw
the accident and Immediately rushed 10
where bunny lay. but he was dead | felt
very sad about the loss Of this rabbit and
thought that ! would always feel so. Soon
after that his mate died, ] suppose be-
cause he was lonely ] buried them both
on a hill not far from the house.

Stirred up by Brigadier General McCoskry
Butt. Of the New York National Guard OF
dcers from this and other nearby states
have been busy writing to their Congress
mon letters of protest against that provi-
sion of the army bill prepared by Repre-
sentative Hay, of Virginia, chairman OF the
House Committee on Military Affairs, aool-
isning the division OF militia affairs OF the
war department and consolidating num-
her of departments and abolishing the OF
flee OF chief of coast artillery etc II Is
held by most military men that the pro-
visions in question are the most perniclous
ever introduced Tor the military service;

to he practically part of the army under

with the regular service. SO strong are the
