One of the important books of the

has to see it produced before an audi

the audience. He doesn't know why
it's good. He don't know why the
people like 1t. He's content to know
that they do"
Now managers do it differently.

the very name I want. Now I must
send word to all my friends that here-
after I am no longer Peter Rabbit,
but Peter Cottontail." .
Peter kicked up his heels In just
the funny way he always did when he
was pleased. Suddenly he remembered
that such q f1ne long high-sounding
name as Peter Colonial demanded
dignity. So he stopped kicking up his
heels and began to practice putting on
airs. But first he called to the Merry
Little Breezes and dithems about his
change of name and asked them to
tell all his friends that in the future
he would not answer to the name of
Peter Rabbit, but only to the name of
Peter Cottontail. He was very grave
and earnest and important as he ex-
planned to the Merry Little Breezes.
The Merry Little Breezes kept their
faces straight while he was talking,
but as soon as they had left him to
carry his message they burst out
laughing. It vas such a joke!
And they giggled as they delivered
this message to each Of the little for
est and meadow people:
Peter Rabbits changed his name
In the future without fail
You must call him. II you please,
Mr.. Peter Cottontail."

thoroughfare with gravel bitulithic,
a. Horn. well known contractor, APP
peared before the council last evening
to secure some idea as to the probable
cost. The city engineer was instruct
ed to furnish him with an estimate.
Inasmuch as west Alta street was
improved several years ago with ma

Supt. Lonergan of the Warren Con-

be necessary to spread an inch or inch
and a half of gravel over the top of
the macadam before putting on the
hot stuff.
Upon recommendation of the street
committee, the bid of the Warren
Construction Co. for the Improvement
of Raley street was accepted by the
council. The bid was $1.45 yard,
the same as all other bids put in by
this company on gravel bitulithic.

URUGUAY IN READINESS TO
IMPROVE FISHING INDUSTRY

MODNTIVIDEO, Uruguay.-Fol-
lowing the work in this country of
Nelson Wisner of New York, who
spent one year in Uruguay as director
of fisheries, the government Is ready
to begin systematic campaign for
raising the fishing industry to a posi-
ton of Importance,
The Uruguayan authorities were
much impressed with Mr.. Wisner's
methods while in charge of the work
So little had been do1e to make use
of the abounding ocean and river sup
ply that it meant arting in at the
very beginning.
When Mr.. Wisner returns here he
will, 1t is said, find everything ready
for operating along the lines laid dow
by him.
The ministry of industry, DR.. Edu-
ardo Acevedo, has been indefatigable
in facilitating the pioneer labors Of
the American fishery expert. DR.,
Acevedo has long known that there
was great opportunity for making
fishing pay but he lacked the neces-
sary cooperation of those who knew
the business in all its details
It Is understood that Mr.. Wisner
will bring back with him from New
York many outfits necessary for OPP
Grating at the fishing banks on a
comprehensive scale At certain sea-
sons mackerel is plentiful about 200
miles off the coast. and there is also
supposed to be an abundance of pill
chard. A vessel of the trawler type
is to be fitted out for work on the
banks

in the course of his speech moving
the adoption of the report, made the
following remarks:
The extra expenditure in handling
cargo for the year, independent of the
crews wages, overtime, upkeep ana
all repairs, amounted to 24.6 per cent
That was not in keeping with the in
creased wages. 1t was accounted for
by decreased efficiency. Instead of
better work for increased pay, they
were getting worse results. Men were
less amenable to discipline, more
clamorous for privileges, more unwil-
ling to give fair days work for good
remuneration. The increase in en-
