sat up very straight and looked this
way and looked that way. Johnny
Chuck stopped, too, and he sat up very
straight and looked this way and look
ed that way, but all he could see was
the messy green log across the Lone
Little Path.
What is it, Peter Rabbit" whis-
pered Johnny Chuck.
''You can't see 1t yet" whispered
Peter Rabbit, ''for first we have to
Jump over that messy green log. Now,
I'll jump first, and then you jump Just
the way I do, and then you'll see what
1t is I've found" said Peter Rabbit.
So Peter Rabbit jumped first, and
because his legs are long and meant
for jumping, he jumped way, way
over the messy green log. Then he
turned around and sat up to see john
ny Chuck jump over the messy green
log.
Johnny Chuck tried to jump very
high and very far, just as he had seen
Peter Rabbit jump, but Johnny
Chuck's legs are very short and not
meant for jumping. Besides, Johnny
Chuck was very, very fat. So though
he tried very hard indeed to jump Just
as Peter Rabbit had, he stubbed his
toes on the top of the messy green
log and over he tumbled head first
with a great big thump right on to
Reddy Fox, who was lying on the
other side Of the messy green log, fast
asleep.
Peter Rabbit laughed and laughed
until he had to hold his sides.
My, how frightened Johnny Chuck
! was when he saw what he had done!
Before he could get on his feet he had
rolled right over behind little bush,
| and there he lay very, very still.
Reddy Fox awoke with a grunt
when Johnny Chuck fell on him so
hard, and the first thing he saw was
Peter Rabbit laughing so that he had
TO hold his sides. Reddy Fox didn't
stop to look around. He thought that
Peter Rabbit had jumped on him. Up
| jumped ReS5y Fox and away went
Peter Rabb-e. Away went Reddy Fox
after Peter Rabbit Peter lodged be-
hind the trees and jumped over the
| bushes and ran this way and ran that
| way just as hard as ever he could, for
Peter Rabbit was very much afraid Of
Reddy Fox. And Reddy Fox followed
Peter Rabbit behind the trees and over
the bushes and this way and that way,
but he couldn't catch Peter Rabbit.
/ Pretty soon Peter RABBIT came to the
house of Jimmy Skunk. He knew that
Jimmy Skunk was over in the. pasture,
so he popped right in and then he was
safe, for the door Of Jimmy Skunk's
house was too small for Reddy Fox
to squeeze in. Reddy Fox sat down
and waited, but Peter Rabbit didn't
come out. By and by Reddy Fox gave
it up and trotted on home where old
Mother Fox was waiting for him.
All this time Johnny Chuck had sat
very still watching Reddy Fox try to
catch Peter Rabbit. And when he saw
Peter Rabbit pop into the house Of
Jimmy Skunk and Reddy Fox trot
away home, Johnny Chuck stood up
and brushed his little coat very clean
and then he trotted back up the Lone
Little Path through the wood till ne
was safe in his own snug little home

FOURTEEN MEMBERS OF THE
LOCAL TROOP SPEND PLEAS
ANT AFTERNOON ABOARD THE
BIG CRUISER.

Fourteen members of the local
troop of Boy Scouts visited the big
cruiser, North Carolina Sunday after
noon, spending a very pleasant after
noon aboard the big naval vessel.
They left the city on the 2:45 o'clock
car, and went direct to the anchorage
of the big ship, where they at once
went aboard. Most of the time aboard
ship the boys spent on the bridge,
where they were courteously received
by Chief Quartermaster Kehoe. Some
of the afternoon was busted in making
cursory inspection of the big guns.
Leaving the ship, the boys went
over to the radio station in the navy
yard, where they were given an in
sight into this mysterious naval ad-
junctl being allowed to witness the
sending and receiving of a number OF
messages.
The scouts are to meet Thursday af-
ternoon at o'clock at the Y. M. G. A.
building.

SAME SCHOONER FOUND
WRECK OF CHRISTINA

The schooner which the above
special names as having discovered
the derelict of the schooner John
Widen, was the same one whicl~
some months ago discovered and re
ported the derelict of the schooner
Donna Christina, and which, upon the
strength of said report the derelict,
then overturned and a menace to
navigation, was found and towed to
Tampa, where the wreck was righted
and the interior searched for the
bodies of the captain, crew or any
signs of the fate which befell them
when the schooner was wrecked.
Nothing was ever found, and their fate
remains mystery yet.
The John. Whilden, reference TO
which is made in the special, was a
Mobile smack, and was caught and
quickly wrecked in The first storm Of
the season, or the storm which play ed
havoc over Galveston's way. One man
from the Whilden, thrown into the
water, managed to get ashore by
clinging to a hatch, which he fortu-
nately found ahoat, and by this
means managed to reach shore. This
mans name. was Ross, well-known in
local fishing circles.

~ NE morning whengbig round Mr..
Sun was climbing up in the sky
and Old Mother sWest Wind
had sent all her Merry Little
Brcezes to play in the Green Meadows,
Johnny Chuck started out for walk.
First he sat up very straight and
looked and looked all around to see il
Reddy Fox was anywhere about, for
Reddy Fox leases Johnny Chuck.
But Reddy Fox was nowhere to be
seen, so Johnny Chuck trotted down
the Lone Little Path to the wood. The
sun was shining as brightly as ever
it could, and Johnny Chuck, who was
very, very fat, grew very, very warm.
BY and by he sat down on the end Of
log under big tree to rest. Thump!
Something hit Johnny Chuck right on
the top of his round little head. 1t
made Johnny Chuck jump.
Hello, Johnny Chuck" said a voice
which seemed to come right out Of the
sky. Johnny Chuck tipped his head
way, way back and looked up. He
was just in time to see Happy Jack
Squirrel drop nut. Down 1t came
and hit Johnny chuck right on the tip
of his funny black little nose.
"Ohi" said Johnny Chuck, and tum-
bled right on the log. But Johnny
Chuck was so round and SO fat and
so roly-poly that it didn't hurt him a
bit.
'Ha! Hal Hal" laughed Happy
Jack up in the tree.
"Ha! Hal Hal laughed Johnny
Chuck, picking himself up. Then they
both laughed together, it was such a
good joke.
What are you laughing at?' asked
voice so close to Johnny Chuck that
was so surprised. It was Peter Rabbit.
What are you doing in my wood?"
asked Peter 1sabbit.
I'm taking a walk" said Johnny
Chuck.
Good" said Peter Rabbit. iii come
along, too"
So Johnny Chuck and Peter RABBIT
set out along the Lone Little Path
through the wood. Peter Rabbit
hoped along with great big jumps,
for reter's legs are long and meant
for jumping. Johnny Chuck couldn't
keep up, though he tried very hard,
for Johnny's legs are short. Pretty
soon Peter Rabbit came back walking
very softly. He whispered In Johnny
| Chuck's ear.
I've found something said Peter
Rabbit.
What is it?'' asked Johnny Chuck.
| ''IlI show YOU" said Peter Rabbit,
''but you must be very, very still, and
not make the leastest little bit OF
noise"
/ Johnny Chuck promised to be very,
very still, for he wanted very much
to see what Peter Rabbit had found.
Peter Rabbit tiptoed down the Lone
Little Path through the wood, his
funny long ears pointing right up to
the sky. And behind him tiptoed
| Johnny Chuck, wondering and wonder
ing what it could be that Peter Rabbit

FIREWORKS GALORE
FOR COUNTY FAIR
BOARD OF DIRECTORS, AT VERY
BUSY SESSION YESTERDAY,
DECIDED TO MAKE USE OF
RED FIRE.

Red fire in all imagined shapes will
be used at the Escambia County Fair,
a resolution to this effect having
found immediate favor at the very
busy meeting of the board of directors
which took place yesterday in the
Office of the general manager. It is
possible that some fireworks will be
used on each of the six nights of the
week, and program embracing num-
erous pretty "set pieces" will be pro-
vided. This gives promise of being
as popular an attraction as any one
feature on the program.
The directors looked after a good
many matters, and the good atten-
dance showed that the approach of
the fair is awakening desired interest
in every phase of the promisingly at
tractive show.

Santa Claus dropped a candy parrot

head rolled clear to the corner Of the

thing. You don't mean to say would

Why, Mr.. Mouse. I am Santa Claus,
and as long as have lived, have
worn a red suit trimmed with white

"All the more reason, then, why you
should make change" said the
mouse, pulling the whiskers of a toy
cat just to see how it would seem.

for reading in the schools the dialect poems are
not as desirable as those in more classic prose.
However, after publishing these two today the

of this poet of the people than his more. pre-
