4 LMOST every Christmas the Tab
~ Bies bought their tree from Mr..
Rags, who kept the toy shop
He hired Toby Hicks to cut them for
him, and then laid them in big piles
outside of the store.
But this Christmas the Tabby boys
were big enough to go outside and get
their own tree. And. Of course. Ted
and Tom and Binkie each one wanted
to be the one to hunt it out and cut 1t
down.
Il will not decide which one shall get
the trees said Mrs. Tabby, laughinsly-
You boys must decide that among
yourselves. If 1 had any wish. I would
say that it would be best for you all
three to 60. One could choose the place,
one the tree and one could cut 1t
/ down"
But Tom shook his head. 'I know
where the trees grow. / know which IS
the best one. and I know Just how to
cut it down better than any one else"
Ted and Blinkie said nothing, but
they were thinking that they knew
just as well as Tom But, as matter
of fact. Teddy Tabby did not know
where the trees grew, and Bin6ie did
not know how to cut one down So Ted
and Binkie compared notes and decided
that they would go together, and leave
Tom out Of it.
In the meantime, Tommy was MAX
ing his own plans. He sat in the big
dining room and pretended to be inter-
ested in a book, but out Of the corner
of his eye he could see Ted and Binkie
laughing and talking together He
called his sister TOttie to him and
whispered in her ear: You go over by
the door. Ted and Binkie are berind
it. and find out what they are saying,
then come and tell me"
Tottie nodded her head, and crept
up near the door. Ted and Binkie did
not think Of looking for her, so they
talked on, safe in knowing that Tom
was seated some distance away read
ing. Soon they went away, but they
did not see Tottie creep out from the
other side of the door and run to Tom.
They are going alone tomorrow morn

 There are perhaps as many as GOO men who have received their notices but who have paid no attention to them. according to the records at the city hall, and it is the intention of the city authorities to hale into the police court each and every one o1 these men, to explain why they have treated the summons in contempt.

CHILDREN UNDER IA
 CANNOT LABOR LEGALLY

Little Rock, Aug. 25.-It seems diff ficult for the people to become thor oughly familiar with the requirements of the child labor law Not a day passes that tho commissioner is not asked to issue permits which are spe- officially prohibited by the law. Un- der no conditions is he permitted to issue permit for a child under IA, but scarcely day passes that he. is not requested to do so. And, often his refusal works a hardship on wor- thy citizens, and denies employment to a boy in vacation who would be much better off employed than idle.
 But the law says:
 "No child under the age of II shall be employed or permitted to work in any remunterative occupation in this state. except that during school vaca- tion children under IA years may be employed by their parents or guardi- ans in occupations owned or con- trolled by them."
 To issue such a permit would sub iect the commissioner to a fine of So to $10, and similar penalties are pre- scribed for anyone who employs such a child. :.

iEE STREET CARS 'iNDERED FOR USE F0F THE CHILDREN
Trolley Ride by Library As sociation Promises to Be
 Big Event.

Three street cars, two of the larS- est size owned by the Pine Bluff company, and one of the smaller ve- bicles, will leave the front of The Graphic office at 4:15 o'clock Satur- day afternoon, to begin the trolley ride to be given the children of the story hour by the ladies of the library association.
 It was at first arranged to have two cars, but because so many children early signified their intention of par ticipating in the affair. the third car was asked and promised aud the ladies of the committee are of the opinion now that all the children who cCuse can be accommodated
 Perhaps nothing yet planned by the library association has proved so in stantly popular, as the trolley ride, and it appears surety that every child who has attended the st@ry hour at the library will be mem Der of the party. The ride will last not more than an hour, and the cars will traverse every line in the city in that time.
 Each of the cars will carry ban ners, and each car will have a yell leader" to direct the cheering and the yells of the children of that car. The small car will lead the other cars, and in this car will be the High school orchestra, which will furnish the music for the occasion. Each of the children will carry a flag, and each child will have horn or other noise-making device. The youngsters may be depended upon to use the noise-makers, blow the horns, and follow the lead of the head "yells- man.
 During the ride, the children will enjoy ice cream served in cones, this being the only refreshment feature Of the affair There will be no stops. except such as are necessary for switching from one line to another, or other such purposes. After each car, is filled with the children, the women in charge of that car will see that the doors are closed, and no chll- dren will be allowed to board the cars after the start IS made.
 The regular employees of the Pine Bluff company will see to the opera llOu Ol tHS cdio, dllu WILL give iuSli Rid to the ladies of the committee in guarding the safety of the children Each car will have one or more ladies of the committee in charge and in addition the yell leader will be a boy of near-mature years. who will also be able to help handle the crowd Thus the members of the commit ee feel that there is absolutly nc chance for any untold incident to mar the pleasures of the day.
