which he based his charges of conspir

lows:
The federal government has sup
pressed the Alarm of Chicago and the
Revolt of New York. We are not going
TO say that it is an outrage. Why
should the government not commit out
RACES? Invasion of personal liberty,
suppression of free speech and free
press. silencing of non-conformists and
protestants. shooting down rebellious
workers-aal of this is the very es-
sence of government.
we don't complain. We understand
wilson's position. He must do his
masters bidding. This is the sane
policy But we want to warn the

II may not prove safe. Suppression of

Now two were red and one was gray;

Listen and you shall hear all about

the one in gray was Old Man Coyote,
the slyest. smartest rogues on all the
Green Meadows or in all the Green
Forest. All three had started out to
steal the same dinner. but the funny
part is they didn't intend to steal it
from the same person. And still funnier
is it that one of them didn't even know
where that dinner was or what kind
OF dinner it would be.
True to his resolve to know what
Granny and Reddy Fox were getting
to eat and where they were getting
it. Old Man Coyote hid where he could
see what was going on about Farmer
Browns. for it was there he felt sure
that Granny and Reddy were getting
food He had waited only little while
when along came Granny and Reddy

him. OF course not. He took care
that they should have no chance. But
anyway they were not thinking of
him Their thoughts We're all of that
dinner they intended to have and the
smart trick by which they would get it.
So with their thought all on that
dinner they slipped up behind the barn
and prepared to work the trick which
had been so successful before Old
Man Coyote crept after them. He saw
Reddy Fox lie down where he could
peep around the corner of the barn
to watch Bowser the Hound and to see
that no one else was about He saw
Granny leave Reddy there and hurry
away. Old Man Coyotes wits worked
fast.
Il can't be in two places at once"
thought he. 80 ] can't watch both
Granny and Reddy. AS I can't watch
but one. which one shall it be? Granny,
of course. Granny is the smarter Of
the two and whatever they are up to
she is at the bottom Of it. Granny is
the one to follow"

So like a gray shadow crafty Old
Man Coyote stole after Granny Fox
and saw her hide behind the corner
of the shed at the end of which was
the little house of Bowser the Hound.
He crept near as he dared. and then
lay fiat down behind little bunch
of dead grass close to the shed. For
Man Coyote was puzzled. Every once
in while Granny Fox would look
behind and all about to be sure that
no danger was near. but she didn't see

open on the other side of the shed. 1t
was Mrs. Brown carrying Bowser's
dinner out to him. OF course, Old

out of the house. and 1t made him
nervous. He didn't like being SO close
to Farmer Browns house in broad day
light. But he kept his eyes on Gran
ny Fox. and he saw her ears prick UP
in way that he knew meant that
those sounds were just what she had
been waiting for.
IF she isn't afraid. don't need to
be-" thought he craftily. After a few
minutes he heard a door close and
knew that whoever had come out had
gone back into the house. Almost at
once Bowser the Hound began to yelp
and whine. Swiftly Granny Fox. dis
Just as swiftly Old Man Coyote ran
forward and peeped around the corner
There was Bowser the Hound Juggling
at his chain. and just beyond his reach
was Reddy Fox grinning in the most
provoking manner. And there was
Granny Fox backing and dragging
after her Bowser's dinner. In fash
Old Man Coyote understood the plan
and he almost chuckled aloud at the
eleverness of it. Then he hastily
backed behind the shed and waited.
In a minute Granny Fox appeared
dragging Bowser's dinner after her.
She was SO intent on getting that
dinner that she almost backed into Old
Man Coyote without suspecting that
he was anywhere about.
That you, Granny. You needn't
bother about 1t any longer; I'll take
it now" growled Old Man Coyote in
Grannys ear.
Granny let go of that dinner as il
1t burned her tongue. and with a
frightened little yelp leaped to one
side. minute later Reddy came
racing around from behind the barn
eager for his share. What he saw was
Old Man Coyote boiling down that
twice stolen dinner while Granny Fox
fairly danced with rage.
