donkey to the doctor for the donkey

with the two little rabbits. you know.
Well, when they reached the doctors
house he wasn't in, but his wife was.
So Uncle Lucky thought he'd tell her
what was the matter with the donkey,
for the donkey was feeling pretty mis-

automobile, bat just sat there braying
every once in a while in a mournful
way.

Lucky. and neither had Billy Bunny,
altho he looked all thru his knapsack
and in the cabaret of the Luckymo-
bile.
"Tll get you some said the doctors
wife, and presently she brought out
little round box just full of sugar pills.

she said, handing the box to Billy
Bunny, who ran back 10 the automobile
to give some to the poor donkey, who
was braying dreadfully just then.
Well. the little rabbit gave him one
at once and then he read over the di-
rections.

feels worse and then one every second

hereafter women will be given prefer

Il is the beginning of the policy to
which other nations at war have been

DES MONIES BIG CHANCE.

Des Moines and Iowa are to have the
dig training camp. Il is great mate
rial advantage to that city and less
directly to the state The city that
will rear itself at Camp Dodge will be
as large and with as many inhabitants
as TWO Of iowa's first class cities
Des Moines has another opportunity
quite as important as that Of selling
lumber and supplies TO the training
camps. The opportunity is to MAKE
good on the claims of the state to ex-
ceptional moral atmosphere and TO
Justify the high estimate put upon
Iowa by other states.
The training camp is not a crowd Of
men TO be exploited and cashed in, but
a great assembly of Iowa boys brought
together TO prepare themselves for the
mighty struggle between what Iowa
stands for and believes in and that
which autocracy strives 10 establish.
1t would be plain confession of incom-
potency we're Des Moines to permit the
various panderers 10 vice free hand
in, the camp. The men are in camp in
the protection of the city and the
state and the nation. Des Moines
should see TO il that the men are pro-
tected against the vicious who seek to
prey on army camps.
Moreover, Des Mo!nes can do it and
will be held accountable if she does
not do it. The laws Of the state lend
themselves to an honest purpose and
4 sustained effort in this direction.
Let Iowa and Iowa's capital city offer
an object lesson TO other camps.
The folks at home are expecting it.

you'd have thought the same thing II
you had bitten one of those little sugar
pills, for they were dreadfully bitter
inside!
Well, Uncle Lucky and Billy Bunny
took turns giving those pills to that OBJ
stinate braying donkey, Uncle Lucky
held the watch and Billy Bunny held
the donkey. You see it took almost
q minute to get pill down that OBJ
stinate donkey so that as soon as one
was down it was time to start with
another. and as Uncle Lucky said it
was dangerous not to follow directions
exactly when giving medicine, it was
just about ali the two little rabbits
could do to take care OF that obstinate
donkey.
20. let me go, humbly bray,
I'll never be sick again, / say.
Don't make me take another pill,
They're only sugared on the SILL
Inside they're bitter as can be,
You'll surely end in killing me-
let me go, I humbly bray,
I'll never be sick again, l say"
well, if you'll promise" said Uncle
Lucky, You may co." And would you
believe it, that donkey jumped out of
the automobile and whisked his tail
and started for home as fast as you
please, just as tho he had never been
sick. Wasn't that wonderful. And IL
/ can get that pill box from Billy
Bunny, I'll tell you the name of those
pills in the next story.

tyranny, for the cause Of the free peo-

governments which deny freedom to
the peoples.
We must continue steadfastly in the
war until we gain peace by victory:
for NO other peace justifies war. The
peace thus gained must be the peace OF
Justice and Of righteousness: for an
unjust and unrighteous peace is far
worse than just war.
