Sticks will break and sticks will bend.

Johnny Chuck was sure that that
night in the old stone wall WAS twice
as long as any other night in all
his life. He just knew 1t was. And
when at last daylight came he was
quite certain that he hadn't slept a
wink all night. OF course. this wasn't
SO. He had been uncomfortable and
he had had bad dreams, and he had
imagined lot Of things. but also he
had slept more than he had been
awake.
The worse part of 1t was that he
couldn't tell anybody what a misera-
BILE night he had spent because they
would be sure to ask why he had
left his nice, comfortable home down
in the far corner of the Old Orchard.
and he knew that ne wouio get no
sympathy whatever.
There is one thing sure. and that
is that I won't spend another such
night" declared Johnny Chuck. as ne
ate a hearty breakfast and prepared
to look for a place for the new house

sighed as he thought of all the vast

at his claws and it seemed to him
that they were worn down SO much
that digging would be a great deal
harder than 1t had been the day De-
fore, and il was hard enough then,

he scowled that way and then began
to dig.
This time he did have better luck.
There were no great stones in the
way. He had chosen a corner of the
old stone wall where two sides OF
the Old Orchard meet. and in doing
this he thought himself very clever.

Artful Policy Is Revealed.

Three years of war have shown
clearly the artful and brutal policy
of Bulgaria, as well as her ardent
militarism, the purpose of which is to
accomplish destruction and gain ul-
innate dominion by violence. 1t is to
be hoped that by this time the people
of the powers know how to appreciate
at it's true value the pretended re-
pentance of Bulgaria"
He lays stress on the necessity for
the smaller Balkan allies seeing this
question clarified.
II believe" he continues, that
interpret the ardent wish of the Greek
people, that it be no longer permitted
to catch a glimpse of the unhappy
possibility of an insane bargaining to
assure the predominance of a preda-
tory race which already has under its
talons Greek, Rumanians and Serbian
populations. One must not forget that
the Greek army. receiving reinforce
ments daily. is fighting on the Mace
donian front to revenge the innumer-
able victims of Bulgarian atrocities
and the destruction of Greek commu-
mites in Bulgaria"

Chicago Wants Draft
Registration Delayed
Until After Primaries

CHICAGO, Aug. 31.-County Judge
Scully and draft board officials to-day
were considering the advisability of
appealing to Governor Lowden to urge
President Wilson to fix a different date
for the registration in Illinois under
the new army draft law, now set for
September 12. A statewide primary
will be held in Illinois September II
and arrangements have been made to
have election officials in numerous dis
tricts enroll the names of registrants
for the local draft boards.
In Chicago, where the primary bal
lots are unusually large and heavy
vote is expected, it is believed judges
and clerks of elections will not finish
the work of counting the vote until
after o'clock on the morning of Sep
tember 12. 1t is pointed out that this
would seriously interfere with, if not
render impracticable, the present plan
of having the election officials enroll
the names of army registrants.
