ONE day, as Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuz-
" ". and Uncle wiggiIy Longears
were sitting out under the grapevine
back Of the hollow stump bungalow,
around the path came 5Ir- and Mrs
StubtaiL the gentleman bear. and his
wife.
I'VE came to pay you a call" said
Mrs. stubtaiI. as she famed herself
with a grapevine leaf. for the day was
very hot
yes" went on sIr. stubtan I'VE
didn't know you were out here, Uncle
Wiggily. and we knocked and knocked
on he front door. I guess you didn't
Indeed. we didn't" said Uncle wig
I'VE we're just going away" said
Mrs. Stubtail. when Hir1m said per-
haps we'd better look out back here.
I'm glad you did" spoke Nurse
Jane Dear me- You knocked and
we didn't hear YOU Wiggily," she
went on TO the rabbit gentleman, I
told you we had better get a bell put
on our front door. knocking Is so
old fashioned II there had been a
bell, now, we could have heard 1fr.
and Mrs. Stubtails even out here in
the yard"
That's So" agreed Mr.. Longears.
Then. please Sc about having a
front door bell put on our bungalow,
Uncle Wiggily," begged the muskrat
lady. I'VE don't want our friends
knocking. and, II We don't happen to
hear them, have them go away again
NO, indeed" said the rabbit gentle
man I'll see about a door bell to-
morrow"
Uncle Wiggily and Nurse Jane quite
enjoyed the visit Of Alr. and Mrs Stub

Uncle Wiggily started out to find a

I'm sorry. but we're all out OF them
fat present" spoke the mousie girl
clerk Try the three and four cent
store"
Uncle wiggily did, but there were
no door bells there, no at any OF the
other stores in animal land For you
see not very many animals need door
bells on their homes in the woods ana
fields
The birds can whistle and sing to
one another when they go calling. The
frogs can croak. the dogs can bark,
and the pussy cats new. while the
rooster gentleman can crow every
time he calls. But Nurse Jane thought
il would be nice and stylish 10 have
a door bell on Uncle Wiggily's hollow
stump bungalow. and the rabbit gen
tlemau was doing his best TO please
his muskrat lady housekeeper-
However much as Uncle Wiggily
looked, he could not find a door bell
He was thinking ne would have to go
back to the eleven and twelve cent
store and buy q dinner bell which
might do. when, all Of a sudden, as

 ordering the line reconstructed and the
 company bringing all their legal ma
 chinerv into action to avoid the re-
 construction.
 Suddenly, in the midst of the diffi-
 culty, the company had change of
 heart, and announced that they were
 willing to replace the line in com
 pliance with the order of the commits
 sion, and to have it in service in time
 for the fair.
 Then, few days ago, the work now under way of reinstalling the line was
 inspected by the commissions engineer,
 Ben Ferguson. and found not to com Iply with the electrical construction rules laid down some years ago, and the commission. promptly called on them to explain.
 Ferguson alleges that the require
 ments of the rules arc that the trolley wire should be IS feet inches above the track, and that 1t is not; and that there is insufficient clearance between the feeder wires and the wires carrying
 current for the P. c. & E., to make it safe for the linemen.to work The construction rules of the com mission are based on those of the American Institute of Electrical Engi- neers, commonly called Standard con- struction."
