Before Chief Perky could tell any
more Of his plan, the sound of the
hunters hound, barking loudly, came
to their ears! 1t came from the direc-

more. they saw Jack the Rabbit COM

close upon his heels was the hound.
Mr.. Rabbit was leading the hound
away from his home and directly to-
ward the river.
Close to the waters edge Jack made
quick turn up the river. but the
hound went straight ahead and plunged
headlong into, the water. This was
just what Mr.. Rabbit wanted him to
do. Up the river he turned again and
made complete circle and was soon
back to his home and little ones. The
hound, when he came out Of the water,
was confused and knew not which way

rabbits protection, "the Great Spirit

ROADS THAT PAY.

New York was a pioneer In good
roads building and has made many
mistakes during the twenty one years
that have practically covered her good
operations. On the other hand she has
learned much. She has paid for her
mistakes and her education and says
1t is worth the money. In an analy-
sis Of the road operations in that state
a former deputy commissioner Of high
ways comes to the conclusion that
"Just 70 long as the public permits Its
great works to be matter of partisan
politics, Just so long It will have to
tolerate methods and results that
would be scorned by any reputable pri-
vate enterprise Whatever blame falls
is not upon Administrations, but upon
the public conscience back Of them

have already passed that age, and are
kept in service only thru excessive

for our investment. We can, and must,
get far better results from future ex-
