The CIeverness of Old Man
Coyote.

The meeting of Reddy Fox and Old
Farmer Browns henyard had been
wholly unexpected to both. Reddy had
been so eager to get inside that gate
that when he turned the corner at
the henyard he hadn't looked beyond
the gate. II he had looked beyond he
would have seen Old Man Coyote just
coming around the other corner AS
for Old Man Coyote he had been SO
surprised at sight of Reddy Fox that
he had growled before he had had
time to think. He was sorry the very
instant he did it.
THAT certainly was a stupid thing
to do" muttered Old Man Coyote to
himself as he watched Reddy Fox
run away in panic. II should have
kept out of sight and let him open
that gate and go inside first. There
may be traps in there for. all know.
always let some one else find 1t out
for you IL you cam. Old Man Coy
ctO grinned as he said this. $50
Reddy Fox sat down at safe
distance to watch what Old Man
Coyote would do. Inside Reddy was
and anger. He felt that he hated
Old Man Coyote more than he hated
anybody else he knew Of. He hated
him, and yet there wasn't thing
he could do about it. He didn't dare
Tight Old Man Coyote. All he could
do was to sit there at safe distance
and watch.
The gate Of the henyard was open
two or three inches. For long time
Old Man Coyote stood looking
through that little opening. Once
or twice he thrust his nose out and
shifted cautiously around the gate,
but he took the greatest care not to
touch 1t. Finally he turned and trot-
ted away toward the Green Forest.
Reddy sat right where he was, 80
surprised that he couldn't even think.
He waited long time TO see II
Old Man Coyote would return. But
Old Man Coyote didn't return. and at
that unlocked gate @"I do believe
that fellow didn't know enough to
push that gate OPEN, muttered
Reddy to himself. 81 always sup
posed Old Man Coyote was smart, but
il this is an example of his smart
ness I'll match my wits against his
any day"
All this time Old Man Coyote was
not so far away as Reddy thought.
He had gone only far enough to
pake sure that Reddy couldn't see
fiim, then creeping along in the
blackest Of Black Shadows. he had
returned to place whore he could
watch Reddy. Its queer that gate
should have been left unlocked" J"
thought Old Man Coyote. TT may
have been an accident, and then again
II may have been done purposely.
There may not be any danger inside.
then again there may. I'm not going
to push that gate open or step inside
when there is some one to do 1t for
me- .TlI just leave it for Reddy Fox
to do

father. NJ. F. Halloran. chief of the

MILL
Raced AT CAMDEN

CAMDEN, O., July 12-Built a cen
fury ago. flour mill just east of
Camden, known as the Robinson mill,
and later the Brubaker mill, is being
RACED.
The mill was erected in 1916 and
Immediately placed in operation. 1t
was operated by water power. After
years Of idleness the mill was pur
chased several years ago by Palmer
Morris, who placed it in operation
Not long after, Morris secured a fran
chise from the village Of Camden to
furnish it with electric current and he
equipped the old mill with the neces
sary machinery and operated the plan,
with water power for a time.
About two years ago, Morris solo
his franchise to an out-of-town com
pany, which furnishes the village with
electric current. This resulted in sale
of the machinery and razing of the
old buildings.
