Ii was very funny TO see Uncle Por-
cupine unroll himself from the BAH ne
had rolled himself up into. Tommy
Fisher was watching Mr.. Porcupine,
and Jimmy Coon was watching both
Uncle Porcupine and Tommy Fisher.
This was hard to do for they were
not both in the same place. Uncle
Porcupine was unrolling very slowly.
and Tommy Fisher was crouched
ready to spring.
Teddy Postum was 50 excited that
he stopped swinging by his long tail
Teddy was enjoying this adventure
very much for he was high UP in the
tree and out of the way OF all harm.
Peter Rabbit wasn't looking at all, for
he was so scared That he had his eyes
shut--and you know just how 1t is
when you shut your eyes for a long
time. you just take little nap. SO
Peter was fast asleep, for what is the
use of shutting your eyes if you don't
go to sleep?
Tommy Fisher looked like a huge
black cat, just as a cat looks when
he is watching a robin. But nobody
would have called Uncle Porcupine a
bird. Far from it!
After little! Mr. Porcupine entirely
unrolled himself. And just as he did.
his soft neck became exposed, and at
that very minute Tommy Fisher
jumped. That bad, mean Tommy
Fisher, He thought he could pounce
on Mr. Porcupine's throat and suck
out his blood for supper.

JIMMY COON SAVES Mr.. PoRcuPNE.

That would have been the end of
the poor Mr.. Porcupine II 1t had not
been for the brave Jimmy Coon.
II you had been there to see. you
would have thought that Jimmy Coon
Jumped at the same minute Tommy
Fisher jumped. And Jimmy Coon Ia
rather heavy and he threw out his
little black hands and he hit Tommy
Fisher squarely in tho middle and ne
boxed his ears we'll and made him fail
in heap on the pine needles.
Wasn't that brave Of Jimmy Coon
Tommy Fisher didn't expect anything
of the kind and 1t was so unexpected
that he thought 1t must at least be
bear that had jumped for him.
Jimmy Coon hit him so hard that his
eyes were full of tears so he couldn't
see n wink, and he tust jumped up
and ran as fast as lightning for home
and never looked behind him.
Teddy Postum laughed ont loud. and
so did Uncle Porcupine. Jimmy Coon
was too sore from his big jump and
pounce on Tommy Fisher to langh
much, because when he hit Tommy
Fisher 1t hurt his shoulder.
But he did laugh when little Peter
Rabbit walked up and said What on
earsh Il. the natter" Nothing at all,
Peter Rabbit" laughed Jimmy Coon

hear the birds sing!"

Farm hands. It Is contended. will not
work after 6 p. m. or at p. m. at the
latest. Advancing Of the clock an
hour, therefore, it is declared, causes
the loss of an hours working time.
Mothers objections to the daylight
law are based upon confusion Of con-
ditions in the homes and, fundament-
ally. loss Of sleep by children. They
declare children are awakened an hour
earlier than usual and lose another
hours sleep at night, because Of their
refusal or inability to sleep during the
daylight Of the evening. These condi-
tons, 1t is said. cause loss Of weight,
fretfulness, nervous trouble and other
ailments of children-and the mothers,
too, from contact with the children.
workingmen are opposed to the law
by reason OF its requirement for early
rising. Wives OF workingmen are COM
PEELED often to rise before daylight and
prepare breakfast by artificial light.
Rural school authorities claim the
law is q hardship on pupils and teach
ers, who in many instances are COM
PEELED to walk many miles and must
arise before daylight in order to arrive
on time. ...
In vetoing the bill for the repeal OF
the measure, President Wilson had to
decide between the interests of the
farmers and the pressing need for in
creased production by industry. AS
he says, he very reluctantly decided
against the farmer and in favor Of the
latter.

GREENE couNTYs Lesson.

Greene county has learned Its les
son. In its recent hard-surfaced roads
election the voters rallied to the sup
port of federal aid for paved roads
and cast decisive vote in favor Of
hard surfacing Best OF ALL as in Mar
surfacing majority.
In voting for paved roads Greene
county declares that the graveled road
no longer fills the demands made upon
it. 1t was all right a quarter of a Gen.
fury ago, but with automobile and
truck traffic becoming heavy it will
not stand up. Hence the only remedy
paved roads. Greene is the third
caunty west Of Marshall on the Lin
coin highway, and the action Of its
voters is Of great interest to good
roads advocates, and especially those
the paving of the Lincoln highway
from river to river.
The Bee, published at Jefferson, the
county seat of Greene county, sums up
the situation in it's comment on the
election as follows:
The most significant fact about
Mondays road election in Greene
county is the decision which was rend-
cred that the graveled road Is no long
er an adequate road. 1t was the good
road of twenty-five years ago, but it
has been found wanting in these days
Of automobile and truck traffic.
For other counties and communi-
ties this verdict is Of special import
ance just at this time. 1t can not be
said that the people Of Greene county
do not know. They do know, for they
have had twenty five years. experience
with 300 miles Of graveled roads. The
graveled highway was beautiful road
in it's day, in spite Of its occasional
waves It was like an oasis in the
desert when one pulled into it from the
mud. There are still many miles OF
graveied roads IL Greene county which
are excellent roads-but they are in
places where the traffic is not great.
Wherever the teaming and the auto
| traffic and truck use has become
heavy, the graveled road has gone to
pieces under q strain which it was not
| calculated to bear.
1.-THE decision Of last Mondays cleo
ton represents the deliberate conclu-
sion of an electorate of sixteen thous-
and people who are as intelligent a.
any In Iowa, that they have weighed
the graveled road, and found 1t want
ing in qualities necessary to stand the
new demands made upon highways
| This decision was not registered by a
bare majority. but by an overwhelming
vote Of three to one; 1t was not carried
| by the town vote alone. but by ma.
inrity Of more than two to one Of the
rural vote.
! This fact is worthy the attention o

IHE WAY Is OPEN,

No more appropriate setting could
have been arranged than the historic
blue room OF the White House for the
staging OF the even more historic
gathering OF senate members and the
president TO discuss the peace treaty,
The meeting is unparalleled in history,
and as n result II would seem that the
way finally IL open for the senate to
report out of committee the treaty for
formal ratification.
The president was frank in his state
ments, and the senators equally frank
in their questions. 1t is what we would
call n "get-together' meeting. Mat
ters that may have appeared vague as
they relate to Interpretation of the
articles were elucidated by the presi-
dent, even tho he stated that to him
they appeared perfectly plain In the
present draft. To the president, how
ever, the questions naturally would be
easier of understanding, as he has
heard them all discussed, pro and con,
in the meetings of the council in Paris.
Il was not unnatural that senators OF
the United States, upon whom rest the
final vote of ratification. should want
10 know whether they have the same
Interpretation of the articles as did
those who drew them.
But whether members of the senate
are or are not obtuse, the fact remains
that the meeting gets the senate nearer
to action. With readjustment of bust
ness demanding immediate attention, 1t
is incumbent upon the senate 10 act up
on the treaty as soon as possible. Spec
ific examples of Industrial losses due to
delay in ratification as quoted by the
president. show the demand for action.
After weighing the situation following
this discussion the senate must ratify
or reject the treaty. There is no middle
ground. Either this treaty, already
signed by Germany, must be ratified
or a new one drawn and submitted.

"yE EOS" JcGp W GODS!

What is the world coming TO, any
way? In this day OF strikes ana
strikes and more strikes, We are in
formed from the southern metropolis
of Missouri called by northern people
Saint Looie, that newspaper editors, re-
porters and artists have formed a
union, ito bargain collectively with
their employers for oetter working
conditions and Increased wages to
meet the high cost OF living. Fortu-
nately for the reading public of st.
Louis, no strike is as yet threatened.
That newspaper editors, reporters
and cartoonists should Join forces 10
bring about wage demands is new 10
this country. Those back Of the move
ment hasten to explain that they Will
not be affiliated with any trades union
organization, but will act independ-
emily as a profession.
But 1t is not likely that the move
ment will gain any great impetus, at
least not right away. Newspaper
workers are employed for the most
part for their real worth. A true news
paper man. one who seeks the business
because he has a taste for it, is not
likely to become imbued with the spir-
il of striking because he thinks he Is
underpaid. The true newspaper man
tries to earn a little more every day
than he is paid for doing. He never
hestitates when the emergency arises to
work overtime, and ne never thinks OF
being paid for overtime. He never
loses by it either, for his employer
soon knows the stuff that's in him, and
is ready to push him forward as the
opportunity arises.
Imagine, il you can, fixing scale
of prices for newspaper editors, re-
porters, and cartoonists, were they all
organized into a national federation
How about John McCutcheon, If he be-
longed to the union? There would have
to be a pretty wide range in the scale
to permit McCutcheon to belong to the
same union as the young cartoonist on
a smaller city newspaper. who could
not expect to draw McCutcheon's pay.
Who could arrange a scale of prices
that would admit of membership in
union of Bert Lesion Taylor and some
small-town humorist who may be an
other B. L. T. some day. Yet, il they
were of the profession, and entitled to
membership, one mans work would be
as good as another, or nearly SO, ac-
cording to union principles, and the
scale should not vary much.
Newspaper workers are employed for
their worth, and as they develop are
paid what their employer believes them
to be worth. Newspapering as pro-
fession is one that calls for individu-
ality, brains, and Judgment, and not
particularly mechanical skill. For this
reason, if for no other, newspaper
workers will be slow to take up with
any movement that tends to destroy
that individuality.

WARNING TO CITY BOYS.


There is nothing surprising about the
war departments report that in the war
with Germany the best physical speci-
mems Of our army came from the
farming states. That was to be ex-
pected. The open life and more nat
uraI way of living on the farm would
be certain to make men more physic-
ally fit than those raised in the arti-
fetal life Of city.
One hundred thousand country boys
on the average furnished 1870 more
soldiers than the same number of city
boys. The proportion of reflections for
physical defects was far smaller in
Iowa. for instance, than in New York.
All of which shows that It is up to
the boy in the city 10 see that he gets
enough sleep and exercise to keep in
good physical condition. If he doesn't
in some way correct the artificial def
ciencies in his mode of living his ply
sique is likely to suffer.

THE PRESIDENTS VETO.


President Wilson's veto Of the Dill
repeating the daylight saving law, mas
caused little or no Stir in business or
home life in Davenport. It's repeal was
sought more by the farming communi-
ties than by the city residents.
While agitation for its repeal origl-
mated with the farmers, OF late their
prot ests have been reinforced py
labor unions. mothers clubs. rural
school authorities and many other In
terests. City opinion has become
strongly represented in the arguments
submitted to the president.
Loss Of time in farm labor Is the
principal objection raised to the law.
Farmers contend they can not ADJUST
the work Of the farm to the new time
schedule. They declare work can not
be begun as early in the morning as
under the normal time schedule and
must close an hour earlier. This Is pc
cause the dew on the ground In the
early morning prevents blowing ana
other farm labor under the advanced
time schedule.
