the right man for lieutenant governor.
French has travelled in the legislature with
the l tickle you and you tickle me class,
who have wished upon the taxpayers of
this state more vicious legislation than

of. With Lamping as governor and French
as lieutenant governor, Harding Of Geor-

thousand times more acceptable.

Willingness to work is largely based

was still fast in the bridge trap. The
Giant of the Woods lashed out with his
feet and caught Fierce Fangs in the ear
with a mighty kick. Over went Fierce
Fangs and under the water again.
Peggy ran to the switchboard in the
castle and pulled the switch that opened
the bridge trap. The Giant of the
Woods was thus set free just as Fierce
dropped right on top of Fierce Fangs
and then there was the liveliest kind of
a ducking, gurgling mix up, for the
Giant of the Woods was boiling mad
over being held in that trap.
Fierce Fangs broke away and
fioundered toward shore, only to have
Balky Sam, Billy Goat and Johnny
