posed raid on their pockets through an
increased fare"

GAS the law officer of the city, I
wish to commend you for the fight YOU
have made in the interests of the peo-
pie. Continue to protect the peoples
interest against any proposed raid on
their pockets through an increased fare.
You may be fortunate enough to have
these matters come before tribunals
where public officials still retain the
old fashioned idea that the people have
some rights.

officials by demanding law for the
recalling of faithless public servants.

Old Man Coyote Investigates
By Thornton w. Burgess
1m-ues-ti-gote until yo1t k7oao
Exactly aohy a thing is 80.


Old Man Coyote doesn't like mys-
teries. He is one of those who believe
that there is nothing which cannot be
explained, so when thing puzzles
him he cannot be satisfied or content
until he has found out all about it,
And what he learns he never forgets.
This Is why he is one of the smartest
OF all the people Of the Green Forest
and the Green Meadows
When he left the dear Old Briar-
patch convinced that he had seen Peter
Rabbit there beyond all doubt he was
the most puzzled Coyote who ever
walked on four feet. Not only was
feeling that he had been N made De- to A ap.
pear very foolish. He had been out
witted and he felt sure the story of
it would soon be spread all over the
Green Meadows and all through the
Green Forest.
Presently the funny side Of it struck
him and he began to grin. Soon that
grin grew to chuckle. 1t was funny.
There was no denying that it was
FUNNY. lie had spent a whole night
watching that hole in which Peter Rab-
bit had disappeared, positive that
there was no other way for Peter to
get out, yet Peter did get out and had
scampered home to the dear Old Briar-
patch in safety. Old Man Coyote has
= sense of humor and he oan laugh at
himself when the joke is on him. Few
people can do that.
All that day he thought the matter
over and tried to think how Peter Rab-
bit could have fooled him SO. "That
was Jerry Muskrat's house all. right
Secause saw him there" thought Old
Man Coyote. "He must have entered
by way of the Laughing Brook.
knew he had a house in the bank and
l know that he always makes one or
more entrances to such a house under
water. Sometimes he has an entrance
on land. He has to this house and
Peter Rabbit found it. He went in
that way, but he didn't come out that
way, and there wasn't any other en-
trance on land, for made sure of that.
Peter couldn't dive and swim out
through one of the underwater en-
frances as Jerry does. l know that.
Peter can paddle around in the water
little, but he certainly can't dive
and swim under water. Then how did
he get out? 1t is too much for me.
Yes, sir, it is too much for me. But
am going to find out if / never do
another thing as long as | live. I'm
not going to give that long-legged
rascal chance to play the same trick
on me twice"
Just at dusk Old Man Coyote trotted
back to the Laughing Brook. He
merely glanced at the hole In which
Peter had escaped from him the night
