he threw out behind him was dark.
but In surprisingly short time he
was throwing yellow sand and had
quite disappeared. Every Few minutes
more sand would be pushed out. Once
in a while Johnny poked his head out
to get some fresh air. while he rested
for bit. then back he would 20. and
the yellow sand would begin to pour
out of that hole again. Just watching
such hard work actually made Jimmy

Johnny Chuck Plans His New
Home.

A Chuck, boy or even man
: Will work the best who has a plan.
The more Jimmy Skunk thought
about that splendid home Of Johnny
Chuck's up in the far corner of the
Old Orchard the more he wanted it
for his own. So it didn't take him
long to make up his mind to stay
around long enough for Johnny Chuck
to get his new home we'll started.
Jimmy didn't have anything in par
ticular to do anyway. and if he could
get such a fine home as that one in the
Old Orchard just by staying around
to see that Johnny Chuck was not dis
turbed he couldn't well refuse.
So Jimmy Skunk found a comfort
able spot and lay down to watch
Johnny Chuck work. He wondered
just where Johnny would start to dig
He didn't have to wait long to find
out. Along that fence on the edge of
what would be Farmer Browns corn
field later in the season were several
good sized rocks. Just between two of
these which lay very close together
Johnny Chuck began to dig. Jimmy
Skunk nodded with approval. He saw
right away that there was just room
enough for hole the size Johnny

That grass will hang over it and no

fenced to Pen for Two
Years.

noon. AT the conclusion Of the Greer
case (see elsewhere ON this page) a
motion was made before Judge Finley
to obtain the telease Of Foster Parsons
on bail, pending his trial in July.
Messrs. Stack, Phillips and Jones made
arguments, while the Solicitor spoke for
the State. 1t being evident that
the Judge would decline to grant the
request for bail, the defendants attor-
neys withdrew the motion so that it
would not preclude their entering
habeas corpus proceedings later.
Another matter handled this after
noon was the disposition Of c. c. Moore,
