Why the Rabbit Jumps and Hops But
 Cannot Walk
CBy Chief Tahan)

Boys. did you ever wonder why the rabbit hops and jumps and does not walk and run as other animals do?
 A long time ago the streams and lakes dried up and not drop of wa ter could the animals find.
 They soon made up their minds that they would have to dig a well before they could get a drink, and every body agreed to help-except the rab- bit
 Tt would make my nice, soft paws dirty" said he, "and 1 don't lik to dig any way
 But if you don't help us dig the we'll you cant have any water out of it to drink the others told him.
 "Oh, l don't have to dig" said the rabbit, "the dew on the grass is enough water for me-" and he wiggled his ears at them.
 The others went to work and dug their well and found plenty of water. Every morning all of the animals met at the well and they drank all they wanted. except the rabbit. They wouldn't let him drink because he hadn't helped dig.
 T believe that tricky rabbit steals our water at night, said the fox to the other animals. Then they all talkei about what they ought to do about it. After while the FOX and the wolf went to pine tree and got some gum and made a gum wolf Then they se- it up by the well to scare the thief away. That night the rabbit went to the we'll and saw the gum wolf.
 Who are you?" said the rabbit. The gum wolf didn't move. so the rabbit grew brave and said, "Get out of my way or I'll kick you" But the wolf never stirred. Then the rabbit went up and kicked him, and the gum held his foot, and it stuck fast.
 Let me go or I'll kick you with my other foot" said thc rabbit, and kicked him with his other hind foot. and it stuck fast.
 When the animals came to the well they found who the thief was that had been stealing the water

 Told of Fully

WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 7.-"Co- operation of all agencies contributing to human welfare is needed to prop- erly safeguard motherhood and in- fancy"
 In speaking of the maternity bill introduced into congress by Senator Sheppard, Miss Julia Lathrop head of the children's bureau explains why the federal board of maternal and in fant hygiene, which the bill would create, is to consist of the secretary or labor as chairman, chief of the children's bureau as executive off cer. the surgeon general of the U. s. commissioner of education.
 To Coordinate Agencies.
 For the full protection of materni- ty not merely hygienic teaching or doctors and nurses are needed. Wages Of the father enter into the problem with decent housing decent clothing and sufficient food following. The Dill seeks to coordinate all the exist Ing welfare agencies in every state. and the federal board is representa- tive of similar departments in the government. The secretary of labor is interested in securing fair wages and fair working conditions for the wage earner of the family. The sur geon general of the public health service is interested in securing san 1tary surroundings and healthful con- d1tlons everywhere. The commits sioner of education combats illiteracy. and ignorance. The children's bu reau is devoted to interests of chfl- dren under the law.
 First Appropriation.
 The bill provides for federal ap- propriation for the use of states ac- eepting the provisions of the act and undertakings public measures for the protection of mothers and children. The amount of appropriation is to be S2,O00.000 for the first year, the sum to be. increased gradually until it reaches $4,000.000 annually. It will be apportioned among the states in the proportion which their population bears to the total population of the United States, provided each sac apt United States, provided each state 'appropriates a like sum-

'Whoof!" said the bear, what shall we do with him '"
 Bite his head off" said the fox.
 ''Oh, that wouldn't hurt said the rabbit, that's been tried before.
 Well, we'll tear you all to pieces, then" they told him.
 I've been torn to pieces before, and that didn't hurt, either" said the rabbit. Then they told him they would turn him loose in the brier patch. He pleaded with them not to do that, but they did, and when he tried to walk and run he only hopped and jumped. For he had kicked the gum wolf so hard that it made his legs crooked.
 That's what you get for being lazy and stealing our water" the other ami mals told him. So he has been ever since.

 So spoke Miss Tiera Farrow, law yer, some three years ago, when she was appointed the first woman 'di- vorce proctor in the United States by a judge in the Jackson county circuit court. But Miss Farrow's philosophy of marriage received a jolt that caused gossip to run wild recently when she appeared before the tribu- nal that appointed her divorce proc tor" and appealed to Judge Bmney to grant her a decree of divorce.

 Her action was just in the reverse of her prediction. And even the judge was surprised. The courthouse clerks stampeded Judge Burney's court to hear the former divorce proctor-s plea tor really Miss Farrow was the last person they ever deamed of that would apply fo a divorce
