my nerves stung into a retort.
Tom paid no slightest attention.

Anybody else?"

ceive me any longer. l want to

A MOMENTS RESPITE.
l almost rushed out of the
room. Even a moments respite
was welcome. l had no thought
now of trying to deceive. He
would keep his word, that l knew.
He would know in some way, I
might as well tell him and get
it over.
I returned with the bills. Call
mans for nearly two hundred
dollars. Madame Heloise' for a

Wiggily soon loosed the grasshop-
per's leg from where it was caught
in the prickiy briar bush, and then
the little creature sat down on a
stone to rest.
Il cannot thank you enough
Uncle Wiggily said the hopper
grass, as | sometimes call him
backward like for fun. You did
me Il great favor"
I'm glad | could" spoke the
bunny. This makes three kind
acts L had a chance to do, and
three is lucky you know"
ut was lucky for me you came
along" chirped the grasshopper.
Then the graSshopper flew
away, for he could fly as we'll as
hop, and Uncle Wiggily Travelled
on, wondering what would HAPPIER
next.
The bunny had not gone very
| far before he once more met JackS
Bow Wow. The puppy dog boy was
| flying his kite in field, and, JUS
as Uncle Wiggily reached the
place, the kite string broke, ant
the paper toy went sailing off il

gone" barked Jackie.
"IH try to get it," called Uncl'
Wiggily The bunny jumped up il
the air as high as he could, and
! tried to catch hold of the dangling
kite string, while Jackie held thu
other broken end in his paw. Blu
the runaway kite was too far of
| for the bunny to reach, and i
seemed that it would be lost for
ever. t
All of a sudden, however, along
came flying the grasshopper whom
Jrncfe Wiggily had saved from the
briars
"Give me the string you hold
Jackier chirped the hoppergrass
'I'll fly up with 1t, tie it to the
string on the kite and you can pull
! your toy down" So, taking the
doggie boys end of the string, up
up, up in the air with it flew the
grasshopper, and he tied it to the
string on the runaway kite. Their
Jackie could pull down his paper
toy
"Oh, thank you, hoppergrassr
| cried Uncle Wiggily.
Not at ALI" laughed the insect
| as he flew down in the grass. "You
did me a favor and / did jackie
| one. Now we are even"
So everything was all right, and
il the feather buster doesn't tickle
the legs of the table so it dances
with the china closet, III tell you
next about Uncle Wiggily and the
cricket.

we have. Wen never get it
dome"
What's the trouble?" asked
Uncle Wiggily, as he stopped to
look at the red ants.
"Oh, we are trying to dig q
we'll" was the answer. 1--WE need
well to hold water, but we are
so tiny, and can only dig a grain
of sand at a time, that it will
take us a year and a day to dig
we'll"
please let me make well for
you begged Uncle Wiggily. He
thrust the end of his red, white
and blue striped rheumatism
crutch down deep into the
ground. Thus he made hole.
Then he went to the brook, and,
in his tall, silk hat, he brought
some water and filled the hole.
There is your WE'LL" said the
bunny gentleman to the ants.
ooh, thank you!" they cried,
and Uncle Wiggily hoped on,
we'll pleased that he was able to
help the tiny creatures.
The bunny gentleman was won
dering what his next adventure
would be, when all of a sudden
he heard a voice he well knew
crying:
ooh, it's all tangled It's all
tangled, and I'll never be able
to fly it."
THAT'S Jackie Bow Bow in
trouble" thought Uncle Wiggily,
twinkling his pink nose. And,
60 ,f
berry bush, the bunny saw the
little doggy boy with a kite, the
string of which was all tangled
in the trees.
"Pll help you, Jackie" kindly
offered Uncle Wiggily, and soon,
with the bunny's aid, Jackie could
run out in the lots and fly his
kite, the string having been made
nice and straight.
"Well, I am lucky to have done
two kind acts today" thought
Uncle Wiggily as he hoped on.
81 wonder if 1 can do another"
The bunny rabbit gentleman
had not gone much farther over
the fields and through the woods
before, all Of sudden, he heard
a sad voice saying;
"Oh, my leg! My leg! It's
caught fast, and if 1 jump or fly
I'll pull it off! Oh, dearw
More trouble" thought Uncle
Wiggily. And the worst yet, 1
should say 1 wonder who this
is? l hope not the Fuzzy Fox
or Woozie Wolff"
He looked around the corner
of a lollypop bush and saw a
grasshopper gentleman caught by
one leg in a briar bush.
Hold still a moment, Mr..
Grasshopper," said Uncle Wig
gily, land l will set you free"
ooh, how kind of you"
chirped the grasshopper. II
thought l must stay here for
ever"

Wall. STREET


New York, May 26.-Stock trad
ing today was of an uncertain char
acteT, the undertone shifting from
moderate strength to irregularity
and back again. Further short
coverings was prompted by APP
preaching holidays and favorable
railroad earnings.
Other encouraging factors In
cluded an increase in the Chicago
Burlington & Quincy dividend with
resultant benefits to the Fill roads;
the probable successes of the new
French government loan and midi
cations that the administration had
Instituted measures to stabilize the
international financial situation.
Apart from several of the more
representative stocks, however. the
list showed little evidence of out
side support. After several cover
ing movements had run their
course, the market lapsed into lta
recent dullness.
Rails, oils, steels. equipments,
shippings and cOppers again en-
comprised much of the days oper-
atoms at extreme gains OF one to
three points. These, in several m
stances, were materially shaded at
the finish.
Chief elements of weakness
We're the rubber and tire issues, as
well as food specialties and several
unclassified stocks whose dividends
records were believed to be en-
dangered. Sales amounted to $780,
900 shares.
Further Withdrawals to meet red
eral demands and June interest
and dividend payments forced call
money from it's opening rate of Z
to TX per cent in the final hour.
Bank demand acceptanoes rose to
7 per cent but time rates and COM
mercial paper were unchanged. The
foreign exchange markets were
rather confusing. Rates on London
continued to react; there was an
other sharp break in Dutch remit
tances and French. Belgian anu
Spanish bills were firm to strong.
Liberty issues and some of the
foreign bonds were active and
strong in anticipation of the out
come of the new French flotation
but changes in the general list We're
irregular and mainly fractional.
Total sales, par value, $12,S75,OOO.

books can be bought for that

so much time and trouble. BY
buying one book month, the club
could let each member keep it for
five days, If the meetings are to
be held monthly.
In this way, the book which all
have read in the past month will
be discussed at each meeting. and
q new book decided upon--to buy

at the opening of each meeting The
members take turns expressing
their opinions about the book that
all have just read. When all have
done this, the book should be
placed upon table and the mem

this way, the various members will

A SPLENDID SERVICE

It's fine thing that the ministers
of Wauseon, six of them, are doing
for this town in their united efforts
in the present evangelistic campaign,
it's one of the finest demonstrations
of brotherliness, unity, cooperation
and good fellowship that has ever
been given in Wauseon.
Each of these six ministers are
exeinplifying the true and real
Chr stian Spirit in their attitude to-
ward one another and in thus bring
ing the congregations of their sew
eral churches together they are lead
ing the way to practical Christian
unity and advancing the high cause
for which these churches stand.
Their messages given night after
night will find a response in the
hearts and minds of all who hear
them regardless of whether that re-
sponse is expressed by all the in
dividuals who hear or not. They
are appealing to the very best there
is in every man and woman in the
community and their purpose is 10
bring forward that "best" and make
it predominant in the lives of the
men and women of this community.
They are presenting fundamental
and essential needs of every human
being and pointing the unfailing
source of supply for those needs.
They are presenting one church
composed of several denominations
and showing the reasons why every
person in the community should align
himself or herself with that church
and the cause of Christianity.
They are serving the community
and they deserve tho appreciation

OHIO farm ORGANI-
TONS ON TAXATION
GOVERNOR DAVIS
IN ACCORD

The following statement was pre-
sented to the General Assembly of
Ohio on February 9Th:
To the General Assembly of Ohio:
Since their beginnings, the farm
organizations of Ohio have been con-
sistent and steadfast in their taxation
program, demanding that all forms
of property contribute to the support
of the state, and that all citizens with
ability to pay, pay for the benefits OF
government received.
The organizations have always op-
posed special taxation favors to any
class. and, with the assistance of ur-
ban home owners, defeated classifica-
tions. Lately they have vigorously
protested against the reappraisement
of real estate in Ohio under present
conditions.
A Taxation Crisis it at Hand
Debts have multiplied; taxing dis
tricts are facing bankruptcy; real es-
tate is paying the highest taxes in
history. Something must be done
and done quickly.
The farm organizations, in conjunc-
tion with other great interests of the
state have agreed after long and care
full consideration and INVESTIGATION, on
the following temporary taxation pro-
gram; That the tax relief bill, known
as the Taft Bill, and thes debt limita-
tion bill, known as the Griswold Bill
should be enacted into law. Also, that
the debt limitation should be sub
mitted to the voters in the form OF
an amendment to the constitution
so that it may become permanent
check on tax spenders.
But, this will not afford permanent
relief. With the debt limitation about
to become law and with the tax limi
tations already in the statute, it, is
imperative that something definite
and constructive be done at once.
So, the farm organizations of Ohio
recommend to the Legislature nov
in session that one of the following
things be done: either
(1) that the uniform rule" which
has been in the constitution for ovel
seventy years, be placed in the statuct
so that it can be enforced to the let
ter, or
(2) that constitutional amendment
be submitted to the electors of ths
state at the next general election
which shall provide as follows:
(a) That the legislature shall pro
vide sufficient revenue for the STATE
, and taxing districts.
(b) That real estate shall never b,
taxed more than one and one-hal1
per cent of its true value in none.
unless additional specific levies are
authorized by majority vote of al
Athe electors of a taxing district vot
ing at a general election.
(c) The enactment of an income
tax which shall not be imposed upor
