EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
EDITING THE EDITOR.

(From the Boston Transcript.)
The president, editing the dipomatists in the
matter of the Specification of the phrase 'insular
possessions" in the Japanese treaty finds himself
edited in turn. He remarked the other day that IN
his opinion this phrase in the entave treaty meant
the island possessions of Japan outside of the Is
which constitute the country itself. This was the
bedrock common of the matter. We have
merely to think little. along the lines of common
sense, to see that this must be When Japan,
England, or, say, Denmark speaks of its fnsular
possessions, It is perfectly obvious that it does not
refer in the first to Nippon In the second to
Britain, in the other to Zealand or Funen. These
islands are in each case an essential part ofthc
country itself. And for that matter, is not North
America also an island-if one is going to be Pc

But while this, it seems. may be the editorial

Of journalistic training who is at the head

not permitted to mention the heirs without also

But diplomacy, though reputed to be the most subtle
and devious of sciences, is not quite pedantc as
the law. 1t Is of its virtues to be brief 1t is
affair of peoples, and of peoples that equal
and at last, let at least fondly hope, of peoples
who start out with the notion Of being fair and

UNCLE WIGGHY AND NIPPY'S
CHOO CHOO.
BY Howard b. CARTS

Once upon time as Uncle wig
gily was hopping through the
woods, he saw the dried leaves
rustling as though some animal
was making his way through
them. But the bunny gentleman
could see none.
"It can't be a snake" thought
Uncle Wiggily. "a snake is about
the only animal who can make his
way through the dried leaves with
out being seen. For a snake can
crawl under the leaves. But this
Is winter. and. as snakes don't like
cold, they are curled UP in their
dens asleep. So, as II isn't snake,
wonder what 1t can be-"
Uncle Wiggily did not have long
to wait to find out. He was not
very much afraid, for he knew it
was not Fox or Wolf, and it was
hardly a Weasel.
Then. out from under the leaves
came a small animal, with beauti-
fully thick. smooth fur, with n
long pointed nose. almost like that
of a. mouse, but the front feet Of
this animal were shaped like pad
dies, with long strong claws stick
ing out.
ION, how do you do, Mr., Ground
Mole?" called Uncle Wiggily. for
he knew, now, who the animal
was--a friend Of his. How are
you?"
mot very WELL" answered the
Mole, looking toward Uncle Wig
gily. but not exactly at him, for a
Mole has no eyes, you know, or at
least no eyes that are OF any use.
Thousands of years ago the Moles
may have had eyes. But they have
lived 30 long in their dark tunnels
under the earth. digging their way
by feeling. rather than by seeing
that now a Mole may be said to be
blind, or, rather, to have no eyes.
II don't do so very WELL" an
swered the Mole sadly.
whats the natter" asked
Uncle Wiggily, always ready to
help a friend in trouble.
WELL" answered the Mole, you
see I ought to be curled up asleep
down in one of my tunnels, but
came up to get something to eat,
the ground suddenly froze and it
Is now so hard / can not easily dig
my way back down below. / shall
have to stay UP here until the
ground thaws, and l am hungry
and cold"
'I'll take you to my bungalow.
and there you may stay and be
warm while Nurse Jane will give
you things to eat" said Uncle Wig
gily.
ooh, you are very kind" said
the Mole. "And would you mind

The MARKETS
(By The Associatcd Press.l

New York, Dec. 27.-The tenta-
tive operations of bull pools in
selected issues and occasional short
coverings in shares OF recognized

Incidents over Christmas were of
mixed or confusing character.
Assurances by st. Paul officials Of

Peoples Gas after a lapse of four
years were among favorite Develop
ments.
Another increase of idle freight
cars, lowered production Of steel
and iron in the Ohio district and
impending price reductions by sub
sidia]ries Of the General Motors
company, reflected the less encour-
aging aspects of the industrial sit

Mrs. Ella Augstrom was born in Of
vanaker, Heisingland, Sweden, Jan.
%, 1896, and had arrived at the ripe
old age of s. years and IA days on
the day of her death. April %, 1856,
she was united in marriage to Olof
AugstrOm in Sweden, and with her hus-
band and four small children she came
to this country to make home, leav-
ing Sweden in June 1867. They came
to this community at once but moved
to MoingOna where they lived but a
short time. Upon returning to this
community they located on a farm sew
en- miles northeast of StratfOrd. They
lived there until twenty-eight years
lagO when they moved into Stratford
and made this place their home until
death claimed them both.
The husband and father passed away
Sept. %, 1919. Since that time she
has lived alope in the home here.
Deceased leaves to mourn her pass
ing four sons and five daughters. They
|are: Olof F. and Peter T.. both of
StratfOrd John AugstrOm of Wilbur,

City; Mrs. J. C0ttingtOn, of Ayrshire;
Mrs. Albert Greeley of Webster City;
Mrs. G. A. Rodine of StratfOrd. Two

death, one died in Sweden and the
other here. She is also survived by
one sister in Sweden and one living
in America, twenty three grand chill
dren and twenty-five great grand chill
dren, besides a host of friends.
She was baptised and confirmed in
Sweden and has ever SINCE been
faithful and consistent member of that
church. having been member of the
local Lutheran church for more than
Ia half century. She had known the
privations and hard work Of the early
lsettler of this community and yet had
always been in the very best of health
until short time ago, when the raw
ages Of a ripe old age had weakened
an otherwise very hale and hearty body
and she was called to her Master.
Funeral services were held Tuesday
afternoon at 2 o'clock from the Luther
an church in charge Of the pastor, S.
p. Holmberg, and the remains laid
