ket priceand not subsequent con-
tract prices ruled under the pro
visions of the rider, although the
oninon admits that 1.-The CONTRACT
is ambiguous and is fairly ana
reasonably susceptible of the con
struction contended for" by both
the plaintiff and the defendants.
Referring to the rider IN the
contracts Justice Harris in MS
opinion says:
Meaning in Doubt.
"The contract must be couslu-
cred as a whole; and the rider
must be considered in the light Oh
the stipulation concerning the
minimum of cour cents. The RID
er is introduced by the word II
This is a word of condition; SO
that the agreement to pay more
than four cents is conditional. The
plaintiff contends that theobllga-
tion to pay more than four cents
is dependent upon two conditions
the contention being that the rid
er means that if the plaintiff has
buying price and if the plaintiff
raises that buying price this con =
tract will automatically conform
with that price.
1--WE are unable to agree with
the plaintiff in it's contention that
it's construction is the one which
must necessarily be placed upon
the rider; nor can we agree with
the plaintiff that it's construction
is theo My one of which the rider
is fairly and reasonably susceptl-
BILE. Nor can we agree with the
suggestion of the defendants that
the language of the rider was de-
liberately chosen by the PLAINTIFF S
representatives with a tr!ckish
nurDose.
Trial Court Sustained.
I'VE think the contract is am
biguous and is fairly and reason
ably susceptible of the construc-
ton contended for by the defend
ants and also, we may assume,
fairly and reasonably susceptible
Of the construction contended for
by the plaintiff. If the contract
is construed standing alone and
by itself the ambiguity must be
resolved against the plaintiff, be-
cause theplaintiff comedies that it
framed the rider and plainly on its
face rider was prepared FOR the
benefit of the defendants. Il the
contract is viewed in the light OF
what preceded and accompanied
as well as what followed its aXeCu-
tiOn the ambiguity must likewise
be resolved in favor of the defend
ants. Thet rial court resolved the
issues of fact against the plaintiff
| The evidence does not warrant us
in disturbing the findings made
by thetrial judges. The plaintiff
refused to perform the contracts
except as construed by it and this
justified the trial court in decree
ing cancellation of the contracts

"Loop" Is Considered.

Eventually a committee was ap
pointed to inquire into the feasi-
bility of endorsing the lecall
movement.
Following the formal pre5enta-
tion of the plan for a PROPOSED
loop-system for the Salem street
railway, which was offered by G,
w. Niemeyer, representing the 20
cal realty men, the council voted
to have a committee appointed to
investigate the proposal. 1t was
made plain to Mr.. Niemeyer that
the aldermen will be back of any
proposition which they believe 10
be for the benefit Of the city. MT.
Niemeyer contended that mich
better service would be rendered
the residents of all parts or the
city by the proposed system.

with the unanimous approval OF
the aldermen. Details Will De

Reddys Fox had turned his back on the half-eaten chicken hidden in a bunch of grass and bushes on the Green Meadows. 1t had been the hardest thing to do that Reddy could remember, for his stomach fairly ached he was so hungry. But there might be danger there, and it was best to be safe. So Reddy turned and trotted away where he could neither see nor smell that chicken. He caught some grasshoppers and he found family of fat beetles. They were not very filling, but they were better than nothing After while he felt better, and curled up in a warm. sunny spot to rest and think. You see, he just couldn't get that chicken out of his mind.
 Tt may be that Farmer Browns boy has set trap there, said Reddy to himself. Then he remembered that the chicken was half eaten, and he knew that 1t wasn't likely that Farmer Browns boy would have a half eaten chicken unless he had found one that Jimmy Skunk had left near the hen-yard, and for some req son, he didn't know why, he had a feeling that Jimmy Skunk had not had anything tc, do with that chick en- The more he thought about il the moro he felt sure that that chicken had selmething to do with the stranger whose voice had brought 90 much fear to the Green Meadows The very thought made him nervous and spoiled his sunbath.
 T believe I'll run over and see Bobby Coon" said Reddy. and off hs started for the Green Forest.

So Bobbys stomacl wasn't as full as usual, and he fel cross and uncomfortable. You know it is hard work to feel hungry ant pleasant at the same time.
