Hurry up Jack" called Ruth 10
her brother who had gone into tbs
back yard to work on his auto "Un-
Gle Ted is going to tell US story.
That was enough to bring Jack IN
a hurry.
IT hardly know where to start On
a story this time" began Uncle Ted
There is so much to say about what
our president and his helpers are do
ing to help the country get back or
its feet as II was in the good old days
President Harding Is not simply taxi
ing care Of the matters that natural
ly come to president. which are en-.
ough to keep him going day and
night He has already gone tho
oughly into the various branches CT
UT government to see If there cannot
be many improvements made, ini-

There is one interesting change
that is being talked about in connec-
