Gle Wiggily slept, along came
creeping the Woozie Wolf to nibble
his ears.
"I'll sneak up on him while he's
asleep" whispered the Wolf. And
the bad chap was just doing this
when along came crawling a lot Of
the ants who loved the bunny.
ooh, we must save him!" they
whispered. And then about forty
thousand of those ants crawled on
the VOLTS tail, and they tickled
and tickled him so much, making
him itch and want to scratch, that
he turned around and cried:
"Wouchw
That cry awakened Uncle Wig
gily, and he quickly ran In his
bungalow and closed the door so
the Wolf couldn't get him. And the
ants kept on tickling the bad chap
SO hard that he had to run away
to hide. and so he didn't nibble the
bunny's ears that day.
Now 1t Is my turn to thank
you" said Mr.. Longears to the
ants. "The favors are even" And
so they were. And II the lemonade

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE

By Howard B. CARTS

"Come here, Uncle wiggilyp'
called Nurse Jane one day to the
bunny rabbit gentleman, as she
stood on the stoop of the hollow
stump bungalow. Come here"
What have been doing now?"
asked Mr.. Longears, for Nurse Jane
Fuzzy WuzZy's voice sounded like
trouble.
ooh, you haven't been doing any,
thing" went on the muskrat lady
hclsekeeper. "But l would like to
have you get the hose and water
the grass. We haven't had any
rain in long time, and the grass
is all drying up.
Get out the hose, like a good
bunny gentleman, and make believe
it's raining. 1t will cool you off this
hot day and also do the grass
good" said the muskrat lady.
II will" exclaimed Uncle Wig
gily, and little later he was
sprinkling water ON the thirsty
grass. The little green spears, some
of which had become scar and
brown because of the heat and dry
ness, lifted up their heads and
drank deep of the refreshing
water.
THANK you, Uncle wiggily!"
whispered the grass.
you are very welcome!" said
the bunny gentleman.
AS he kept on swinging the hose
to and fro, to scatter the drops as
much as possible, Uncle Wiggily

suddenly heard some other voices
saying:
"oh, dear! It's raining and we
can't go!"
Looking down in the grass the
bunny gentleman saw number of
ants, who had just come out of
their little house of sand at one
corner of the lawn.
cts raining There's a heavy
shower up herer cried the ants.
"Oh, no there isn'tl" Uncle Wig
gily answered, for he understood
ant talk. I'm just using the hose
so the grass won't die. But of
course the falling drops must seem
like rain to you"
"They do" answered the largest
ant. ut isn't that we mind getting
wet, Uncle Wiggily," the ant said,
"for we are used to water. But the
drops, whether they come from
your hose or the rain, always tickle
us. We are very ticklish ants, and
If we have to march over the grass
where you are sprinkling, and the
drops fall on us, we shall be very

ooh, / wouldn't. want that to
happen" said the jolly bunny gen.
,tleman. "I'll turn the hose off I'M
til you march past"
mo, don't do that" replied the
largest ant. 'The grass needs the
water. We ants will just get our
umbrellas, hold them over our
heads and then If the drops fall on
US they won't tickle us. Keep on
sprinkling, Uncle Wiggily."
"All right" answered the bunny,
II WILL But I didn't know ants
had umbrellas"
"Well, they aren't like the one
you carry" spoke the head ant. I'm
fact, they are only green leaves
that we carry by the stems over our
heads. But they are as good as
umbrellas. Keep on sprinkling."
So Uncle Wiggily did, and soon
he saw a long procession of ants
marching over the grass, each one

carrying a little leaf for an UNI
brella. Right under the falling
drops of the hose marched the tick
fish ants, and not one Of them
laughed, for the leaf umbrellas
kept all but their legs dry, and
they didn't mind their legs getting
wet. 1t was only when their backs
were wet that they felt tickled.
"Thank you for wanting to be
kind to us. in turning off the hose"
said the biggest ant, as he passed
on with the others. "But having our
leaf umbrellas we are all right.
Keep on wetting the grassr'
So the bunny did. But the sun
was warm, and soon he fell asleep.
The hose fell from his paw and be-
gan squirting into Nurse James
kitchen, until she ran out to turn
off the water.
"I'll let Uncle Wiggily sleep
where he is" she said. He's tired"
The bunny was slumbering on the
bottom steps Of the porch, and

MRS. ]. D. JONES
To STUDY LAW
IN CALIFORNIA
Wife of Local Forest Serv-
ice Official to Complete
Work for Law Degree;
Expects to Practice.

After raising her children
through babyhood to the school
age, Mrs. ]. D. Jones of this city,
wife of a forest official, will re-
turn to school herself and COM
plete her work for a law degree.
She is leaving next week for Cali
fornia where she will resume her
study Of law begun several years
ago in Washington. D. G.
Mrs. Jones husband has a law
degree. The household conversa-
ton and the volumes of law books
which were always around to be
read in odd moments and family
inclination toward law were re-
sponsible for her ambition to be-
come a lawyer herself. She ex-
poets to practice when she gets her
degree, and to specialize in tuve-
nile court work and on women's
cases.
She began her legal studies in
1917. She attended the National
School of Law. a woman's law
school, and took some courses in
the law school of George Wash
ington university. She gave up her
law work in 1919 when Mr.. Jones
was transferred from Washington
to Albuquerque in the United
States forest service. Mr.. Jones,
who has a law degree from the
University Of Michigan, is assistant
district forester here.
The Jones family will start from
Albuquerque by automobile on Au-
gust 81 for Los Angeles. Mrs.
Jones and the children will enroll
in the law department Of the Uni
versity of Southern California. 1t
will probably require a year and a
half of study for Mrs. Jones to
complete her work for her L. L, B.
degree. Mr.. Jones will return here
after fow weeks on the coast get
ting his family located,
