Fairy Tale
ALICE ALLIGATOR
~MARY GRAHAM BONNtR

"Yes 1t is true" said Alice. the Ar
Iigator In the zoo, II am lazy. Bu'
wbv should | be anything else? Neigp
bor Crocodile feels the same way as
/ do.
"How foolish It would be If rushed
about trying to be SO very busy. lhere
would be no point In building up
large alligator business for myseir.
"The things alligators are useful tor
are their skins which are used for Dags
and music cases and so forth. we
wouldn't want to sell these things our
selves. 1t wouldn't be just uice.
"Of course an alligator has been
known to eat little alligators, but IL
wouldn't do to have business OF al
ligator skins.
"It would sound in very bad taste
to say:
"Come and buy a nice bag today
It is Cousin Alta Alligator's best ana
only skin you will be having
"No, that wouldn't sound well at ALL
"And so shall not go into business.
Great wealth wouldn't Interest me.
I'm well-fed here ! only care for food
and sleep.
"What would l do with lots OF
Uoney? / couldn't rush to the bank

and put It In which Is what some peo-
pie do with their money. Oh yes, they
seem to get a great deal Of happiness
seeing 1t pile up and up.
''There are no banks for alligators
where alligators can put their money.
"Of course there are the banks
where alligators can lie down and
rest and sleep and dream, but they're
entirely different.
"It wouldn't interest me to have lots
Of money to spend. / wouldn't care
to buy an automobile or 60 to Coun.
ty Fair and buy lots of candy and pop
corn and have I,y tintype taken the
way I've heard children at the ZOO
say they they've been doing lately.
mo, money has no interest for me.
And so will not work to make money.
Neither will work for the joy of
working, for to me there Is no Joy in
working.
II hope everyone knows the differ.
ence between an alligator and q
crocodile.
"An alligator has fiat head while
the head Of crocodile Is triangular
In shape or three-cornered, as I'd say
In more simple fashion.
I'VE lie about In the sunshine In the
700 and we let the people watch us.
We don't bother to look our best for
them-we just flop about in any old
fashion and pay no attention to them.
II they want to see US we do not mind,
but we don't let them think that it
flatters us, for 1t doesn't.
That's fine sentence! Only an
alligator could say anything as foolish
and not be ashamed.
"Now the monkeys are very clever.
AT five o'clock their keeper always
brings them some water and a little
meal-a banana or SO, perhaps.
"They always know when it is about
five o'clock, and you can hear them
chattering about their coming meal.
"Their keeper talks Of how bright
they are. He doesn't think so much
Of us.
He Is very fond of his coati.mundi
or anti-bear, too. Fat Is his name and
he looks something like a raccoon. The
keeper dances with him and they
dance about holding hands as grown.

"How do l know how a grownup

Ing with a child once. Yes, l did. II

THE camels in the zoo are looking
better. Their new hair which was
very thin at first as 1t was growing
In under the old hair is now pretty
oice.
IF you're interested in big teeth 7
should think you'd think that came,s
also had good-sized teeth.
THE baby bison and her mother and
father were all lying In the sun NJ this
Tar corner of their yard not long arc
when they saw a lot of people aowr
at the outside end of their yard.
And they were all so obligins tha,
they got right up and marched dowr

"No. there's nothing very friepd,x

DEMOCRACY AND EDUCATJox

 This is one of Governor McRae's bob bies and he is determined that avo,u thing possible shall be done during h,, administration to put the schools unor firm basis. The educational plank If the platform follows:
 We declare for be ter educationol advantages. Arkansas is in the mids. ot an educational crisis. We commend the able and progressive administn. tion of the present superintendent If education. and advocate further ad to the Forward Education Movement to the end that Arkansas may be lifted from it's low rank in education. We en. dorSe the move by Governor McRae to have an honorary commission make survey of educational conditions and pledge our party to an organized as SiStance of the present nominees for governor and superintendent of public instruction in their pleas for public support and legislative enactment for the relief of our schools.
 We favor the transfer of all lands now owned or hereafter acquired by the state to the permanent school fund. We recommend that an ample number of well trained patriotic teachers. tho roughly imbued with American ideals and with a thorough knowledge of our institutions, be maintained in the pub. lie schools. In order that the boys and girls under their tutelage may become one hundred per cent American and all idea of a hyphenated citizenship be abandoned, necessary funds should be speedily provided to the end that the teaching force in the public schools may be well educated, well equipped and thoroughly qualified. We favor the adequate support consistent with the states resources of all of the states educational institutions to take care Of their growing needs.
 Through the agricultural schools op' portunity is offered hoys and girls for an education that peculiarly fits them for the duties of life. We recommend that the legislature investigate the needs of these schools and enact sucn measures as may be necessary to en able such schools to carry into enecI the purpose for which created, and t0 meet such contingencies as may Ot tnecessaryl caused by oyertaxihe their capacities by the erection Of ao ditional buildings and the purehas' when necessary, Of new eqiupment'
