NO CABLE, NO NEWS

The well-rotted cable connecting Alaska with the States has once more broken south of Sitka, and the Terri tory is for the steenth time within the past two years shut off from conlmun- ication with the Outside, messages be- ing accepted at the cable offices, subject to delay"

Respect for PrickIy Porky

BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.
The more OF others one may know

-Prickly Porky.
Slowly, very slowly. Prickly Porky
the Porcupine shuffied along through
the Green Forest toward the Laugh
ing Brook. Win there was a log
in his way he didn't bother to go
around it; he crawled over it. He
didn't do at all what the young Fox
who was following him would have
done in his place: pick out the cas-
lest way. He simply went straight
ahead, regardless of what might be
in the way. So the young Fox softly
and stealthily following him learned
that Prickly Porky Is one who is very
set in his ways. When he has made
up his mind to do certain thing he
goes straight ahead regardless of
difficulties in the way.
Presently the young Fox noticed
just ahead of Pri"kly Porky what
seemed to be big black stump. 1t
He'll have to go around that"
chuckled the young Fox.
But just then surprising thing
happened. a thing that quite took
away the breath of the young Fox
and gave him one cf the worst frights
of his short life. That big black
stump turned around. Yes, Sir. that
is just what it did! You see. it wasn't
stump at all. 1t WAS Buster Bear.
He had heard Prickly Porky gruntins
fretfully and had turned to See what
it meant.
