for themselves this strange thing
which he dragged around with him.
Finally the young Fox had To give
up hunting and once more tdrned

a bite. So he was still very hun.
CRY young Fox as he made his way

How he did hate that chain! He
had hated it when it held him pris-

but it seemed to him that he hated it
more now. Then it had kept him
from running about as he pleased,
but now it kept him from getting
enough to eat.
IF 1 can't get rid Of this hateful
thing I'll starye to death" thought
the young Fox. Yes, sir, I'll starye

But he only almost wished that.
He didn't really wish it. Freedom

the way the young Fox really felt
about IT at that time.

According to the grand jury of Dcs Moincs, Iowa, automobile parties are responsible ih a great measure for immortality among the young people. And has it come to pass that there is no safety in numbers? Aren't the young people of today just the same as they were in the time of cur grand fathers? Ias human nature Cnang- ed? Didn't they have the hug-me- tight buggy when father was a boz and mother a girj?.

at ultimate plan for the highest de rsloplieHt of all the resources of tho Colorado river as great national as, set.
 "A plan for immediate national ac, tion that will disentangle flood pro. lection from all complications causing delay and afford immediate and com, plete safety from flood devastation for the Imperial valley and the Yuma project and the entire Colorado river country, is as follows:
 T. Adopt the Dayton Miami Riv- CT flood control plan on the Gila river and build the Sentinel reservoir with Gll possible expedition as an cmergca. cy flood protection structUra.
 "2. Adopt the plan urged in the LaRuc report and build the Bulls Head dam as 2 similar flood control dam, to hold back the flood of the Colorado river long enough to close 2 break if one should occur similar to the breal; of 1906-07.
 "3. Build the Glen Canyon dam solely and only as a flood control dam, without any reference whatever to any Use of the water for rcclama- tion CT power development.
 "lt can be build with onc-half the r!oncy and in half the time required to build the Bouldcr Canyon dam, and will afford complete relief for the en- tire flood menaccd region in Arizona and California.
 This plan removes the flood pro lection problem of Imperial valley and Yuma entirely from any complication with the conflict arising from the plans of Arizona and California to reclaim 2,O00,000 acres ii those states with the water of tie Colorado river which it is sought to secure for the reclamation Of a similar area in Mex ico for the establishment there of an ASiatic city and state and Gn ASiatiC colony in Mexican terri. tory There can be 20 justification for this commission dCing anything that will aid that Americano-MeXi- cano-Asiatic cohSpiracy against the United tSates of America, TOT for or delaying the rchet necessary for the Imperial valley and Yuma by an adherence to the Boulder Canyon power project. dr by attempt ing to force the adoption of Q ccm- pact at this time which is impossible without further surveys and investi- gations. Those surveys and inveStiga- l ,iCns should be made by the states and he United States through existing agencies. The time is not yet ripe Or the creation Of any new commits sicn on the Colorado river. t would merely create complications and do nore harm than good, causing delays 1 otherwise unnecessary.
 What is desperately needed to end Tn appalling danger is immediate ap- by congress for eNpendi- urc through existing national agcn- ias for flood control. An effort to reate new machinery now means de- ay where delay may be fatal to exist ng communities, cities, towns and arms. u
