OF course Slowpoke the Box Turtle
was quite unharmed by the four little
Foxes when they knocked him about
this way and that way. 1t wasn't
comfortable to be thrown about that
way, but Slowpoke knew that no harm
could come to him and so he made
the best of it. Even after the young
Foxes had grown tired of playing and
gone away, Slowpoke lay for long
time with the doors of his house
tightly closed. When at length he
did venture TO peep out the way was
clear, and he slowly went about his
business just as if nothing had hap
pened.
Meanwhile Reddy Fox and Mrs.
Raddy had started back with their
fourshyeIy children for their home in
thesold Pasture. Half way there they
met Jimmy and Mrs. Skunk and six
half-grown children. All of them
were fat, for they had been stuffing
themselves with grasshoppers and
grubs.

Returns With British Help
after u. S. Ship Refuses Hid
American and Family, Stranded in Buenos Ayres,
Arrive Here English Liner After Appeal for
Passage 70 Shipping Board Vessel Failed

Rafael Saunders, a penniless Amer
lean, thirty-two years old of Clarks-
burg, w. Va, was brought 60 port from
the Argentine yesterday, free of charge,
on the Lamport & Holt liner yestris
throssgh the courtesy of Captain Oscar
penrice, master of the vessel. Saunders
and his young wife and thirteen
monthsf-old baby. without friends or
money, attracted the attention and SYM
pathy of William H. Robertson, the
American consul general at Buenos
Ayres. 1t was through his efforts that
they cames here on the British liner
after an appeal to the Shipping Board
liner Southern Gross, of the Munson
Line, TO take Saunders north had failed.
Shortly before the vestris left
Buenos Ayres on August Ia Mr.. Rob.
ertson called upon FL. S. G. g. Beckett,
the ships purser, to know il he would
"sign on" Saunder and let him work
his passage to New York. He said he
had asked similar courtesy aboard
the American. steamship and had been
refused
Consul General Had No Funds
The consul general said he had no
funsd available to care for distressed
Americans, but that he was willing to
pay for steerage ticket out Of his
own pocket for Mrs. Saunders and her
infant daughter, Margaret.
The appeal was taken to Captain
Penrice, who permitted Saunders to
''sign on" for a shilling month, and
assigned to him some light task to be
within the law. Mrs. Saunders and her
baby were taken aboard as steerage
passengers, though the Vestrie was
bringing north S6T passengers as we'll
as eighty-three men Of the crew of the
steamships Byron and Tennyson, who
were returning to New York, and the
vessel was crowded.
New-York tribune., 1922-09-06

On the second day out Captain PEN
rice decided that the steerage was no
place for Mrs Saunders and her baby.
So he had them transferred TO first
cabin accommodations, which they oc-
cupied yesterday on arrival. Also, he
told Saunders that he might occupy
the stateroom wit hhis wife and child
throughout the run of 5000 miles from
Buenos Ayres.
Infant Becomes Ill
On Sunday the Saunders infant de-
veloped a rash on her forehead and
DR.. HI. L. Buster, the ships surgeon,
quarantined the child and her parents
in the ships hospital.
On Monday when Arthur Bennington
of the New York "World was award
ing the prizes for the deck sports of
the voyage, he told the story of the
plight of the Saunders family and
called upon all Americans aboard to
tressed father. Those who participated
in the collection OF the subscription
were Gilbert H. Grosvenor, president
of the National Geographic Society and
editor of the National Geographic
Magazine; MIN. Grosvenor, daugh-
ter of the late DIR. Alexander Graham
Bell, and Miss Irene E. Strain, of
Boston. A purse of S700 was COL
lected for Saunders, and when it was
delivered to him in the ships hospital
he expressed his gratitude, saying it
was the first time in his life that
he had ever been forced to accept pub
lie charity When the Vestris came
into Quarantine yesterday Saunders
and his wife and child were removed
to Hoffman Island for medical observ-
alton. ~
