still. He flew from tree to tree. doing
his best to keep out of sight and at
the same time to spy on his neigh
borS.
Sammy found it quite as dull in the
Old Orchard as it had been in the
Green Forest. He had just about
made up his mind to pick quarrel
with Welcome Robin just for the
sake of little excitement when his
sharp eyes saw something red disap-
pearing behind some bushes just back
of Farmer Browns house.
IF that isn't Reddy Fox, then I'm
no Jay" exclaimed Sammy to himself.
Il wonder what that relocated ras-
cal is doing up here. He ought to
have sense enough to keep away from
Farmer Browns at this time of year.
No one with a family has right to
take chances. and Reddy Fox GER
tainly is taking a chance when he
comes up in Farmer Browns door
yard in broad daylight l wonder
what he is after. He probably knows
that Farmer Brown and Farmer
Browns Boy are not at home. I'll
watch him. Perhaps there may be
some excitement. after ALL"
So, by a roundabout way. Sammy
flew over to a little tree just back
Of the little pen in which were the
young Ducks of Farmer Browns Boy.
Almost under him Reddy Fox lay in
the grass behind some bushes. watch
ing those Ducks. Sammy chuckled
silently. He knew just what was
going on in Reddy's mind. He knew
that Reddy knew that should he take
one of those Ducks he would be rum
ming a chance of getting into~trouble
! Sammy also knew that Reddy was
sorely tempted.
He can catch one Of those Ducks
and get away with it just as easily as
not" thought Sammy. IF he does
that there will be no excitement at
ALL I can't let Reddy Fox get away
so easily as all that. Reddy thinks
that no one sees him.. I'll let him
keep on thinking SO until the last
minute"
So Sammy kept his tongue still and
watched. He watched and waited.
His eyes twinkled as he saw Reddy
struggling with temptation. He
chuckled, but it was noiseless
chuckle.- as he saw Reddy's mouth
begin to water. He won't be able to
leave them alone" thought Sammy.
His stomach will overcome his COM
mon sense. His stomach is going to
set him into trouble. l feel 1t in my
bones"
So Sammy watched and waited and
wished that Reddy would hurry and
make up his mind. At last Reddy be-
gan to creep forward very slowly
and very carefully, keeping himself
as fiat as possible in the tall grass
Sammy's eyes sparkled. Now was
the time for some excitement.

oughly dry and wilted, and not even
cut stems and plenty of water are
enough to bring them back to crisp

so dry on a hot day like this. If you
will plunge your entire armload into
the bathtub when you get home, sub
merging them right up to the bios

water, and then spread three or four
wet bath towels over the top of the

you will find by the next morning
that your flowers are as fresh and
snappy as they ever were. The wet
towels keep the air around them cool
and moist and that revives the petals
and helps along the work the water
in the stems is doing. Don't let the
blooms slip under the watAr and
don't let the wet towels sag and
press down on them. If the blos-

Seniority Rights
By John Bush

The controversy relative to senior
ity rights, upon which C considerable
comment has been made recently in
regards to the railroad strike, like
many others that exist between capi-
tai and labor, the public knows little
about the facts.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
railroad managers are endeavoring
to make seniority, as the employers
want to apply it, appear to the public
as an imposition and an unwarranted
request, the truth Of the whole mat
ter is when the details are weighed
in the balance, the employers have
the advantage.
The first and most important fact is
that the so-called turnover of labor,
which means some men quitting and
others being hired in their places, is
very expensive. Starting a new man
in a railroad shop is very much like
buying a new pair of shoes. They
are better perhaps than the old ones
but they must be broken in before
they are really comfortable, and some
discomfort is frequently experienced
in so doing. A new man in a shop
may be better, as regards mechanical
ability, that the man older in the
service, but it takes long time for
him to become acquainted with the
shop system of work, the foreman, the
tools, machinery, etc. Therefore he
cannot accomplish as much as the
older man.
In all large railroad shops there is
a great variety of work. The major
ity of shops have their work divided
so that certain number of men
(called gangs) do certain class OF
work, and it has been one of ou1
hardest fights to get the company to
give apprentice boys an opportunity
to work and get experience on all
classes of work, so that when they
have served their time, usually -four
years, they will be valuable men to
the company.
There are two general divisions OF
the work. One is called roundhouse
work, which is divided into two
classes, called light and heavy run
ming repair. The other is called erect
ing or back shop work. The light
running repair work, which Includes
the greater part of the roundhouse
