Uncle Wiggily was hopping along

den he saw, coming toward him, Susie
Littletail, the rabbit girl.
"Good morning, Susie greeted
Uncle Wiggily politelE,- with little
twinkle of his pink nose. "You arc
going to school, l think; aren't you?'
asked the rabbit gentleman
"'Yes," >" answered Susie, ~ am. And
I know my lessons, too, so the lady
mouse teacher won t keep me in"
"That S fine!' laughed Uncle Wig
gily. "But where is your Hothcr Sam

with you?'
A serious look came over Susie 5
funny little face. She glanced up at
the bunny gentleman and answered:
"Sammic wouldn't t come to school
with me this morning.
"My goodness! exclaimed Uncia
Wiggily, and he twinkled his pinE
nose faster than ever, 81 hope you two
children haven't had n quarrel. You
and Sammie aren t angry at each other
are YOU, Susie, my dear?'
ooh, no! it ism that said Susie
wggling her paws around on the troz
en- sand of the path, ''but Sammic
is doing something-sOmething very
strange nd--and-mysteriou Uncle

shook her head sadly.

The first use of water on a large scale
for irrigation purposes in the Imperial
Valley is on the land of w. F. Holt,
south of Imperial, leased to Messrs:
jerks and Edgar, where 160 acres of
barley are being planted.
There is every reason to believe that
in the course of cultivation the eonstit-
uents and texture of the soil in the I'm
pcrial Valley will undergo marked
changes, as the soii Of every new

SLOW POLITICAL MACHINERY

Once in a while American is moved to wonder
whether his governmental system is after ALL the best in
the world in every respect.
The Congress chosen here November cannot posi-
bly, start work before March Of next year. and not
til December year unless the president calls
special session
The Parliament elected in England on November Is
sembed and got down to business November 20,
matter There delay of five days. against
delay here of four to 13 months.
The American method may have certain advantages in
the way Of tempering national bransorm and preventing
hasy legislation but the English method obviously affords
more responsive and representative government England
has more direct action than have in legislation, in
court procedure.

on the principles Of the turnstile and
that it will register the arrival home
