Bedtime Stories
The Cunning of Yowler the Bob Cat
By Thornton W. Burgess
..Often effort goes to acaste
sJetst Sccause of too much haste.
-Yowler the Bob Cat.

FOWLER had learned the truth OF
This by experience. He had long ago
slearned that patience often will win
swhat haste would lose. So when he
discovered that Paddy the Beaver
sand Mrs. Paddy always took the logs
sand branches from their new pond
across their new dam at q certain
point to get them into the Laughing
sBrook and SO down to their old
lpond where their food pile was TO be.
he decided that this was the one
place where he might have chance
of catching one OF them.
"They know that as we'll as do
aaid Yowler to himself. .They know
they are perfectly safe while they
are in the water, and don't even have
to watch out. That means that they
will be all the more careful and
watchfal when they do come out OF
the water. Two of them will be able
TO watch out better than one. For
while they are going to be very,
very watchful whenever they cross
that dam. would like one of them
FOR a dinner, bat q Beaver dinner is
az good one time as another, and the
thing Tor me to do is to be patient.
# | never show myself or let them
Know that | am ever anywhere about
here they will grow careless after
: while, That will be my chance
I 80 Yowler watched and waited
night after night Never once did
ae show himself. Never once did he
make the mistake of hiding where
the Wandering Little Night Breezes
could carry his scent to the keen
noses Of Paddy and Mrs. Paddy. The
temptation was great, very great, to
hide close to that point whore they
crossed the dan, and try for one of
,thens But Yowler was too cunning
to yield to that temptation. "They
are still too watchful," he would say
70 himself. s.I'la wait. until / am sure
.haG they have made up their minds
that there is no danger. I've seen
Old Man Coyote around here two or
three times, and | am afraid that
shey have seen him too. They are
likely to be on the watch for him if
net for me. SO ! must wait until he
gets discouraged and gives up trying
Tor them. Ii takes q lot. of patience,
but Beaver dinner will be worth all
II costs.
Vow, even the eleverest people will
make mistakes, and viii overlook
what may seem like trifiing things.
1t WAS so with Yowler the Bcb Cat.
New-York tribune., 1922-11-30
But the neat time Paddy came
along that poy he saav that
footprint at once

Often whes he knew that Paddy and
Mrs. Paddy were at their house in
the old pond he would prowl around
that new dam. In doing this he left
footprint in some fresh mud. He
didn't notice this. Perhaps he
wouldn't have thought anything about
it if he had.
But the next time Paddy came
along that way he saw that foot
print st once, and he knew who had
made it. There are no footprints
like the footprints Of Yowler the
Bob Cat excepting those of his
cousin, Tufty the Lynx. And Paddy
knew that Tufty the Lynx was not
living in the Green Forest. Paddy
showed that footprint to Mrs. Paddy.
tYowler the Bob Cat has been
here" said he. Never once since we
started building this dam have we
seen him or heard him or smelled
him, and I had hoped that he had
net discovered what we have been
doing. But felt it In my bones that
ne had. Now ! know it. We mustn't
for an instant be careless, my dear.
Sooner or later Yowier is going to
try to catch one of us crossing this
dam know il just as well as If he
had told me So
So while night after night Yowler
patiently waited. Paddy and Mrs.
Paddy worked steadily, but always
watehfully.

Il have been pestere1 by pleas for

and have received numerous testi.
monials Of the previous good character
of this man, bur there will be no
snsnsnsion of sentence in this case.
Rather, trust the Legislature will
soon make cases like this murder IN
the first degree. 1t Is true tha. this
man took his road test the day before,
but road tests are. in my opinion, an
abomination."
Perjury Charges Ordered
Judge McIntyre's denunciation Of
careless taxi men and automobile
drivers interrupted Lipzin's counsel
when he sought to point out that there
were several discrepancies in the testi-
mony an which his client had been cor
victed. The jury had held. however,
that Lipzin had been positively identi-
fed as the driver Of the machine which
ran up on the sidewalk and killed the
Struhs boy, despite the testimony of
witnesses who were produced in his
behalf.
Judge Mcintyre directed Assistant
District Attorney James E. Mcdonald
to press charges of perjury against
several of these witnesses, who, the
jadgo daciared, had deliberately falsi-
fed to help Lipzia.

That is the way Jeff II. Williams,
secretary of the Retail Merchants
association described the first Mon
day sales day held here yesterday.
There was larger crowd in
Cbickasha yesterday than on any
other sales day held here in two
years. said Mr. Williams. "The
auction sale was attended by a
larger crowd by about half tNn |
have ever seen there. The farm
ers and others who brought articles
to sell, received prices better than
usual for their stuff and there was
more of it sold than was anticipated.
"Chikasha merchants reported to
me this morning that their business
was better yesterday than it has
been since 1920 One merchant de-
clared he did more business yes
terday than he had ever done in
any single day before.
"Cooler weather, in my opinion is
responsible for part of the over
flow crowd. Another important
phase, which may be an answer to
the increasing crowds, is that people
in the Chickasha trade aera are
learning that when Chickasha mer
chants advertise bargain day
there will be real bargains offered.
