REppY FOX ALMOST GETS a
DINNER
BY THORNTON w. BUR

You've often heard the saying old
about the famous slip
That Unexpectedly occurs between
the cup and lip;
Twas even thus with Reddy Fox
when most he would be fed:
onMeadow Mouse he thought to dine,
but hungry went instead.
when Danny Meadow Mouse dart
ed right in front of Reddy Fox to
save little Miss Nanny Meadow
Mouse, on whom Reddy was just
about to spring, ne did one OF the
bravest deeds that any one could do.
Reddy was so surprised that for just
a teeny. weeny minute he didn't know
just what to do and in that teeny,
weeny minute little Miss Nanny ran
out from under the little bunch OF
grass where she had been sitting, and
where Reddy had known that she
was sitting, and away to q place OF
safety. Then Reddy sprang. He
sprang straight at bold Danny Mead
ow Mouse, just as Danny had ex-
pected he would, and because he was
so excited and surprised he missed
Danny. which was also as Danny ex-
pected
Danny lodged and ran along the
Little path that led through the thick
est grass, and then began one OF the
most exciting races Of all the excit-
ing races Danny had ever run. The
grass was so thick that Reddy could
not see him. but he could see the
grass move as Danny ran, and so he
kept jumping just ahead Of the place
where the grass was moving. Time
and time again he almost landed on
poor, frightened Danny. Once his
toenails actually tore Danny's trous-
ers and made Danny squeal with pain
and fright, but he wriggled free and
ran harder than ever.
Now. Danny had had a great deal
| Of experience in his short life, and
he knew the ways of Reddy FoN
| quite as well as Reddy knew his
ways. He knew that it was his wits
| against Reddy's wits. He knew. too
that if he just ran Reddy would soor
catch him. for. oil course, a great
big fellow like Reddy can run great
deal faster than a little bit of fellow
| like Danny. So he knew that il he
would escape he must fool Reddy
| Fox. So once as Reddy sprang Danny
! stopped short, and, Of course, Redds
| sprang completely over him. Their
Danny darted back the way he haC
| just come For a minute Reddy was
fooled. Then he heard the rustic oi
Danny's scurrying feet behind hin
and knew what had happened In
stantly he whirled about and wa:
| after Danny once more.
Now il Danny had been near his
/ own home he would have had plenty
of safe hiding places, but over here

Hair Often Ruined
BY Careless Washing

Soap should be used very care
fully, il you want to keep your
hair looking its best. Most soaps
and prepared shampoos contain
too much a1l1aI This dries the
scalp. makes the hair brittle, and
ruins it.
The best thing for steady use
is Mulsified cocoanut oil sham
poo (Which is pure and grease
less), and is better than any
thing else you can use.
Two or three teaspoonfuls of
Mulsified in a cup or glass with
a little warm water is sufficient
to cleanse the hair and scalp
thoroughly. Simply moisten the
hair with water and rub it in. 1t
makes an abundance of rich
creamy lather. which rinses out.
easily, removing every particle of
dust. dirt, dandruff and excess oil.
The hair dries quickly and evenly,
and it leaves the scalp soft. and
the hair fine and silky. bright,
lustrous. fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get Mulsifiel cocoanut
oil shampoo at any pharmacy. it's
very cheap. and a few ounces

family for months. Be sure your

KITCHEN
RADIsHEs
Tasty Mays 70 serve Them


While radishes have little real food
value in muscle building way they
do have a distinct place among the
mineral and ballast foods. The con-
stituents Of the radish are much the
same as the turnip.
IL you would make radish posies to
serve with the salad at a party" I"
here is the way to do it.
Choose round red radishes, not too
big. Wash carefully and cut off the
tops to within three -eighths inch
from the radish. Make six cuts from
the root end Of the radis1 almost to
the stem end. Cut just through the
red skin and be sure that the in
cisions meet at the root end. Peel
each petal shaped section back as
far as the cut 'extends.
Put in very cold water for two
hours. The petals will spring out
and curl back. Serve on the salad
plate with an olive.
An early variety of white radish is
very sweet and crisp and makes de-
licious sandwiches.
Radish Sandwiches
Wash the long yrite radish care
fully and scrape lightly with a sharp
knife. Let stand in very cold water
for two hours. Drain and slice very
thin. Sprinkle lightly with salt and
put between thin slices of white
bread and butter. These sandwiches
are excellent to serve with a fish
salad or a lettuce salad with a Rus
sian or cheese dressing.
Creamed Radishes
Three cups round red radishes,
| tablespoons butter. tablespoons
flour, q cup milk, 4 tablespoons wa
ter radishes were cooked in. x tea
spoon salt, ls teaspoon pepper,
tablespoons grated cheese, 4 table
/ spoons buttered crumbs.
| Wash radishes carefully and cut
off every bit of stem. Cover with
boiling water, add / teaspoonful oi
salt and boil half an hour. Drair
from water, saving 4 tablespoonsfu
! for the sauce. Put radishes in q
buttered dish. Melt butter, stir ir
/, flour and slowly add milk, stirring
constantly.
Add radish water. salt and pepper
and cook two minutes. Pour sauce

ANNUAL MAY FETE
BY TRINITY GUILD

Casa Blanca, Mrs. Dwight B.

ernoon Of the third annual May fete
given by the Trinity guild of Trinity
cathedral for the benefit of the guild
funds. Mrs. Howard S. Reed, presi-

the affair.
Bridge tables for the afternoon
game are still to be reserved by tele.
phoning Mrs. Reed, Mrs. Ancil Mar

William Lentz. This will, OF course,
furnish the main attraction for those
who enjoy a couple Of hours at cards.
But there will be any number of
diversions for those who do not care
for cards, the fortune telling booth
being one of the attractions always
found at entertainments of this kind.
Quite a noted pianist has been en-
gagged to tell the past. present and
future OF those who like to be re-
assured BY experts about the conduct
OF their affairs.
Mothers may cease to worry about
what baby is going to wear after
viewing the varied assortment of
children's play clothes which will be
on sale at the apron counter. Here
also will be found plain and fancy
aprons. quite smart enough some of
them, to be taken for afternoon wear
Miss Paula Revare, who has charge
of the entertainment program, will
feature some of her most talented
dancing pupils in aesthetic dancing,
beside which some of the most ac-
complished musicians of the city will
lend their services for the pleasure
Of helping the worthy cause.
Last, but by far one of the most
important features of the fete, is the
refreshment booth. where cooling
drinks and Ice cream and cake may
be had in satisfying quantities. a
lawn fete without refreshments
would be as unsatisfactory as a cir
Gus without its pink lemonade.

ALASKA oF LAw ANp oRDER

Until the twentieth century
dawned the importance of an Alaska
town was measured by the number
OF it's saloons and dance halls. Today
all is changed. The boast of eacif
growing community is its schools
and homes. Dancing continues the
popular diversion: but the dance hall
like the saloon, is an institution OF
the past Instead, the art terpsi-
chorean attracts Its polite, we'll
dressed and sober devotees to prop
erly appointed places Of entertain
ment. President Harding may not
indulge in the dreamy whirl when he
comes to Alaska but he can hardly

a mortal shot, really spelled the doom
of the card trickster and hold-up
artist. Being a mans country in

were not easily shocked, but fair
play even then was its motto, and
subsequently it wisely learned that,
as a business proposition. the toleT-
alton of gaming houses and brothels

away, so decisive and final was it.
He had overplayed his game, the ay-
aricfous old scoundrel. Too well did
his erstwhile patrons know him to
give him any quarter. The Alaska
dry law antedates the Nolstead en-
actment. IL it were to be done over
unuuestionably the knock out blow
would be equally decisive.
The way of the transgressor is be-
