Then. the big kind elephant picked
up the little rabbit with his great
long trunk and placed him on his
back. "We1l go for a ride" he said
and started down the street. / guess
he forgot all about asking Uncle
Lucky for a larger salary he was
SO glad to see his little bunny friend.
Well, by and by. they came to the
Shady Forest where all the feather
ed folk and the Four-Footed Little
People began to sing:
"Oh. tell US when the circus
Is coming back to town:
It's just about a year ago
Since last we saw the clown,
And, Oh dear me, we want to go
And see the elephants in row.

said the elephant. where's the
best place."
Fright over here on the Chestnut
Tree" cried Chippy Chipmunk.
Everybody who goes up the Forest
Trail passes here"
SO, the big elephant undid his bag
and taking out a beautiful colored
poster, tackled it up on the tree as
nice as YOU please. First, he pressed
in a little tack with the finger on
the end of his trunk and then he
took hammer and drove in the tack
and after that was done. he gave a
loud trumpet and went away with
the little rabbit on his back into the
next story, when YOU shall hear what
happened after that.

WHOLLY UNDESIRABLE"

'"The presence Of Nine. Kalinin in
this country is rendered wholly
undesirable by the deep feeling which
has been aroused by the execution
of Vicar General Butchkavitch. The
action of the department is taken
especially as protest against the
execution" L.
In addressing this to Nadine
Kalinin, Secretary Hughes but per-
formed his manifest duty. one which.
after all, will relieve Madam kalinin
from an embarrassing predicament.
She was coming over here to plead.
ostensibly at least. for aid to the
famine orphans of Russia. There is
nothing, however, to assure donors
that the funds would be so applied.
Communism doesn't believe in re-
ligion, in keeping an agreement or
in any medieval notions which have
served for centuries to enable people
to deal fairly decently with one an
other.
Our Government had decided to ad-
init her with the understanding she
was to restrict her propaganda to
the needs of the Russian famine
orphans. Then came news of the
execution of Vicar General Butch
kavitch of the Roman Catholic
church after a trial which was a
farce and in pursuance of a policy
of persecution of all religion.
No longer Madame Kalein ap-
peared as the representative of the
orphans of the Russian famine. She
is closely affiliated with the authori-
ties responsible for this murder and
she Is beyond question "undersir-
able" wholly so. There isn't room
here for her kind.

The impression to be had from the
number of pardons asked and con-
sidered is that if all these be neces-
sary the courts must have done a
poor job in the first place. also that
q good deal of money - being vast
ed. AS a matter of fact we believe
the evidence would support the be-
lief that the courts did a good job

process did a poor job and out of

the ridiculous. Must the Law look

Rivalry Still RankIeS

Dear Miss Lee: l am young woman ID
years old. l have been married since June,
love my husband dearly, but he is Jealous,
! care for no one but him. Because man ]
used to 90 out with before we were married
still speaks to me- he is Jealous He has
marry him before my husband did. 1s
there any way to keep my husband rom get
ting furious when he knows this man has
spoken to me?
Ny husband has no cause to be jealous,
because l am open and abOve-board about
everything. He speaks to every woman he
knows and will allow me to speak to every
man I know except this one. JUNE.
Foolish husband! Can't you make
him see that the fact that you refused
to marry this man because you loved
the one you did marry is safeguard
enough? And that as long as you tell
him about any conversations you have
with the other man, he need have no
fear?
1t is a stubborn case, so be careful
not to aggravate it by being over
friendly with the man. Just nod and
q word of greeting should suffice.
Your husband cannot expect you
to cut" the man entirely just because
he was unfortunate enough to Iowa
YOU once. That would be poor way
for YOUR husband to show his victory
over his rival. Appeal to his sports
manship.
