into the race. too. At first, the man
who managed the Fair wouldn't let
him, but the Old Brown Horse begged
so hard that at last the man answer
ed:
IF you'll let Little Jack Rabbit ride
you in the next race, I'll let YOU try.
"All right, said the Old Brown
Horse, kicking up his heels and
nei2hing. he was so happy, you see.
You must put on a jockey suit
said the man to the little rabbit, lead
ing him to little house, where he
gave him red silk jacket and a Aair
Of breeches and two shiny black top
boots. Then, handing him little
whip and a rcd cap, he said
''Now. you look like a real jockey,
and lifting up the little bunny he
placed him on the Old Brown Horse,
who at once trOtted over to the track
to wait with the other horses until
the race started. y
Well sir and well man! You Should
have heard the people shout when
they saw the little rabbit on the Old
Brown Horse. The men threw up
their hats and the women waved their
handkerchiefs, and Uncle Lucky
shouted:
He's my little nephew bunny,
Watch him win the race,
II he doesn't I'll so home
And never wash my face.
Then the race started. Away went
the horses as fast as they could 60
all but the Old Brown Horse. He was
the last of all and everybody thought
he'd be left mile behind. Maybe some
thought he'd turn around and come
back but not a bit of it, he just kept
right on and by and by he came up
close to the leader and pretty soon. not
50 very long he got ahead and when on
the home stretch, ne let out his fouI
legs, the first thing everyone knew he
had won the race. Wasn't that won
dcrful? And in the next story YOU
shall hear what they gave Little Jack
Rabbit for winning the race.

JUST WHAT is WANTED

\ subscriber telcphoned the office
yesterday suggesting that the quick
est possible way to settle that Dead
River water storage problem would
be for the Governor to have drawn up
such a bill as he would be willing to
approve.
This person expressed the opinion
that the Governor, under all the cir
cumstanccs, should be expected to co
no less. lie has been telling folks
some Of the things he would not per-
nit, now why not tell them definitely
what in this particular instance, he
ould be willing to have?
With this for definite ground to
stand upon interested parties would
be able to learn just what was ex-
pCCtcd and whether they would be
willing to become party to it.
Unless some such common ground
for advancing this particular project
may he found. calling the Legislature
together might be as Intellectual as
ii would be expensive. 1t would seem
that the last Dead River proposal
about which there was an apparent
misunderstanding would hardly meet
al. the requirements of the present
situation.
Just what would the Governor re-
qEire done before he would give it his
arproyal?

121 Years Christian
Enterprise in Report
Presbyterian Assembly

indianapolis, May 23.-Dr. John A.
Marquis of New York, general secre-
tary, today presented the annual re-
port Of the Presbyterian Board of
ltonle Missions to the PRESBYTERIAN
General Assembly. 1t covers l2l
years OF Christian enterprise. during
which time the Presbyterian Home
Boards concern has been for the
isolated. the poor. the alien, and all
handicapped and under privileged
people. The keynote has been that
there must I've no one beyond the
hearing of the Gospel.
The aim of the board has been and
is nothing short of the Christian
lzation Of America, the report de-
ciafos. Its service has been to the
American Indian. to the retarded
mountain areas. to the wen in the
north woods, to the Eskimo above the
Arctic Circle, to the spanish speak
ing people in the southwest and in
the West Indies. to the aliens in cities
and industrial ccntcrs Home mis-
sion forces today are n factor in the
maintenance of more than one-t third
of all the Presbyterian churches and
IN the support Of one fourth of all
Presbyterian nil listers. while in
nearly every synod the home mission
organization carries the main burden
OF every forward movement.
At the present time PRESBYTERIAN
home mission work is conducted
within the bounds of A. states. two
territories and two contiguous indie
pendent nations The number of
commissioned missionaries now ex-
CppIS 2 iOu and tho annual ox,o,,J;
lures are in the neishborhood OF
Si,0o0.o00. The Board of Home
Missions and various self supporting
synods have expended in their his
tory an amount probably in excess
of S60,000000 and have issued over
10000 commissions to missiona ries.
In conclusion the report says: THE
educational work of the home board
is based on these principles: America
is not place but n set of ideals
about God. life, liberty. happiness;
set of ideals which the Presbyterian
church did much to instill into the
early life Of this nation. These ideals
are fighting hard to survive. and are
in danger Of being supplanted by
lower and less Christian ideals. We
must not only plant churches but
make them effective spiritual lead
ers. Tremendous challenges are
presented to the church by millions
Of people who have not lad an equal
chance. The more than 1900 Pres
byterian home m ssionares are en-
gagged in the biggest job in America,
are working in the most difficult
places. and are in need Of the moral
and financial support of the whole
church.

"Lots of men expect opportunity to
carry a letter of introduction"
CONSIDERING ALASKA

President Hardins's decision TO
visit and travel in Alasl;a, undoubted-
~ will serve to revive interest in that
far away domain of ours. This inter-
est has been tagging in the past few
years, it appears from the reports of
the country's population. Following
the census of 1910 this population be-
gan slowly to dwindlc and is now cs-
tima;od at 10000, of whom half are
whites and the rest I,skimos or other
colorcd races.
This reduction does not seem due to
any lessening of the material adVan-
tages which Alaska has and must
yield to the right seeker for them. OF
a total area one fifth as large as all
the forty eight states of this Union
an area Of 100000 square miles is sad
to be admirably fitted for agriculture
Underneath the surface of that Won
derful country arc incstimablc hidden
riches, coal, gold and silver, copper,
tungsten and zinc. Oil, asbestos and
platinum have been found there. Fur
bearing animals abound in parts Of
the country. Valuable fisheries are
already established and a great cam
ming industry is already thriving
there with possibilities for the future
which are dazzling. Already it las
amply avenged the opprobr.ous term,
Stewards folly but what Of its fu
ture?
No small task confronts the Pres
ident at home and the matters he will
find pressing on his attention in Alas
ka he will discover, if he already
doesn't know, which is more likely,
are far from inconsiderable. Here arc
some of the features outlined by Sec
rotary Work Of the Interior Depart
ment:
whether the complete jurisdiction
over the whole of Alaska shall be
vested in a single department ul the
Government.
"Whethor colonization and immi
grafton plan shall be Immediately put
into effect.
"Whethcr there shall he built up a
corps of trained men with hCadquar-
tiers in Alaska to search out ANA re-
port regularly upon the mineral re-
sources of the territory.
"Whcther branch lines and spurs
t. the Alaska Railroad shall be con-
structed to bring it into fuller use
fulness in meeting industrial needs.
"Whether there shall be more lIbcr-
al appropriations for the building Of
roads and trails in the interior Of AL
aska. IL regular appropriation OF ST.
100000 annually being asked.
"Whether the fishing industry is to
be wholly checked ana regulated
through the vestng of supreme pow
CT to control it in the Department Of
Commerce.
whether the Government is to
eliminate the dangers Of NAVIGATION
on the coast of Alaska Ivy providing a
sufficient number Of li@hts and other
warnings to naNiGatorS.
"Whethcr steps are 90 be taken to
further protect the seals.
"Whether all laW-cnforciEr aGcn-
cies in the territory shall be consol-
idated under the Department Of Jus
tcc.
"Whcthcr the mining and land laws
of Alaska shall be lib"raliZcd.
"Whethcr improved facilities Tor
travel and commerce to Alaska shall
be put into effect by placing vessels
of the United States Shipping Board
into the Alaskan service.
