UNCLE WIGGILY AND BETTY 8
COME

"Come, Bobby Come Bettyl"
called Mrs. RiEgt@il, the raccon
mother, one morning. ''lt is time
you started for school,''
AN right, mother! - answered
Bobby. In his cute little paws.
which were almost like hands, he
caught up tlia books and was
dashing OF: Of the door, when his
mother said:
"Oh, Bobby! You aren't going
to school without combing your
hair, are you?'
"No MI mumblcd B BIB Y.
Quickly he ran one paw through
his short hair, making it stand up
even more than it h..d been loing,
and then, pulling on his cap, away
rushed the little raccoon chap.
"Oh, bat Bobby. Your hair ism t
half combed!' his mother cried.
My cap will slick ]: down by
the lime l get TO SCHOOL," called
back Bobby.
Mrs. Rinrtail sighed and then she
said: ''Come, Betty, let me see if
your hair is all right before you
go to school.

The amendment would change the Presidents
