squirrel boy picked up the apple
core. "You don t mean to tell me
that yOu and your mother and sister
are so hungry that you are glad 70
get apple seeds, are you?"
"'Indeed we are" answered the
squirrel boy. ''Wc are very poor
and very hungry. Ny father died
and we had TO move away from our
fine house in the oak tree. There
we had many nuts stored away.
But the wind that blew the tree
down killed my father and scatter
ed the nuts we were saving. Then
my mother and my sister and ]
came 10 these woods to live. But
there are no nuts here and viii be
none until autumn, so we have to
eat bark, buds and what few ber-
ries we can find. Apple seeds are
almost as good as nuts. III take
these home to my mother and sister
if you don t mindl' -
''Of course don T mindl' cried
Uncle Wiggilv. And, what is
more, my little squirrel boy. III
get you lot more apple seeds -
"Oh, will you?' .joyfully chatter
red the boy, whose name was Quirk
or, because of the funny way he
quirkcd his tail to one side.
" Yes, answered Uncle Wiggily
" Show me where YOU live and
will soon bring q lot of apple seeds
to your home. Then | II see my
friends, Johnnie and Billie Bushy-
tail, and get them to bring you some
of their nuts, which they have stor-
ed away since last year.
"'Oh, how kind Of you!' chatter
ed Quirkcr.
He scamnered on ahead and Tn
cle Wiggily, hopping after him,
saw where the poor squirrel family
lived. Then, hopping back 10 his
hollow stump bungalow, Uncle Wig
gily got his pocket full of apple
seeds.
You will wonder how he could get
so many, so | will tell you. Nurse
Jane was making apple pies that
day. AS she did not use the cores
or seeds of the apples, she laid them
to one side. SO there were plenty
of apple seeds for Uncle Wiggily.
FI'll take these seeds to the poor
squirrels,' he said to his muskrat
lady as he hopped away, one pocket
as full as it would hold of brown

nuts.
Uncle Wiggily was hopping
through the woods when, all of q
sudden, out from behind bush
inmped the Fuzzy Fox, standing in
the middle Of the path so the bun
ny couldn t go any farther.
"Let me pass, if you please,
begged the rabbit.
"Not until l nibble your ears! y
SNAPPED the Fox.
Uncle Wiggily put his paw in
his pocket and took ont an apple
seed. Slyly he wet it on his tongue,
making the apple seed very slippe-
ry. Then, pinching the apple seed
in his paw, the bunny shot it, like
bullet out of a pop gun, in the
left eye of the Fox.
Wowch! OWL howled the Fox,
clapping n paw over his eye.

JAPANESE EXCLUSION

The immigration law does not really slam the door
in Japans face as hard as some of the comments on
that subject have seemed to imply In his statement
made when he signed the BILL President Coolidge took
pains to explain, perhaps for the special benefit of
Japanese jngoes
''It should be noted that the bill exempts from the
exclusion provision government officials, those
ing to the country tourists temporarily for busi
pleasure those in transit seamen, those already
resident here and returning from temporary absences
professors ministers or religion, students, and those
who enter solely to carry on trade in to
listing treaty provisions.''
This is fairly broad. 1t does not keep out any
class that has been admitted heretofore under the
gentlemen's agreement 1t bars only the lower-cass
japanese who already barred under the agreement
merely making their exclusion definite and en-
phatc. 1t is a change not of matter but of manner
Thousands of American have agreed that it may
be unvse unfortunate to do the thing in this par
tlcuar Perhaps it is. Yet it is possible that
the japanese themselves, after little will realize that
they have not really lost any privileges they possessed
and that the American people, apparently harsh, do
not really feel any i'll will toward them.

AROUI OUR FLAG

It grieves US greatly to have to admit it, but most
Of the flags displayed hereabouts on Decoration Day
were placed incorrectly" Far be it from to criti
cize those who were patriotic enough to hang out the
red, white and blue on this day Of memoirs, for the
number was all too few for town of this size. During
days practically every house had it's flag waving
triumphantly, and surely there is now why
such should not be the case patriotic holiday.
But to get back to the wrong hanging of the flag.
In the first place, all flags Memorial Day should
be at half mast until noon, after which time they fly
full mast until sunset. In this connection there is
right and wrong way to hang flag at half mast
The correct method sdo hoist it brsky to full mast
and then lower slowly to hafmast Besides Memorial
Day. it also flown at half mast upon official orders
from national or civic Organizations and locally upon
orders from heads Of organizations and business con-
Germs. (i ' d'7htr.
The trouble with most of US is that are liable
to get the field of the flag in the wrong corner The
following rules are embodied in the Boy Scout Manual
for the proper handling of the American flag and
may well be followed by many of us next time we hang
up Old Glory, which will probably be Fourth OF July:
When displaying the American flag against dead
wall flat surface the following rules cover the dis
play IN 2 Ee2a& @@A -
When hung so that the stripes are perpendicular
the field appears at the.upper right hand corner
When hung that the stripes are horizontal the
field should be in the upper left hand corner.
When hung so that both sides are equally visible,
public square street, across large
hallway auditorium, the field should always be
either to the north east, according to the way in
which the supporting ropes are strung
When displayed with a. flag of another country
organization the American flag always has the other
on its left-the right, of the5behoder.
When displayed platform the flag is placed
at the speakers right hand side.
In displaying flag in window, porch, or
the outside of building, it should be remembered
that is placed there for the benefit of the passerby
When hanging flag in such position this fact
should be kept in mind so that the flag may not be in
correctly hung.
If in window porch, it will appear in
correctly hung when viewed from the inside but to
the passerby the flag will be in its proper position.
The should be taken in displaying two flags
crossed in window. The flags when correctly placed
and viewed from the interior will have the American
flag the right side and the other on the left This
would be Incorrect of if it not for the fact
that the flags placed in the window for the benefit
of those passing on the outside.
When carried with number Of other flags
in parade pageant, the American flag should
either be borne ahead of the others in the center.
If, however, there is only other flag, the Ameri
fage has the place fhonor on the right having the
flag of the other country, organization state its
left.
