Then how comes it," said Peter
that you never have dug Striped
Chipmunk out?''N
For a very good reason-a most ex-

Peter looked puzzled. He was puz-
zled. He scratched a long ear with a
long hind foot. He scratched the other
long ear with the other long hind
foot He would have scratched both
long ears with both long hind feet if
he could have. But he couldn't, so he
asked q question. You know Peter is
great on asking questions. What is
the matter with your claws that you
can't dig out Striped Chipmunk?" he
asked.
Nothing is the matter with my
claws but I'm afraid something would
be the matter with them If | started
digging out Striped Chipmunk."
81 don't see why" protested Peter,
looking more and more puzzled.
Because" replied Digger, Striped
Chipmunk makes his home in rocky
ground. He knows quite well that he
is safe there Now his cousin, out
where l came from, Seek Seek the
Ground Squirrel, dug right in the open
where it was honest digging. There
were no stones there, so sometimes IL
was fun to dig for him. You know
that little rascal has pockets in his
cheeks just the same as Striped Chip
munk. I've heard him called Gopher

table standards. If you have an old
carriage umbrella canopy you can
adapt it to lawn purposes. Perhaps
the easiest way TO do this is TO drive
a piece of pipe into the ground far
enough to be firm when the handle of
the umbrella is thrust down the hole
in the top Of the pipe, and the UNI
brella is opened. To further secure
such an improvised lawn umbrella
ropes may be fastened TO some of the
ribs and to staples driven in the
ground as for tent fastenings. Under

Police are continuing their seizure
Of newspapers throughout tho soun-

going to have a difficult time in
suppressing extremists in the fas-

OF extremists, 1t was said.

with the rumor of hidden arms wos

France to fight fascism.
The extremists in the fascist
party are urging Mussolini to meet
the situation with an iron hani.
An attempt will be made to create
