UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
ING REEDS

Merry were the little bunnies in
Uncle Wiggily hollow stump bun
galow. They hopped about, they
frisked about, they leaped about
Jingle and Jangie, Tooter and
Scooter, Baby Bunty and all the
others. For it was still the season
of the Christmas holiday and there
was no school, Uncle Wiggily sat
in his easy chair, looking from the
window now and then to watch the
wind blow the snow in swirling
clouds across the fields, and he
listened to the jolly shouts and
laughter of the little rabbits.
But Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy. the
muskrat lady housekeeper, came
into the room. carrying her hat i'll
one paw and looking sad.
"What is the matter. Nurse
Jane - asked Uncle Wiggily. Did
some of the children sit on your
hat and crush it: For it looks as
if something had happened 20 1t.

went on the voice. - am the big
Snow Owl, and | swoopcd down too
hard in these reeds, and they are
now so tangled about me that l can
not get out. Please get me loose
from the reeds. -
Uncle Wiggily hoped nearer and
there he saw the Owl, whose fcath-
ers were as white as snow, tangled
in the reeds. Carefully the bunny
gentleman helped free the big bird.
On her great wings She rose III the
air, not trying to eat Uncle Wig
gly, as some owls might have
done. And on the ground, as the
owl flew away. the bunny saw
MANY white feathers that the great
bird had beaten loose from her
wings and she tried to free herself
and fluttcr out.
"Oh, may | have these feathers =
asked Uncle Wiggily.
Certainly. - hooted the owl.
'They dropped from my wings. /
don I want them.
II shall take them home to
Nurse Jane said the bunny as hc
gathered them up. And that is how
the muskrat lady had new feathers
on her hat for Aunt Lettic 5 New
Year 5 party. And very beautiful
was the east off plumagc of the

PARIS, Dee. GA learned
judge of Dijon, after meditating at
great length and consulting divers
legal authorities, has ruled that a
minor female child can 90 TO Il bar.

that the barber that administers
unto her does not commit assault in
cutting hr hair and is not liable to
damages.
The case made scissors snip with
indignation all over France. Little
Mile. talaisc, H. wanted to be in
the mode SO she went to M. Soret,
coifteur, and paid him the proper
fee for cutting off her long, flowing,
golden hued eurls.
She went proudly home, but at
sight of her shaved neck her father
was stricken with grief and indig-
nation. He sued the coiffeur for
assault and damages on grounds that
his daughter was "a minor and incap-
able of guiding her own destiny and
deciding when and how she should
have her hair cut.
The BARRIERS Federation of
France rushed to NJ. Soret's de
Tense and built up Il strong ease
around the rights and duties of a
tonsorial practitioner. They argued
that If a girl cannot decide when
she should have her hair cut, no
more can a boy decide to have the

state OF things was to come about,
they would have to ask 40 many
questions as an old-time American

TWO VIEWS OF AIR ARMAMENT

A London dispatch recently told of the British
air ministrys intention to postpone fufillment of the
present air defense program view of the clearer and
more peoceful European skies resulting from the Lo-
carno agreements.
"If other nations follow this example," the head
of the air ministry is quoted as saving call the gov
ernments will be enabled to avoid in the wears to come
in ornaments far more dstrous than the world
has ever endured"
About the time dispatch from Paris quot
ed the speeches Of French deputies urging intensified
aerial development. One speaker said:
"1n the face of the German preparation with
which we are familiar, and the activities of the other
powers, our best defense and best answer will be
in intensification of aerial DEVELOPMENT This
expansion will be of the most marvellous asnects
of our econmlc expansion and only add to the i'm
pOrtance Of our country
The dispatches present strange contrast. Eng
land is determined to keep her feet financially and
is therefore looking out for opportunities to reduce
military expenditures and money. France is still
fearful, and in spite of her exceedingly precarous fl
nancal position goes ahead voting greater military
expenditures.
1t is easy to understand Frances mighty fear
But it is also difficult condemn that countrvs
mistakes of judgment and policy. France has not al
ways helped herself as wisely she might have since

help her.
