q hy David Cory,

"Now, I'll tell the secret" promised
the Ragged Rabbit Giant, leaning
against the Bunnymobile as he seat
ed himself on the ground and
stretched out his great long legs.
Goodness me, l hope he won't crush
Uncle John Hares nice automobile!
Some time ago." he began slowly,
taking off his immense hat and run
ming his great hand through his long
curly hair, II told the Circus Ele-
plant I'd build him comfortable
log cabin in my forest if he'd do me
a favor. I'll PROMISE answered that
good old animal-'that is, if 1t does
MT interfere with my performance in
Uncle Lucky's circus. I couldn't do
anything to which he wouldn't agree.
No. stree. For Uncle Lucky's too
good to me-"
az wouldn't expect you to- an
swered. Mr.. Lucky Lefhindfoot is a
good friend of mine. Why. 1 have a
lot of money in his bank in Rabbit
WILLIE"
Don't explain further quickly
replied the Circus Elephant. Tell me
what you want me to do.
Then l told him l had found a
baby elephant. Maybe it had strayed
from a travelling circus, or perhaps
it had fallen out of circus car. At
any rate, l asked him to take care OF
it. And as soon as l had finished the
log cabin, brought the baby ele-
plant over here. Yes, 1 carried 1t
all the way from my castle on the
Tiptop, Skyhigh Mountain"
AS the Ragged Rabbit Giant finish
ed, the little rabbit, with shout,
hoped over to the log cabin to
knock on the door with his red
striped candy cane. The next min
ute the Circus Elephant, broad
smile beaming all over his face
turned the knob. With a hop-tee-idy
the bunny boy jumped right in the
middle of the room. There at a table
sat the baby elephant a bib tucked
under his chin and a big bowl Of
cereal in front of him.
'Ha. ha" laughed the big Circus
Elephant, turning to the little rabbit,
whose eyes We're nearly popping out
of his head, there's our little secret.
Watch him eat cereal. A bushel a
day makes him frisky and gay. He's
a good little chap and at noon takes
a nap. He'll be husky and strong
before very long"

A wonderful work was begun Al
years ago in a Portland church, a
work designed by the Rev. Francis
e. Clark for local needs. The sue
cess attending it resulted in the or
ganization Of the United Society OF
Christian Endeavor of which Doctor
Clark served as the head since 1887
until his resignation the other day,
though with vigor unimpaired and
with purpose to continue to serve
the organization to which he so long
devoted himself. Few are so priv
ileged to enjoy the fruitage of life
work. the activities of which en-
brace the world.

IN. Y. world)
In the United States District Court
at Cheyenne, Judge T. Blake Ken

from presenting evidence concerning
the Continental Trading Company
deal and the transfer of over 100000
in Liberty. bonds to former Secretary
Falls account in Western banks.
On Feb. 26 Judge Kennedy refused
to grant a motion by Government
counsel for postponement Of the trial
in order to allow them time to OBJ
tain this evidence. Legal proceed
ings were then pending in France to
obtain the testimony of Blackmer
and O'Neil; and Justice Riddell of
the Supreme Court at Toronto had
ruled that Osler must answer ques-
lions relating to the Continental
Trading Company propounded by
counsel for the United States Gov
eminent, but Osler had sailed for
Africa Ito hunt big game" When
the Teapot Dome case came to trial
at Cheyenne in March. Judge Ken
nedy threw out such evidence as the
Government introduced. Shortly at

turned to Canada. Judge Kennedy
having rendered his decision last

ISN'T IT TIME TO TAKE HoLp'

The berry season is with us. If one
goes out for berries and finds others
busily engaged in picking. the
promptings of instinct, If not of rea-
son, would seem to be to hustle up
and get ones share.
There's that, and here's this: What
Is being done by Augusta to secure
its rightful share in the esteem and
accompanying patronage of the sea-
sonal visitors from out of the State?
First. 1t should be said, we have
good stores carrying good stocks,
with managers disposed to deal fair
ly, but Is that enough?
Other communities do not think so.
Right now, all over Maine. an in
spired effort is being made with more
earnestness and enthusiasm than
usual to attract visitors. to treat
them Hospitality, to make them wish
to come again. There is abroad a con-
viction that it must not be left to
natural advantages alone and Au-
gusta has those beyond question
but there must be work done by civic
bodies, such as a Chamber Of Com
MERGE. Prospective visitors must be
sought. inquiries for information
must be promptly answered. the tray
cling public must be convinced that
1t is no trouble to the community to
show goods.
Is Augusta doing what she should
in these respects? Are we to depend
upon volunteers for the doing Of this,
or are we all of us to consider 1t our
obligation-as well as privilege-to
get into the gamer" Are we salts
fed, for instance. with what we are
rather are not-doing toward making
convenient and attractive over
night camping ground for auto
parties? That is but one instance,
though it serves to illustrate. We
have been hearing complaints re-
specting other lack of activities, such
as usually are subject to the func-
tons Of Chamber of Commerce.
We are informed that, in the rooms
recently occupied by what was the
Chamber Of Commerce. mail has been
collecting for weeks. 1t is said that
much Of 1t is personal matter which
concerns everyone of us. for there
have been inquiries from all ever the
United States relative to Augusta
and what 1t has to offer. While some
of these letters have been answered
by willing workers, we are told there
has been no systematic effort to care
for this mail.
We know of no community with a
more really dependable public senti-
ment than has this city Of Augusta
when it takes hold" We don't know
Of any reason why a few citizens
should be expected to bear the burden
or assume the obligations. We don't
know Of any good reason why each
and all of US should not feel that we
have some obligation in this matter.
Isn't it high time" to give consid-
Grafton to this matter? We have been
in a way to hear of late many sug-
gestions to the effect that 1t is almost
mast time

Louis John Taber of Columbus, o.,
Master of the National Grange, will
come to Maine Saturday, August 20,
to address the members of the Cum
berland County Pomona at a field
day at Stroudwater, which will be
held under the auspices of the Strout-
water Grange. The members of the
Cumberland County Pomona hope to
so impress National Master Taber
with the beauties of this section of
Maine and the facilities here for en-
tertaining the visitors that he will
advocate the holding of the next Ma
tional Grange session in Maine.
Should the sessions of the National
Grange come to Maine, they would
probably be held in Portland on ac-
count of its hotel accommodations
and it's accessibility from all points.
At the annual session of the State
Grange in Maine last December reso-
lutions were adopted asking the Ma
tional Grange to come to Maine for
its 1926 convention. ssThe resolutions
originally specified Portland but were
afterward amended so as to make the
invitation apply to the entire state
rather than specific city.
