Dear me, Little Reader, hope poor,
anxious Uncle Lucky finds DR.. Quack
in this story. It has taken him so
long that Buster Bear may grow
worse. and then what would we do?
Well, anyway, as the old gentleman
rabbit hoped down the path to the
Luckysnowbile, in which the bunny
boy was waiting for him, who should
come waddling down the sidewalk
but the famous duck doctor him.
self. Hello, hello! Come here, come
here!" shouted the worried old gen.
tleman rabbit. 81 want to take you
to the Cosy Cave. The Big Brown
Bears little Buster is i'll with the
whooping cough. "
Without waiting to even reply, the
nice old duck doctor jumped into the
Sledmobile and away sped Uncle
Lucky, happy at finding the good
duck doctor, but anxious to take him
quickly to the house of the Big Brown
Bear. My how fast slid the little red
sleds. Anxious Uncle Lucky was
speeding the Sledmobile right up to
the limit, and pretty soon, though 1t
seemed mighty long, they reached the
Winding Trail that led through the
Shady Forest. Past the Tall Pine
Tree they rushed, not stopping to
answer Professor Jim Crows friendly
"Caw. cav, caw!" Past the Big
Chestnut Tree in a hollow limb of
which Squirrel Nutcracker and fam
ily were costly housed. Past the
frozen Forest Pond in which Busy
Beaver had built house, the mud
roof of which rose above the top OF
the water and the front door opened
way down deep below the freezing
line. Past bush and stump. rocks
and boulders, until, by and by. the
Sledmobile stopped right in front OF
the Cosy Cave door.
AS Uncle Lucky hoped out of the
| Sledmobile, the Big Brown Bear
peered anxiously through the win
dow. The next minute he ran out
and throwing his front paws around
the old gentleman rabbit, nearly
squeezed the breath out of him
"Please, please be gentle" gasped
GREATNESS Uncle Lucky. Here's the
doctor. How is Buster? Dear, Oh
dear, I'm all a fluster!"
without waiting for an answer
wise DR.. Quack waddled into the
cave. On a nice bed of leaves lay
the little bear, Mrs. Bear and Boun-
der, his small brother, sitting close
beside him.
"Show me you tongue" cried DR.
Quack the first thing. "Ah, ha," he
uuacked. I know what's the matter

A QUESTION SUGGESTED

The professor of philosophy at
Columbia University, Rev. Cornelius
Clifford, referring to the Tennessee
rumpus over evolution. is quoted
as saying: Bryan was a good man,
but not wise one. He did more
harm to religion among thousands of
so-called fundamentalists than can
be calculated, since he preached only
the terrible alternative of a literal
Interpretation of Genesis and black
infidelity."
Come to think Of it. whether we
agree or not with the learned mans
conclusion respecting Bryan, what a
lot Of trouble has been caused in the
world by those who insist on their
own definition between saints and
sinners, between those who believe
with them and those who don't.
Wars and rumors Of wars bark back
to 1t. We are not doing to Einstein
rs Calico was done by, but there are
some, who. seem to think the world
would be better If 1t turned back to
the old ways.
Once It was thought necessary in
politics to declare ones opponents
knaves and blackguards. There is
yet extant desire to do this and to
hear 1t done. There are many of us,
who seem to insist that it shall be
done. We yearn for crusade in
place of Locarno, though we would
hesitate to dispute that blessed are
the peacemakers. Is 1t because we
are conscious Of our own weakness
and wish to protect ourselves lest
1--WE first endure. then pity then en-
brace" that which is evil?

It matters not what unknown fate
The future holds for me-
It matters not, If every day
find Some task to do
That sows the seeds of happiness
Where pain or heartache grew.
We should not measure life alone
BY checking of the miles,
But while we live our little day
Let's count the friendly smiles
That mark our path, and let's be so
Considerate and kind
That love will shed it's radiance
On those we leave behind.
