Well, Bobbie Redvest has just stop
ped talking over the phone, so now
I'm COINS to tell you, as / promised
in the last story, what is that dread
full thing that happened at Uncle
Lucky's red-shingled house on the
corner of Lettuce Avenue and Carrot
Street. But before / commence let
me say quickerty quick that this dear
little bird whispered that he and Mrs.
Bobbie Redvest were building a COM
Portable nest In the old apple tree
near the Big Red Barn.
And now, as I've kept you waiting
SO long, I'll hasten to tell you what
the two little rabbits saw as they
neared the front gate of Uncle Lucky's
home. The red brick chimney had
fallen down and smashed the little
! porch all to pieces. Wasn't that a
shame? And the croquet box, which
always stood right under the window,
was broken open and all the balls
scattered over the front lawn.
"Oh dear. and oh dear, and maybe
a good cry behind my blue silk polk
adot handkerchief" exclaimed poor
Uncle Lucky, as he hoped around
to the kitchen door, for he couldn't
get in the front way, you see, because
the loose chimney bricks were all
piled up just outside the door. "Oh
dear, and oh dear" again sighed the
Unhappy old gentleman rabbit, my
nice red chimney! What will Little
Miss Mousie say when she returns
from her visit to Miss Woody
Mouse"
I'll build a new one" barked the
friendly Yellow Dog Tramp. who you
remember had sung a song in the
last story. and who shall remain in
this one. l promise you, until he
mends that chimney, for it does a
tramp good to work once a year, and
sometimes little oftener.
"That's nice of you," cried relieved
Uncle Lucky. hopping over to the tool
house for his tall ladder.
AS soon as the Yellow Dog Tramp
had mixed the mortar, a kind of
sandy paste with which to stick to-
gether bricks, he climbed up to the
roof and waited for Little Jack Rab-
bit to bring up the loose bricks. Good
ness me. but the little bunny had a
job carrying up all those bricks.
Now bring me some red paint"
said the Yellow Dog Tramp when the
| chimney was all put together again,
"I'll make 1t look just like new
Hold on" shouted dear Uncle
Lucky. "Ive some white and blue

FOR SELECTION SERVICE LAW

ITO teach that war is horrible,
wasteful and criminal is right. To
teach that war is to be resorted to
only as final recourse Is humanity
and wisdom. To teach that war is
to be avoided at any cost-cost of
home, of honor and Of virtues to
teach decadency and degeneracy."
In these words General H. e. Ely
prefaced his recent address In advo-
cacy Of the American Legions
Selective Service Law, which he
declares should be enacted in time of
peace when the passions. and haste
of the wartime are not dominant
Under this there would be made
available not only the man-p power
but also the material the money
power. the factories, the commodities
for defense, the arms and munitions,
in short all that would be needed
for such q war. Capital would be
diverted into channels where needed
there would be no ship-yard strikes,
no ring-theoretically. Any
one. at all acquainted with the flaws
in Government management of utili-
ties during the war. should know that
all this would fall far short of the
theory.
Indeed, the cumbersomeness of an
attempt to mobilize all men and
material in time of war would be
appalling. The only way by which
1t might be made possible would be
to have men trained in the manage
ment while yet there is time. No
one wishes to see the best physical
specimens of our youth put into the
trenches and those in some slight
degree defective as to physical de-
velopment permitted to go about
doing as they might please and seek
ing profit from the work, which war
entails on a people engaged In 1t.
Moreover. it might help to dampen
ardor for war were all subject to
draft, those who would profiteer as
well as those who would sacrifice.

THE STRAW VOTE ON PRoHiBi.
TON

We venture the opinion that most
any individual, who gives the matter
serious consideration, will not ar
rive at the conclusion these straw
votes on prohibition really amount to
q pinch Of snuff.
There Is no lack of logic for ar
irving at such conclusion but the
Board of T., P. & p. NJ. of the M. e,
Church cites instances. such as in a
Pennsylvania church audience OF
EOS only one person was found to
have voted in one Of these news
paper polls. and out of a Washington
Bible class Of Is but one man had
voted. The Literary Digest poll OF
Ohio in 1922 showed 25.511 against
prohibition to 20,285 for 1t, but two
months later the State gave a
majority Of 49, 472 against wine and
beer. Similar results occurred in
California and Michigan with straw
vote in opposition to prohibition
refused to legalize the sale of wine
and beer by a majority of 207,520.
The facts are not encouraging SO
the fmaginations of the "wets" are
diverted from consideration of these
It seems. Right at the beginning
they start out on the false premise
that Notwithstanding wine and beer
may be made and sold to the salts
faction Of the thirsty. Under the
Constitution all intoxicating liquor is
forbidden as beverage. Wine and
beer incapable of producing intoxi-
cation surely would satisfy nobody
even assuming that the present
half Of one per cent is not "a fair
percentage. The real question al
issue is whether the Eighteenth
Amendment should be repealed; the
wine and beer talk is camouflage.
