Bobby Coon Grows Angry
By Thornton w. Burgess

By Thornton w. Burgess
 Disappointment often will
 Make short tempers shorter still.
 Old Mother Nature
 Inside a hollow log crouched Whitefoot the Wood Mouse. It was small log and it was very small hollow. Whitefoot had darted into it through a knothole that was just big enough for him to squeeze through. Its a lucky thing for me that this old log was right handy" said Whitefoot to himself as he pulled his long tail in after him. if'Bobby Coon would have had me. I'm afraid. if this old log hadn't been right here"
 A moment later Whitefoot was by no means sure that Bobby Coon wouldn't have him anyway. Bobby had seen just where he went. He came over to the old log and sniffed at the knothole. Of course, he got his nose full of the scent of Mouse. That scent was so strong that Bobby knew that Whitefoot couldn't be very far inside that hollow log. He suspected that 1t was q small hol- low.
 T wonder if I could pull him out of there. If I can once get my claws into him he'll come out," muttered Bobby.
 < So he thrust in through the knothole one of his paws, which was very like hand. Then he be- gan to feel about. He felt all around very carefully. Once something smooth and round slipped out from under his fingers. He knew what fl was; it was Whitetoot's tail. He knew then that that hollow was so small that Whitefoot was having hard work to keep out of reach Two or three times he felt the touch of fur. but there was nothing he could get hold of. It was very exasperating. Yes, indeed, it was very exasperating He pulled his arm out. Come out of there!' he scommanded. "I'll get you anyway % you may as we'll save me the trouble of pulling you out"
 Of course, Whitefoot didn't come out. He simply tried to make him self smaller than ever. He was ter .ribly frightened. How he did wish that that hollow was just a little bit larger. If he could only have had another inch he would have felt en- tirely safe. How he did wish he could shrink. Yes. Whitefoot was g badly scared little Mouse.
 Bobby Coon reached in with nj. other arm and felt about as before He felt and felt this way and that way. As before, he just touched Nhitefoot once or twice. And ther something happened. Bobby Coor arm out of there in a hurry White foot had bitten one of Bobby's fin. gers. Yes, sir, Whitofoot had aed his sharp little teeth.
 My, such a rage as Bobby Coor flew into. He snarled and srowled
 
 dreadful things to Whitefoot. But Nfitefoot noticed that he didn', put his arm in there again. Ther Bobby began 10 claw at that old log He was irving 10 tear it apart Bu' he soon found he couldn't do this That old log was not old enougf and decayed enough Then he trieG
 
 to roll it over. He thought there might be an opening on the under side. He pulled ard he hauled and hauled and he pulled. As I said be. fore, the log was q small one Bobby found that he could move it II wasn't heavy. Presently it sud denly rolled over so that the knot hole was down against the ground Nhi'efoot was prisoner.
 If I can't get in you can't ge' out growled Bobby Coon. and

WARTIME AIR RAIDS

London, Dec. 2O.-tP>-West and
central London were given startling
reminder Of wartime air raids today
when exploding gas mains caused a
miniature earthquake that heaved up
.ong stretches Of streets and caved IN

The explosions started when a
workman entered q manhole with an
electric blower used to remove foul
air from passages leading into a
large inspection chamber below the
roadway outside of the postoffice

This first explosion was followed
by series of shocks along the street

cover was hurled high into the air
and crashed onto a notorious. Cracks
appeared In the road. wooden blocks
were heaped up and the streets along
which the explosions took place
looked like jagged trench.
The damage extended over more
than mile Of pavement.
The crash OF the explosion was
worse than bombs during air raids
said the occupant of flat nearby
who was blown off his feet.
II thought there had been an ex-
plosion at the base Of the building
which shook like tissue paper" he
said.
Smoke rose to height Of 30 or 40
feet after the first explosion, the
residents Of nearby dwellings dashed
into the streets and fire engines ap-
peared from every direction. Their
services were not greatly needed and
they soon departed.

Chicago, Dec. 2O.-(P,-Quality for

In the grand champion steer of the
International Livestock exposition
a union the beef industry confidently
has awaited as the cornerstone of q
new era.
Dick the yearling Hereford

by Clarence Goecke, a 13-year old
farm boy, to win the highest honors
OF the show. made an average daily
gain OF 234 pounds in weight from
the time he was calved, July q. 1927
The steer Is considered q revelation
in quick production, an essential
economy of the livestock industry.
His flesh is firm, lean and tender, in
dicating the flavor and food value
modern diet demands of beef.
The trend in beef types, SO elo-
quently expressed in the new cham
pion, was presaged a year ago when
California Stamp. owned by the Uni
versity Of California, won the cham
pionship at about the same age and
weight.
The innovation probably received
its most marked impetus in the cor
onation of Rupert B, owned by the
Oklahoma A. and NJ college, in 1926.
At that time the industry was set
thing itself to the serious business of
switching from heavier animals to
the baby beef" The significance of
the change to lighter, younger ami
mails was reflected further in the rec
ord price of $3.50 pound, for which
the champion sold.

for it was cheaper to pasture stock

ranches. where 1t was economical to
carry cattle for several years.
The next IS years found the hostess
setting her table with thick steaks
and sharp knives" The popular beef
was heavy animal, but somewhat

to feed beef. and prizes at the first
