INSURANCE TOO HIGH
Reduction in City Policies to
Be Urged.

Reduction of fire insurance on
several city buildings will be recon-
mended to Mayor L. Ert Slack
cabinet by Oren S. Hack, works
board president.
Hack is making a survey of the
insurance policies on city buildings
with the view of reducing the
amount CT insurance. Saving of
about $4,000 annually in premiums
is contemplated.
1t is likely that the $4,000 policy
on the fireproof municipal garage
adjoining fire headquarters will not
be renewed in September.
Hack said he felt the city should
carry about $4,000 on the garage.
1t is likely that the policy on city
hall will be cut from 100000 to
about $4,000 and the Tomlinson
Hall policy from $4,000 to $4,000.

OF Little Mrs. Peter and his anxiety
about her he would have turned tall
and made straight for the dear Oid
Briar-patch.
But Peter reached the main entrance
to the Chuck's home without any adj
venture. He saw nothing OF sReddy Fox,
although his scent remained strong.
With little sigh Of thankfulness,
Peter poked his head inside the en-
trance. He half expected to md Little
Mrs. Peter just inside. But there was
no one just inside. Peter crept In and
part way down the lower hall. His
nose told him that MRS. Peter had not
been there. His heart sank. He had
counted on finding her there.
"She must have gone to the Old Pas
ture. unless"-Peter didn't finish the
thought. It was too dreadful. With
that strong scent OF Reddy Fox all
about, he knew that Mrs. Peter must
have had to run for her life. He knew
what that meant, for more than once
he had had to run for his life when
Reddy Fox was about.
So 1t was q very anxious Peter Rabbit
who turned and made his way out to
the doorstep of the Chuck's home. and
there sat Tor a rev minutes. Trying 10

The scent of Reddy Fox wasn't as strong
as 1t had been. That meant that Reddy
probably was no longer close at hand.
Probably he had given up Perhaps he
had caught Mrs. Peter. And perhaps
MRS. Peter had reached the Old Pasture
in safety.
1--WE got to find out" said Peter to
himself. I'm go UP to the Old Pasture"
He hoped q few steps In that direction
and then a sudden thought came to
him. He hadn't once signaled to Mrs
Peter There was chance. just q wee
chance, that she might be within hear
ing distance. Peter thumped with his
stout hind feet. Almost Immediately
voice close behind him said. '"Oh, Peter,
Tn so glad you've comet"
Peter was SO startled that he made
a flying leap before he thought. Then
he turned to see Little Mrs. Peters head
in the midst of l.eeSie patch Of rather
tall grass. She was sitting In an en-
trance to the back hall Of that Chucks
home, 1t was back doorway Peter
had known nothing about. She had
been hiding there ever since she had
escaped from Reddy Fox. II Peter
hadn't thumped when he did she
wouldn't have known that he was near.

Positive benefic aspects will rule to-

1t is read as day favorable to those

fortunate for those who struggle.
Weddings on this date should be
lucky, making for prosperity and a

Lovers should benefit and the Mid

serious than Is usual during the silly

Under this sway young men probably
will not be so susceptible as those of
greater age. Many widowers become
sentimental under this direction of the
