ease Old Mr.. Toad looked up at his
cousin Stickytoes had not yet dis

came over Old Mr.. Toad that his cousin
wasn't so well off as he had thought.
You see, Old Mr.. Toad when he had
had that crouch had forgotten that Mr.
BlackSnake could climb. And now
there he was going up In that tree as
easily as he would have run along the
ground. Suddenly Old Mr.. Toad was
filled with great anxiety What would
his Cousin Stickytoes do now? Sticky
toes was still sitting there. calling away
| as If there was no such thing as fear.
Old Mr.. Toad wanted to call out to him
and warn him But he didn't dare do
this. He was paralyzed with fear. Yes.
sir. that was what was the matter with
Old Mr.. Toad
Suddenly Stickytoes broke his call of
right in the middle. He had heard a
rustling He fiattened himself down on
the limb until Old Mr.. Toad could
hardly see him A moment later the
head of Mr.. Blacksnake appeared. He
was coming out along that limb. Old
Mfr. Toad couldn't take his eyes of
that dreadful sight. He knew. he just
knew, he was going to see his cousin
swallowed. He was sure that nothing
could save Stickytoes. He was sure that
there was nothing that Stickytoes could
do. You see. he was, of course, judg-
ing Stickytoes by himself
And then. just at Old Mr. Toad was
sure that the end was at hand. Sticky
toes suddenly made flying leap. 1t
was a wonderful jump. At least it was
wonderful to Old Mr. Toad. He jump
ed across to another branch of that
tree. and it was so far across that the
only way that Mr.. BlackSnake could
possibly get there was to go back to the
trunk of the tree and around. Sticky
toes didn't wait for him to do that.
There was the branch of another tree
just short distance away. Stickytoes
made another splendid Jump and there
he was in another tree.
Old Mr.. Toad actually sighed with
thankfulness. Yes, sir, he sighed with
thankfulness. He wasn't going to see
his Cousin Stickytoes swallowed after
all. And right then and there he lost
his crouch. And right then and there
he forgot to be envious. You see, he
realized that. after all, Stickytoes wasn't
SO much better off than himself He
could dig hole and bury himself and
so escape, while Stickytoes had to jump
for his life.
"I guess" said Old Mr.. Toad to HIM
self, that Mother Nature knows best
after ALL"
And you and I know that Old Mr.
Toad guessed just right.

newspaper had engaged in unwarranted
personal attacks on Herbert Hoover,

worst things published about him have
been the criticisms made before his

Republican party as Senators Borah

STATE DRY LAWS
Tells Radio Audience Change
Is Needed From "Encroach-
ing Federalism"
BY e. Associated Press.

BY t. Associated Press.
Gov. Albert c. Ritchie of Maryland
in an address urging the return of
democracy" broadcast from Station
WMAL, in Washington, and 10 allied
stations, last night, urged the estab-
lishment of State rights as a means
of keeping the Government close to
the people" and declared that the fatal
defect of the prohibition law is that 1t
restricts mems liberty of decision
The term of the State rights is not
now particularly well chosen one, -
Gov. Richie said. "Yet it is the term
that has always been applied to those
who take the side of the States against
the advancing and encroaching Federal
ism of any kind-the side of less gov
eminent against more government.
To-day we are face to face with a
Nation and the States which has been
expanding growth of Federal power at
the expense of the powers and duties
reserved to the States. The struggle is
now for State domain"
Injecting the question of State rights
into the prohibition issue, Gov. Ritchie
said:
Mems grievance against prohibition
is not that 1t restricts their drink, but
that it restricts their liberty of de-
cision to drink or not to drink. 1t
invades a field in which men instinc-
lively feel that their rights of self
government are sovereign.
IF the political mind and ingenuity
Of one State conceives of this or that
possible chance, it can put it to the
test of experiment and the others can
copy If they do not all copy or can
not all agree that is their right, and
should be respected"

HooVer'S work as food administrator

Senator Borah criticized Gov. Alfred

the oil scandals in recent speech at

for acts of a fellow cabinet member was
no more justified than to blame Mr.

Mr.. Hoover is definitely opposed to

Let the miserable individuals who
