A I0Y JOKE By Mary Graham Bonner

By Mary Graham Bonner
 Peggy adored riding the rocking horse in the big, oldfashioned play room where the Little Black Clock had brought them.
 John had a ride too, but it was when Peggy was riding the rocking horse that she heard the joke he had to tell.
 Tt just amuses me so much" the rocking horse said, going backward and forward, and laughing in 2 funny, hollow voice. It was just the sort of voice a rocking horse should have and quite, quite dif- ferent from the voice of a real horse.
 I'll explain" the rocking horse continued "A few years ago I was so very popular. Everyone loved me. You can see that from lthe uneven way my tail looks.
 Now everyone might not think than that was a proof of great af- lection, but rocking morse knows it is.
 They used to stroke my tail so often that it became bit uneven some of the hairs were pulled out through affection and love.
 They loved to ride me and loved to have them. But then more and more of those toy auto mobiles and motor trucks came into the playroom and they became so proud.
 Poor rocking -horse' they used to say to me, when we toys were talking among ourselves, poor rock ing horse. You can only go back ward and forward when some one rides you. We only have to bt wound up and we can go all around l the room
 And now! Now!" The rocking horse laughed some more. "The mo- tor trucks and the toy automo- piles aren't nearly so popular as the toy planes which will fly 'rounc the room so those proud, snobbisf auto toys are quite put in the back ground, and I'm just where I was all along"
 And the Rocking Horse felt hap pier than ever for John and Peggy rode and rode. They didn't go any distance at all. But what did il matter? They were moving back ward and forward all the time!

KEEPING GLACIER HIGHWAY OPEN.

The decision of the Bureau of Public Roads to keep Glacier Highway open during the coming VIII ter will be hailed with glee by those who i've along it and by those in Juneau who furnish them "iVh their supplies. It is true, as MT Wlihams saio' settlement has made it almost imperative that Vhe road be kept open for winter traffic Fur Iarhers' dairymen and others are located along the road who must be supplied and whose children must attend school if the cost is not prohbitive
 The lack of winter communication has caused people who live on Glacier Highway severe handi- caps in the past, and there will be thanksgiving that they are to escape similar experiences in the future.

 Although It is generally agree that under resolution adopted few years ago, Acting Comptroller Bliss W.
