 -Unc' Billy Possum. What are you grinning at?'' de- lnanlcd Flip sharply Dowser the Hound grinned more broadly than ever. 50 you think, said he. that some one has carried away that rat
 II don't thing anything about It, ratorted Flip sharply, "1 know, l killed him and left him here, and now he's gone. That ought to be proof enough for anybody"
 Bowscr grinned again. You fol- low me" said he.
 "NThorc arc you going '' demand cd Flip.
 Never mind where I'm goin", you follow Mo." replied BoW&o'. and started Of with that wonderful Ioge of his to the ground. His tail vas wagging and he kept @nltiinS and shifting. Flip put his nose 10 inc ground and sniffcd also. He smcllcd the same scent that he had smclled when he shifted at that big rat he had killed; but he got 1t only faintly and it didn't mean any thing to him. Flip doesn't have suca a wonderful nose as BoWSer the Hound. Straight over toward tn" old stone wall EoWser led the way with Flip right at his heels. BoWsor -l1l D n went straight over 10 the ncare5' apple tree. Then he began to sniff q. the trunk of the apple tree. I thought as much" said he. and looked mp. "There's your biz rat way I'D there" said Rowscr. LOOK up there at that crotch in the tree. . Of course. Flip looked up. Then he rubbed his eyes and looked again. There in the crotch of that tree sal the Billy Pogsum grinning down at him. Flip became excited. "Thal : another one of those big rats.' he parked. "There must have been two of them."
 No" said BoWscr grinning moro broadly than before. Tt is the same enc"
 No such thing" parked Flip. 'I tell you l killed the other one! . killed him and dragged him clea' around the henhou3c. This must b' his mate"
 And l tell you,' replied Bo"scr "Lhat it is the same one. By tn way. that fellow isn't rat at all.
 If he isn't a rat, what is he '' demanded Flip
 That is unc' Billy Possum,' re plicd Bowser. And Unc' Billy h3 iust been fooing you. It vas Unt Billy you caught and this is tnt biIly up here in the tree. You didn' kill him at all. l doubt if you evcl hurt him.

 Every child needs certain amount of attention and the assur- ance of affection. Many women nowadays, not only these who are rich enough 10 keep nurse. but also these who earn money in full time positions outside the home, pay far too little attention to their chil- dren.

Why You Shop Early At Christmas Time

New York. Nov. 9l-Whep you this Yuletide by needing those hu- nane signs, Do your Christmas shopping carly" at least one little thought of gratitude should go to the consumers League, because that organization originated the movement.
 It was an outgrowth Of the New York Consumers Leagues war against the inhuman hiring Of children for the Christmas rush. The National Consumers League took up the fight when Florence Kelley came from Hull House in 1899 to head that organization. This year, celebrating her 30th year of service to the National l Consumers League. Mrs. Kelley recalls those dark days of the nineties when child labor. sweat | shops and low wages made indus try a thing the nation should have | been ashamed of.
 Stores Hired Children
 "In the 90's' Mrs. Kelley re- called the beginning of her 3t years service, the Broadway stores hired tiny children to help with tho Christmas rush. For doormcn therC wee boys wearing olive broadclotl suits with monkey jackets buttonoC from their waists 10 their chin' with shiny buttons. For cash ant bundle boys the smaller the chil dren and the more nimblc thci feet the better could they dasj through the crowded store aisles These children often worked 1 hours day. It was no wonde that the first tno weeks of Jan uary found hospital wards s crowded they had 10 turn sic children away,
 One of our members had little boy who worked go hour during Christmas week.

I never woke in the night that didn't hear the machines. never went { to bed so late that I avoided going to sleep to the throb Of them. That was because children as well as mothers worked on them by dim lamp light often running ] their eyes. as well as their health. i In those days children often slaved at school crocheting, knit 1 ting and sewing, under the hallu- cination that they were receiving instruction.

MARRIAGE? IT'S
JOKE TO GIRL
Wed lust for Fun at 10;
Seeks AnnuIment.

Some joke, this marriage business.
That's what 19-year-old Mary
Stafford thinks of it, and that's
what she asks the superior court to
think it is in her petition for the
annulment of her marriage to
Charles Wishmeier.
The petition says that Mary's
venture into welded bliss was moth
ing but a joke-not the least bit
serious.
She and Wishmejer, who started
keeping company in August, 1925,
joked frequently about getting mar
ried," the petition says.
Just to make it a real good jest
they drove to Franklin one night,
obtained a marriage license, and
were wed.
But didn't understand we were
contracting real marriage" she
insists. Il was thoughtless, i'm
mature, and entertained no serious
thoughts of marriage"
On those grounds, and on the al
legged facts, the couple never lived
together and did not obtain the
consent of Mary's parents, al
though she was under legal mar
riage age, the girl seeks an annul-
ment and the restoration of her
maiden name.
