UNCLE wIGGILY's SURPRISE


Uncle Wiggily had been surprised
many times in his life, but the time
You are going to hear about now was
enc of the worst. There are jolly
good surprises and then there are
surprises which aren't so nice, such
as when YOU lose your nickel when
you're on your way to the candy
store.
One dav Uncle Wiggily came out
Of his hollow stump bungalow and
looked all around before starting off
over the fields and through h G
woods to seek an adventure. Rab-
bits and other animals always look
around when coming out Of their
homes. and, just because he lived in
q hollow stump bungalow, with a
chimney on the roof, did not make
Uncle Wiggily different from any
other rabbits.
Yes, I must look around, be-
fore l stop hopping, 10 see that there
j. no danger in the way said I'm
rie Wiggily as ne stood on his front
steps. So he looked and then he
shifted and snuffed with his pink,
twinkling nose. For that is another
way animals have of finding dan
ger-by smelling for il.
'Well, / guess everything is all
right, said Uncle Wiggily to himself
when be could neither see nor smell
danger, And l hope all my little
rabbit boys and girls and Baby
Bunty. the orphan, are now safely
in the Hollow Stump School reriting
their lessons to the Lady Mouse
Teacher" "
Mr.. Longears hoped to the ground
end then he hoped around his bun
gaiow. There were half a dozen
paths, or runways, by which Uncle
Wiggilv could leave his bungalow 10
jet 10 the fields or woods where
there Were adventures. Uncle Wig
Gily could have taken any one OF
xix paths. For YOU know animals arr
not like real folk. There may be on'
or two paths 70 your house, from
walk and side walk.
Put this would never do for rah
bits or other wild creatures. The.
laust have more than one way 0

EXPECT B|G VOTE
 IN VIRGINIA TODAY
Wet.lry Issue and Party Loyal.
 ty Fight Loom

Richmond, Va, Aug. P}-A wet dry issue in the eighth congression- al district and an argument over party loyalty in the fifth were ex- pected to bring a larger tn an usual number of voters to the polls today in those areas for the democratic primary.
 Only three congressman will be nominated by the party today.
 Senator Carter Glass of Lynch burg. who comes up for reelection this year, was unopposed within the party, and five democratic incum- bent congressman also have no pri- mary opposition.
 In the ninth district, the home district of Bascom Slemp, republi- can national executive committee man from Virginia, John w. Flanna- gan was nominated in convention in May. In the seventh John W. Fish burne, a former circuit judge, was declared nominated by the district executive committee when no oppo- sition developed for the primary.
 Small Interest shown
 In the second district, where the third of the races is taking place today, little interest has been mani fest.
 Five persons are seeking the seat vacated by Congressman R. Walton Moore, in the eighth. Senator Frank l.. Ball declared by the Anti Saloon league to be satisfactory is the only one of the group that came out in the campaign on a strictly dry platform. The others are Howard W. Smith, a former circuit judge, Thomas R. Keith, law partner of the retiring congressman, Crandall Mackey and E. E. Dejarnette. Party leaders predicted a heavy vote in the district, especially the northern portion.
 Joseph Whitehead, the incumbent in the fifth, has been challenged by his opponent. Thomas G. Burch, with the assertion that he was luke warm" for Alfred l.. Smith in the 1928 presidential campaign and also for John Garland Pollard in the gubernatorial campaign.
 The three seeking nomination in the second are former Congressman Joseph T. Deal Mrs. Sarah Lee Fain, and delegate W. W. Nellines.

Her aunt, Miss Morley he'd given her an old chest, a little writing bureau, and a tall, old fashioned mirror. Out of her small allowance she had bought two wicker chairs. cushions for them, and a jar or two of pottery for flowers She had the artists capacity for imparting beauty to the simplest things; and the sun came into the room in the after noon.
 It was about five o'clock when Judy got back. She must have been later than she thought at Storna- ways. Her dancing practice had been very trying that morning. She had had practically no lunch, and she felt ready to drop. Her five senses seemed to have failed her, so that she was almost up to the writing table near the window be- fore she realized that the room was not empty.

 Stornaway and his guest came into the room, but they stopped behind the screen. Judy gathered that the artist was showing Gideon a piece of his work. All the canvases were al the other end of the studio.
 She was just going to Sall out to them when her own name fell on her ears.

The Miniature Golf Course.
(New York Herald Tribune.)

One of the unique things about Americans IS their capacity for sudden and unpredctable change in small things as in larger ones. For a striking example witness the Tom Thumb golf courses which have sprung up like mushrooms all over the place.
 The miniature golf course has appeared so fast and so ubiquitously that it is unnecessary to tell any one what it is. Who has not young and old industriousy putting balls around gaudily decorated vacant lot9 Who, motoring peacefully in the dead of night has not wandered about g it was a miniature golf brilliantly lighted who is not fascinated by the little artificial moun- tains and the diminutive rivers and lakes, with their diminutive bridges?
 It is not. subject requiring description. But it is a subject deserving explanation. The idea of a miniature course is simple one and ap- parently lucrative one, too Why was it not thought of before? Why, all of sudden in the year of grace 1930 should it appear all at il, full bloom? Why not in 1881 in 1923? Why did they not appear bit by bit that might have become used to them? Finally, who is the genius who said to himself: T shall the United States with Thom Thumb golf courses night?'
 It is said that they so popular that attend Iance at motion picture theatres has been affected by them They are certainly healthful and whole some sources of entertainment The player is out doors and derives a certain amount of exercise Only praise seems due them But how and why did they happen? Let it be agreed that thei eruption is a symptom of health. What factors determined that the public body should take thi sudden interest in outdoor fun? Will the expert in psychology please answer?

THE LESSON OF GERMANY.

The lesson of Germany and the efforts Of all the civilized countries to save her from bankruptcy as a Government and people is that wise countries protect their customers and help to cause good times throughout the world It is convincing - argument in favor of freer trade among peoples everywhere. It is impossible for a country to prosper when hard times expressing the other countries as it is for individual, no matter what his vocation, to prosper when depression is holding down all others within his field of opera tions
 During the period of heat and passion when war ragged many of the French thought pros trate and helpless Germany would be good thing. When the work of rehabtating their country became the matter of first concern. the French discovered that France could not prosper with Ger many and other Eourpean countries bankrupt, and the prejudices and passions engendered by war were set aside. No country thrive on isolation
