Yesterday was Fathers Day" and
somehowsi it passed off without attract
ing any great amount of attention. Ger
talnly 1t ran poor second to Mothers
Day, which has the advantage of being
several years older and is therefore bet
ter known to the public
Father seems bound by the nature of
affairs to play second fiddle He used
to have title more or less honorary even
at its best, as head of the household"
He lost it about the time that automobiles
began to arrive in price to permit own
ership by everyone.
The rest of the family kidded him
along by still permitting him to use the
title, but in reality he is and always has
been the family goat. From the time
he had to threaten to lick neighbor,
who was going to spank little Johnny
for breaking window, until he has paid
for the last childs wedding, dad gets it
coming and going.
His best time is when the youngsters
are small. Then dad" is pretty much a
hero, and what he says and does is okeh.
When they get into their teens, and dad
has to put his foot down on various COM

a killjoy. He continues to wear the title
through the adolescent period, and about
the time the youngsters are marrying off
he is again considered a pretty good sort
of bird-but for a short time only.

UNCLE WIGGILY'S FUNNY
MONEY

Once upon a time, when Uncle
Wiggily was hopping through the
woods looking for an adventure, he
came to little puddle of water and
mud near a big tree. The sun was
shining on the mud puddle and the
old rabbit gentleman thought he
saw, on the edge, a number of fifty
cent pieces.
"Why, there's a lot of money
somebody has dropped exclaimed
Uncle Wiggily. "A lot of fifty cent
pieces! They have fallen in the mud
and are a bit dirty, but | can wash
off the dirt and, if l cannot find
who has lost the money, II use it
myself and buy toys for the chill
dren. IN lucky today!'Pfi
Mr.. Longears hopped to. thc edge
of the puddle and started to pick
up what he thought were dark fifty
cent pieces when, to his surprise, all
of y sudden those pieces of money
shot out legs and tails and heads
and away the money began to crawl.
"My goodness! This is most mys-
terious and surprisingn' cried Uncle
Wiggily. ''The money is running
away and how fast it goes, l have
always heard it said that money goes
fast, but | ever saw it 90 this way
before. This is funny money!
Then the rabbit gentleman look

CHANGE PLANNED
BY GRAHAM CARS

There will be no mid-sca son model
changes in the Grallah line Of SIX
and cight-cylindcr ears this summer
il was announced last week from
the factory at Detroit, W. c. Reed.
local dealer, stated that the Gra-
ham policy IS to keep Graham cars
always far in advance hGtl in
valuc-giving and performance fea
lures without mid season changes
which make obsolete ears giving
splendid service to tens Of thous
ands Of owners.
He points out that the motor ear
buying public is at "A loss during
the summer months TO know Just
what is going to happen to many
lines of ears. Rumors ct modci
changes, discOntinHancc of certain
lines, and price changes keep them
from buying during the early
months Of the summer when they
are most in need of ears. BY the
time these models are actually an
nounccd, the summer is three quar-
ters over and the motorist has littlc
or no time left to enjoy his new
car.
1t is believed that the policy Of
abolishing mid-season changes will
stimulate carly buying, since the
public can buy with confidence So
cure in the knowledge that no
change will be made which will les.
sen the value of their purchase,
Graham ears, says Reed, already
possess style and value features far
IN advance of ears in their respcc-
tive price fields, This fact makes
it unnecessary TO introduce new
mechanical features in the middle
of the summer.

really little, round, baby mud turtles,
lust the size of money. The baby
mud Turtles had been sleeping in the
sun on the edge of the puddle. But
of course, when Uncle Wiggily start
ed to pick them up they ran away.
Their legs, heads and tails had all
been tucked away and folded in be
tween their shells, and that is why
the rabbit did not see them at first.
"IIa, 1la, Hal" laughed Uncle
Wiggily as he saw his mud turtle
money running away. - Such fun
ny money!"

puddle, and great, big daddy tur-

baby turtles were fifty cent pieces
that had fallen in the mud"
Ha! Hal chucklcd the daddy
mud turtle. THAT was funny. But
since you are here, Uncle Wiggily,
perhaps you can do me favor"
- shall be most happy to do
that, " spoke the rabbit "What is
itg"
Mrs. Turtle and are going to
move to another puddle" went on
the daddy "This one is too small,
or ii will be when our baby turtles
grow larger. So Mrs. Turtle and I
have decided to 60 10 another pud

If we take our time. But il will be

one of the baby turtles.
They pulled in their legs, they
pulled in their tails and they pulled
in their heads and then, once more.
they looked like half dollar or fifty
cent pieces. There were more than
dozen of them, and Uncle Wiggily
put them in his pocket and started
to hop to the other puddle.
Your mother and | viii craw
over as soon as we can,'- said the
daddy mud turtle to his little ores.
With the funny money, as he
called the baby turtles, rafting in
his pocket, Uncle Wiggily hoppcd
and hoped. All of sudden, out
from behind a bush jumped the Bob
Cat and the Fox.
] Ha We have him now,' howled
the Bob Cat.
'"Check. exclaimed the Fox.
First see if he has any money in
his pockets and then II tie him
up and take him to my dcn''
The Bob Cat stuck one paw into
Uncle Wiggily 5 pocket and pulled
out a lot of little baby mud turtles
"Oh, look at the fifty cent
pieccs." howlcd the Bob Cat. But
he dropped some of them, and a,
soon as they struck the ground tho
little turtles stuck out their heads
they stuck out their tails and they
stuck out their legs and began T.
run away, for they knew there was
danger
"Look! Look" bowled the Fox
"What funny moncy,'
"It must be magical,' vowled
the Bob Cat. This is II trick. Come
on away from here! If Uncle Wig
gliv can turn money into turtles he
can turn us into Swiss cheese or
something like that SO away ran
the two Bad Chaps and then, with
a laugh, Uncle Wiggily gathered up
the baby turtles and took them TO
their new puddle. And If the egg

in 10 days, Miami authorities altered
their previous tactics to permit the re-
lease of the Chicago racketeer on 800
bond, but directed him to appear in
City Court today to answer vagrancy
charge.
The police took Capone into custody

held In jail overnight In the campaign
to cut short his stay here. Each time
he gained his freedom by habeas cor

man sees them. -
Capone and Albert Frignano COM

described themselves as real estate men.
Last nights arrest was made while
city commissioners had before them
q new vagrancy ordinance providing
$500 fine or 90-day Jail term for any
one convicted as a yagrant. The pro-
posed ordinance among other things
defines vagrant as a person with
visible means of support which have
been illegally acquired. Unoficially the
ordinance is said to have been framed
as one of the citys weapons in the
fight against Capone's visits here.

Tucker, laboratory technician of the
United States Naval Hospital Corps
School in Portmouth, announced yester-
day the discovery of new germ, not
Of disease, but believed to be essential
to health.
Tucker. who is a member of the
Royal Microscopic Society. stated he
has found the germ in fruits and vege-
tables such as apples, figs, oranges, beets,
turnips and potatoes. It was discovered
in two years of research in an effort to
determine what organism produces the
vitamins of fruits.
1.-THE relation of this family of
organisms to foods and diseases Is not
known to u.s." Mr.. Tucker stated. 'Our
experiments lead us to believe that they
are extremely essential to both. The
activity. or life. of these organisms has
not been known by US more than year.

added there was nothing to indicate
the government had any authority to

The labor minister said an attempt
also would be made to discover whether
the sale involved difficulties touching
upon the criminal code. Another phase,
he said, was the question of what policy
the Dominion should pursue in view Of
the fact that It was alleged the pro-
ducers, exhibitors and distributors were
the same persons, all resident in for
