cause some of his children made
him very unhappy by quarreling and
pulling the cloth and all the dishes
off the table.
Then Baby Bunty had run to the
woods to look for her Unkie Wig,
as she called him, and she had found
him, with the tickle stick, and now
they we're on their way home.
But in the hollow stump bungalow
there was sadness because Uncle
Wiggily was away.
do you think he Il ever come
back, Nurse Jane?' asked Jingle.
why of course he WILL said the
muskrat lady housekeeper.
.'If he doesn t we II send the jolly
old Police Dog after him!' said
Mrs. Longears.
Then all of a sudden, Jangle
shouted:
II see him. Here comes Daddi-
Gums and Baby Bunty'
Along came hopping Uncle Wig
gily. Behind him was Baby Bunty.
And then, all at once, the bunny
children all began to laugh.
"Hal Ha! Hol Hol Tee hee.
Quee Wee Quee Wee they laughed
Then Baby Bunty laughed and
said:
II knew this would happen Unkie
Wig!o a
What do you know would hap

"I knew said Baby Bunty,
that as soon as you came along
with the tickle stick, all of them
would laugh. And so they did,
didn't they?"
"They surely did" said Mr.
Longears. But IS it s funny, Bunny,
I have lost the tickle stick I must
have dropped it in the woods. y
"Oh dear' sighed Bunty. "But
then, why did everybody alugh?'
"I'll tell you why said Nurse
Jane. 1--WE laughed because we are
SO glad Uncle Wiggily came home
Now everybody is going to be hap

out a tickle stick And if the spool

tell you next about Uncle Wiggily

George Arliss' latest character ization which, had his previous portrayals not been so fiawless might be called the finest of his career, Alexander Hamilton" opens a four day engagement at Warner Brothers State theater this afternoon.

The woman Is sent by her husband to Hamilton with a plea for money to enable her to get away from her supposed ly cruel husband.
 Hamilton is duly deceived and fascinated and later Reynolds re- ports to Jefferson. Monroe and oth- CT notables of the day, that he is making improper use of govern ment funds. When accused Hamil- ton is able to clear himself of the CndFR6 Ol ulSHOHcSly, Out Coh- fesses his implication with the unquestionable lady. This is but one of many exciting scenes in a play that is laid in picturesque settings in and about Philadelphia.
 Alexander Hamilton" is based on the play in which Mir. Arliss starred some years ago. and which he wrote in collaboration with Mary Hamlin. His support is ex- cellent. including Doris Kenyon as Betty Hamilton, wife of the hero; Alan Mawbray as General Wash ington and Gwendolin Logan as the first First Lady of the Land; Dud- ley Digges as Senator Roberts; Montague Love as Thomas Jeffer- son; Lionel Belmore as General Schuyler: Morgan Wallace as James Monroe; John T.

Hollywood, Calif-Screen cele- brities often are as well known to the public by their nicknames as by their own names. But some have n!cknames belonging strictly to Hollywood.
 Joan Crawford, for example. al- ways calls her husband, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr, "Dodo." Neither of them knows just how she started using this term, but she never calls him anything else-even when she's mad.
 And Clara Bow. even though she now has become a blond, still is re- grandest blend of entertainment. Will Rog- CTS is surrounded by the most cap able cast that ever played with the comedian. It includes Myrna Loy, William Farnum, Maureen O'Sul- livan, Frank Albertson and others, under the direction of David But Ter.
 A big cast of film favorites is to be seen and heard in Para mounts Limitation of Murder by the Clock'-which is the compan- ion feature, the mystery thriller based on Rufus Kings big selling book of last season. William Boyd plays the role of Lieutenant Val cour; Regis Toomey is officer Cas- sidy; Sally O'Neil is Jane; Lilyan Tashman is Mrs Herbert Endicott. a character which did not appear in the original story; Walter Mo- Grail is Herbert Endicott. For purposes of investing the film with a full amount of mystery the cul- prit, whose identity is not disclosed until the last few minutes, is diff ferent person from the one brought to justice in the original noval.
 Also on the bill is Universal News with Graham McNamee an- nouncing.

Here's the picture you've been waiting fora travesty on on Mark Twain's famous story that unlocks the floodgates of laughter and affords the finest comedy mo- ments in Will Rogers career.
