UNCLE WIGGILY AND BUNTY'S
SPLASH

Uncle Wiggily was puzzled. He
had not been mixing up with any
crossword puzzles, nor had he been
trying to put together one Of those
sawed out mixtures of little pieces
of wood that are such teaSers.
What Uncle Wiggily was puzzled
about was where his fishing net had
gone, where the mud turtle had dis
appeared and who was shouting
Three things are quite enough
for a poor rabbit gentleman to be
puzzled about, I think, even if his
pink nose does twinkle.
Something happened" said Un-
Gle Wiggily to himself as ne stood
with a pail on the bank OF the
Duck pond. My net is gone, SO is
the mud turtle who promised to
watch it for me and why are those
anima, children shouting SO loudly
beyond these willow trees? l think
something must have happened
there"
Uncle Wiggily had gone with a
long handled net to the Duck Pond
to catch for his wife some goldfish

MAKING LIFE ENJOYABLE
W. C. COSTELLO
Manager

There was something rather appeal
ing about the revelation, made the other
day IN the newspapers, that Adolph
Iewisohn, wealthy New York philan-
thropist, began taking singing lessons at
the age of 90 and is now, at 81, amusing
himself by giving informal little song re-
citals for small groups of his friends.
Mr.. Lewisohn explains that he always
had wanted to sing, but that as young
man he had been too busy to take the
time to learn. Now that age and wealth
have brought leisure he is making up for
lost time.
All of this is interesting because it is
the sort Of thing that so few Americans
ever do. In youth we do as Mr.. Lewisohn
did we keep so busy earning living that
we have no time to indulge the creative
or artistic sides of our lives. Then, when
we grow older and the pace of everyday
affairs slackens a bit, we regretfully
conclude that it is too late.
This man was bit wiser than most.
He wanted to sing, and he set out to
learn how To be sure, he will never
make any money out of 1t, nor will It
make him famous; but that, after all, is
Just the point. It is precisely the use
less avocation of that kind that helps
to make ones life rich and enjoyable.
Some people understand that. There
are business men, and housewives, for
instance, who go to the public art school
and learn how to sketch or paint, and
who get tremendous lot of fun out of it.
To be sure, the pictures they produce are
not very good; but they are Just good
enough to bring world of satisfaction to
the men and women who create them.
Others try their hands at music There
exist literally thousands of amateur
string quartets and diminutive orchestras
which meet once a week or oftener to
play for the musicians own diversion.
They never perform publicly and no one
ever hears of them; but they mean a lot
to the men and women who play IN them.
1t is the same way with literature
Every newspaper columnist can tell you
of sober bankers and lawyers who write
poetry ION the side" Some of this poe
try, too, is surprisingly good; and 1t gets
printed, usually under pen names, IN
newspaper columns. No one gets paid
for it and no one gets famous; but the
writers are enriched, just the same.
These are the useless" diversions

One MAN WAR
ABRUPTLY ENDED
BY JAIL TERM

BY simply following an old school
day axiom. Carlos Elenez, 81, yes
terday afternoon got himself SEN
fenced by Judge Gruble of Calipa-
tria to pay fine of sloo or serve
100 days in the county jail for SIM
pie assault, and was taken to Jail
by George Evans, deputy sheriff,
when he could not pay the fine.
IF at first you don't succeed, try,
try again." was the saying. prac-
tice of which got Elenez into dif-
ficulties with the law.
Evidence introduced in court
showed that EleneZ several days
ago engaged in an argument with
an old man and his son In Calipa-
tria, with home brew supplying
the fires of argument. These fires
waxed hot, and Elenez went home.
: A few seconds later he returned
with an axe, threatening bodily
harm to the old man and his son.
Together they succeeded in taking
the axe away from him. In high
dudgeon, Elenez left again, only to
return a few moments later with
shovel. This. too, was wrested from
his grasp.
Really exasperated by this time,
Elenez made another hurried trip
to his source of supply, to return
with a fence post. which he WELD
ed as club. Alas, the fence post
was taken from him too, and placed
with the axe and shovel
Deciding to make a good job of
it on his last trip, Elenez procured
a large butcher knife and a crow
bar, and returned to storm the
house of his enemies. Tired of
continued wrestling, they had locked
the door, and refused to let him in
Elenez decided to picket the
house, and marched to and fro in
a one-man parade until Constable
Tedford of Calipatria interrupted
his hostilities by taking him to jail

of course riding will count great
deal toward accomplishment of an

upon offices which have been held

been won before this time and will
have to be determined before leay-
ing Ell Centro.

Amnesia Victim

Possibly a victim of amnesia
Ray Mobery. ID. is the object OF a
a search by the sheriffs office to-
day after a report yesterday after
noon by his father, w. D. Mobery
that the boy started to work Mon
day morning in his fathers auto
mobile, and has not been seen
since
Credence was given the amnesia
theory when the automobile was
found by the highway, badly
wrecked, and no trace of the youth
seen. He lived near the Ten-Foot
Drop on the Bonds Corner high
way.
Only sparse description of the
boy was obtained by officers. He
looks older than ID, said his father,
is five feet, IL inches tall and of
light complexion.
1t is thought the boy may have
been injured in the accident and
lost his memory. No other theory
to account for his disappearance
has been advanced.

This would make them

shout"
Not wanting anything like this
TO happen, Uncle Wiggily began to
hop as fast as he could toward the
clump of willow trees from behind
which came the shouts of the ami
NAL children. AT first Uncle Wig
gily was going to leave the empty
water pail near the place where he
| had put his net in the grass. But
en- second thoughts he said:
Some Of the animal children
might have caught some goldfish
with my net and I'd need the pail
to put them in. So I'll keep it with
me-"
Carrying the pail and hopping
fast, Uncle Wiggily was soon close
to the clump of willow trees which
grew on the bank of the Duck
Pond, but little farther down from
where he had been fishing.
All of a sudden, as Uncle Wiggily
was almost there, he heard loud
, splash in the water. Then some
animal children cried:
oh OH Oh, dearl'
Something surely happened that
timep exclaimed Mr.. Longears.
He hoped faster with the empty
tin pail banging and clattering. As
he turned the corner of the willow
trees Uncle Wiggily saw many of his
own little rabbit children, also
Jackie and Peetie Bow Wow, the
dogs; Mamie and Billie Wagtail,
the goats, and Johnnie and Billie
Bushytail, the two squirrel boys.
They all seemed much excited.
Here comes Uncle Wiggily!"
barked Jackie.
Now everything will be all
right chartered Billie.
What happened?' asked the
rabbit gentleman who was some
what out of breath from his fast
hopping. Who made the big
| splash?'
Baby BuntS did, answered jim
gle, a little rabbit girl
How did she do it," asked Uncle
Wiggily. Did Bunty throw a big
stone in the Duck Pond to make
big splash?n He looked around but
he could not see Baby Bunty.
she tried to throw big stone
in" barked Jackie Bow Wow, but
she made mistake and she slipped
and she went in the pond herself.
That's what made the big splash
do you mean that Baby Bunty
| fell into the Duck Pond?" cried Mr..
Longears.
she splashed inl" said Jangle.
Look, there she is noW!" She point
ed to Baby Bunty's head which just
then bobbed up out of the water.
And Baby Bunty made more
| splashes with her paws and cried;
Save me! Save mel"
I'll save youi" shouted Uncle
Wiggily. Where's my goldfish
net?p he asked. Did you children
find it back there in the grass?"
Yes" barked Peetie. Here it
is. We were going to try to catch
fish with it but we chucked stones
in first, to stir up the fishes. Then
Bunty splashed in and we all hol-
| lored"
well, I'll splash Bunty outi"
said Uncle Wiggily. He reached the
long handled net into the water.
He slipped it under splashing Baby
Bunty and lifted her out on shore.
She gasped and choked and was
very wet, but she was saved and how
glad everybody was, even Uncle
Wiggily.
First I caught big turtle and
then I caught Baby Bunty, but ]
haven't yet caught any goldfish,
chuckled Mr.. Longears. And If the
marshmallow candy doesn't GO
swimming in the bottle of ink to
make itself look like licorice drop,
I'll tell you next about Uncle Wig
eily and the funny turtle.
