ventures and my stockings will not
slip down"
81 hope So" said Mr.. Longears,
dubious like and doubtful, and away
they hoped.
But they had not gone far be-
fore, all of a sudden, one of the
honeysuckle vine garters broke and
Susie's left stocking came down,
sliding all the way to her ankle.
Wait, Uncle Wiggily,' she cried.
1--WE got to pull it up."
So Uncle Wiggily waited and a
nice adventure, behind some trees
q short distance ahead, ran away
and was never seen again. Oh, it
was too bad!
"I guess you'll have to get me
another garter, Uncle Wiggily," "
said Susie as she looked at her
left leg. This piece of vine broke
and there isn't enough in the other
piece to take any off"
But where Uncle Wiggily and
Susie were just then grew no more
honeysuckle vine, SO Susie had to
get along with just one garter
And, after while, that broke and
her stockings kept coming down
| again.
Dear mep said Uncle Wiggily
"This is very Disappointing.
don't know what to do about
Susie Maybe I can twist some
grass into sort of string that will
do for garter"
Well, the rabbit gentleman tried
that and, for time, the grass
garterS held Susie's stockings up
nicely. But when she began to
hop fast, to keep up with Uncle
Wiggily, her stockings began to
slip and slide again and down they
came!
Susie, 1 guess you'll have to go
home and get proper garters," said
Uncle Wiggily Il can't be stop
ping all the while for you to pull
up your stockings. We have missed
half a dozen adventures today"
"Oh. please don't send me bach
homel" begged the little rabbi
child. 81 SO want to stay with
youl"
But your stockings, Susie! L
. l had something to- make garter'
: for you I'd be glad to let yol
: stay"
} Just then there was a littl'
2 rustling in the grass. Looking
down, Uncle Wiggily saw two tin!
t creatures and at the sight of then
he said:
/ "Ha! Now everything is goinl
/ to be fine and dandy Here ar
& two garter snakes, Susie. If the.
2 will kindly twine themselves arount
your legs they will hold up you
: stockings nicely. Will you do that
4 my dear little garter snakes?" n
< asked the crawling creatures.
e "Oh, yes, indeed, Uncle Wiggily,
q kindly hissed the little snakes.
9 Susie sat down and stretches
e out her legs. One snake twinet
}, itself around the left stocking
T. holding its tail in its mouth am

Brawley Woman
Seeking Divorce

A divorce on grounds of extreme
cruelty, custody of three minor
children and division of community
property were asked in a divorce
suit filed in superior court yester-
day afternoon by Mrs. Jesse M
Juvenal against Thomas E. Juven-
al. Both live at Brawley.
Mrs. Juvenal's complaint cited
the asserted extreme jealousy of
her husband as one reason why she
should be granted divorce. On
one occasion, her complaint said,
Juvenal flew into a rage at their
son. Robert, and said the house
was too small for both of them,
and that one must leave.

ANYONE who has lived in this world OF
"A strife and turmoil for 90 years, wheth-
er he be Millionaire or pauper, is entitled
to congratulations when he reaches this
advanced mark, and it is not surprising
that the press in general has been eX-
tending good wishes to John d. Rookie
feller.
1t cannot be disputed that were John
d. of less Importance than his business
success has made him, his birthday would
remain unnoticed by any but his immed-
late circle. But this does not detract
from the sincerity of the good wishes ex-
tended to him.
Time was when the name of John D.
was synonymous with good many un-
desirable things in the minds of great
many people. They overlooked the fact
that he started from scratch and by his
own willingness to sacrifice what many
believe essential-the pursuit of pleas
ures-and by making the best use of his
talents, he rose to position of preem-
inence in the industrial world.
Today, despite his advanced age and
his many millions, he is as simple and as
frugal in his personal habits as he was
in the days when new shiny dimes were
not things to be given away.
His good deeds are not to be over
looked in commenting upon Rockefeller.
The millions he has given to the cause
of education and the relief of suffering.
cannot justly be considered as playing to
the grandstand. The Rockefellers are
not of that type.
1t is his ambition to reach the century
mark and few will be found who would
honestly hope not to see him reach his
objective.
Wonder what the governor of New
York will say to the ex-governor of New
York when they meet.

WASHINGTON. July S. = Pres
ident Hoover, although embroiled
with Speaker Garner and sec
ton of congress over the relief
bill. is in fine spirits these days.
That is evident to those who see
him in informal moments. He
looked well, smiles more than he
did a year ago and seems confi-
dent. His speech bristles with
fighting words-one would suspect
he has been associating with Gen.
eral Dawes.
He is closely watching arguments
in house and senate over beer,
modification of the Volstead act
and allied prohibition subjects. But
he isn't committing himself. He
shares feeling general in Wash
ington that none of the bills on
these subjects will pass anyway
and he probably won't be called
upon to approve or veto any of
them.
Speaker Garner distinguished
himself yesterday by being late to
his office. He didn't reach his desk
until after 8 a. m. Usually he is
there SO exactly at 7:30 a. m. that
one can set his watch by Gamers
arrival. Garner said he oversight
for the first time since he was
elected speaker.
Mrs. Garner, who usually arrives
at the office about tbs a. m, has
started taking lunch at her desk.

PROTECTING THE INDIAN.

UNCLE SAM has at last come to the
u rescue of the Indians, to the discom-
future of New England manufacturing
enterprise.
The federal trade commission has
ordered a Massachusetts blanket con-
Germ to stop using Indian names and pic
lures on its products unless it is ex-
planned that the blankets are not made
by the Indians.
In giving its decision the commission
points out that the Navajos and other
Indians making blankets have been in
jured by the New England company,
through people purchasing the latter's
product in the belief that they were the
product of the red man.
We have done so much harm to the
Indian and comparatively so little for
his welfare, that it is a good sign to find
the government willing to give him the
benefit of the law. Now the commission
might extend its finding to include the
glass beads and other trinkets made in
New Jersey and purchased in the belief
they are real Indian goods.
The Indian cannot compete with mod
ern manufacturing and it is to no credit
of the whites to force him to do So We
have left him little enough to exc out
a meager living and rs he is supposed
to be ward of the government, it is up
to that government to protect him wher-
ever possible.
