Jingle and Jangle were hopping
over the fields. and through the
woods, up hill and down hill.
What kind of an adventure are
we going to have, Daddicums?"
asked Jingle as she jumped over a
stone
"a jolly, exciting one, I hope!'
said Jangle, kicking a pine cone
"Oh, Unkie Wig always has ex-
citing adventuresl" said Bunty.
You never can TELL" said Mr..
Longears with laugh. "All hope
is that the Bad Chaps don't catch
you three little rabbit girls"
THAT would be exciting" said
Bunty.
So they hoped on and on until,
all of sudden, they saw a thick
clump of bushes in field.
Maybe there's an adventure in
the clump," said Bunty.
Lets go look!" suggested Jingle
So all four rabbits hoped to the
thick cluster of bushes. But nc
sooner were they inside than the
Fox, the Wolf and the Bob Cat
all three Bad Chaps, who had been
watching and waiting, rushed to
surround the clump of bushes and
weeds.
They're in here!" howled the
Bob Cat. They can't get out! We
have them nowl Hurrayp
"Hurray! Hurrayp howled the
Fox and Wolf.
"Oh, what shall we don
whimpered Jingle.
This is too much of an ad-
venturel" sighed Jangle.
"Wait!" whispered Uncle Wiggily
Il have thought of a way to fool
these Bad Chaps. Bunty, pick me
that red plume" and he pointed
to cluster of bright. red berries
growing on the stalk of a sumach
bush. "I'll stick that red plume
in my hat and pretend I am a sol
dier captain" said Mr.. Longears
"I'll march around here in the
bush. The red plume will stick up
over the top. The Bad Chaps will
see it and think I'm the soldier
captain with my brave troops. All

Uncle Wiggily fastened the red
sumach plume on his hat. 1t stuck
up over the top of the bushes
Forward, march, my brave sol
diers!'' cried the rabbit. March

And when the Fox, the Wolf and

the red plume they gave loud howls
and ran away. I'VE didn't know
there were soldiers with a rec

ion so that the working man shall not
be subjected to long lay-offs every de-
cade; lay-offs which wipe out the re-

The farmer and the laboring man

LABOR DAY


/ ABOR DAY loses much of its signifi-
canoe in sections where organized
labor Is not represented in large num-
bers, but many valley residents who have
come here from the east and midwest,
can recall the gigantic parades with
which Labor day was once celebrated
and the brave showing made by mechan-
les, artisans and laborers as they marched
IN all their glory on the one day of the
year dedicated to them.
Nor was the parade the only event of
the day, even though it might be the
principal one, at least from the juvenile
viewpoint. Thousands of laboring men
and their families gathered together for
day of general iollification and sur
cease from work, they listened to in
structive talks from the leaders and ex-
changed gossip and information with
their neighbors.
Tuesday morning found them back on
the job, tired but happy and glad of the
employment they had, which enabled
them to care for their families, for labor
has always had families to consider.
To the cynic, it may appear as trav-
esty-men marching as knights and leg
endary figures one day, and back at the
work bench the next day. But was it
travesty? These men and their families
were and are the backbone of industrial
America. They it was who labored and
toiled to make this nation the greatest
in industrial enterprise.
How different the picture is today,
and how much sadder! Thousands Of
men will march on Monday as of old, but
thousands of them will have no jobs to
return to on Tuesday. Through no fault
of their own, they and their families are
suffering and have been suffering pri-
vation and want for many months.
1t is fine to boast of our industrial and
commercial leadership, but what good is
that leadership when honest men cannot
find work to enable them to feed their
families?
Blame whom we may or what We may,
the fact remains that we have bungled
the job somewhere. A nation that can
produce the best in everything has failed
miserably in producing the means of pro-
viding living for every honest man who
wishes to work.
We have done much in improving the
conditions of our prisons, so that con-
victs are treated more like men and less
like beasts; we have provided better care
for the poor and the needy, for the in
sane and the aged. We may take just
pride in this, but when we consider the
laboring man, we must, as a nation, bow
our heads and admit we haven't made
the success that we should.
A nation as great as this is should be
able to solve its industrial problem, so
that work can be provided for all. Ger
tainly it is deserving of as much thought
and study as are means Of producing
faster automobiles or airplanes, or bet
ter clothes An index of the helpful
books printed each year by the govern
ment covers multitude of topics, most
ly useless, on which much time and
money have been spent in research.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3. - Most
high officials here are particular
about what they smoke. Andrew
w. Mellon taught Secretary of State
Stimson to smoke tiny cigars. But
the man who knows more than
anybody else here about tobacco is
James c. Stone, head of the farm
board.
He was Kentucky tobacco mer-
chant for years and was founder,
president and general manager of

erative association with 100000
members and handling $50,000,000
worth of tobacco a year.
He'll smoke any kind of cigarette
you happen to have. He buys Is
cent brands and doesn't care much
whether they are fresher, milder,
kindlier or pronounced best by sci
ence. If they burn, that's all he
asks.
The hot weather in Washington
and the call of the fields where
votes are to be harvested, has de-

The problem of what to do with cur
rent magazines and newspapers is one
to puzzle the homemaker whose family
enjoy of these interesting sheets of news
and literature. 1t is she who has to pick
up the pages which are scattered about
by the careless reader, or return to the
table the magazines tossed one side after
the chosen article has been peruSed. But
this is not all. 1t remains for her to
decide how and where these open or

that there will be no repeated inquiries
as to their whereabouts. 1t is she who
has to see that the rooms look well
with these printed pages conveniently at

A good way to arrange current maga-
zines is in spread-out row along one
side of table. Let each periodical over
lap the one under it enough for the

the papers for two days are allowed to
