tJere Iookulp Tor the Sod bee

"How?" asked Mr.. Longears,
thinking Of how he and Bunty had
met a Bee, the day before, who
was sad because after he had
worked hard all summer to gather
honey, he had to eat it up in the
winter when no flowers bloomed.
Il have made some sweet syrup
of sugar and water" explained
Bunty, showing a little pail she
carried. 1T will be almost like
honey for the Bee and when I give
it to him and he knows he doesn't
need to eat up his own honey that
he gathered, maybe he will be
happy"
Maybe" agreed Uncle Wiggily
But I think that Bee, my little
Bunty, would be sad anyhow. He
seems to be that kind of a bug
However, we'll take him your sweet
syrup and see what he says. Any
how it may give us an adventure. |"
II hope So" said the little or
phan rabbit, dancing around on
one leg and letting her ears flop
from side to side. Come on, let's
hop and find the sad Bee and try
10 make him happy"
I'm with you'll" shouted Uncle
Wiggily just like boy rabbit.
Together, he and Baby Bunty
hoped over the fields, through the
woods. up hill and down hill. They
were hopping toward that part of
the forest where, the day before,
they had met the sad Bee.
Il hope the old Bear isn't around
today" said Bunty.
II hope the same" agreed Mr.
Longears. For yesterday, when the
Bear said he was going to take
some of the sad Bears honey, the
Bee stung the Bear on his nose
and the Bear scattered sticks,
stones and dirt on Uncle Wiggily
and Bunty.
Here's the placel" called Bunty
as she saw a large, hollow tree.
Here's where we met the sad Bee
yesterday"
Z believe you're right" agreed
Mr. Longears. Look around and
see if you can find the buzzlng
insect" g"
Al that moment a buzzing sound
was heard in the air and along
came looming a big yellow chap
who was singing and humming to
himself.

HIGHEST praise is due the Forty and
"A Eight and its allied organizations in
imperial Valley, cooperating with it in
the maintenance of the Hipass Health
camp during this summer
Here is community activity of the
highest type, worthy of the support and
cooperation of every adult in Imperial
Valley, and offering an excellent oppor-
tunity for doing good for those who need
1t most-undernourished and underpriv-
lleged youngsters.
Some Of the youngsters who attended
the camp were boarded there by the par
ents, but many others would not have
been able to be at the camp were it not
for the unselfish generosity of num-
erouS organizations and individuals
throughout the valley. These organiza-
tions and individuals provided the means
necessary for the youngsters to remain
IN camp, some of them for the entire two
months of its existence.
1t meant plenty of hard work and sac
rifice on the part of the camp organ
izers and those conducting it, to make it
the splendid success that it was, and
their only reward is the knowledge of a
good work done, the pay that comes
from seeing children made healthy and
happy and the esteem and goodwill of
their fellow citizens.
The Hipass Health camp is a direct
challenge to those who see the eX-service-
man only as a grabber and one capital
izing on his service to his country. The
men and women who directed the camp
undertook it voluntarily as a communi-
ty service, spurred on by the same high
spirit that prompted them to service in
1917-1S. They asked no blare of trun1-
pets, no headlines in the papers. They
did ask for the cooperation of their fell
low-citizens and got it, and as the work
at Hipass becomes more generally
known, it is certainty that they will get
greater support for future camps.
Hipass camp is conducted by Imperial
Valley citizens for Imperial Valley
youngsters. There is no heavy over
head, no high salaried officers and every
cent contributed to its support is made
to work overtime.
1t is neither proper nor desirable here
10 single out any individuals for words
of praise None wishes to be singled out
but all are satisfied that whatever praise
is bestowed should go to the entire or
ganization and those who cooperated
with it.
Imperial Valley citizens should not
lose sight of Hipass camp because it
closed last Sunday. 1t will be open again
next summer and there is ample time
between now and then to remember it
substantially. Contributions are not es-
sential now, but any that are received
can be laid away until needed next sum-
mer.

A POLITICAL MARTYR

DOLITICAL predictions are dangerous
affairs, but it will be big surprise
to many if Jimmy Walker doesn't become
a candidate for mayor of New York in
November, and still more of surprise
if he is not elected by an overwhelming
majority.
Resignation of the debonair mayor yes
terday, in the face of the investigation
which has been. going on in Albany for
several weeks past, was splendid politi-
cal strategy. From being person un-
der suspicion the colorful Jimmy is now
changed to a martyr, the victim Of a po-
litieal frame-up.
The declaration of New York judge
that Walker was not being given an i'm
partial trial, has been taken for truth
by many, including millions of New
Workers. Adding this to the former
mayors unquestioned popularity in all
parts of the country and the role of
martyr was an easy one for him to as
sumo.
Walkers action cuts the Gordon knot
for Franklin d. Roosevelt but it also,
Intentionally or otherwise, classes the
governor of New York among Walkers
prosecutors and is likely to count heaV-
lily in the presidential voting in New
York state this fall. Roosevelt's en-
barrassment over the whole Walker mat
ter, has not been relieved by the mayors
resignation.
Walkers personality is his trump card
and he is going to use it to every advan-
tage. The fact that fate aided him in
assuming the role of martyr, his brother
being buried on the day he resigned, also
strengthens his position. Were he to
run for office of mayor today, he would
be elected without difficulty. New York
loves him and loves him for his faults
as we'll as for his virtues. And his task
of being reelected will be even easier in
November. New York is more senti-
mental than the smallest village in the
country Jimmy can be trusted to work
upon its sentimentality to the utmost,
and with success.

One of Most Dramatic Stories
of Lost Riches.

Mexico City.-Twenty years ago, a
German dreamed of hoard of hid
den gold. Now he has found tunnel
which he believes will lead him to the
treasure of a long-dead king.
The scene of this is in the hinter-
land Of Mexico, and the story is one
of the most dramatic in the annals Of
lost riches.
Twenty years ago Ernesto Loeck
was a rising business man in the Ger
man town of Dusseldorf. He was
then Just turned forty, and his dill
gence and acument were enabling him
to put by what promised to be hand
some little competence.
About year after his wife died he
had a vivid and remarkable dream.
The scene was the, crest Of high
mountain, and along narrow track
wound long line of light-skinned and
scantily clad Indians. They marched
in single file, and on the shoulders Of
each was borne a roughly made hide
sack--a sack containing gold.

"At Washington, the United States
government brought almost to compile
ton model modern automobile road,
built in preparation for the bi-centen-
NAL celebration of the birth of George
Washington. 1t is the Mount Vernon
Memorial highway, extending from the
National Capital to the home of the
first President.
''The Mount Vernon roadway is wide
enough for four lanes of traffic, and Is
to have on each side parked strips of
lawn, flower beds and shrubs. No road
however unimportant is permitted to
cross the highway blind The least
important roads have staggered cross

roads are carried over the highway

"The most notable engineering event
Of the year was the completion in Oc-

$500 feet is the longest suspension
bridge in the world. Only few weeks
later, the nearby Kill Van Kull bridge
between New Jersey and Staten island
was completed, the longest steel arch

Of the year was that of the New
Welland canal in Canada between Port
Colborne on Lake Erie and Port Weller
on Lake Ontario. At one point the
Welland river is siphoned under the
canal.
"In November the Panama canal
was temporarily closed by the first

Important railway construction

activities in wide distribution through
out the world. OF great significance
was the building Of a railway section
