"Oh, SO there you are, Wiggyl"
snarled the Weasel.
Yes, I'm here" answered the
rabbit, who was brave because he
was going to get the mouse out of
the trap.
Its wonder you don't run and
try to get away from me-" sneered
the Weasel. You act as if you were
waiting for me-"
Il am waiting for you," said the
rabbit, calm and nonchalant like.
You are" gasped the Bad
Chap. Don't you know I always
try to nibble you when 1 get the
chance?"
YES" answered Mr.. Longears,
but before you try to nibble me,
as you think you are going to, /
want to ask if you think you are
very strong?"
"Oh, I'm very strong" boosted the
Weasel.
Are you strong enough to go in
that trap" asked the rabbit point
ing his paw at it, land break it
open?"
"Of course I am" the Weasel
said. That's only a mouse trap
I can go right n and easily break
it open"
i "Ha ha! You can't do it," chuck
led Mr.. Longears.
II can't" asked the Weasel. "Ho!
Ho!'
mo, you can't!" and this time
Uncle Wiggily turned up his pink
nose. I'D like to see you go in that
trap and break it open"
"All right I will and then ri
nibble you'll" boosted the Bad Chap
Here 1 go! Watch mel" With
/ that he walked in the trap door
which would open in, but would moi
open out, or Mr.. Longtail coulc
have gotten loose. Into the traI
walked the Weasel. Uncle WiggilJ
| whispered to Mr. Longtail to stay
! behind the cheese so the Wease
couldn't get him.
"One, two, three!" snarled the
Weasel and, arching up his back
he quickly broke the wires of the
trap, making a big hole near the
cheese.
Run out, Longiel Run out!'
shouted the rabbit And before the
Weasel knew what was happening
! out ran the mouse and the bunny
took him home to the mouse wifc
and never told what had happened
He just said Mr.. Longtail was lost
SO everything was fine and dandy
And if the cork screw will stop
trying to put oranges instead OF
lemons inside the apple dumplings

UNCLE WIGGHYS TRAP
TRICK

Uncle Wiggily sat on toadstool
in the woods and, by the light OF
the moon, looked at Mr.. Longtail,
the mouse gentleman, who was
caught in a trip with piece OF
cheese
Il don't see how you are going
to get me out of here so my wife
won't know it and call me fool
ish old mouse" squeaked Mr.
Longtail. 81 don't see how you are
going to work this trick"
"I'll soon show you" promised
the rabbit uncle.
Imperial Valley press. (El Centro, Calif.) 1907-current, 1932-10-29
I'm very Stron8
the rabbit uncle

When Mr.. LOngtail didn't come
nome from the cheese factory early
one afternoon, as he had promised
to, his wife became worried and
asked Uncle Wiggily to look fol
her husband. So Mr.. Longears did
He found the mouse gentleman
caught In a trap. 1t was the kline
shaped like a little house, of wires
In the trap was piece of cheese
and when he smelled it, Mr.. Long
tail crept in to get it. Then the
door sprang shut and the poor lit
tie mouse gentleman was caught.
Its the first time in my life
too" he said mournfully. And
hope it will be the last. Oh, if my
wife finds out how silly 1 was
she'll never speak to me again, and
as for the children"
Don't worry! They'll never
know" said Uncle Wiggily. "And
now not another word, Longiel
think I hear some one coming who
may help me to spring this trap
trick. Keep very quietl Hide behind
the piece of cheese"
"All right, I will, but get me out
quick, Wiggy, Old Pall' said the
mouse.
81 will Don't be surprised at
whatever happens, said the rab-
bit. Just keep hiding back of the
piece of cheese and when you find
the trap sprung open run out and
run home!"
Il surely will" said the mouse
He hid behind the piece of cheese
in the far corner of the trap IN
Gle Wiggily, who was out on the
moonlit path in the woods, looked
down it and saw some animal COM
ing.
Its the Weasel, just as
thought" murmured Mr.. Longears
He will just about be able to get
in the trap with Longie. only hope
the mouse keeps behind the cheese
If he doesn't my trap trick isn't go
ing TO be SO good But CUES;
Longie will know enough to keeI
out of Weezie's way" for thus
the rabbit gentleman spoke of the
Bad Chap in a jolly way though
the Weasel was anything but jolly
being a sly, hungry animal.
ALI of sudden the Weasel
sneaking along the woodland patti
in the moonlight, saw Uncle Wig
gily sitting beside the trap, though
because the mouse was behind th'
piece of cheese the Weasel did no
see Mr.. Longtail.

A SHABBY TRICK

MANY shabby tricks can be charged to
iIi politics, but the shabbest developed
IN many moons is the excuse given yes
terday in Philadelphia for refusing Nor
man Thomas, Socialist candidate for
president, permit to speak at the city
plaza.
The shabbiness of the refusal is en-
phasized by the fact that President
Hoover is to speak in the same place on
Monday night The refusal explained
that Thomas talk was to be political
meeting whereas the President is not
Honesty compels the admission that
the Presidents appearance at any place
outside of Washington right now is a po-
litical gesture, designed to seek votes
Philadelphia city officials must be aware
of that fact. Mr.. Hoover is not one whit
behind Mr.. Thomas in seeking votes.
AS minority candidate, with no pos
sible hope of being elected, Thomas has
beeen making an intelligent orderly and
interesting campaign. He is a Socialist
and breaches socialistic doctrines, but
that is his right under the constitutions
guarantee of free speech. Personally
Thomas is conceded to be everything that
an uprightS intelligent and law-abiding
American citizen should be.
The American spirit of fair play will
resent the discrimination made against
Thomas. Unfortunately, many unthink-
ing persons will charge the permit re-
fusal to the Republican party, whereas
the blame seems to rest entirely on the
shoulders of Mayor ]. Hampton Moore,
of Philadelphia He has done neither
the Republican party nor President
Hoover any good by his small-minded ac-
ton.
Thomas has spoken in practically all
of the large cities of the country, being
accorded the courtesy which is his by
right of being the spokesman for several
million American citizens. 1t is ironical
that the place known as "The City of
Brotherly Love-, should be the only one
to fail to live up to the meaning OF its
name.
