and Mrs. Reddy in front of him. Aft
er little he was able to get his back
to an apple tree and then he felt bet
ter. Reddy Fox tried his best to pull
him away from this, but he couldn't
Johnny Chuck was too big and heavy.
Besides ne was giving Reddy all he
could do to keep from being torn by
those sharp teeth.
1t soon became clear that Reddy was
getting a little the worse of it. John
ny's coat was tough. Underneath that
tough coat was layer Of fat and
Reddy's teeth had to go through both
the tough coat and the fat before they
could do any real harm to Johnny
Chuck. Mrs. Reddy soon saw this and
that Reddy would have to have help.
So she watched, jumping this way and
that way, for chance to dodge In
and seize Johnny where he would soon
be made helpless. That this chance
was bound TO come sooner or later
she was sure.
Now 1t happened that Bowser the
Hound took it into his head to trot
down the dusty road early that morn
ing. When he reached the corner
where Johnny Chuck's house was, of
course, he heard the racket made by
the birds and knew right away that
something was going on. He stopped
to listen. Mingled with cries Of the
birds were snarls and growls. Bowser
scrambled up to the bank and looked
over the stone wall. One glance was
enough. There right before him were
Reddy and Mrs. Fox! With a roar
Bowser was over that wall and half
way TO the fighters In the twinkling
of an eye.
At the sound of that voice Reddy
and Mrs. Fox had but one thought,
and that was to get away as fast as
their legs would carry them. Like
red fash Mrs. Reddy leaped and dart
ed down through the Old Orchard to-
ward the Green Forest. Reddy tried
to do the same thing, but Johnny
Chuck had set his teeth In Reddy's
Bowser's voice made him let 60. He
was beyond caring about Bowser.
Reddy struggled with all his might
and fear doubled his strength. Just
In the nick of time he shook himself
free and bounded away. Bowser mere
ly glanced at Johnny Chuck and start
ed after Reddy, his great voice wax
ing all the echoes In the Green Forest.
So ended the great fight Of which
the little people of the Old Orchard
tell to this day. AS for Johnny Chuck,
he marched back to his house growing
dercely all the way and there on his
doorstep he set about licking his
wounds.

increase, the fruits of the first mill
strike in this city since 1929.

clared that unscrupulous marking up
of products for retail sales under the
guise of payments of sales tax will
be heavily penalized.
"Some Dealers" he said, "have at
tempted to make use of the sales tax
to gouge their customers and are ex-
acting exorbitant prices far in excess
of a one per cent addition"
Mr.. Graves cited an instances in
which suit of clothes was adver-
tised for SIS, and when payment was
made the merchant demanded an ad-
ditional SIS because of the tax. He said
the penalty for such misrepresenta-
tion is suspension of the retailers
license, and fine of 500 or a year
in prison for continuing in business
after such suspension.

which happened up near the corner

Jay saw the start of 1t because he
was right there. And Of course it
wasn't long before every body In the
Old Orchard who could fly was right
where he could see all that went on,
for Sammy's voice reached even to the
far corner where Polly Chuck was
So all the festhered folks forgot ev-
erything else and hurried over TO see
the fight. Such racket as they
made! Their tongues fairly few as
they shouted encouragement to John

Johnny needed all the encourage

Fox alone would have been no small
task, but to have to fight two at once
