UNCLE WIGGlLY'S FIRST
SNOW

You had better wear your rub
bers,' said Nurse Jane to Uncle
Wiggily one morning as the musk
rat lady housekeeper saw the rab-
bit gentleman leaving his hollow
stump bungalow to go adventuring
"WEy?" he asked. .##
Because I think it is going TO
snow" she answered.
"Oh, goodie! I hope it does!"
said Mr.. Longears. Il will take my
rubberS, Nurse Jane. For I don't
want TO get my paws wet and catch
cold when it is so near Christmas. F"
Il wish you were always that
wise and sensible" said Mrs. Long
ears with a laugh as she saw the
last of the rabbit children hopping
over tie hill to the Hollow Stump
School where the Lady Mouse
Teacher was waiting for them.
But do you really think it will
snow?" asked Uncle Wiggily as he
picked his rubbers off the hat tree
where they hung like big. black
buds on one of the pegs.
Those clouds look as if they
held snow, and the white flakes may
sift down any moment" said the
lady rabbit, looking up to the sky.

BEDTIME STORIES
BY HOWARD E. GARRIS

I she began to help Mrs. Longears
with the bungalow work while Un
Gle Wiggily Topped over the fields
through the woods. up hill and down
hill to look for an adventure and
watch for the snow.
At last. all of a sudden. as he
was hopping toward a little grove
where, later in the month, he WALT
ed to gnaw down a Christmas tree,
the rabbit gentleman saw some
white, featEery flakes lazily falling
through the air. At once his pink
nose twinkled very fast.
Its snowing!" shouted Uncle
Wiggily, jumping up and down for
Joy. ITS showing! The first snow
of the season! Hurray"
He felt just as you children feel
when you are sitting at your desks
in school and you look out of the
window and see the first snow
You feel just like bobbing up and
down, and if you do I am sure your
teacher will only smile. For there
is something about Tie first snow
that makes you feel funny inside
isn't there?
Anyhow that's how Uncle Wiggily
felt when he saw the first snow
and he was glad, when he saw hoT
fast the flakes were falling, that
he lad worn his rubbers.
For now l can hop where
please and I will not get my paws
vet" he said to himself.
Faster and faster fell the flakes
some of them sitting down on I'm
Gle Wiggily's warm, pink, twink
ling nose. The warmth of the bun
ny's noes made the snow flakes
melt into drops of water. Then
they tickled Uncle Wiggily so he
jiggled his head and shook the
drops off.
My! This is going to be quite
a STORM" said Uncle Wiggily as
he watched how fast the flakes were
falling. II can hardly see my way
! must not go too far or I will not
be able to find the path back IT,
my bungalow"
He hoped and skipped in the
snow, which was piling up deeper
and deeper on the ground unit
there was enough so Uncle Wig
gily could see his paw marks be-
hind him as he skipped along.
Il am leaving tracks," he said Il
himself. IF any of the Bad Chap;
should be out today they coulo
easily tell which way I am going
by looking at my snow tracks. They
could follow me. I had better gel
ready for trouble. I'll make SOM
snowballs to throw at the BAG
Chaps if see them"
So saying, Uncle Wiggily stopped
and began making snoWballs. Anc
what happened next I'll tell you to-
/ morrow night when the story viii
be about Uncle Wiggily's good shots
And I hope the looking glass viii
not make funny faces when the
head of cabbage wears its new hat
to go to the movies with the foot
of the bed.

A NICE PARTY

1t is an open question as to who derived
more enjoyment from the visit of Santa
Claus to FL Centre Saturday, the young
sters who squealed and yelled with de-
light, or adults who felt shivers of JOY
running up and down their spines as they
watched the happiness of the youngsters,
and, possibly, recalled the time when
they too looked forward to the annual
visit of Santa Claus as the greatest event
in the year.
He would indeed be cod-blooded in
dividual who could watch the crowds of
youngsters at the airport and in the bus
mess section of the city, and not feel the
thrill of real happiness.
1t was with considerable doubt that
The Press considered bringing Santa
Claus here Our youngsters become so
wise so soon, and our adults have grown
so cynical, that there was no little de-
bate over the wisdom of such a step.
But the events of Saturday afternoon
convinced all holding doubts that the
wise" youngsters are in the minority and
if the adult section is cynical it was at
least sporting enough to hide its cynicism
Saturday. The result was wonderful
success, with thousands Of little hearts
made happy and adults finding their
own beating bit faster.
The Press is deeply grateful to all who
assisted in making the affair such
pleasant one-the merchants who coop
Grated so generously, the traffic officers,
who seemed to get as much enjoyment
out of it as the youngsters and finally
and most of all, to Jack Polzine for
services rendered.
Perhaps it is too early to lay plans for
next Christmas, but the success of Sat
urday seems to warrant the hope that the
visit of Santa Claus can be made an an
nual affair. The children certainly want
it so, and we have yet to hear of an adult
with the heartlessness or the temerlty
to frown on the proposition.
