UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
SNOW BIRD

Uncle Wiggily had done such
funny skating with the tin tops off
the molasses jars when he was es-
Gaping from the Fox that, next day,
Baby Bunty said to him:
will you do some more of that
funny skating for us, Unkie Wig?'
mo, my dear, I'm sorry, but 1
had better not" he said 1T was
harder than it looked, skating with
tin jar tops stuck on my paws with
molaSses. Once one of my tin skates
almost slipped off and if it had the
Fox surely would have caught me. ;"
"Oh, but" said Bunty, "if you do
it again, we will drive the Fox away
for you
mo, I had better not try it," said
Uncle Wiggily. THANK you for
wanting me, though. But anyhow,
Mrs. Longears wants to keep the
tops on the molasses jars until they
are empty. If the jars aren't kept
covered" said Mr.. Longears, twink
ling his pink nose in funny way,

"some little animal children I know
might be sticking their paws in the
molasses."
What children would do that?"
asked Bunty.
"Oh, well, let's talk about some
thing else" said Uncle Wiggily with
a laugh.
"All right agreed Bunty, "let's
talk about when Jack Frost is 60
ing to make it snow. He has fro
zen the duck pond so we can go
skating, but when will he make the
snow flakes fall so we can go sleigh
riding?'
Il don't know. I'll hop out and
ask him." offered Mr.. Longears.
Having nothing else to do and
wanting an adventure, the rabbit
gentleman hoped out of his hol-
low stump bungalow to go look for
his little ice elf, Jack Frost, from
the North Pole, to ask him when he
expected to make some snow.
Meanwhile Baby Bunty ran back
to where she had been skating Oh
the duck pond with the other ami
NAL boys and girls to tell them that
Uncle Wiggily would not do any
more skating on tin tops.
But he's going TO see about some
snow for u.s." said Bunty.
That's finep barked Jackie and
Peetie Bow WOW.
BY this time Uncle Wiggily was
on his way to the bosky nook where
once before, he had seen Jack Frost.
He hoped again to meet the little
man and ask him about snow.

EAST SIDE STREETS

FL Centro's city council is to be COM
mended for taking steps tending toward
the Improvement of streets on the cityS
east side.
At the council meeting this week the
city engineer was instructed to draw up
estimates for graveling several east side
streets, using transient labor, and sub
nit a report to the council.
The condition of east side streets has
been a disgrace to the city and rank in
justice to residents of that section. Aside
from paving certain commercial thor
oughfares, little or nothing has been done
for years to improve the condition Of
residential streets. Those residing there
have been subjected to clouds of dust
throughout dry portions of the year,
while in wet weather they have been
marooned in their homes, sometimes for
days, unable to get through the deep
mud.
1t is quite apparent that the property
could not bear the cost of street paving,
and none knows this better than east
side residents But graveled roads would
help great deal to relieve the present
undesirable conditions.
While volunteer labor on such a pro-
ject is undesirable we dare say large
number of east side men would willing
ly contribute their services in spreading
gravel over the streets. Such an atti-
tude is commendable, but the laborer is
always worthy of his hire.
Many promises are made east side res
idents during election campaigns. Quite
often they are conveniently forgotten
when the election is decided. A sincere
effort on the part of the city council to
improve street conditions across the
tracks, will be appreciated by the citi-
zens of that community, will give them
at least fair chance to come and go in
comfort, regardless of weather, and will
meet with the approval of west side res
idents who believe the present east side
conditions to be intolerable.
