The January thaws through which we have been dragging muddy feet lately are apt to lead us astray. This is the time of the year when false promises of spring usu- ally cause mankind to lose all sense of cau- tion. But February is just around the cor- ncr and February usually can be relied upon to produce a variety and degree of weather sufficient to convince even the most hardened soul that New England still enjoys real winters.

up a company which produced, re-
fined, distributed and retailed its
oil. He built two towns. And, with
the lavishness of the period, he
made a rose garden bloom in an
Oklahoma desert.
1t has been reported that it cost
him 100000 year just to bring
the water for the rose garden out
from Ponca City.
When Marland's company was
absorbed by Continental Oil, he
turned to politics. He was swept
into congress in the Democratic
landslide last November. In his
first month he has made a record
that any newcomer would envy.
Marland has been successful, for
one thing, in obtaining hearing on
a bill he is backing. The hearings
will begin tomorrow. The bill is to
prohibit the movement in inter-
state commerce of oil produced in
violation of state laws.

open hearings. Most of their pro-
posals are quietly put aside in con-
venient pigeon holes.
Marland's business experience
earned him a place on one Of the
important house committees, that
dealing with interstate and foreign
commerce. He has been particularly
active in committee consideration
of the Roosevelt "blue sky" secur-
tiles bill and has much to do with
the way the committee is framing
the measure.
Marland dresses faultlessly,
speaks in soft, pleasant voice. He
is stocky and gray haired, and uses

By Fire Chief

A warning to all parents not to
allow their children to play with
matches, particularly when elder.
members of the family are not pres
ent was issued by Tom Reams, chief
of the fire department this morn
ing.
Reams bolstered up his warning
by an example which occurred last
week in this city and which, but
for the prompt action on the part
of an adult would have resulted in
a disastrous fire. A four-year old
boy having found a box of matches
lying about loose, promptly started
to build fire between two houses
in his neighborhood. The blaze
was mounting higher and higher
and was about to catch on the side
of one of the houses when the boys
father, attracted by the smell of
smoke came on the scene and with
a garden hose put out the fire.
The fire chief wished this warn
ing to be issued particularly in
view of the high winds which are
at present prevailing and which
would soon cause any small fire
to develop into serious conflag-
ration within a short time.

ears didn't want them to laugh at
him.
"And I know they'd laugh to see
an old rabbit like me dive in and
flop around in the water" said Mr..
Longears. "Still I might as well
have some swimming fun as any
one else," and he twinkled his pink
nose and hurried on to the SWIM
ming hole.
1t was in quiet part of the
woods where he felt sure no one
could watch him and, seeing that
the pool was looking, Uncle
Wiggily began to take off his
clothes.
ouch! It's colder than it looksl"
exclaimed the rabbit gentleman
with little shiver after he had
dipped one toe in the water "I
guess, maybe, if I wait until the
sun gets higher, it will warm the
water for my swimming BATH"
So the rabbit sat down on a log
beside the pool, or swimming hole,
to wait for the water to get warm.
But the breeze was a bit chilly, and
without any clothes on Uncle Wig
gily began to feel cool.
Perhaps I'd better dive In and
! flop around in the water and have
my swim," he said to himself. "It
seems to be colder out of the water
than it may be in it. I'll dive in
Again he tried the water once
more, with his other big toe, and
it felt little warmer.
Here I go!" cried Uncle Wiggily
He looked at his pile of clothes on
the shore to make sure none of
them had blown away. Seeing that
they were safe behind bush, into
the water jumped the rabbit gen.
tleman and he splished, splashed
sploshed and swan about as we'll as
he could. At once he began to feel
warmer, just as you do when you
jump up and down in the snow.
"Ah, this is finel" murmured the
bunny, Splashing some more. u
may not be a very fancy swimmer
but I'm having funl" Sc he swan
about and what with having fun
putting and blowing and getting
water in his eyes, Uncle Wiggily
didn't see the Fox and the Bob Cat
coming through the woods. But the
Bad Chaps saw him.
What happened next I'll tell you
tomorrow night when the story will
be about Uncle Wiggilys clothes
But I'll tell you this much now, The
Fox and Bob Cat didn't catch the
bunny. However, he had strange
adventure. And I do hope you will
stop the teapot from playing tag

to see if he could find an early
flower blossom out of which he
might suck some honey, Uncle Wig
