from the hill where Uncle Wiggily
and the Squiggle Bug were coast
ing.
"Oh, my!" yapped the little Fox
as ne scurried away from the bush,
back toward his home. II must tell
my father about this"
All out of breath, Boy Fox reach
ed the hole.
Whats the matter?" asked his
father, Fuzzy Fox
Il just saw Uncle Wiggily sliding
down the hill in a dishpan," said
the Boy Fox. Maybe you can catch
him!"

Fuzzy Fox.

If Uncle Wiggily and the Squig-
gle Bug could have heard Fuzzy
Fox laughing they would have rlm
away home But they didn't. The
Bunny and the Bug kept on coast
ing down hill in the dishpan sled,
walking back to the top each time
after their ride. And once, when
they reached the top of the hill.
there was Fuzzy Fox waiting fol
them.
"Ah, hal" snickered Fuzzy Fox.
Il have caught you Mr.. Longears.' >

asked the rabbit.

Fuzzy Fox. II am going to take

"Ha! Hal laughed Uncle Wig
gily. II am going to fool you, Fuzzy
Foxw
Suddenly the Squiggle Bug buzzed
up and bit the Fuzzy Fox on his
nose. That made him sneeze and
while he was sneezing Uncle Wig
gily and the Squiggle Bug jumped
into the dishpan sled and slid
down hill so fast that they fooled
the Fox. After the BAD Chap stop
ped sneezing he tried to slide down
hill after them on his tail But his
tail caught IN the ice and he turn
ed a somersault and part of pep
persault and flopped into snow

Squiggler slid safely to the bottom
of the hill and the Fox had. no
rabbit dinner that night.

So the Squigglc Bug crawled back

WELCOME. ARTILLERYMEN,

THE 'redlegs" are due in FL Centre to-
l day, and for the next few days will
be conspicuous in the community life of
this section.
For the benefit of the initiated, it
might explained that the ''redlegs"
are the artillery of your Uncle Sam, so
dubbed, according to army tradition, be-
cause the old blue dress uniform of the
artillery, abandoned at the time of the
World war, had a red stripe down the
trousers seam, which distinguished the
artillery from other branches of service,
the cavalry having a yellow stripe and
the infantry white stripe.
Officially the 'redlegs' are the 63rd
coast artillery Anti-Aircraft Regiment,
L. S. A. They will be camped at City
park.
They are not the old style artillery
unit, which went into action to the gal
lop of laundering hoofs, but are thor
oughly modern, tractors and automo-
biles replacing "Old Dobbn''.
The regiment is the only one of its
kind west of the Mississippi and is sta
toned at Fort Macarthur, San Pedro.
At present ii is making its annual tech
nical march, which extended down the
coast to San Diego, thence eastward to
Ell Centre, where it will turn north, re-
turning to San Pedro by way of Mecca,
Palm Springs and Redlands.
1t is not often that Imperial Valley
gets an opportunity to see units of the
regular army. While the artillerymen
are here on business, they are also guests
of this community and it is to be hoped
that when they leave here they will take
with them happy memories of their
stay in Ell Centro.
There are about 250 officers and men
in the unit. Ell Centre will find them
ready and happy to give information
about their equipment and their work.
The army has tradition for being a
good host.
In return Ell Centre should be ready
to extend any courtesy possible to Off
GERS and men. Such little things as CIV
ing them lift in automobiles, for in
stance, will be appreciated by men and
officers who are off duty, and who may
be without transportation.
There will be no mistaking the artil-
lerymen, who, of course, will be in uni
form. That uniform should be the sig
nal to US that the wearer is guest here,
and that it is up to us to extend him
our best line of hospitality.
The professional American soldier is
a credit to the uniform he wears and to
the country which he serves. We know
what he means to US in time of danger.
klpling has expressed it in his Tommy
Atkins. We should not consider the
American soldier a hero when danger
threatens and an outsider when there is
no fighting to be done. We will find
him, as exemplified in the 63rd Coast
Artillery, a good scout and fine fellow
to know.

MAJOR CERMiK PASSES

THOSE who point to the act of Gius-
eppe Zangara as an Indictment of
foreigners" who are permitted into the
United States, forgetting of course that
we are all foreigners or descendants of
foreigners, might look to the other side
of this "fore;gner' matter as portrayed
by his victim, Anton J. Cermak, mayor
of Chicago
Here was real foreigner, born in
Bohemia. who came to this country years
ago, labored in the coal fields as a COM
mon laborer and by dint of close appli-
cation to his improvement, plus a flare
for politics, became the mayor of the
second largest city in the country and
one of the most important in the world
There is no question regarding Ger
mak's AmericaniSm. 1t is taken for
granted that it was as staunch and as
steady as that of Mayflower stock, if
that be any criterion.
Tony" Cermak was typical of thou
sands of other foreigners who have become
good Americans. Few will dispute the
assertion that foreigners have contribut-
ed more to the development of this
country than the acts of few radicals
among their number have been contrary
to the American idea of things
llS IioS VI SuCIl IlcI1 DIS 1OIY AGT-
max is an encouragement to every for
eign born youth to do likewise. That all
do not follow such a course is no more
reason for indicting foreigners as a
whole than it would be logical to con-
denim native born Americans who fail to
become presidents, governors or mayors.
Not all of us can rise to posts of import
ance. Not all of us can behave ourselves,
whether we be foreign born, descendants
OF foreigners, or native born.
Mayor Cermak's death is deeply de-
plored by the American people. who
hoped that his long battle to live might
be successful. His solicitude for Mr..
Roosevelt and his expression of thank
fulness that he had been the one to stop
the bullets instead of the President
elect, stamped him as real man.
Speedy punishment is promised Zan-
CARA. He deserves it and little time will
be lost wasting sympathy on him.
And while mourning "Tony" Cermak.
