UNCLE wIGGLY'S SNOW CAVE

Where are you going. my dear?

the fat pig gentleman. He was
speaking to his wife He really

again.
You had better do as your wife

tail he went on. Il didn't know
you had any snow shoes of mine
in your cellar
Il really haven't your snow shoes
there" said the lady pig with
smile that showed all her white
teeth. But down cellar is an old
barrel and l am going to take
some pieces out of it and let you
strap them on your paws. The
barrel slaves will make fine snow
shoes for you and you can walk
safely over the deep snow to your

Bronchial Irritations
Need Creosote

For many years our best doctors
have prescribed creosote in some
form for coughs, colds and bron-
chitis, knowing how dangerous it
is to let them hang on.
Creomulsion with creosote and
six other highly important medici-
nal elements, quickly and effectively
stops coughs and colds that other
wise might lead to serious trouble.
Creomulsion is powerful in the
treatment of colds and coughs, yet
it is absolutely harmless and is
pleasant and easy to take.
Your own druggist guarantees
Creomulsion by refunding your
money if you are not relieved after
taking Creomulsion as directed. Be-
ware the cough or cold that hangs
en-. Always keep Creomulsion on
hand for instant use. adv.

really must get home, even through
this bad storm and the deep drifts
or my wife and Nurse Jane will
worry about me-"
L suppose they will" agreed Mrs.
Twistytail.
But you are welcome to stay
here with us all night, Ker-choo!'
said the pig gentleman, though Of
course he wasn't calling Uncle
Wiggily a "ker-choo." It was just
that the pig sneezed then.
"Oh, I know l would be very
happy staying here and playing
checker games with Twisty while
he has a cold and can't go out, -
said the rabbit, but really must
go home"
Then I'll bring up the pieces of
barrel and Twisty and will help
you make the snow Shoes grunted
the lady pig.
Uncle Wiggily had come out in a
snow storm, not thinking it would
last very long or that the drifts
would get SO deep. Then he stop
ped in to see the sick pig, who had
a cold. And all the while the snow
kept falling SO that when Uncle
Wigily wanted to go home it was
so deep that he couldn't. The snow
would have come up to his pink
nose.
Mrs. Twistytail brought up two
long, thin pieces of wood that
looked as much like Indian snow
shoes as possible. Or better
name would be skis, for regular
snow shoes, as you know, look more
like lawn tennis rackets.
But how am 1 going to fasten

CONGRESSIONAL HOT AIR

SO far this session of congress has been
better than average in devoting itself to
the work at hand, though it has hardly
been in session long enough to justify
either commendation or condemnation in
this respect.
Yesterday, however, the senate bowed
to tradition, custom, courtesy or some
ether flimsy excuse, in permitting Sena-
tor Morris Sheppard of Texas to make a
speech on prohibition.
AT the time the senate was in debate
over the st. Lawrence river waterway
treaty, most important matter-import-
ant enough to warrant a special message
to congress from the President.
Yesterday was the 14th anniversary of
the first enforcement of the 18th amend
ment to the constitution, an amendment
of which Senator Sheppard was co-au-
thor. Srhe 18th amendment became
dead letter last month when the nation
adopted the 21st amendment, multiplying
the 18TH
Senator Sheppard interrupted the de-
bate on the st. Lawrence waterway treaty
and harrangued the senate for one hour,
on the causes of the collapse of the 18th
amendment, and in predicting that
eventually prohibition will return.
The senator's remarks had no bearing
on the subject before the senate. They
accomplished nothing beyond giving the
senator chance to crafty his personal
desires by indulging in bit of oratory,
and they interrupted the orderly progress
of business upon which the senate was
engaged
Free speech is a wonderful thing and
is not to be condemned, but the rules of
congress which permit senator's and rep
reSentatlveS to interrupt business by max
ing speeches of interest to nobody, and
quite often not even interesting to the
persons making them, are greatly in need
of revision.
There's nothing like knowing when a
thing is to happen, so Russia should be
"all set" for that war it says is coming
next year.
The Great Carlo was at least discreet
in her roamings around Arizona-she
didn't try to pass herself off as Kelly,
O'Shea or McGillicuddy.

RkING THE COLLEGES

Sports writers on the coast are having
loads of fun exciting the ire of the COL
leges by extolling the virtues of profess
sional football, following stellar game
at Los Angeles in which the champion
Chicago Bears participated
The colleges deserve much credit for
the development of football. They faith
erred Cor should it be mothered) the game
and it is from their efforts that the
pro game has sprung.
Against the colleges is to be chalked
up 'holier than thou" attitude, directed
chiefly toward the professional athlete.
Yet the latter is good enough to coach
the college football team, the boxing
team, and even the football team, for the
big college football coach is profession
lal in the fullest sense of the word.
Colleges appear ridiculous when they
pretend to scott at the money angle of
potball. All the records are against
hem. A successful (moneymaking)
lam is of paramount Importance.

showed that Germans assertion

The truth of the matter is, he said,
that wherever a struggle occurs by
