The time when you must go back to school
draws closer and closer. There's nothing you
can do about it, either-but perhaps you can
forget it for while by working on these
riddles.
1. Why is flea more dangerous than an
elephant?-Louis Winnard. j
2. Not tune of any type, yet it's blown
upon a pipe. What is it?-Marjorie Ann Amos.
8. Why would Samson have been good
actor?-Ethel Marie Herbig.
4. What was Noah doing in the Ark?-Doro-
thy Ann Sillars.
S. When does an orator. feel girlish?-Billy
Jud Turner.
ANSWERS.
1. Because flea can bite an elephant. but
an elephant can't bite flea. 2. a bubble. 3.
Because he could easily bring down the house.
4. Preserving pears (pairs). S. When he makes
his maiden speech.

"And he couldn't possibly see Rollo, since
he's crushed clear down in the bottom Of the
canoe" said Bill. "Boy, that was funny"
you're certainly a quick thinker, Mary
congratulated Keith.
In few moments they had reached the
boat house. They docked the canoe and car
ried the remains of Rollo inside, where Keith
switched on his fiashlight. Mary at once began
to examine Rollo's sadly dilapidated head.
Look therei" she cried. "Three different
bullet holes"
The boys regarded them soberly. Finally
Keith spoke.
well, don't know how you feel about 1t,
he said, "but as far as I'm concerned, think
Rollo's adventures have gone far enough. We
can't pull anything better than our club house
stunt tonight and the whole affair is getting
q little too dangerous for comfort. What do
you think?"

manded "n leave him here he's sure to

give everything away"
Lets roll him up in some Of this canvas,
weight it with stones, and drop 1t in the lake."
Keith suggested. "Rollo deserves q decent
burial, anyway"
Mary and Bill agreed at oncee A few minutes
later they had gathered some heavy stones
from the lake shore, and the three sections OF
the sea serpent were wrapped in an improvised
canvas bag. Then they padded out TO where
the water was deep, and solemnly dropped the
bag overheard

mo, and neither will anybody else at Lake
Toqua," laughed Keith.
Keith was right. The next day the whole
colony was agog with the appearance Of the
monster of the club house, and the excitement
was greater than ever before But when
several weeks passed, and the sea serpent failed
to be seen again, 1t was generally agreed that
some Of the revolver shots had taken effect,
and that the serpent had been killed
But many of the cottagers are still o little
nervous about going out on the lake at night.
And nobody but Mary, Keith and Bill Is abso-
mtely certain that the monster Of Lake Toqua
may not suddenly appear again.

INSTALLMENT ".

ETH and Bill peered over their shoulders
- into the gloom. Mary was right.
X Twenty yards behind them, keeping
N close to the wooded shore, came
another canoe.
"In bet it's Fred Linke," whispered
Bin. II just know he's suspicious Of us in this
whole sea serpent business"
Mary, who had pulled sweater on over her
bathing suit, now took it off.
"n it's Fred I'll give him the scare of his
life" she said In a low voice. Hold the canoe
steady. I'm going over the side. Then keep
padding slowly and be ready to pick me up
again"
They could only guess at what she had in
mind but they obeyed her. Silently Mary
slipped into the water and swan as quietly as
possible toward the approaching canoe. While
It was still a good distance away, she sank
beneath the surface and continued under water.
She gauged the distance well and as her
head broke the surface again she found herself
just a few feet behind the pursuing canoe.
And she could tell by the shape Of the paddler's
head that it really was Fred Lnke.
Mary acted quickly. She dived again and
came up with q great splash directly behind
the canoe. Placing her mouth on the surface
Of the water, she uttered a great seal-hke snort.
Then she sank once more.
At the sudden commotion behind him, Fred
Linke almost leaped from the canoe. He
uttered a strangled cry and ga1ed wide-eyed at
the water. There was nothing to be seen.
Then something came up under the canoe
and almost heaved it out of the water. At
the same moment there came a scratching
sound on the hard canvas of the boat.

the boys had turned their canoe and were pad

beside them They held the craft steady while
she clambered aboard. Hastily she removed her
bathing cap letting her dry hair fluff out, and
pulled on the sweater.

to Fred We have perfect alibi"
The boys stroked strongly and In minute
they were alongside the other boy, who stopped
his padding and turned panic-stricken eyes
toward the rays of Keiths fiashlight
"Oh, it's you," said Keith in feigned surprise.
"Did you let out that awful how'll"
"Y-yes," gulped Fred Linke through chatter
ing teeth. "The sea serpent! It came up right
behind me. Then it almost upset my canoe
and tried to crawl in. heard its claws on the
canvas"
did you see it?" demanded Keith, somehow
restraining his laughter.
'T saw its head" gasped Fred, whose i'm
agination was working overtime. TT was
hideous"
"Oh, I think you're dreaming" scoffed Mary
I'VE weren't very far up the shore and we
didn't hear anything"
"An right" cried Fred BE darned fools II
you want to. But I'm getting out Of here"
IA /TTH that he gave a great pull with his
w paddle and sent his canoe out into the
lake. Sitting their laughter as best they could,
the two boys turned their canoe and continued
on toward the boat house.
I'VE certainly fooled him." giggled Mary.
HE saw all three of us in the canoe only half
minute after he thought he saw the serpent.

Rent Is Won for
EviCted Families
In WilkeS-Barre

BY a Mine Worker Correspondent
WILKES BARRE, Pa. = Three
families with their small children
we're put out on the street here
after many appeals to the local
poor Board and the relief Board to
pay their rent. AS soon as the
wilkes-B Unemployment Coun-
Gil learned of this they took up the
case and forced the Poor Board to
give them cash money so they could
rent house.
They have a system here of pro-
viding shelter for unemployed work
ers and their families. 1t works like
this. If you happen to live in one
of the houses owned by the coal
companies you are likely to get
your rent paid regular, but if you
live in a house owned by some one
who only owns one house or so, then
the Poor Board tells you to move
out and stick the owner and they
will pay one months rent in another
house. But they pay only the one
months rent. In this way they will
keep you moving all over the city
The home owners have become wise
to this trick and will not rent their
houses TO any one who is on relief
The Unemployed Councils have
many of these rent cases and are
starting a campaign to force the
relief board to pay the rent in the
home the worker is living in, anc
not have them moving all over the
city,
The workers here are very much
interested in the Unemployment
Councils and are building in some
of the towns where the Unem-
ployed League has been established
a long time, as the Unemployed
League officials take up the cases OF
the workers behind closed doors
with the relief officials and work
hand in glove with the local poll
ticians.
At the last meeting of the Wilkes
Barre Council we had 80 cases tc
take up with relief board At the
next meeting we are going to or
ganize a womens division and &
single mems division. We will bring
the Daily Worker into all our &C
tivities.
