UNCLE WIGGILY'S BLUE JAY

Once upon a time. when Uncle
Wiggily was hopping through the
woods, thinking that Thanksgiving
WASH t far off, and that Christmas
was not much further away, all of
sudden the rabbit gentleman
heard some one calling to him:
"Hey! Hey Hey!'
"That sounds like Mr.. TWisty-
tail shouting at me SO will wait
for him. said Uncle Wiggily to
himself. 'Well, I haven't been
out with Twisty this week. III
wait for him to catch up to me. -
Uncle Wiggily sat down on log
to wait. But though he waited and
looked back through the trees he
did not see the fat gentleman pig.
"Twisty is very slow this morn
ing,' said Uncle Wiggily. 'I'u
hop along slowly as it is cold sit
ting STILL AS he hoped along
he heard again the voice calling
"Hey Hey! Hey!'
"Come on, Twistyl I'm waiting
for you'll" shouted the rabbit. but
hurry! I'm cold!' Then the voice
said:
Fish HOOk.'
"Fish hook Fish hook! Fish
hook!"
"No, I haven't any fish hook
I'm not going fishing!' said Uncle
Wiggily with a laugh. "I'm just
looking for an adventure and II
you want to come with me, Twisty-
tail, waddle along faster.'
Then a voice over Uncle Wiggi
ly's head spoke and said:
81 am not your pig friend, Uncle
Wiggily. I am a poor Blue Jay
bird and I am tangled in an old
honeysuckle vine so I can't get
loose.
"Was that you shouting Hey
Hey at me?" asked the bunny
"And also Fish hookl' Was it?"

IMPROVING THE CITY

Need for improvement in El Centro's

Discussions are now being held in an ef-

The plan certainly has plenty of merit
+ one is to judge by reports of SBRA
projects in various parts of the country,
some of which did not appear to have
public necessity" stamped on them as
emphatically as need for an adequate
sewer system in community of over
10000 persons.
1t is to be hoped that the present dis
.ussions will be successful in convincing
SERA officials of the merit of the pro-
ect and that they will give it their ap-
3roval
There is another local project in which
The Press and numerous businessmen
ire interested-the State street extension
across the railroad tracks.
The desirability of this project being
pushed to conclusion is apparent to any
,ne interested in the growth and devel-
opment of this city. With only Orange,
Main and Commercial streets providing
commercial routes across the city, COM
nunication between the business district
and the industrial section on the east
side operates under handicap.
State street is a commercial artery.
1t cannot be construed as anything else.

S unsatisfactory and is glaring bit of
municipal inefficiency.
Now is the opportune time to get ac-

complex seems to be growing with
the season, for Klein has batted less
than .225 during the first 10 games of
the Cubs present home stand.
Nor does the lively ball seem to
help Klein. Glancing over the aver
ages, one finds such players as Ur-
banski of the Braves, Joe Moore of
the Giants and Jim Collins of the
Cards hammering better than $50,
and in previous years none of those
fellows could be compared with Klein
as batter.
Maybe Klein will learn to hit on
Wrigley Field. 1t took Babe Herman,
lusty hitter with Brooklyn and Gin
cinnati, better than full season to
accustom himself to the ranges of
Wrigley Field and he almost lost his
place on the Cubs before he finally
began hitting over 300.
However, the season is nearing the
halfway mark, and, unless Klein goes
on sudden and long rampage, his
batting mark will show a heavy
shrinkage over previous years and the
Cubs may question the worth of his
purchase.

Once LoWIy Stock for

n rEW LONDON, Conn, June
M 21.-The quiet, sleepy old
" port of New London,
l. famed for the part it
played in early American sea-
going history and the fact that
here Harvard and Yale row four
miles every year, stirred with ex-
citement today such as it hasn't
known in decades.
There were but two topics of con-
versation, in barber shops, on street
corners, down on the ancient wharf
where fishermen still bring their catch
in the late afternoons and hawk their
wares, alive and swimming about in
tanks In the boats, to the thrifty
housewives who shop from one to the
other.
The one event foremost in the citi-
zens' minds was the impending visit of
President Roosevelt for the regatta,
in which his son, Franklin D., jr, will
pull the No. oar in the Harvard
freshmen shell tomorrow morning.
The other was the startling perform
ance of the Harvard varsity on the
eve of the seventh-second meeting of
these ancient rowing rivals, perform
ance that completely revised a situ-
alton that previously had made Yale's
sprint champions a solid favorite.
TN THE dusk of last evening the
Harvard varsity that hasn't won a
race all year at two miles rode
flooding tide down the placid Thames
and was clocked in a surprise four
mile workout at 20 minutes 444s sec
onds. This was considerable back of
the record of 20:02 made by the 1915
Crimson eight. 1t wasn't as good as
the 20:44 these same Harvard huskies.
