and Mrs. TWistytail didn't want her
guests to be uncomfortable. So she
had big fire built in the furnace.
Well, Uncle Wiggily tried to turn
the valve, but it stuck, and he
couldn It quite do it, no matter how
he puffed and painted.
"Oh, my!' he gasped "This
certainly is sticky valve!'
He rested for a moment, and it
was so warm in the room that he
thought he ID open the window a
bit. This he did. And all of a
sudden he saw the window fly open
and the bad old Fox appeared ready
to jump into the room
You should have heard all those
ladies cry:
"Save us, Uncle Wiggily! Don It
let that Fox in here!'
'There didn't t seem to be any way
Uncle Wiggily could prevent the Fox
from springing into the room. His
head was already in, right over the
radiator, and he was growing:
!! "Ah, it IS nice and warm in here!
I think I'll come in!"
Uncle Wigglly was so frightened
that he forgot his speech, but he
remembered about the radiator, and
he reached down and turned the
valve-the wrong way! He opened
1t wide!
Siss-s-S!' went the steam, right
! in the Fox IS facet
"Ouch!' he yelled. "Gracious
goodness me! l IN all steamed up!
Oh, myl Let me out of here!o
And he leaped from the window
and ran away as fast as his legs
could carry him!
And that's how Uncle Wiggily
stopped the Fox from breaking up
the meeting of the Ladies' club.
Afterward he managed to shut the
steam off and made his speech,
without forgetting a word. All the
ladies said it was the best speech
they ever heard. And now, tomor-
row night, if the monkey wrench
doesn' stumble over the doorsill
and bump the Morris chair SO 1t
grunts. I'll tell you about Uncle
Wiggily in deep snow.

CURING 4 COLD

Perhaps some of our local medcos will
throw rocks at Us for calling attention to
the article on page one of last nights
Press, but we are willing to take the
chance and suggest that valley "snif-
flerS" might do we'll to cut out the article
and put its instructions to use.
The common, garden-variety of cold
is familiar to 9l2 out of every 10 per-
sons. 1t can be dangerous, but more Of
ten than not it is just a nuisance.
Methods in use by the government to
cure colds among workers in Washington,
are described in the article, and while
there is no guarantee attached, the treat
ment is (like reports on stocks and honds)
presumed to be founded on authentic in
formation.
The reader is warned that Washington
workers are reported as afraid to catch
colds any more, preferring to dodge the
treatment which the writer of the article
seems to consider somewhat heroic.
To one of some experience in such
things, however, it doesn't seem any more
heroic than the old-fashioned mustard
plaster recipe, the effectiveness of which
is not to be disputed, but the effective
ness is obtained only at a great cost of
personal discomfort
1t may come as a surprise to some who
read the article, to note that "spiritus
frumenti' is not even mentioned as an
effective cold remedy. If the Latin des-
ignation is puzzler, we hasten to ex-
plain that it means whisky. Old John
Barleycorn as cure for colds, has no
mean following. In fact, during the days
when the medico's prescription was
prerequisite, cold was always consider
ed legitimate excuse for getting one.
AS to which variety of treatment is to
be preferred-empirin, ephedrin, atro-
pine sulphate ETC., as against "spiritus
frumenti"-we are not even going to tip
our hand. Those interested may try both.
On only one point have we firm deter
minaton-no castor oil.

DEPORT THE AGTTATORS

We agree with the suggestion of the
| 3rawley News, that a check-up of agita-
.ors connected with the present lettuce
workers strike be conducted, for the pur
pose of ascertaining if any of them are
|aliens, and if so, that steps be taken for
heir deportation.
Granting that it is not desirable that
American citizens should be linked up
with radical organizations, such citizens
nave that right if they prefer that sort of
hing, but the alien, who is not citizen,
S something else again. He has no right
10 stir up agitation in an American indus
Try, and quick stop should be made of
his activities.
We are not advised just how active the
Immigration service has been in investi-
eating leaders of the present strike, but
lit does seem, that there is fertile field
|for it to function.
The Brawley News declares that the
|agitators are from countries other than
Mexico and that they are using the Mex
lean laborers who form the bulk of the
strikers, to stir up trouble.
The Mexican consul has wisely counsel
led his sfellow-countrymen to obey the laws
|bf the United States while they are here,
hnd has sought to discourage them from
Following the lead of the radicals.
A firmer hand in dealing with the
strike leaders, is also desirable. Chasing
The strikers from one point to another
has resulted in week long game of tag
between the strikers and officers. 1t has
been necessary to arrest some of the
strikers, but the leaders have not as yet
been bothered. Were they rounded up
the strike would end quickly.
Los Angeles mas adopted the policy of
rounding up leaders of similar strike
and deporting those who are not citizens.
The same element is fostering the strike
bin the valley and they should be accord
ed the same treatment.
