Peter. "Br-r-rl The very thought of
that cold water makes me shiver."
Me, too,'' replied Johnny. But
then you and haven't waterproof

"She has a long way to 60. I do
hope she will be able to make It," re-
marked Johnny Chuck. II think she
is taking big chance. even for SO
good a swimmer as she is"
''It is better than staying here and
perhaps starving to death. If could
swim like that I would take the
chance, just as she has," replied Peter
"I believe you would" replied Johnny
Taking chances without thinking be-
| forehand seems to be habit with
you, Peter. That Is what you did
when, just out of curiosity you went
over to look at the Big River. and now
see the f1x you are In. There are
times when it is wise to take chance,
but taking chances when it isn't neces-
sary is worse than foolish"
do you think that Mrs. Jerry is
taking a foolish chance!" Peter asked
II don't know" confessed Johnny
Then he abruptly sat up that he might
see better. "Yes, I dol" he added.
She isn't taking a chance, after all
I guess she knew what she was about. u
Peter also sat up to look. He saw
Mrs. Jerry sitting on that floating log
which until now neither of them had
noticed, or if they had, had given NO
thought to. There she sat, resting,
and she could sit there as long as she
felt like it. She was nearly or quite
half way to the shore. There was no
longer any doubt in the minds Of
Peter and Johnny that she would
make 1t.

little people of the Green
Meadows who were victims Of the great
flood had drifted about without once
coming near enough to land to even
arouse hope in the members OF its
strange crew. They had seen others
as badly off themselves, or worse
off. Some were drifting on small logs
or tree trunks that gave them barely
room to cling. But in their own. fright
and misery they gave little thought to
these unfortunates.
At last late in the afternoon their
little craft caught in little clump of
young trees whose bushy tops were
just above the water, caught and held
fast. Their voyage was ended for the
time being, anyway. They had drifted
in far enough for them to see the
shore clearly. 1t seemed very near,

up. But when they came to look at
the wide stretch of water still separat-

still was too far away for any of the
them to swim, with the possible ex-

she hesitated. 1t seemed so near, yet
really was so far, too far.
Anyway, we are not being carried
any farther away, and that is some
thing to be thankful for" said Johnny
Chuck as he looked longingly over to-

grumbled Peter.
Mrs. Muskrat said nothing. Half

wasn't moving much, for the water
was quiet and there was no wind.
"Good-by," said she suddenly and,
without another word, slipped into the
water. Peter and Johnny watched

Perfection Attained in Chi|ds Ensemble
Shows Economic Advantages
of Undergarments Made
to Match Dress.
BY BARBARA BELL.

N TOT in years has anything been
nj launched for children that
II quite approaches the perfec-
L ton of the practical. every
day ensembles that come in
two garments, and which make quick
work Of getting a child dressed, in two
simple operations, without bothering
with q miscellaneous assortment OF
complicated undergarments.
One of these matchless frocks Is
pictured today. 1t is English in type,
pleated from the shoulders and OPEN
ing in the front. The companion
view shows the self -helpfully cut back
of the accompanying undergarment,
the charm of which is further added
to by tiny pocket in the front that
may hold one or more Of child's
cherished possessions.
Apart from the initial economic
advantages of undergarments made to
match the dress, a busy mother finds
the responsibility of keeping tab on
elusive little undies greatly reduced.
New and interesting prints and
weaves are shown in these frocks.
The neatest of them are of conven-
tional design, and include checks, dia-
mond patterns, dots and stripes. When
bright flower prints are used, bright.
closely spaced effects, suggestive OF
gardens, are the favorites. While a
wide range Of colors, in the pastel
classification, Is shown in the best
shops, blue is said to be the color Of
highest importance, because Of the
pronounced preference for navy coats.
Barbara Bell pattern No. 1298-B is
designed in sizes 2, 3, 4, and years.
Size requires 234 yards of either IS
or SO inch material, Is yard Of con-
trasting material.

Rebidding After Doubling.

"HIS Is undoubtedly the time

not?

Public Drinking Hit

Gillespie Warns That Arrest Will
Follow Violation Of

that drinking hard" liquor in a
public place is illegal, Sheriff w. L..
Gillespie announced yesterday that
his office will in the future enforce
this law strictly. All apprehended
violators will be dealt with accord
ing to the law, he declared.
"Public drinking is absolutely
against the law and must be stop
ped,' Sheriff Gillespie stated. "The
state law provides severe penalties,
ranging from fines to long Jail
sentences after the first offense."
He explained that drinking either
hard liquor or beer in or near dance
halls is forbidden. Consumption of
either beer or liquor ON the high
ways or byroads also is banned UNI
der state law.
Can't Drink Beer Publicly
Beer may be consumed only in
establishments legally licensed to
sell it and in the home" he said.
lizard liquor must be taken to the
homes for consumption. 1t is
against the law to drink it else
where"
Sheriff Gillespie said that his
deputies have found that many
persons, when warned that drink
ing in public is not lawful, have
declared that under the Steele law
they have this privilege. Such is
not the case, he affirmed, and the
sheriff's office will no longer accept
ignorance of the law as an alibi to
avoid arrest.

who declared that there was moth
ing in the law specifying the exact
time county commissioners shall
spend on county work, md that the
charges aired in the anti-Laycock
newspaper we're unjust insiluations
against his character.
MIR. Gamble affirmed during the
session that MIR. Laycock had "nev-
err done anything irregular" in per-
forming his commissioner duties,
and criticised his opponents for
STOPPING to personal matters in
their efforts to bring about mis- de-
feat in the coming election.
Clearing up another charge which
had been made, involving the crit
icism that Mr.. Laycock was en-
deavoring to construct the Omak-
Disautel -Nespelem road because of
his interests in Moses Mountain
mining property, IL was explained
by R. l.. McNett, president of the
Biles-Coleman Lumber company,
that the property is not developed
and that it is located eight miles
from the route.
1t was also pointed out that a
CCC road to Moses Meadows has
been built, but that it does not con-
meet the mining property with the
main road.
An explanation of the charge that
"a county car had been damaged in
a wreck while Mr.. Laycock was
driving also was investigated. The
commissioner explained that he had
driven the car to Brewster on coun-
! ty business, and that the accident
might have happened to anyone.
Commenting on the charges Mr..
Gamble said:
IT cannot see anything wrong
With Mr.. Laycock's trip East last
summer. He handed in no expense
slip to the county board and did
not ask the county to bear any of
the expenses of the trip. 1t also is
impossible to expect every commits
sioner to attend all the meetings of
the board. Mr.. Farver was forced
to miss meetings when he was in
the hospital following wreck. Mr..
LdyCOCh llkCW1OC w Cto eAAAepHAS w cSV
tend meetings because OF injuries
received in a wreck. Neither of
them could be blamed for that"
Mr.. Gamble also stated that both
he and Mr.. Farver had signed the
resolution authorizing construction
of. the four mile road project from
Omak East, actually doing it in Mr..
Laycock's absence, and declared
that Mr.. Laycock did not have any
idea of building a road to the Moses
Mountain mining property when he
suggested the road.
Ask Commissioner Questions
Repeated queries about Mr.. Lay
cocks trip East and his reputed
personal interest in the Disautel
road were made by Chas. Rumbolz

had contributed communications

ted that nearly 300 people make
it their permanent home. The i'm
portance of the community as a

ture of road money on the route, he
said.
Tells Where Money Went
Mr.. Laycock, during the session,
explained that several other dist
riots had criticized him for his ex-
penditures of maintenance money
this year. He stated that he had
made every effort to expend this
money, slightly over $1,000, on
roads most needing it. The Omak
Lake road has received over 5000,
he said, and other districts have
received as much as could be taken
from the limited amount available.
Mr.. Laycock also affirmed that he
was not attempting to build a road
to the Grand Coulee dam, but that
he simply was building a badly
needed road. He explained that CO.
operation from the Indian depart
ment had been assured, while the
Omak Lake road could not be i'm

Also supporting Mr.. Laycock in
his defense of charges made against
him, was L. A. Gillespie, Brewster

that the meeting go on record as
