UNCLE WIGGILY'S JUNE BUG

One evening, when all the little
bunny rabbit children had hoped
up to their beds, and when Uncle
Wiggily was reading the paper in
his hollow stump bungalow, all of
a sudden his wife said:
"Therel He's in again!"
who is?" asked Uncle Wiggily,
looking at Nurse Jane. She was
mending holes in the Dummies
stockings.

ed the rabbit lady. She, also, was
mending stockings for there were
many with holes in them.
Uncle Wiggily heard a buzzing,
humming sound and a large, brown
bug banged against the electric
light and fell smack down on the
table.
"Oh, don't let him get in my
hair!' cried Nurse Jane.
Don't let him get in my earl"
exclaimed the rabbit lady, She
dropped the stocking she was
mending and covered her ears with
her paws. Take him out, Wiggyl'
BY this time the June Bug, who
was a little dizzy from having
bumped into the light, began crawl
ing across table to Uncle Wiggily
The Bug fitted his wings and

WASHINGTON. June. 10. U.P -
Wisconsin, is worried about the re-
putation that the house of repre-
sentatives is getting among people
who come to Washington to see the
nations lawmakers make laws.
The trouble is that most of the
time when the sightseers come in
to the house gallery they see only
a handful OF representatives on
the floor engaging in desultory de-
bate. 1t makes a bad impression
O'Malley says.
The constituents go back home
and start writing nasty letters to
their congressman, asking why he
doesn't pay more attention to busi-
ness and why Goes he think he was
sent to Washington, anyhow?
O'Malley thinks this is very un-
fair.
He points out that the reason
congressman don't spend all their
time on the floor is that they have
important committee meetings and
hearings to attend. Also their con-
stituents write them about various
affairs to be Strengthened out with
government departments.
That keeps q congressman on the
run all the time, he said.
If the congressman did spend his
time on the floor and let this other
business go hang, the constituents
would be angrier than ever, OMal-
ley thinks.
O'Malley believes he has a solu-
ton of the dilemma. He wants
congress to authorize the printing

Mr.. Longears hoped out of the
door but the June Bug flew out OF
the window And it's a good thing
he did. For just then the Fox was
going to climb in the window to
get Uncle Wiggily. But the June
Bug banged the Bad Chap in the
eye very hard and tickled him with
the scratchy legs. The Fox was so
surprised that he gave loud howl
and fell backward out of the win
dow and then he ran away lippity
hoppity.
Nice work, June Bugl" laughed
Uncle Wiggily. You saved me from
being nibbled." Then the rabbit
played tag out in the June night
with his buzzy friend and every
body was happy except the Fox. So

REMEMBER JUNE %


Less than two weeks remain before
the arrival of Imperial Valley Day at the
California-Pacifi International Expos
ition, which is scheduled for Sunday,
June %.
Under the direction of a committee
appointed for the purpose, a large num-
ber of Imperial Valley men, women and
children, are at work preparing for a
two hour floor show to be given as the
high spot of the days entertainment.
Arrangements for other phases of the
program are being worked out by the
committee and It is preparing to make
the day one of the outstanding incidents
on the entire exposition calendar.
The purpose of this article is to bring
Imperial Valley Day before the minds of
the people of the valley. The commit
tee is doing its part; the persons volun-
teering for the entertainment program
are doing theirs; the produce men have
promised to supply plenty of melons for
the occasion.
1t is up to the rank and file to give
those who are endeavoring to put over
the program, their fullest support This
can best be done by attending the expos
ition on June %.
The committee is hoping to have be-
tween 5000 and 5000 persons from the
valley in San Diego on that day. There
should be twice the maximum estimate
if the public can be made to realize the
benefit which Imperial Valley will de-
rive from the occasion.
This community will be on display be-
fore thousands of people from all parts
of the nation and indeed from the world.
1t will behoove US to put our best foot
forward-in fact the more feet the bet
ter.
Now is the time to plan affairs SO that
you can be included among the valley
ties to take part in Imperial Valley day.
