wouldn't have that.

While Tilly hid beneath the bed
so no one could pull her tooth,
Uncle Wiggily hoped off to the
woods to think of a way to Go what
must be done.
That tooth must come out" said
the rabbit gentleman.
Tilly's tooth had been loose three
or four days. She found the loose
tooth when she awakened one morn
ing and by pushing with her tongue
she discovered that something was
the matter in the front of her
mouth. I forgot to tell you Tilly's
loose tooth was a front one.
"Oh, Jingle Oh, Jangle!" cried
Tilly to the twin rabbits. MY front
tooth feels awful funny"

HUNTERS TRESPASSTNG

AT the risk of having some dove hunt
er walk in and give US a dose Of the me-
tallic substance usually pumped into the
birds, we are going to join our protest
to that of several subscribers who called
in today to state that they do not think
a cemetery is a proper place for hunt
ing.
We have never heard the term applied
to cemeteries out in this section, but
back in the east they are frequently re-
ferred to as Gods Acre" The term is
applied with the greatest of respect and
reverence.
Death places all in very particular
category Men uncover and women bow
their heads in the presence of the dead,
even though the deceased may be un-
known to them, or might even have been
an enemy. In war, death wipes out all
differences, the men of one side paying
a soldiers homage to a dead enemy.
There is nothing particularly wrong
about hunting in a cemetery. 1t cannot
disturb the dead, who are beyond dis
turbance. but it smacks of irreverence.
It is a refusal to recognize one Of the lit
tie things which indicate good breeding,
and a respect for custom and lnstltu-
tions.
We have no doubt those reported to
have been hunting in the cemetery are
good fellows. Most hunters are. They
probably would be the first to regret
having taken such a step when 1t Is point
ed out to them that it is bit indelicate
to say the least.
There are plenty of other places in the
county were dove hunting can be enjoy
ed and enjoyed successfully, without
venturing into what most of US have
been taught to regard as sacred pre-
cincts.
The very fact that some-and they
positively cannot be classed as 'long
hairs'-object to the shooting, should be,
and we believe will be, tip to the hunt
ers to find other locations.

or memorials will take.
Such names as Irwin Cobb, Senator

Garner are guarantee that the funds will
be properly administered Jesse H.

"DONT QUOTE
ME"
BY United Press

WASHINGTON. Sept. 23.-JuSt a
year and one month after his sud-
den death, the late Speaker Henry
T. Rainey Of Illinois has become
the subject of a unique and heat
ed popularity contest.
The contest centers around a
dozen portraits of the late speaker
from which must be selected the
picture which viii nang perman-
entity in the speakers lobby.
Whetting interest in the compe-
tition is the sum of $500 which
congress appropriated to pay for
the painting. There is also the
prestige that will go to the VIM
ming artist.
The portrait is being selected by
the house library committee. After
six months OF elaboration it ap-
pears little closer to agreement
than when it started. Complicat-
ing the selection is the fact that
new portraits have been submitted.
The committee started off with
five pictures. Now it has II from
from which to choose.
Hopeful of getting out of its di-
lenama. the committee has arrang-
cd an informal poll and jury. The
portraits have been hung in the
committee room and Chairman
Kent Keller CDem) Illinois, asks
every visitor who comes in which
picture he likes best.
Keller keeps tabs on the results.
The latest count showed a paint
ing by Toward Chandler Christy
slightly ahead.
Keller, one-time miner, lawyer
and newspaper publisher, is keep
ing mum on his own opinion. He
said the principal issue appears to
be whether the painting should
portray Rainey as he appeared as
speaker or as ne looked some 20
years ago.
The opinion of most artists, -
Keller said seems to be that a
man should be painted as he was
when in the prime Of life"
Keller revealed that a new and
disconcerting factor has now been
introduced in the controversy. A
close relative OF Rainey's sent in
photograph study of the speaker,
showing him smoking a pipe. A
suggestion that an oil painting be
made from the photograph accom-
panied the picture
While this remains a possibility,
Keller said he thought most mem
bers Of the committee believed this
portrait would be too informal to
hang as the official picture in the
lobby.
