Before they will investigate.

Before they will investigate.
Paddy the Beaver.
DADDY the Beaver was uneasy.
Mrs. Paddy WAS uneasy. That
uneasiness had begun when they had
heard the sound of an AK. Some one
was chopping wood xnd doing it close
to their pond, the pond which YVES
theirs because they had made 1t. That
sound could mean only one thing
the presence Of one or more Of those
two-legged creatures who most often
were to be feared and so seldom trust
ed. OF all the people who lived in
the Green Forest only the Wood
peckers could chop wood, and it made
. different sound. So there could be
no mistake, and Mr.. and Mrs. Paddy
became uneasy, and that uneasiness
grew.
II don't like it," said Paddy.
Perhaps some one is just cutting a
tree" replied Mrs. Paddy. IF that Is
al, 1t won't do us any harm"
Perhaps" agreed Paddy, but just
the same I don't like it, II any trees
are to be cut around here we are the
ones to do It,"
The sound Of chopping didn't last
long. When 1t ceased Paddy and Mrs
Paddy had . feeling of relief. For q
little while they were no longer I'M
easy. But 1t was for only a little
while. Paddy was the first to feel the
return Of that uneasiness. For a time
he didn't know why he was uneasy
He just was, that was all. He had a
feeling that something was wrong
but what 1t was he didn't know.
After the sound of the chopping had
ceased he and Mrs. Paddy had re-

THIRTEEN ARE
 UNDER ARREST

Cleveland, July 26-(UP)-Thir- teen men, including Robert Glenn, member of the Maryland house of delegates, were arrested for illegal picketing today as Republic Steel corporation reopened the last of its strike-bound plants. Ninety steel workers returned to work in the N. & G. Taylor tin plate plant, a Re- public subsidiary, under the protec- ton of nearly 150 state and city po- licemen and deputies. The plant was closed May 26.
 Police said the 13 men were ar- rested for violating a city ordinance which limited the number of pickets at the plant to six. Names of the six designated pickets were furn- ished officials. Those who appeared on the picket lines and whose names were not on the list were arrested and were to be given a hearing in justice court later today.

'GO VEGETARIAN
 AND AID HEALTH
Director Says Vegetables Contribute to Mineral
 Content of Diet

As an aid to health, going vege- tarian" this summer was urged by Elizabeth c. Nickerson, director oi the Bureau of Public Health h. struction of the State Department of Health, in the departments weekly broadcast today. Besides ad- ding freshness and variety, fresh fruits and vegetables make a lib- eral contribution to the mineral and Wtamin content of the diet, whetl1- CT served raw or so cooked as to retain the valuable health elements of the vegetables, the director said
 Miss NickerSon suggested market ing in person rather than by tele- phone, since by going to the mar ket one discovers the great variety of fresh foods now available at fa- vorable prices, and is convinced that there is no excuse for not en- riching daily menus with fruits and vegetables. While such citrus fruits as grapefruit and oranges are more or less scarce at this season there are raspberries, peaches, me- Ions and other fruits to whet the appetite and help to make break fast more delightful while iced to- mato juice is always ready.
 Will "Pep Up"
 Those who have made a practice of including vegetables and salads in the menus all winter, will go a step further during the summer and substitute vegetable plate now and then for the main course at luncheon or dinner, Miss Nick erson said. Three or four veget. ables, quickly steamed or cooked with the least amount of water pos sible so that they will retain thei health elements, together with { green salad and side dish of cottag cheese followed by a delicatel. baked or boiled custard, O possibly ice cream for dessert vii not only give satisfaction but vii "pep up" hot weather jaded appe tites. An aethetic sense is needed to arrange such foods successfull and the vegetables should be servet so that the use of so many vivi, colors at the same time do not con flict. This does not hold true 0 salads, however, since the fresl crispness of salad greens is en hanced by a riot of color.
 Miss Nickerson commended tn new popularity of the salad bowl and suggested its use not only a home but on picnics, since a salat will lend just those refreshing qual ities often lacking when such dr. foods as sandwiches. hot dogs, cake and cookies are served. And don forget, she added, to top off the pic nic lunch with a juicy fruit. fo drinks are often at a premium or such occasions.
