TloRD offers two new cars for 1888
the Standard Ford va and the
De Luxe Ford Va. They are different
in appearance - but built to the same
high standard Of mechanical excel
lence - on the same chassis.
Because people liked our 1887 car
so well, they bought more than of any
other make. They liked its looks, its
smooth, economical performance, and
the way it handled. We have i'm.
proved on that car in the newly
styled Standard Ford va.
But some folks wanted still more
size and style, with the same Ford

Browns Boy suspected that one Of the
Mice he had caught was the singer,
but was refusing to sing in captivity
Then early one morning, as Farmer
Browns Boy was dressing, he heard
that song. Creeping softly down
stairs he peeped into the sitting
room where was one of the Gagged
Mice. 1t was the singer. Straightway
Farmer Browns Boy got out the traps
that kill and set them in all the like
ly places. Now that the singer was
safe, he must rid the house of Mice or
Mother Brown would have no peace.

crawl through because he was very
small but it was about 80 feet above
the ground. In moving about the room
the lawyer discovered a rope coled
in one corner. He threw the rope out
the window after tying one end but
discovered that it was short of the
ground by is feet. He was timid about
dropping that far so he pulled back
the rope and gave the matter much
thought. Finally he hit upon a so,u-

two pieces together and found that
he could slide down and reach the
ground without drop. How did he
do it?

ARE OVER" SAID NIBBLER TO
MRS. NIBBLER.
Nibbler were suspicious of the traps
that Farmer Browns Boy set, and,
being suspicious, they avoided them.
One was a little cage trap to catch
Mice alive and unharmed. Nlbbler
had recognized that the instant he
saw it. He had been caught in it
when he was young and lacking in
wisdom. Later he had escaped. but
he never had forgotten that trap. So
now he warned all the children to
keep away from it. Some needed, but
others did not, and less than two
hours after it was set it held prls-
ener.
Other traps were of Farmer Browns
Boys own making, so arranged that
a Mouse reaching for a tempting It'd
bit would drop into a glass jar and
find himself prisoner there. Nib
bier was the first to discover one of
these Instantly he was suspicious,
Never had he seen anything of the
kind before, but instantly he sus-
pected q trap and passed along word
of warning. OF course, it wasn't heed
ed and presently he saw one of the
young Mice running around in jar
unable to get out Then Nibbler
knew that his suspicious were well
founded.
Il guess our good times are over" !"
said Nibbler to Mrs. Nibbler.
What do you mean?" asked Mrs.
Nibbler in her Squeaky voice.
We have been living high replied
Nlbbler. II don't remember ever be-
fore being able to get so many good
things to eat with nothing to fear
from Black Pussy the Cat, and with
no traps to avoid. I don't understand
it at all, but that is the way it has
been, as you know"
Mrs. Nibbler nodded. "I know"
said she.
1T has been so that the children
hardly know what fear is" continued
Nibbler. They come and go as they
please, where they please, when they
please Now all this is at an end, and

I feel it in my bones that others will
be. l suspect that it will soon be so
that we will be unable to find any
thing to eat without danger of fall
ing into a trap. Do you know what
! think?"
What do you Think" replied Mrs
Nibbler
II think we may have to move back
TO the barn" declared Nibbler.
Mrs. Nibbler sighed. Il hate to
think of it." said she. 1T has been

Nibbler and Mrs. Nibbler continued

children were caught and each was
kept in separate cage They were
taken out to the barn and there were
kept prisoners, but were well fed and
cared for. One at time they were

there for day or two. This was after

We cannot help but feel that North

bid. At the end Of the hand he COM
planned bitterly of his bad luck, and
when asked why he had never bid
no-trump, he replied that he never did
so when holding only one stopper in
the opponents suit. While this is
generally good policy, in this particu-
lar case it did not apply as Norths
queen jack-small of spades solidified
his partners suits, and there were
bound to be enough additional tricks
to round out no-trump game.
When West opened the ace of clubs,
East gave some deep thought TO the
situation. While he could easily dis

trump the second, there was only one
possibility OF again getting West on

two diamonds, showing at least three
OF the suit and probably all four.
East finally decided that his best hope
OF defeating the contract was to trump
his partners ace, which he proceeded
to do.
East, of course, returned a diamond
and the partners cross-ruffed the first
four tricks-the only way of defeat
ing the contract since failure to trump
the first club would have prevented
East from giving his partner more
than one ruff.

A husband who was of the opinion that his wife should supp port the family was arraigned in city court today before Judge Edward Masc0IO. His wife testi- fled that he had worked but little since their marriage while she was employed regularly until 2 short time ago when i'll health forced her to give up her job.
 She stood her husband well enough, said the wife, until yes- terday when her husband got up long enough to eat and bank the f.e, suggested to her that she go look for job and went back to bed. Judge Mascolo instructed Probation Officer Emil Humniel to try to get the man . Job, and warned the accused to hold the job when he got 1t.
 In another non-support case, a 23-year- old husband was arraigD- ed on his wffe's complaint that he had beaten her regularly since their marriage two years ago. The wife, now 17, has two children.
 'T never beat her so that it showed" said the husband.

 Work with Children
 The circulation of children's books from the central library was 54,428, an increase of 1000 volumes over the 1895 circulation. Gains in chil- dren's circulation were recorded also at the three branch libraries. Water vile branch showed only slight gain, but Rose Hill branch and Brooklyn branch recorded gains Of 938 and 2,915 volumes respectively.
 For the school year 1935-1936. 15,852 books in 199 classroom libra ries circulated 77,637 times. This school deposit circulation shows a loss of 9,481 volumes as compared with that for the school year 1934- 1885. This loss is perhaps traceable to lack of funds for providing enough new titles each year to stim- ulate the reading interest of the modern child. It may be further accounted for in a decrease in school registration, with consequent de- crease in the number of classrooms to which books were sent. Only 199 boxes were needed this year as com- pared with 210 boxes sent out for the school year 1934-1935.
 During the summer months, vaca- ton reading clubs were conducted at the central children's room and at the three branches with hope of introducing new and better auth ors to children, thus encouraging good reading habits and developing reading taste. Enrolment in these clubs numbered no. The books read and reported on were appar- ently keenly enjoyed and similar attractive and stimulating reading program is being planned for the coming summer. As in former years, collections of books were sent to the playgrounds at Hamilton and Full ton Parks and to the North End Y. M. 0. A., for circulation during the
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-02-03

months of July and August. The Y. M. c. A. camp and a church va cation school were also supplied with books.
 A revised and enlarged picture collection resulted in a gain of over 800 pictures circulated for, the year, 2,59O being charged out as against 2,020 in 1895. The expansion Of the picture collection begun last year was continued, the most important addition to the collection being the eight units needed to complete our set of Compton,s Teaching Units.
 Once again, through the splendid cooperation of the schools, Book Week was observed from November 16 to 21 with a display of posters made by school children to illus trate their favorite book titles. All schools were represented in this display. In addition, five programs, handled entirely by the children, were given by five different schools. The programs given and the schools responsible for them this year were as follows:
 A Scene from the Constitutional Convention-Chase School, eighth grade.
 Book Reports-Driggs School, eighth grade.
 Snow White: marionette show Sacred Heart School seventh grade.
 Books: 8 play-Sprague School, sixth grade.
 Books: 8 play-Barnard School, fifth grade.
 Work behind the scenes included the revising and checking of the card catalog and shelf list, a task representing weeks of routine work; the compiling of geography and his- tory lists for each grade, following the course of study in the Water bury schools; and the supervision of three National Youth Administra- tion groups doing recreational work with children at the branch libra ries. In addition:
 Forty-f1ve classes came to the children's room for instruction in the use of catalog and reference ma terial; 56 story hours, with an av- craze attendance of 24 children,
