The first place he visited was an
old log partly under water. On the
part above water were several pieces
of carrot. Jerry swan along both
sides of that log and made sure that
there was no trap under water.
Then he crawled up on the bank be-
side that log and looked carefully
for signs of a trap. He could find
none. There certainly was no trap
where those pieces of carrot lay in
plain sight on that log.
It seemed to Jerry that he simply
must have those pieces Of carrot.
Evening star., 1938-12-27

He tried to turn his back on them
and go away, but he couldn't. He
knew he was foolish, but he finally,
very, very cautiously crept up on
that log until he could reach out
one paw and knock a piece of carrot
off. Nothing happened. Jerry
jumped down and ate that piece of
carrot with relish. Then he climbed
back and did the same thing to
another piece of carrot. Finally, he
had eaten the last piece of carrot
and nothing had happened.
Then Jerry visited In turn the

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS

Jerry Muskrat was puzzled. He
was very much puzzled. When he
discovered that the stranger had
left pieces of carrot and apple at
some of Jerry's favorite eating places
he had guessed at once that trap
had been set in each one of those
places. So, for a whole day he had
kept away from them. Then Curl
osity had been too much for him.
He just had to go over to see if
those delicious tid-bits were still
there.
Evening star., 1938-12-27

other places where the stranger had
left good things to eat. At each
place temptation proved too much
for him, and he ventured to take
those good things. He ate until his
stomach was full and then he car
ried what was left over to his house.
At none of those places could he
find the least sign of a trap.
The stranger came the next day
and left more good things, and that
night Jerry had another feast. The
following day the stranger did not
come, but the day after he did. AZ
Evening star., 1938-12-27

just scrambled up where the good
things were. You see, not once had
he found single thing wrong. He
was beginning to doubt that the
stranger was a trapper at all. In
fact, he was beginning to look on
the stranger as a very good friend
indeed.

before, he left good things to eat,
and, as before, Jerry got them to
the.last scrap.
But all the time Jerry was puz-
zled. He couldn't understand why
that stranger was bringing him all
those good things to eat. At the
same time, Jerry was growing care
less. He no longer used his eyes
and nose so carefully when he ap-
preached the places where those
good things were left. In fact, some-
times he was in such hurry to get
them that he didn't look at all, but

Wilkes County Man
Pans Gold Nuggets
From Stream There

After receiving a very favorable
report on one-ounce nugget and
other specimens sent to laboratories
for official test, A. T. Caudill, citi-
zen of the Springfield community in
Wilkes county has continued his
gold mining activities with renewed
energy.
On his farm in the foothil1 of the
Blue Ridge Mr.. Caudill found the
shining nugget in the bed of a small
stream. Other specimens were pan
ned from the gravel and tests
showed he had struck pay dirt.
Although he has not found any
more large nuggets, he has PANIED
out hundreds of small particles from
the size of chigger up to small
nuggets as large as grain of wheat
Surface gold mining like Mr.
Caudill is carrying on with the aid
of a small grandson and nephew is
quite interesting.

MILLION CHINESE ARE
NOW READY TO FIGHT

Shanghai, Tuesday, May 81
Chinese armies tOtaling more
than 100000 men were drawn
up along the Llng-hai railroad
today as GeneralissimO Chang
Kai-shek threw the pick of his
central government troops into
a showdown battle to save Han
kow, the temporary Chinese
capital.
The key point in the impend-
ing battle, which Japanese pre-
dicted would be "the bloodiest
of the war;" was expected to be
between Lanfeng and Cheng-
chow, the latter the junction
point Of the Lung-hai and Pei
ping HankOw railroads.
Two columns of Japanese
troops drove westward along
the Lung-hai to rescue famed
Lieut.. Gen. Kenji DOihara and
his 18th division, backed up
against the Yellow river north
west of Lafeng by Chinese ar
mics that have surrounded the
Japanese and are trying to hack
them to pieces with ancient field
artillery.

Gill out clip out and maiD

and gravel number of simple but
tedious operations are necessary.
Mr.. Caudill is using the sluice box
to facilitate the work.
The sand and gravel is placed in
a box at the upper end of the
trough and the box has screen bot
tom. Water pours from the stream
into the box and washes the sand
through the screen. The gravel is
stirred constantly and nuggets can
be seen easily in the water.
The sand which goes through the
screen in the bottom of the box gets
additional washing in the sluice
trough and cleats in the bottom of
the trough keep it from washing
down, although the lighter and larg-
er pieces naturally rise to the top
and are washed away.

CONTRIBUTIONS SOUGHT
FOR HEALTH DEPT,

Continued from Page One)
Health Nurse (Miss Weaver) has
rendered in the County this year.
The establishment of a Health De-
partment would bring the follow
ing additional services to the Coun-
ty: An adequate Venereal Disease
and tuberculosis program, an or
ganized program for maternal and
infant care including the supervi-
sion Of midwives, school health sup
ervision, an educational and super
visory program of sanitation, an i'm
munization program against Small
pox, Diptheria, Typhoid, etc., six
teen weeks of dental service to
school children, service to crippled
children, and communicable disease
control Space does not permit a
more complete statement.
'sNow here is the proposition the
State Board of Health is making us:
Ashe, Allegheny, and Watauga
Counties are to form a District
Health Dept, the services of ply
sicians, nurses, clerks, and sanitary
officers, and the expense of the vari-
Gus services. The State Board of
Health is asking Ashe for only ST.
400 of this amount, for the Watauga
year closing June 80, 1899, to carry
out this program. We have fairly
definite assurance that if ST. 500 can
be raised by voluntary contributions
the County Commissioners will pro-
vide the remainder needed. Ut
should be noted that the District
Program depends upon our action
Allegheny and Watauga are ready
with their rparts.)
"You can help in three ways
First, by sending a contribution
yourself. Make it at least as much
as you would have to pay for one
call of a physician to your home,
Second, by getting others to send
contributions. Get other people to
help. Get your church, Sunday
School, or any other organization
you are connected with, to help.
''Third, by giving this campaign
publicity. Talk it. Let people know
that you intend to help put this pro-
gram over. If you want speakers
for your Sunday School or organiza-
ton, let us know"

revenue of not less that sos, 100000
for the first years on up to 100000
90 for the last few years.
Of those levied amounts speci-
fled, the county agrees that not
over $4,000 of same shall be used
for operating expenses, but further
provides that the levy may be rails
ed.
Exhibit "a" shows statement of
bonds outstanding as at Dec. /, 1887.
Exhibit "B" shows the past due
interest in the amount of $274,907,-
A and exhibit co. in the pamphlet
shows the annual requirements for
the refunding plan. It provides for
the setting up of sinking fund.
In front Of the pamphlet is a letter
from Geo. H. Adams, chief of the
refinancing division of the Local
Government Commission, explain
ing to the bond holders that the plan
has been worked out after several
months of careful study.
Mr.. Adams sent a number of
copies of the Plan to Ira Johnston
and w. B. Austin for distribution,
together with this explanation:
'There is nothing in particular
that can be done at the present
time. AS soon as the holders have
had time to study the plan which
is being offered by the county and
if it is satisfactory, I assume that
the holders will commence to de-
post their bonds with the State
Treasurer of North Carolina. While
we have located quite a number of
the holders of the bonds, there are
some which have not been located
and it sometimes requires two or
three months to secure enough as
sents to declare a plan operative.
