Bedtime Stories
By THORNTON w. BURGES

AS 1 have told you, Farmer
Browns Boy had been all about the
neighborhood asking at each farm
house if anything had been seen of
BowSer the Hound Of course. moth
ing had been seen of him, and so at
last Farmer Browns Boy felt sure
that something dreadful had hap
pened to Bowser in the woods.
For several days he tramped
through the Old Pasture, looking
for signs of Bowser. His heart was
heavy. for you know Bowser was
quite one of the family. He visited
every place he could think of where
he and Bowser had hunted together.
He knew that by this time BoWser
couldn't possibly be alive if he had
been caught by the foot in a trap
or had met with an accident in the
woods. He had quite given up all
hope of ever seeing Bowser alive
again But he did want to know just
what had happened, and so he kept
searching and searching.
One day Farmer Browns Boy
heard that strange dog had been
found over in the next township
That afternoon he drove over there
his heart filled with a great hope
But he had his long ride for nothing,
for when he got there he found that
the stronge dog was not BoWser at
all.
Meanwhile, OLD Man Coyote and
Reddy Fox and Old Granny Fox had
become very bold. They even came
up around the henyard in broad
daylight. II believe you know some
thing about what has become of
BoWSer," Farmer Browns Boy said
as he chased Old Man Coyote away
one day You certainly know that
he isn't home, and I more than
suspect you know why he isn't
home I certainly shall have to get
another dog to teach you not to be
so bold"
But somehow Farmer Browns Boy
couldn't quite bring himself TO take
such step as getting a new dog. He
felt that no other dog ever should
take Bowser's place. and in spite of
the fact that he thought he had
given up all hope of ever seeing
BoWser again, way down deep inside
was something which, if it were not
hope, was something enough like it
to keep him from getting another
dog in BoWSer's place.
Whenever he went about away
from home he kept an eye out for
dogs in the farmyards he passed.
He did it without really thinking
anything about it. He had given up
hope of finding Bowser and yet he
was always looking for him.

From Dayton: Why not comment
on the radio commentator who
always signs off with Jaw rec
VORE"?-L. c.
Answer: Tossing off "aw rec
VORE' is his way Of informing the
listeners that he speaks French
like a native of Squeedunk.
Why use au revoir literal mean
ing ''to the seeing again. at all
since our own good-by is by far
the sweeter sentiment?
Good-by is a contraction of God
be with ye." the steps of decay
being: God be wi ye; God bw' ye;
God bwye goodbye or good-by.
AS actors and dramatic readers
must occasionally use the French
au revoir. they should not risk en-
barrassment by mispronouncing the
phrase.
do you remember of the Wag of
the Gibson girl era who used to
convulse his friends with the bur-
lesque French "over the river" or,
still more killingly, well, olive oil,

Letter TO the Editor

February 8, 1941
Mr.. Harold Wrenn, Editor,
Coolidge Examiner,
Coolidge, Arizona.
Dear Mr.. Wrenn:
Your editorial in the Examiner
of February Z regarding street
and highway safety in Coolidge
brings into the open problem
which has been confronting our
community for many months. Not
only do some of our own citizens,
as you point out, evade the com.
mon sense rules of courtesy and
proper handling of vehicle, but
through-travelers frequently speed
past our Northside Grammar School
and High school as if these build
ings did not exist. We are ex.
tremely fortunate in having thus
far escaped a serious or fatal acci
dent
This matter has been discussed
in open meeting Of the Coolidge
Rotary Club, and a committee has
been appointed to study the situa
ton and recommend what action
be taken to control a problem that
seems to be getting out of hand
May I commend you heartily for
the stand that you have taken in
bringing this matter to the atten-
tion Of the people and the organi-
cations of Coolidge so that it may
be remedied before a serious in
jury or death results.
Sincerely,
MATT DODGE,
President,
Coolidge Rotary Club

Feature Colors
In Westinghouse
1941 Regrigerators

To honor a trio of notable early
American women, the 1941 West
inghouse refrigerator line has been
styled in a colonial mode The
most beautiful and expensive model
is named fc- Martha Washington
and bear 4 Silhouette portrait of
the First Lady. Similar portraits
of Dolly Madison and Betsy Ross
adorn other models.
Color, introduced in plastic
panels OF soft pastel shades, in.
wade the interior of the 1941 refri.
gerator for the first time Colored
dishware in harmonizing tones
completes the effect.
"The beauty and color OF these
refrigerators present a distinctive
appeal to the housewife" accord
ing to Y. c. White of the Valley
Hardware And Supply Co. There
is constantly growing emphasis
on color, and this theme has been
intensified in automobiles, home
furnishings, and most of the things
the public buys. The 1941 line of
Westinghouse refrigerators has
been styled to meet the desire for
color in refrigerators.
Through True-Temp Control the
1941 Westinghouse refrigerator en-
ables the housewife to dial the
number of the temperature she
wishes for the main food COM
partment. This tempkrature is
maintained regardless Of kitchen
temperature. At the same time,
correct temperature and humidity
levels hold for the four other
Zones of Cold. These five Zones
of Cold fill the need for the five
distinct kinds Of refrigeration
needed in preparation of any meal.
During the past II years the
Westinghouse company has spon-
sored 40 basic improvements in
refrigerator construction. Among
the more important are True
Temp Control; the one-piece all
steel current top cabinets;
cushion mounting of the complete
mechanism; the covered, ventilat-
ed Meat Keeper; the glass-topped
Humidrawer, and the use of
Fiberglas insulation.
can important advance in engi-
neering for the 1941 Westinghouse
refrigerator is the elimination of
several moving parts in the motor
mechanism" according to Mr..
White.
"This assures even quieter opera
ton than in previous years. A
more efficient temperature control
has been devised for the froster,
or ice-cube compartment"
The 1941 westinghouse refri-
gerator is offered in five interior
sizes-three, four, six, seven, and
nine cubic feet. Increased popu-
larity of the six foot and larger
models was attributed by Mr..
White to the fact that the avarage
American family has discovered
the advantages of plentiful food
storage space. So decided has this
trend become, he pointed out, that
the five foot model of former years
has been minated from the West
inghouse line and seven-foot and
nine-foot models added.

Mrs. Cox
Decision
Due TOday
Times stan Correspondent

LANSING. July 19.-After TAX
ing a motion under advisement for
three days, Justice Robert w.
Montgomery of Lansing Township
today was to decide whether Mrs.
Bessie Cox, alleged butcher knife
stabber of David Westgate, shall
be bound over to Circuit Court for
trial.
The motion for dismissal pre-
sented by Dwight l.. Wilson, de-
tense attorney, set forth that no
competent evidence of corpus de-
licti had been presented by the
prosecution; that there was no
evidence that the death
of Westgate was caused by crimi-
nal means; that no competent evil
dence MS presented TO show that
the respondent caused the death of
Westgate by criminal means. and
that thele is no competent evil
dence that Mrs: Cox caused the
death of Westgate.
Since Justice Montgomery must
find that crime has been COM
United. and since Mrs. Cox is al
legged TO have admitted stabbing
Westgate during a quarrel it is
expected that the court will deem
lit advisable to bind the respondent
over to a higher tribunal.
If this be the case, Justice Mont
gomery also will have to decide
whether Mrs. Cox is to be admitted
to bail.
