That-and nothing more
-. do feel that the investigation shows GRIM
ina act on the part of any public official they said.
Ii was startngly apparent that the judges-far from
demandng-did not even suggest further investigation
1t is time therefore, think to permit the public to
sit in on this Van Wagner affair.
the Judges, at their in camera sessions, told
what their witnesses have since reported. then the
judges learned:
That city police held warrant for the arrest of
Van Wagner notorious bunco game gangster signed by
Gov Arthur Langle and issued at of the
of Massachusetts,. That the day before Van Wagner
freed the chief of police called Prosecutor Thor Toefson
be doubt the police fully of their duty
That nevertheless Van Wagner hurriedy turned loose
and that effort made by the police to serve the
warrant.
That the county sheriff with Van Wagner in the county
jail knew of the at police headquarters few blocks
That the sheriff within three days before Van Wagner

sheriff his Official records Tor weeks had noted a o thsr

That sometime prior to Van wagner queer release from

That the Californian had identified Van Wagners accomplce

Those are the damning facts which, believe, laid
before the Judges If they not then the judges have
been "kidded"
If they WERE then the indifference of the judges is
noteworthy.

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.


If ever in all this great world there
was scared rabbit, that rabbit was
Peter Rabbit. There he was under
that great pile of brush in the Green
Forest with Buster Bear just waking
from his long winter sleep, and he
didn't dare leave it because he knew
that just outside Hooty the Owl was
on watch. At first Peter got just
as close to the edge Of that brush
pile as he could without showing
himself outside There he sat and
shivered and shook as he listened
to the noises Buster Bear was max
ing behind him.
When Peter aWakens from a nap,
he's wide awake all at once. He is
just as wide awake as if he hadn't
been asleep at all. This is true OF
most of the people of the Green
Forest and the Green Meadows. 1t
is true of Buster Bear in the sum-
mer time. But now Buster was wax
ing from an altogether different
sleep, and it took him long time.
Peter would hear the leaves rustic
as Buster kicked his legs and twisted
and turned. You see, it was so long
since Buster had used his legs that
they were stiff. Then, too, Buster
did a lot of grunting and growing.
After while everything would be
quiet and Peter would wonder if
Buster had gone to sleep again, but
pretty soon the noises would begin
again.
Now it is a funny thing, but very,
very often people just seem to have
to get as close to danger as they
can. They seem to find a certain
kind of pleasure in being frightened.
Peter Rabbit wished with all his
might that he was back safe in the
dear Old Briar Patch, but his Gu
riosity was so great that in spite of
himself he went creeping back to a
place where he could peep out and
watch Buster Bear. There he sat
shivering and shaking with fear,
and yet so interested that he
couldn't take himself away. Buster
continued to squirm and kick and
groWl and open and shut his great
jaws. 1t was plain that Buster was
in a bad temper. 1t seemed very
much as if he didn't enjoy wax
ing up.
Buster was not altogether to blame
for feeling cross. In the first place,
he was anything but comfortable
after his long sleep. In the second
place, he was very hungry, for, Of
course, he had had nothing to eat
since he crawled in under that brush
pile at the beginning of winter. So
Buster was to be excused for being
cross.
He did a great deal of stretching,
trying to get the kinks out of his
legs. BY and by he got to his feet,
and after a little he began to pull
away the brush and dig out the
snow that had filled in the place
where he had entered. 1t was plain
that Buster was going out. Peter
gave little sigh of relief. Buster
hadn't discovered him and evidently
had no thought that there was any,
body but himself under that brush
pile.
