{ NOT REALLY RAINING By DOUGLAS MALLOCH HE mists of morning always rise, Melt In the warmth of better skies. I never see the vapor drifting But in the moving It is lifting. Give breezes time, the sun a chance, And, as the hours of day advance, The mists of morning rise and seatter And prove a very little matter. I wonder If we do not make On many mornings this mistake? Mistake some little care for sorrow, Although it ends before the morrow; Make for ourselves a doleful list Of losses that are only mist That blows away, amid complaining, Because it isn't really raining. I know we have our larger grief, But much that frets us is the brief, Upon life's surface floating bubbles, But mists that are not really troubles. Though many losses living brings, We sigh the most o'er little things, Let us be glad, somehow or other, Unless it's really raining, brother. ©. 1932, Douglas Malloch. WNU Services. REDDY FOX ADMIRES JERRY'S HOUSE F IN all the great world there is anybody pleasanter than Reddy Fox when he tries to be pleasant I don't know who It Is. Of course in that handsome red coat of his he Is very good looking, anyway. Then when he puts on the polite airs that no one knows better than he how to put on, brings Into his eyes an innocent look, and smiles, he is as pleasant a fellow as yon would care to meet, Only when he forgets ard grins a little too broad: “Qood Evening, Neighbor Jerry,” Said He. ly so that he shows all his long teeth does his face lose its pleasant look. Now Reddy Fox was one of those who knew all about what was going on in the Smiling Pool. You know Reddy gets his living by knowing what 1s going on about him. Every night wnile Jerry Muskrat was at work on that new house Reddy had stolen over to the Smiling Pool, from among the rashes watched Jerry for a little while, and then stolen away again, taking the greatest care not to be seen. “There Isn't the least use in the world trying to get him now,” said he, as he thought the matter over. “There won't be any use as long as he is at work on that new house. But when it Is finished he'll have less to think about. 1 must see If | cannot find something te interest him.” Reddy grinned, and the grin was the kind of a grin which showed all his long teeth. He grinned just that same way each night as he trotted away from the Smiling Pool after watching Jerry work. At last came the time when Jerry stopped working because, you know, the house was finished. Reddy knew when Jerry stopped working. Oh, yes, Reddy knew all about it. Then one evening Reddy visited the Smiling Pool quite openly. He sat right out on the bank In the moon light, and you couldn't Imagine any- body more pleasant than was Reddy. He had his most polite airs and his best grin. “Good evening, neighbor Jerry,” sald he, and bis voice was as pleasant as ke knew how to make It. Jerry stopped swimming long enough to look up at Reddy. Then, because he could hardly be less po- lite than Reddy, he squeaked: “Good GIRLIGAGR > {Nd Gg EA // oy “Fond, parents may think children are bright,” says mature Matilda, “but even an electric light needs a switch.” © 1423, Bell Ryndicate.—~WNU Sarvice evening,” and started on his way. In a minute he dived and disappearea as he swam for the entrance to a certain tunnel In the bank. When he once more popped his head out of the wa- ter for a breath of fresh alr Reddy was still sitting on the bank right where he had been and he was still as pleasant as before. “1 have been admiring your honse” sald Reddy. “You know I travel about a great deal and have seen many houses, but never have 1 seen one to compare with this. It Is wonderful Not even Paddy the Beaver can build such a house as this" Now, of course this was rank flat. tery and not the truth at all, for Pad dy the Beaver Is a master builder as everybody knows But it sounded sweet In the ears of Jerry Muskrat in spite of the fact that he knew. So he lingered to hear what more Reddy might say. © 1932. by T. W.

While most of th average golfers either slice or hook, the slice is far more prevalent. For this reason the ordinary golfer would undoubtedly find that the deeper faced clubs were more suitable to his par- ticular case, Deep faced clubs have the power to counteract the slice and this fills a particular niche In most games that cannot be easily discount: ed. On the other hand those golfers who show a penchant for hooking might find It well to switch to shallow faced clubs. With these clubs the tendency to slice would overcome the hooking proclivity and a fairly straight ball would result. With these two facts In mind it should be a simple matter to find the club that best suits one’s game. There's nothing like a straight ball off the tee to start the bole right. ©. 1932, Bell Syndicate —WNU Services well during the basting.

Lurge groups of persons caught out in the open by a storm should scatter and lle down in the mud-—it is better to be muddy than sorry. Similarly, If one is caught out in a lake in un open boat—a very bad place to be—it is best to lie down in the bottom and drift than to try to row to shelter. Another rule for safety in the country Is that it Is better not te yield to temptation and geek shelter in exposed buildings. [It is hatter to get wet than to stand on the porch of such a building. Wood houses are Just as safe (or as dangerous) as stone houses. Homes made entirely of metal or of metal framework are very safe, It is wel] to notice that many com- monly accepted beliefs are ground less, A bed Ix no safer than a chair, or the floor, for that matter. It makes little if any difference if the windows are open or shut, al though closed windows will keep out the rain and some of the noise. Smal) steel objects such as scissors or knives are perfectly harmless, The essence of a thunder storm 1s that lightning is simply the visible part of an electrical discharge from cloud ta ¢loud or from cloud to earth. It always follows the path of least resistance, If you stay out of dangerous places you are perfectly safe—and, anyway, you have 250000 chances to one of being hit and 1.000000 to one chances of being killed.
