Reddy had in his time dug out more than one. But; it he ever should catch Johnny, it wouldn’t be that way and he knew it. “I'll just leave him alone for a while until he gets careless and goes too far from his hole,” thought Reddy. So_Johnny was left in peace. Johnny was still having hard work to find enough to eat. New grass was just beginning to grow in places.

He saw that the latter was fully as big as himself and younger. He, too, was thin and hungry-looking. Johnny guessed right away that he had very recently wakened from his Winter's sleep. “‘?Vho are you?” demanded Johnny. The stranger merely glanced at him and said nothing. “What are you doing on my door- step?” demanded Johnny, his anger growing. “You are mistaken,” replied the stranger. “This is my doorstep. Just g0 on about your business.” Johnny could hardly believe his ears. “Look here, fellow, I dug that hole,” said he. “Much obliged. It suits me fine. Now run along and dig another,” re- plied the other. - Such impudence! Never had Johnny | met with such impudence. He gritted his teeth. “Are you going to leave | peaceably, or have I got to drive you | away?” he demanded. “I don't intend to leave at all,” re- | plied the other, gritting his teeth. “Haven't I just said that this suits me fine? This may have been your hole once, but it isn't any longer. It is mine now.” “‘How do you get that way?" snarled Johnny, growing more and more angry. “I happened along and found no one at home here, so I took posses- |sin. You know the law. Among the furred and feathered folk, whatever one can take and hold belongs to him. I've taken this hole and I think I can hold it,” retorted the stranger. Johnny felt the hair rising along his back and neck. It always does i that when he is very, very angry. He | Was angry, very angry, now. Such im- | pudence was beyond belief. He would put this stranger in his place. And | then, to add insult to injury, the | stranger spoke again. | “There is another hole over yonder a little way,” said he. “If you really must have a hole, you can use that | one.” Of course that holé was the one | Johnny had dug first and that Reddy Fox had tried to dig him out of. It was so big now that Reddy could walk in at will, so of course it wasn't safe any longer. Of course, the stran- ger knew it, and Johnny knew that the stranger knew it. Johnny gritted his teeth and growled as he advanced a few steps. The stranger wasn't afraid. This was plain to see. But he was &autious. He backed into that hole so that only | his head was out. He grinned at | Johnny in the most provoking way. To get him out of there would be a | task, and he knew it. “Run along, old fellow, or you may get hurt,” said he, in the most im- pudent manner. To be called an old fellow was more than Johnny could stand. | (Copyright. 1 1 Miss of 106 Hates Cats. | Dispelling the fallacy about the old | maid’s cat, Miss Anna Farrell, who recently celebrated her 106th birth- | day anniversary in Dublin, Irish Free State, declares that her pet antipathy | And modern girls have no | | is felines. | place in her favor. “They are dread- “The girls in my day were much the best.

It is really a talk- ing picture film and is televised from Moscow to be picked up by any one having the necessary apparatus.

It is predicted that tele- vision illustrated newspapers will be seen in many countries within two years. — s —— Hole-in-One Shocks Golfer. As Miss M.

Romance of Your Name BY RUBY HASKINS ELLIS. THIS surname is of Welsh origin and is very closely filied with the name of Davis—both being a corrup- tion of the personal name David. The first recorded mention of the surname appears in 1581, when one Robert ap David (son of David) assumed the name Davies as his family cogno- men. It is said that in ancient Wales and England the names Davis and Davies combined far outnumbered those of Smith, Brown, Jones, Wil- liams or Taylor.

It really ought to be started in a cold frame or in the house in April, but will flower before the end of the season if seeds are started outside when the ground is warm. The plant grows like Jack's beanstalk, getting higher than a man's head when it starts to flower. Its rapid-growing habit and the beauty of its flow- ers, which are produced at the top of the plant in great pro- fusion, give it unusual interest. The seeds cost little, and one package will give several plants. (Copyright. 1935.) land States was Humphrey Davies, a merchant, and son of 8ir John Davies of London.
