JT)OBBT, be sure and fix that l fence before night," said Mr. Elder. Bobby went in to his dinner. Then ho started out with nails and a ham mer to fix the fence. But as he passed the woodshed there hung his fishing pole on the dusty walls, a bit of a dried worm still on the hook. 'Guess there is plenty of time to fix that fence later on in the afternoon," said Bobby, jerking it down from the board. "I will fish a bit first, then fix the fence by sundown." In ten minutes he had dug up enough worms to fill a small can and was on his A-ay to the big creek that Tan across tfce back meadow. Then he sat down on a smooth, warm stone that hung over the stream." Making his coat into a pillow, he lay back on it, sticking the pole between his knees. Overhead the white clouds seemed to be ships with - snowy sails pushing across a blue sea. Then shadows would come over the light and the sky grow misty. "My, but it's pretty out here in the Spring!" sighed Bobby. "How nice if there were no school or work only play and have fun!" Just then Bobby felt a quick pull on the line and the cork jerked under. Up he pulled the line, and at the end was dangling, not a fish, but a funny something which looked like a crab, only its head was like that of an old man, withered and gray. Bobby let the line drop, and the odd creature flopped down on the rock. "Gee!" exclaimed Bobby, "but you are & queer duck!" "I'll have you understand, my lad, that I am not any duck at all!" re plied the strange-looking thing. "I am one of a race that existed a. million years ago and am one of the few left. I judge I have been asleep for several hundred thousand years, for I see none of my friends left in the stream from which I cams." Somehow It did not seem odd to hear this creature talk. So Bobby re plied quickly: "The reason you were wakened up is that the men are blast ing a deep hole here, and that prob ably got the dirt loose around you." 'Don't know about that." said the funny object. "But I do know this I wish I were back in the water; the air makes me creepy. I am an Umbak and have all kinds of magic power 'in the mud at the bottom of the stream, but none in the air. If you will throw me back, I will . grant any wish you make as soon as I Btrike the mud." "Done," said Bobby, and he pitched the Umbak back into the creek, saying out loud: "I wish I were in a place where there was never anything to do but play." Whisk! Bobby felt himself carried off like an arrow to one of the white clouds floating overhead. Then he was gently dropped. He found himself in a beautiful island, green as an em erald and like a vast flower garden. On the lawns were games of all kinds. the ball diamond was marked out clearly, there were tennis courts and marble rings and every conceivable sport imaginable. But Bobby noticed that the people of the place sat about glumly under the threes. "What do you call this place, any way?" he asked of a boy who seemed mere gloomy than the ivcst. "It is called the IslanS" of Idleness," replied $he boy. "And no work is done here nothing all day but play, and we never get anything real done. Vish I were anywhere but here. I would like work some real, hard work for a change." Bobby grew tired of It, too. The constant playing of games, the hav ing no work in which to take an in terest, wearied him. There was noth ing new, nothing b,eing done. From day to day it was just the same round of games and eating. "Gee whiz! but I wish I was back a f tnrrlA nnH mendinfi- fatier' fTipe " I he sighed. Then he felt himself drop and a loud splash of cold water dashed in his face. "Well. but I am glad that was a dream, he exclaimed, as he waded to the bank. "No more Island of Idle ness for me. I like games as & recre ation, but for a steaedy diet they grow wearying. I guess I will go and fix mat rence at once. " (Copyright, 115, by the MeClure News ' paper Syndicate, New York City.) JURY TO PROBE RIOTS Tacoma Strike Troubles Are to Be Investigated by Court. TACOMA. July 19. Four Judges of the Superior Court united today in call ing a grand jury to investigate strike riots in Tacoma. Forty-five names were selected from which the grand jury will be drawn, returnable Friday. Judge Ernest M. Card said he and three other Superior Court Judges had ordered a grand Jury called to investi gate longshoremen strike- riots because disinterested citizens should have pro tection. He declared that law and order must be maintained, and he believed the only solution of the trouble and the only method by which wrong does might be ferreted out was by offi cial investigation. County Prosecutor Remann said that it was impossible to force witnesses to tell names of those they saw in the mob at an Inquest held to determine who was directly responsible for the death of Reval Leinan, strikebreaker, who was killed last Sunday. Because of this he thought an inquisitorial body would prove beneficial. DEPENDABLE PIANOS AT LOV PRICES Good, dependable pianos at very reasonable prices may always be seen at our stores.
