' Rejoicing on the Gre-n Meadows.
-- You may be sure that Sammy Jay
and Blacky the Crow lout no time in
prading the news that Bowser the
Hound had been caught in one of the
traps net by Farmer Brown's Boy for
Old Ian Coyote. It was the greatest
piece of news since the coming of
Buster Bear to the Green Forest. AnJ
, , somehow almost every one seemed to
V think It was pood news. Peter Rabbit
I hurried back to the dear Old Briar
J J'atch to tell Mrs. Peter, and he was so
i excited he could hardly talk straight.
"I guess be won't ever chaso us any
i more! , I hope he can't ever walk on
' ! that foot again," he concluded.
"Oh. Peter, you know perfectly well
you don'.t wish anything' of the kind;
. that would be too dreadful," cried tender-hearted
little Mrs. Peter-ho, you
; know, used to be Miss Fuzzytail.
Peter lookedr a wee bit ashamed.
' Well, anyway, I hope every time he
' gets to thinking about hunting one of
," us his leg will pain him bo that
' he Just won't feti like hunting
'any more. I guess that now it is go
ing to be perfectly safe to go up to
Farmer Brown's garden whenever w
happen to feel like it. 1 believe I'd
like a taste of fresh cabbage this very
minute. My, but I'm glad that dog
"has got into trouble! I wonder if Old
Wan Coyote had anything to do with
nr
"You ought to be ashamed of your
self, Peter?'" said Mrs. Peter In her
'" severest manner. "I am sure I don't
tvlsh anybody hurt, and you don't
either. If you stayed at home in the
Old Briar patch, a you ought to, Bow
her never would bother you, and. you
' know It. You Just keep away from
Farmer Brown's garden, or you may
irt fnt wors trouble than Bowser
"I guess he won't ever chase us
any more! I hope he can't ever
walk on that foot again.
-eould" say, Peter went with Jimmy
Skunk to the Smiling Pool. They found
everybody there very much excited.
They could talk of nothing else but
how Bowser the Hound had been
taught in a trap, and there was great
rejoicing.
"Perhaps he'll tell Farmer Brown's
Boy Just how it feels." said Jerry
Muskrat, who when he was a little
fellow had been caught by the tail and
had never forgotten the fright he had
received.
"It's the next best thing to having
Farmer Brown's Boy caught himself,"
declared little Joe Otter, who once
lost a toenail in a trap and has had a
his straight singing numbers. The act
Is given a good setting." Val' and Er
nie Stanton, the daf fydil boys, are
back with a new lot of nonsense which
proves to he one of the best things on
the bill.
An act that pleased and won much
favor was the xylophone offering of
George and Lilly Garden. A rough
and tumble musical act of some an
tiquity went big, none the less, and
was enthusiastically applauded at
the finish. Jay Bogert and Georgia
Nelson, former Orpheumites. have
new blackface act, "After the Bar
bers' Ball," that is a combination of
patter and songs, among them Mr. Bc
gert's standby Uncle Tom song.
Sural Atmosphere Throughout Ztlzn.
Rural politics, rural types, rural
comedy, a big dash of heart interest
and Mackiyn -Arbuckle are the prin
cipal Ingredients in "The County
Chairman," the Famous Players fea
ture at the People's this week. There
is not a trace o the city In the whole
story and the producing company has
taken advantage of that fact to choose
village greens, country lanes, small
town stores, village homes and rural
surroundings In which it is easy to
imagine the story might have taken
place.
The film is developed with unusual
icare for small details that go so far
toward creating a desired atmosphere.
Mr. Arbuckle is too .welt known for
his stage version of Jim Hackler 'o
need any introduction on the screen.
He is the same fat, good natured and
scheming county chairman whose heart
is bigger than his hate. Willis P.
Sweatman, the well known delineator
of "colored gentlemen," gives an ar
tistic and notable characterization.
Harold Lockwood does good work as
do all of the cast.

Mm out of the way I would worry a ! Mink. "Too bac' he didn't get caught,

"Pooh"' retorted Peter. 'There is
tiothiim to worry about. Hi, there,
Jimmy Skunk! Have you neara ine
news?"
Jirnrny Skunk, who happened along
Just then, grinned.
"Do you supt'ose there is anybody
who hasn't? That dog howled loud
enough, goodness knows! Serves him
right, and I'm glad of it. I only wish
that It had been Farmer Brown's Boy
himself who had been caught. Per
haps then he wouldn't be so keen about
setting traps." replied Jimmy. "I'm on
my way to the Smiling pool to see how
they feel about It over there. Come on
over," he added.
"Is the way clear?" asked Peter
anxiously.
Of course." replied Jimmy. "If It
wasn't I wouldn't have asked you. Be

you utay with me. You ought to know
that by this time."
So, In spite of all that Mrs. Peter
