why he had not "come to O. B."

Stanyon said that he did not think it
would do any good. Pressed by Thomas
as to the reason, Stanyon said it waa

on orders from Edmondstone. He stated
Odell had told, nlm ha wanted to keep
bis own son on because he. had been In

tered the shops and 10 days after Ed

Satterlee received his discharge.
J. O. Gibson, in charge of plumbing,
sheet metal and roofing for five years,!
who was discharged January 12, 1921,

fectly satisfactory. He said, "Other
powers are in and you know politics.
They want their own people in." He
asked for a recommendation which was
promised him, but never given, and when
he persisted, he was told that If he felt
that way, they could always trump up
charges for firing him.
ACCUSES HIGHER. CPS
D. C Arnold, a married man with five
children, who was employed 11 years and
four months, and who was discharged
October 11 from the electrical depart
ment, by Phillips at Odell's request, said

was to cut down the force.
Dan Shea, employed two years driv
ing a supply car, was discharged De
cember 30 of last year. Just at the time
when he was planning to take a vaca
tion. Shea said he had worked over
time without charge, and had put off
his vacation to which he was entitled,

that when the time came, he was dis

funff Btowa't Boy.
BLACKY THE CKOW didn't 'know
what to think. He couldn't make
himself believe that Farmer Brown's
boy bad really turned hunter, ret what
else could he believe? Hadnt he with
his own eyes seen Farmer Brown's boy
with a' terrible gun hide in the rushes
along the Big River and wait for Dusky
the Black Duck and his flock to come
in? And hadn't he with his own ears
heard the "bang, bang!' of that very
gun?
The very first thing the next morning
Blacky hastened over to the place where
Farmer Brown's boy had hidden In the
rushes. With sharp eyes he looked tor
feathers. There wasn't a thing to show
that anything so dreadful had happened
there. Perhaps Farmer Brown's boy
had missed when he shot at those Ducks.
Blacky shook his head and decided to
say nothing to anybody' about Farmer
Brown's boy and that terrible gun.
Ton may be sure that; that afternoon
he was early in the top j of -nls favorite
tree over the Big River. 'His baart sank
when, just as on the afternoon before.
he saw Farmer Brown's boy with his
terrible gun trudging across the Green
Meadows to the Big River. Instead of
going to the biding place of the day be
fore, he made a new one further down.
Then came the hunter! a little earlier
than usual. Instead of stopping at his
blind he walked straight to the blind
Farmer Brown'boy. had first made.
Of course there was no one there. The
hunter looked both glad and disap
pointed. He went back to his own blind
and sat down, and while he watched
for the coming of the Ducks he also
watched that other blind to see if the
unknown hunter of the night before
would appear. Of course he didn't, and
when at last the hunter saw the Ducks.
coming he was sure that this time he
would get some of them.
But the same thing happened that had
happened the night before. Just as
those ducks were almost near enough
a gun went "bang, bang !" and away
went the Ducks. They didn't come back
again, and once more a disappointed
hunter went home without any.
The next afternoon he was on hand
very early. He was there before Farmer
Brown's boy arrived, and when he did
come, of course, the hunter saw him.
He walked down to : where Farmer
Brown's boy was hiding in the rushes.
With sharp eyes be looked for
feathers that would tell the tale
of a Duck killed.
"Hello !" said he. "Are you the one who
waa shooting here last night and the
night before?"
Farmer Brown's boy grinned. ."Tea,
said he.
"What luck did you have?" aaked the
hunter.
"Fine," replied Fanner Brown's boy.
"How many. Ducks did you get?"
asked the hunter.
Farmer Brown's boy grinned' more
broadly than before. "None," said he.
"I guess I'm not a very good shot."
"Then what dldyou mean by saying
you Had fine luck?" demanded the
hunter.
"Oh," replied Farmer Brown's boy.
I had the luck to see those Ducks and
the fun of shooting," and he grinned
again.
The hunter lost patience. He tried to
order Farmer Brown's boy away. But
the latter said he had as much right
there as the hunter had and the hunter
knew that this was so. Finally, be gave
up and, muttering angrily, went back
to his blind. Again the gun of Farmer
Brown's boy frightened away the Ducks
just as they were coming in.
Tne next aiternoon there was no
hunter, nor the next, though Farmer
Brown's boy was there. The hunter
had decided that It was a waste of tlmeJ.
