Despite Isolat ed reports to the contrary, unemployment Is decreasing. Although most farm hands and other outdoor workmen ar jobless, a gemsral survey of conditioas reveals a gradual increase In employment throughout the country. . . Taken as a whole the nation has rea son to feel optimistic that the next 2V6 months win see a positive rise toward normal prosperity, according to federal author! ties. These facts were empha sised by Francis L Jones, director gea- eral of the United States employment bureau, la an exclusive Interview with the United Kewa MOKE WOBJC BT SrBXXQ "Fear that employment has decreased to an alarmingly low level has been due to the absence of a comparative frame of mind oa the part of the average per son. 7 Director Jones said.

Frantically he scratched at the back door of Farmer Brown's house, and when l was opened for him ruahed in so suddenly that he almost upset Farmer Browns Boy. With his tail between his legs and trembling he crept behind the stove. "Well, what do you make of that?'' exclaimed Farmer Brown's Boy. ."Bows-I er acts as If scared half to death." He stepped outside to look around. All was as quiet and peaceful as usual. Farmer Brown's Boy shook his head. Bowser must have been taking a nap I and had a bad dream, said he. Under the stack of straw in the bam-1 yard Old Man Coyote was still chuckling to himself. To him it was a great Joke. I He wished that some of the other people I of the Green Forest could have seen lt It had worked out Just as he had hoped It would. He knew that It was the sur prise of the thing that had taken the heart out of Bowser, and that Bowser hadn't really recognised him. And he knew that having given Bowser such s fright It would be easy to do it again. He was very well pleased, was Old Man Coyote, with the way his plan bad succeeded. By the next morning Bowser was quite himself again. For the time being he had forgotten the terrible creature who I hsd chased him home the afternoon be-1 fore. When Mrs. Brown came out with bis breakfast he wagged his tail with eagerness. There was nothing the mat ter with his appetite that morning. Mrs. Brown put down the plate of I food and hurried back into . the bouse. Bowser began to eat A low growl I caused him to turn. Coming around the corner of the abed was the same terrible creature who had chased him home the day before. There were the! same snapping teeth, flashing eyes and I bristling hair. Right then and there Bcwser lost hla appetite. Tea. sir. he did. He lost his appetite completely. I Between his legs went hla tall, and with I a little yelp of fear he raced around the! corner of the house and down the drivel to the road. There be stopped to look! back. He could see no one, for from there! he could not see back Of the house. Fori a long time be stood there, undecided I whether to run or to go back. Then. I stopping every few steps and ready to I run at the first sign of danger, he slowly made his way back. Cautiously he peeped around the corner of the house. I There was no one there The plate I which had con tamed hla breakfast was I empty, but he didn't give that a thought He wasn't hungry. He wanted, more than anything else, to get Inside the house. And so be whined and scratched at the door until It was opened for him. Under the stack of straw Old Maal Coyote was licking bis lips and grinning. (Ceesright. ltat, by T. W.
