THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 18, 1930 : - | Most people like a little Joke, t some, alas, it doth provoke, Bu - worry Muskrat. Starnose the Mole abruptly bade Peter Rabbit good by and disap- peared Into one' of his numerous tunnels. He had remained out an usually long time for Starnose, Perhaps it was because he had had wn unusuary big worm. He needed it. Starnose has an unusually big wpetite. You know, food makes what we call energy, The members sf the Mole family are full of en- wrgy. Such workers as they are! And ft {sn't easy, work. No, in- feed, it isn't easy work. It ig hard work, 'Digging is always hard work, And the Moles are the great. sst diggers of whom 1 know. They sat in order to dig and they dig in order to eat; for it is to find the worms that much of their digging is done. \ After. Starnose had disappeared, Peter sat close to the edge of the ' bank of the Smiling Pool and back to it. It was very warm. Peter began 'to grow sleepy. 'It was very nice over there by the . Smiling Pool; it was very pleasant, Over in the alders Redwing. the Black bird was singing. Peter always did Hike to hear Redwing sing, In the Smiling Pool itself, some of the Frog folk were singing now and then, Other on the far side of Smil- ing Pool Grandf{&ther Frog was say- ing "Chug-asrum! Chug-a-rum! Chug-a-fum!" In a deep voice, Peter's eyes kept shutting, Then he would open them with a start, only to close' them again, In a little while Peter was actually asleep. Of course, it was a very light sleep for Petet is far too wise to ever sleep heavily, Jerry Musk. rat came swimming along with nothing in 'particular to do, He lonked up and saw Peter sitting on the bank. Jerry stopped swimming and floated for a few minutes look- ing very hard at Peter. Then Jerry grinned. Once more he began to swim, He swam until he was right back of and below Peter. He look- ed up at Peter's back, grinned once more. What do you think he did then? . He dived and a8 he did so he brought his tail down hard on the water. When that tall slapped the water it made 8 sudden sharp noise. Peter's eyes flew open, At the same time he came to life in other ways. He bounded away lipperty-lipperty-lip- perty-lip, and was well out in the Green Meadows before he really knew whit he was doing. All he knew was that he had been fright. ened by a sudden noise. Now ho stopped and looked all around. He looked back toward the Smiling Pool. Nowhere could he see any. Ahing that was cause for fright, He hesitated a few minutes, Then very slowly he began to make his way back toward the Snilling Poor, PHONE 22 For Your Drug Needs THOMPSON'S 10 Bumcoe St. 8. -- We Deliver Ma .

So at last he got back to the place where he had been sitting, He looked all over the Smiling Pool. It was as peaceful as it had been before he dozed off, Appacently. there was nothing and thers was nn one to account for the sudden fright Pet- er had had. ' "lI must have dreamed it," thought Peter. "That's it; I dream- ed. That's what comes of dozing off in broad daylight." Just then Jerry Muskrat started to swim across the Smiling Pool to- ward where Peter was sitting, "Hello Peter!" said Jerry, "Where did you come from?" "I've heen here a long time," sald Peter. "My mistake," replied Jerry, "I sure thought I saw you coming from over there on the Green Mea. dows. It must have been someone else." Jerry's ayes were twinkling as he sald this. Peter turned his head to look back. Jorry's tall Pep TIME TABLES | aan C. P. R. TIME JAILE Elective Aptl_J1.

J.B, M, Baxter's Conserve tive government and of the Liberal opposition headed by Wendell FP, Jones, will mark the fifteenth oc- casion since Confederation on which the electors of that province have chosen a legislature at the polls.® A glanve at the policital history of New Brunswick reveals that the contest for leadership between the parties over the' sixty-thres year span has ben a close one. In point of time, the period's almost exactly divided, premiers with Liberal af- filiations having headed the gov- ernment for approximately thirty- two years, and Conservative legiss fators for thirtysone. From the standpoint" of actual election con- tests, the Liberals have had a slight edge, winning eight times to the Conservative's six. The Conserva- tive Party has had ten premers at the head of affairs In New Bruns wick, as compared with seven Lib: orals, Party lines, howevef, have not been drawn overly close in New Brunswick provinelal politics, and a practical co-alition existed during oae or two administrations, From 1867 to 1883 the govern- ment was headed in turn, by four Conservative leaders--Hon, A, R, Wetmore, Hon, G, B, King, Hon, J, H. Fraser, and Hon, D, H, Hanning- ton, These administrations were followed by the thirteen year term of Hon. A, G, Blair, Liberal, A one year administration of Hon, James Mitchell, Conservative, was suc. ceeded in 1897 by smother lengthy period ~~ eleven years -- during which the government was headed by Liberals, Hon, H. R, Emmerson, Hon, L. J. Tweddle, Hon. Willlam Pugsley, and Hon. C, W. Rebinson, In 1908, however, the Comserva- tives, led by Hon, J, D, Hazen, cams back to power and remained at the head of affairs for nine years, Hon, James K. Fleming, Hon, Georg Clarke, and Hon. James A. Murray succeeding Hon, Mr. Hazen as pre mier, The eight years from 1917 to 1926' were again a Liberal innings, Hon, Walter E.
