Civic Improvements Effected
Through Aetiv ities of Young
Organization.
Pawnee City, March 27.—'The fourth
annual meeting of the Pawnee Public
Service club was hdld at the Exchange
hotel today, and following dinner three
directors were elected to fill the ex
pired terms of l)r. \V. U. Smith, D. K.
W herry and O. J. Shrauger. Reor
ganization of the executive board will
be ecected at the next director's meet
ing and chairmanships of committees
will go to the newly'elected officers.
It. C. Van Horne, W. D. Hartwell and
K. S. Wherry.
The service club was organized four
years ago in the form of a local Cham
ber of Commerce after a number of
attempts at similar organizations pre
viously had failed. Success of the
service clulpds partly attributed to its
weekly meetings at luncheons, the di
rectors meeting every other Thurs
day and the full organization attend
ing the dinner-meetings on the alter
nate weeks.
The organization was started w ith a
membership of GO, and 65 business
and professional men are now In the
club. Membership fee is $10 and
quarterly dues $2.GO. Affairs of the
club are handled by nine committees,
whose chairmen are the directors elect
ed for terms of three years. Since the
organization of the club, a number of
civic Improvements have resulted from
ihe committees’ activities, among them
being a. better band, a city park, gr.nv
* o!ed street, undetwround lines in the
business part of the city, relegation
of beggars and solicitors to a com
mittee on solicitations, and the secur
ing of the opera house for the city. j

■—Reddy Fox.
Reddy’ Decide* lie IJne*n't Waul a
Kahliit Breakfast.
It liddn't entered the mind of lted
dy Fox that Peter Rabbit would go
Into the house of Johnny Chuck. Ho
hadn't thought that peter would dare
to do such a thing. So he had felt
sure that at last he was about to
catch Peter Rabbit. He had Peter
cornered. At least he thought he bad
That stone wall right there was too
high for Peter to jump over, and no
where was there a space big enough
for Peter lo squeeze In between Ihe
stones of the wall. So Reddy licked
his lips as he thought of the Rabbit
breakfast lie was to have.
And then Peter had dived head
first through the doorway of Johnny
Chuck's house. Reddy had had a
parting glimpse of Peter's long heels
and then Polly Chuck's twinkling
black heels had taken their place as
she follow’d Peter. Almost at once
Johnny Chuck filled, that doorway
and began to scold angrily and growl
Itcddy paid no inure attention to
Jolinny I'liurk, wlio sat in Ills
ilonrw ay.
and snarl and work liimseV into a
great rage. Reddy lost his temper,
for a moment or two. Perhaps it w as
because of his surprise and disap
pointment. He knew that even had
he wanted tb he couldn't dig open
that home for the tntranee was be
tween two big stones. In that house
Peter Rabbit was perfectly safe from
hint.
So Reddy lost his temper for a min
ute, and because there was no one
else to Quarrel with he began snarl
ing liBv-k at Jolinny t'huclt. Rut it
was only for a minute or two. Red
dy s wits are Quite as Quick as Peter
Rabbit's, and hi the midst of that
Quarrel It popped Into Reddy's head
that it wasn't at all likely that Polly
Chuck would allow Peter Rabbit to
stay In her house, especially when
lie hadn't l>een Invited there. In that
case what would Peter do? He would
go out the hack way, of course.
There must he a back door. Johnny
and Polly Chuck were loo old and ex
perienced to make a home with only
one way in or out. Hut where could
that back door be? It probably was
more or less hidden, 'there Wouldh t
he any sdnjl on, the doorstep to give
It away.
Reddy paid no more attention to
Johnny Chuck, Who still sat In his
doorway. He sat down and studied
the situation. He made up his mind
that there was no hack door on that
side of the stone wall.
“It Is on the other side, of course!"
exclaimed Reddy to himself. “How
stupid of me not to have thought of
that at once.” •
With this he leaped up on the old
wall and hastily looked all about for
a glimpse of Pete,- Rabbit. Rut Peter
w as now het e to he seen Reddy jump
ed down, and as he did so he heard
a faint scolding voice that seemed to
come out of the ground. He cocked
his loach ears and listened. Then he
softly stole over to a low place In the
old wall and there, between some
Slones, he discovered the liack door

The scolding: stopped. Polly Chuckj
had heard or smelled him.
Reddy put his keen nose to the'
ground. At once he smelled Rabbit, j
Then Reddy knew that Peter bad es
caped. He knew that while he had
been quarreling with Johnny Chuck
on the other side <*f the wall Peter
had com* out of this back door and!
had by this time,found a safe hiding
place between the stones farther!
along In the old wall. It was a great
<lisappointme.it. of course. He had
counted on a Rabbit for breakfast
Rut, after all, a Mouse breakfast
would do very well. . In fact, he
wasn’t sure but that he would pre
fer a Mouse breakfast, come to think
about it. He could have the Rabbit
breakfast some other day—perhaps.
So Reddy trotted off down on the
Green Meadavvs and there he must
have breakfasted very well Indeed,
to judge by Hie satisfied look on his
face as a little later lie started for
his home.
