Four Boys and Burro Having Fun A strange expedition which started a few days ago from DeWitt is about to enter the city of Davenport.

Four boys and a burro are even now camped without the city's gates waiting for a favorable moment to make triumphal entry into the capital of Scott county. Whenever the spirit of the burro moves, and that isn't very often, they will probably land here. When a reporter interrupted the boys during a morning plunge in a narrow. shallow and very muddy creek today, the adventurers were not in a mood to be interviewed. He shouted a question or two at the sunburned kids in the muddy water.

"Aw, g'wan." shouted one of them. "There's enough hot air around here now and you don't make the weather any cooler." So that was that, but another source of information produced the lowdown on in the a leisurely expedition fashion which into Davenport. The boys are the kind that Briggs draws. chaps who don't comb during vacation and have rag-wrapped toes and scoff at underwear. None of the DeWitt quartet is over 9.

If the burro is to be included in the limate of age, that's a different proposition for the antiquity of the fuzzy beast is very pronounced, When the boys started from DeWitt. they patched up a harness. loaded their camping equipment on. fan old two-wheeled cart and headed the burro toward Davenport. The cart is a big vehicle, and the burro is very small.

He is also very wise. During the trek southward. the burro became balky on several occasions when he decided he wouldn't pull the loaded cart. Whenever the burro stopped and refused to gO ahead, he was unhitched. The hoys grabbed the shafts of the cart.

tied the burro behind and dragged both cart and burro ahead. In a tent that has been pitched along the bank of a little creek, the four adventurers have stowed their equipment. also sleep in the tent. Just how four boys manage to squeeze into such a small space has not been explained. They have an assortment of kettles, skillets.

pans and other tinware that would more than comprise the stock of the itinerant peddlers who used to drive thru the country trading tinware for old rags and rubber. Yesterday the boys erected 3 flag pole and few two flags from it. On the top of the mast they flew the American flag and underneath WAS the British Union Jack. Thoses two flags are something that call for exnlanation. too.

They were not in evidence this morning. The burro is resting for a day or two and eating his fill in a pasture while the boys paddle around in the muddy creek. If the boys can induce the burro to do his share. they plan to come into the city, and if the burro and the cart and the boys get as far as Third (and Brady streets traffic will certainly he tied up. ence Koberg.
