bringing a skillet from the wagon, puf
the squirrels on. and soon had them
flying. He had anticipated this, and
tied with water. coffee, cups and 2
plate or two.
The boys opened their baskets. sci
a cup beside each. and soon We're en-
ioyins what they thought one OF the
hest meals they ever ate. The cold
bread even tasted delicious with the
hot coffee and nicely Drowned squirrel.
Hunger made everything relished. and

Better fiji the resi- of the bags

But the boys wanted a change OF oc-
crpation: they also wanted exercise
after their meal. SO they Went tear

vines. and some of the boys climbed
the trees and iet r%ll great lunches Of
fox grapes, which. though shattering

Time passed rapidly with them, and

realized it. Then they hurriedly fill
, cd the remainder of the bags with
hu's and started for town with the
WAGON bed even full Of the rich fruit
OF the forest It was nearly dark
when they reached town and had dis,

We had d good time all riehl" said
Dot. after they had left him and his
share Of the nuts al home.
