opinion as to where they really come
from. A rabbit is not hare. although
they are cousins. There is one marked
difference between them. The baby
rabbit. as all know who keep these lit
tie animals as pets. comes into the
world blind and helpless. while the
baby hare has its eyes open from the
beginning. and Is soon able to take
care of itself. 1t has been believed
that the hare never closes its eyes.
and that is one reason why It is chosen
as the symbol Of the moon, which al
ways has its eyes open and sees every
