and the Coon and 'Possum and the old
Black Crow all shook hands and danced

that Jack Rabbit was coming TO board
he spoke up just as quick as anything
and said he'd come. too. and that he'd
have his things there before supper time.
He took the room over Mr.. Crow. be-
cause he said he didn't mind the smell
of the cooking. and then maybe he'd
learn some new receipts. You see. Mr..
Crow and Mr.. Robin are sort Of kins-
folk, and when they have time they often
get together and trace back TO find out
just what relation they are to each
other. and that makes them good
friends.

Of the house when who should walk in
but Mr. Squirrel.

Mr.. Squirrel. I'm looking for "a place

pleased with the view and everything

Coon and 'Possum and the old Black
Crow did another dance. and kept say
ing over and over how rich they'd be and
what they would do with all the money.
Then they heard somebody laughing out

was Mr. Turtle laughing and reading
the sign.

WHAT DO WE LAUGH ATT

Did Won ever try to find out what
kind of a person stranger Was.by us
tenipg 10 what he laughed at: Al
though il is not right for one TO Judge
people it is of course right for one 10
fry TO find out what kind of people
one talks TO or plays with. And if a
person laughs at things that should not
he laughed at one can't help thinking
that that person has certain qualities
For example. if a little boy would
laugh at a poor old disabled man CT
woman you would not think this little
boy was sympathetic or kind; if some
one. laughed at a helpless animal ana
passed it without helping it you would
think that this person was little
cruel; again. if you heard any one
laugh at a story about some hard trial
some one had. YOU could not but think
this ready laugher was very inconsid-
crate.
lust remember that when we laugh
we are saying in another way, gener-
allv. that we are amused. SO don't
laugh at the misfortuneS of anybody
or anything or at stories which are
told TO YOU when they are anything
but funny.
You know there are lots of stories
which are meant to be funny but
which are really ugly and quite dis
gushing. and should we laugh at such
tales we would be not only encourag-
ing such stories but letting others
think we were not quite as fine as we
are.

You ask me for a bite TO cat.
I've no idea OF standing treat.
In vain you drop foolish tear.
Your dinner You must earn, I fear.
