There are two kinds Of people in this

to the why kind. Yes. sir. Peter be-
longed to the why kind. He doesn't now,
because he has lived long enough to
know better, but when he was young he
got into all kinds of trouble just because
he wouldn't mind until he had found out

to do or not to do a certain thing. And
now Little Pete was just like him. He
made Peter more trouble and worry than

spoken to. And he really meant it, Yes.
indeed, he really meant to show Peter
that no one could mind better than he

happy-go-lucky little fellow that he found
1t much easier, oh. SO much easier, to
forget than to remember. It wasn't five
