if they have recovered from their
fright.

So Sammy Jay flew back to Farmer

Billy just what Jimmy Skunk had
told him to. Unc' Billy looked very
foolish as he replied:
"Yo' tell Brer Skunk All was Just

there are no traps and 1t was nah own
foolishness that brought me here. Tell
him Anil be right glad TO- to have

had said. Jimmy made up his mind

just as 20 as it was dark and he
was sure that no one in Farmer
Browns house was likely to come
poking around in the d%ooryard. And
that is Just what he did do. He didn't
waste any time. He crept past the

Those friends are most your friends

Who prove it by the trouble test;
Who when old trouble squeezes tight
Come tn your side and help you fight.
That's the kind of a friend worth
having and that's the kind of a friend
Jimmy Skunk is. No one did he
hear from Sammy Jay of how Unc'
Billy Postum had been caught than
he forgot all about how he had got
ten into trouble himself the last time
he visited Farmer Browns dooryard.
Yes. sir. he forgot all about that! Unc'
Billy was in trouble and that was
enough to make Jimmy Skunk forget
about his own troubles.
Jimmy asked Sammy Jay all kinds
Of questions. but Sammy couldn't tell
him much because. you know. Sammy
didn't know a great deal about how
inc Billy had been caught. All he
knew was hat Unc' Billy was a pris-
