and as you are willing to share what
you have with me I will return your
kindness.
You so right past my house under
the hill and then turn to the right and
go over the hill to the white farm, and
there Is the garden, and in the barn
you will find the carrots"
II have been there already" replied
Bunny Rabbit, but l did not know
about the carrots. I think they have
very cross dog there. and he might
be right at the barn door"
"Oh. well. If you are afraid Of dogs. -
said Mr.. Fox, ''of course I can do
nothing for you. I am not afraid Of
dogs myself"
Bunny Rabbit did not like to have
Mr.. Fox speak in that tone to him. so
he said he guessed he was as brave as
most animals. and off he ran.
Mr.. Fox waited until Bunny Rabbit
reached the edge Of the woods. and
then he ran after him as fast as he
could and watched.
He saw Bunny Rabbit go nearer and
nearer to his home. and then he saw
what he was waiting for.
A dog jumped out from behind a tree
and chased Bunny Rabbit, and then he
saw a man with a gun, who fired
shot at Bunny Rabbit. but did not hit
him.
Oh. how Bunny Rabbit did run. He
turned when he saw the dog and ran
toward the woods.
He reached them. too. and when the
Cog got to the woods Bunny Rabbit
was safe in his hole.
1t all happened Just as Mr.. Fox
thought 1t would. for he knew very
we'll where Mr.. Dog and his master
were and that was the reason he could
not go home that morning-he was
being chased by them. He had visited
the farm the night before and Mr..
Dog had seen him and given the
alarm. Mr.. Fox knew that Bunny
Rabbit would be chased by Mr.. Dog
as soon as he showed himself near the
place where Mr.. Dog was watching.
and that would take him away from
Mr.. FoX's home.
AS soon as the chase began Mr.. Fox
ran along the edge Of the woods, and
when Mr.. Dog ran into the woods he
ran out and home as fast as you ever
saw fox run.
That afternoon after Bunny was over
his fright he came out of his hole and
sat under a tree.

house. 1t looked almost as though he
and his master were waiting for some

Then Bunny Rabbit sat still and
thought a long time II wonder II that
was why he told me about those car
rots," he said at last. He knew all
the time Mr.. Dog was watching right
close to his home, and that he would
chase me II he saw me. and that would
give Mr. Fox a chance to run home, and
he did not care what became Of me.

roads OF any state in the entire south
should every county take advantage
OF the bond issues authorized by the
legislature for road purposes. No
legislature in recent years has been
SO liberal in authorizing bond issues
for good roads
1T has Teen estimated that close to
l$lO,0OO,OO0 in bonds was authorized
for road purposes and It is a pretty
sure thing that large portion of this
amount will be expended during the
next few years for road building. In
addition to this amount many coun.
ties in the state have already built.
or have under construction, roads
costing many millions.
There appears to be a general
awakening all over the state over
this question and there are now but
very few counties in Tennessee that
have not or are now contemplating
issuing bonds for road purposes. The
Bristol to Memphis highway has, it
is said, has been finished more than
half the way and good roads advo.
Gates are working up sentiment in
the counties where the missing lings
exist.
The creation of the good roads

much to the sentiment on this i'm.

were thrown by coming in contact

There was insurance on the build

$780, and the loss is estimated at
about double that amount.

TREATIES FIGURE
IN PROTECTION OF
MIGRATORY BROS
RESOLUTION OF UNITED STATES
SENATE is REPoRTED\oN
FAvoRABLY.
TEXT OF THE RESOLUTION
negotiations Will Have to Be open-
ed with a Number OF Countries
should the Resolution Pass and
Be Approved.

treaties between the United
states and more than dozen for
elgn governments will be necessary.
II plan for international protectio.
OF migratory birds which is eaboa-
led IN Senate Resolution rs, is to be-
fully carried out. This resolution was
introduced recently by Senator
George P. Mclean, of Massachu-
sets, and was favorably reported.
April 8, by the Senate Committee O.
Foreign Relations. There is every
reason to believe that it will soon bs
passed by the Senate.
John b. Burnham, President Of
the American Game Protective and
propagation Association, has lust
had favorable interviews with Prest-
dent Wilson and Secretary of State
Bryan In regard to this matter.
Should the resolution be passed BY
Congress and receive the endorse
ment OF the President, the principal
countries with which it will be
necessary to open negotiations are:
Great Britain, with Canada to the
North and insular possessions to the
south OF us which harbor many Of
our migrants at different seasons:
France, on account of her colonies
in the West Indies and in Guiana.
Japan, with whom we have haS
trouble in the past because of the
activities Of her feather hunters in
the Hawaiian Islands; Mexico,
Brazil, Argentina, Columbia and
Ecuador. There are other countries
with less important possessions to
the South, or near our colonies in
the Pacific. These include Holland
and Denmark, the independent coun.
tries in the West Indies, and other
Republics in South America.
Now that we have given federal
protection to cur migratory birds
the Weeks-McLean Law, the
next step should logically extend
this protection in way that will
prevent a few market gunners and
feather hunters from destroying the
birds that will forever benefit all
countries which they visit, if shoot-
ing is properly regulated.
Following is text of Senator Me-
Leans resolution. Resolved, That
the President be requested to pro.
pose to the Governments of other
countries the negotiation of A con-
vention for the mutual protection
and preservation of BIRDS
