and had him smell all around it, OF
course, Bowser didn't find any trace of
Grumpy. because Grumpy hadn't been
near the foot Of the tree. Then Farmer
Browns boy was sure that Grumpy
couldn't be up there, because it didn't
once enter his head that he could have
got there any way but up the trunk OF
the tree, and IL he had gone up that
way Bowser would have smelled his
tracks.
At last Farmer Browns boy whistled
to Bowser, and they went away They
had given up looking for him because
they had looked everywhere they could
think of. Grumpy sighed a tiny sigh of
relief. He looked down in the pen
where Bunny and Frumy were and
chuckled again. He would see more of
the Great World, and then perhaps he
would come back and tell them about
1t. The thing that interested him most
just now was the henhouse. Through
the wire netting of his pen he had
watched the hens running about and
going in and out of their house. He
just itched to see what was inside tina
house. He had feeling that he would
find 1t very interesting.
He would stay right where he was
until everything was quiet and the way
was clear. Then he would slip down
the tree when no one was looking and
satisfy his curiosity. There was plenty
of time. He was free and could do ar
he pleased. He hadn't got to hurry Sd
he made himself comfortable and
waited.

Where Grumpy Was and What
He Did.

All the time that Farmer Browns boy
and Bowser the Hound were hunting
| for Grumpy that little scamp Of Pos
sum was watching them and chucklfns
| to himself. 1t was a great Joke. Yes
sir. 1t certainly was a great joke. The
| more they hunted the greater the joke
seemed. It is always fun to fool other
people. Grumpy liked to fool his broth
ers, but 1t was ever so much more fun
| to fool such smart people as Farmer
Browns boy and Bowser the Hound. Sc
Grumpy chuckled to himself. but took
the greatest care that no one should
hear him.
Where was he? Why he was up in a
| crotch of a tree that grew very close to
the pen Farmer Browns boy had built
for him and his brothers. Bunny and
F'rumpy. He had been sitting on the
shoulder of Farmer Browns boy when
the latter walked under a branch of the
tree. 1t was low hanging branch and
| the leaves actually tick1ed the top OF
Grumpy's head. Almost without think
| ing he reached up and caught hold OF
| the slender twigs. Then he pulled him
self up and ran along the branch to the
place where it grew out OF the trunk OF
the tree. He climbed up the trunk to a

ground and made himself comfortable
while he waited to see what would
happen. He knew that he hadn't been
missed, for Farmer Browns boy was SO
busy playing with Bumpy and Frumpy
that he had quite forgotten him.
He saw Bumpy and Frumpy put back
in their pen and then he watched Far
mer Browns boy hunt for him. 1t puz-
zled him at first to know what Bowser
the Hound was doing, but after watch
ing him a while he guessed Bowser was
trying to find his tracks. Right then
and there Grumpy knew that he had
learned something. 1t wouldn't do to
travel on the ground when Bowser the
Hound was around. He was glad that
| he had found 1t out, because it might
save him from a great deal of trouble
| later on. If he didn't want to be caught
| it wouldn't do to leave tracks that
Bowsers wonderful nose could follow.
Once he thought he was going to be
discovered. Farmer Browns boy looked
! up in the tree. Grumpy sat very still
Farmer Browns boy didn't see him

CONTRIBUTORS TO MISSIONS
IN LIBERAL FRAME OF MIND
Leaders of Six Big Missionary Societies Make This
Statement They Close Up Books for
Past Twelve Months

The Protestant missionary societies.
through which Americans handle $685.
600 a year. are just closing their books.
and report finding givers throughout
the middle west. the south and the
Pacific coast in more liberal frame of
mind than those in Pennsylvania. New
Jersey, New York and New England.
This statement comes from all of the
six big societies involved. Baptists
come nearest to holding up to their
normal in the matter of receipts. Con-
gregationalists expect to fall little
behind and Presbyterians seem to be
taking the brunt and faring less well
than the others
Both home and foreign Baptist soci-
cites report about the Same income as
last year. Plans for advance made last
year and this will have to be given up.
