When the word went forth among
the little people of the Green For
est that old Mrs. Possum was TAX.
ing her family out for a walk every
day, every body who could made an
excuse to just happen around near
Unc' Billy's hollow tree. Each one
tiled his best to appear as IL he had
just happened along that way. You
see IT isn't considered good man
ners to show TOO much interest in
any ones family, not among the
little people OF the Green Forest
and the Green Meadows anyway.
So each one tried his best 10 ap-
pear very much surprised when he
met old Miss Possum and her big
family, and. OF course. each one
fastened TO say the very incest
things he could think OF about those
Possum babies. Old Mrs Possum
paid no attention whatever 10 what
was said. Indeed, she appeared to
take no notice at all OF her neigh
bors. She went right about her bus
mess as IL no one was there. At
least that is the way It seemed. But
after a little Peter Rabbit noticed
that whenever Granny or Reddy
Fox or Old Man Coyote or Redtail
the Hawk happened to be anywhere
near. she always seemed TO have
business up In the trees, while when
he or Chatterer the Red Squirrel or
Striped Chipmunk OF Sammy jay
or Tommy Tit the Chickadee or
Whitefoot the Wood Mouse were
about, she seldom or never climbed
a tree, but was tremendously busy
on the ground hunting for insects
and digging out tender roots and as
usual seeming TO pay no attention
TO any one. Then Peter made mp
his mind that old Mrs. Possum was
n lot shrewder and more clever than
she looked. and that while she
seemed to be paying no attention 20
her neighbors she was watching
every minute and she knew all
about the interest her big family
had aroused.
Peter was right. Old Mrs Pos.
sum knew perfectly we'll why Reddy
and Granny Fox and Old Man Coy.
ote visited that part Of the Green
Forest so much, often two or three
times a day. and why they were
always so polite 10 her and inquired
so earnestly after her health and
the health OF her family She knew
that they were quite as much inter
ested as they professed to be. Yes.
indeed. she knew all that hut she
also knew that II wasn't because the
