Peter Rabbit Sees a Feather.

Now, whoever would think that a
little feather could be very. very i'm
portant to any one? 1t was just a
tiny. little feather. floating down from
big pine tree, the most unimportant
and innocent-looking little feather that
ever was. If you or ] had been there
we probably would not have noticed it
at all. If we had, it wouldn't have
meant anything to US. And yet that
innocent-looking little feather upset
the plans of three rogues, though they
don't know ii to this day. and smart as
they are they still wonder how Peter
Rabbit found out that he was being
followed and spied upon.
You see. it was this way: Peter has
a lot more shrewdness in that funny
little head Of his than some of his
neighbors give him credit for. None
of them ever think of him as being
smart like Reddy Fox or Old Man
Coyote. who are noted for their smart
ness. Yet, with all their smartness
they haven't caught Peter yet. That is
because Peter has proved to be smarter
than they. But his neighbors never
think of it in this way. They say that
Peter is lucky. Now. you know and I
know that the biggest and best part
of Peters luck is nothing more nor less
Yes, sir, Peter is smart If he wasn't
he would have been gobbled up long
ago. Now, when he was very young e
he learned one thing of the very great

learned that the little things in life

Is why he took particular note of that
little feather floating down from the
big pine tree. When he had left the
dear Old Brier Patch to go to the Green
Forest he had felt very sure that no
one was watching him. Still there
might be. and so as he scampered along
deeper and deeper into the Green For

I'm sure that no one has seen me or

he drew near the Great Rock under

anxious to find out my secret-the Sc

wouldn't be surprised to see one of
them pop out from behind a tree any

let on that he had seen the feather. He
didn't even look up in the big pine

Our heads at that time were filled
with stories of SO to 81 profit per year

sink in very deep. We didn't plunge
on chickens, for the simple reason that
we didn't have money to pay for the
plunSing. and that very shortage of
cash-which we lamented at the time
probably has been our salvation.

to discuss the advisability of selling
James bond and investing in the
chicken business some of the $4,000

been consecrated to the purchase of a

are today truly thankful.
Don't jump to the conclusion that we
have given up the notion of making
money from chickens, for we have done
nothing of the kind. The one thing we
have resolved upon is that we shall not
invest any more money in the bust

In view of the superiority of the

President Wilson has until midnight
