Reddy Fox thought of that saying Of
Unc' Billy's good many times as he
hunted through the Green Forest that
night, afraid to go home. You see, he
had almost dined on Quacker the Duck

then hadn't, and 1t was all his own

bank he had watched Quacker swim in

senses. Indeed. Reddy had been quite

wasn't until he saw that curiosity was
drawing Quacker right in. so that in a
minute or two Granny would be able
to catch him. that he understood that
Granny was anything but crazy. and
really was teaching him a new trick as
well as trying to catch dinner.
When he realized this he ought to
have been ashamed of himself for
doubling the smartness of Granny and
for thinking that he knew all there
was to know. But he was too much
excited for any such thoughts. Nearer

Of the county, and possibly because
they plow their burrows a bit wider

, So it was anything but a happy
thought that prompted the agent of a
local automobile house to take on Mr..
Ludlow as a possible purchaser. 1t is
not yet clear just what attracted him
10 Mr.. Ludlow. Some think the formi-
dable array OF newspapers he represents,
as chronicled in the Congressional
Directory. was the main reason. but
there are those who think the agent
was given a wrong steer. just to add a
bit of excitement to Louis routine life.
He found Ludlow in his Munsey build
ing office. just rea ching for his hat.
The agent mentioned he would like TO
have few minutes conversation and
thought he could interest Mr.. Ludlow.
The latter replied he was inyaa hurry
and that they could talk as he journey

make fairly good start with his dis

In the second block the agent began to
show signs of doubt as to whether this
was Mr.. Ludlow's normal gait or
something he used to eliminate trou-
blesome agents. He decided to stick
to it for another block. His words
were now coming jerky and he was

on right up on shore? If he only came
close to shore Granny would get him.
Nearer and nearer and nearer he came.
Reddy squrmed uneasily. He couldn't
see as we'll as he wanted to. The BUSH
es behind which he was lying were in
his way. He wanted to see Granny
make that jump which would mean
dinner for both of them.
Forgetting what Granny had charged
him. Reddy eagerly raised his head to
look over the edge of the bank. Now,
it just happened that at that very min
ute Qaacker CHANGED to look that way:
His quick eyes caught the movement of
Reddy's head, and in an instant all his
curiosity vanished. That sharp face
peering at him over the edge of the
bank could mean but one thing-dan-
ger! 1t was all trick! He saw
through it now. Like a flash he
turned. There was the whistle OF stih
wings beating the air and the patter
of feet striking the water as he got
under way, and then he flew out to the
safety of the open water. Granny
sprang. but she was just too late. and
succeeded in doing no more than wet
her feet
OF course, Granny didn't know what
had frightened the Quacker. not at
first, anyway. But she had her suspi-
cions She turned and looked up at
the place where Reddy had been hid
ing. She couldn't see him. Then she
bounded up the bank. There was no
Reddy there. but far away across the
snow covered Green Meadows was
red spot, growing smaller and smaller.
Reddy was running away. Then she
knew. At first Granny was very angry.
You know, it is a dreadful thing to be
terribly hungry and have good din
ner disappear just as it is almost with
in reach.

she muttered, as she watched him.
Then she went back to the edge of the
Big River, and there she found dead
fish which had been washed ashore. 1t
was a very good fish, and by the time
she had eaten it Granny felt better.
Anyway" thought she. II have
taught him a new trick, and one he
isn't likely to forget. He knows now
that Granny still knows a few tricks
that he doesn't, and next time he won't
feel so sure he knows it all: 90 I guess
it was worth while. even II ! didn't
catch Quacker. My. but he would have
tasted good" Granny smacked her
lips and started for home.
But Reddy. with q guilty conscience.
