at the old Crows Nest, which was a
sort of Crow Village between four
trees quite far off from the Corn Field.
On their way through they had seen
a Scare Crow in the Corn Field and
then knew what the Crows had been
doing.
'Caw-Caw,' said the Crows to-
gether. and the Brownies threw their
high brown hats up in the air, and
said: Hello, Crows, we're glad to see
you. We hope you're we'll
THAT'S the very word for the way
we feel said Black Crown Crow, who
was the leader in the Crow Village.
Shall we be of? We have an air boat

"fOh. it's got birch bark underneath
so you won't fall through said Black
Crown Crow-fbut we only must speak
about the Corn Silk because it's so su-

thing which he couldn't quite make
