Heah, you give dem some OBJ desc

So Alice placed two handfuls of
the crumbs in a small paper bag and
hurried back to the window. The bird
was gone! She opened the window
and looked out Not a bird was in

of the crumbs on the ledge below and

In Il moment or two another feath-

off. Alice was so disappointed.
Come back, birdies,' she called.
please come back! l wouldn't hurt
YOU! Don't you want these goody
crumbs?"
But the birds did not stop TO listen.
She went to Aunt Dinah, as she
did when anything troubled her. And
Aunt Dinah told her the birds didn't
know they could trust her. Aunt
Dinah suggested that every morning
right after breakfast Alice should
scatter crumbs on the ledge, then close
the window and wait The birds would
come-she was sure of that.
So. the next morning Alice did IS
old Aunt Dinah had told her to; and
presently the birds came-lots of
them. And how they did enjoy their
meal
For many mornings Alice fed them
in this manner. Then, gradually the
birds became accustomed to seeing her
and Alice raised the window inch by

up 10 him and tell him, but you fell
lows were crowding around and-and
well. 1 just couldn't do it! Then,
later on, I wanted to know how he
was but just couldn't go % his house
and ask. And you fellows kept telling
me how 1t wasn't my fault and how
sorry you were and how I mustn't take
it too hard-when-when all the time
knew it was my fault, that 1 had
done it on purpose. That's what's
been worrying me, VIII, and-and l

VIII thought for a long, long while.

had said to him once when he had

Il think. Bud, that you should go to
Phil-go tonight-and tell him lust
what you told me and-and-andt tell
him to tell you just what he thinks

ought to do"
Bud did. too. Not at first: but by
evening he had worked 1t all out to
this conclusion. So he saw Phil and
manfully told him the whole misera-

Phil, however. didn't tell him what
he thought OF him. Instead, he shook
his hand and told him to forget it."

if he were tired he would seek a cabin

y window Of her nursery staring
out Whew! but it was cold!
"a The ground was all covered with
snow and great icicles were hanging
from the caves Of the houses and from
the branches of the trees. a sharp.
high wind was blowing and whistling
around the corner of the building.
Presently a lone, wet, miserable
looking little bird fiuttered down on
the roof of the small balcony directly
below the window through which she
was looking. Such cold, unhappy,
starving little fellow he wasi He hop
ped gingerly about the ledge, ran his
head YEARLY under his wings several
times and then looked up at her as
much as to say, Cant you do any
thing for me, Alice-can't you do any
thing at all?"
II do believe" cried Alice. that he
is hungry! Poor little birdie! No
wonder-with all this snow on the
ground. I'll get Aunt Dinah to give
me some crackers" And. with that,
