as ever the beavers had. Father
Beaver was glad of that. For If there
vas danger enough for Mickey to
tremble, he didn't SO much mind his
own fear.
Long they waited there; still as still
could be. And then they heard a
faint, oh, such a faint sound as though
some creature was flying through the
air. Immediately Mickey drew . long
breath and raised his head.
"There!" he cried in relief; IT guess
he's gone for the night! And let me
tell you, that's as close as I want to
But who iss he }" asked the four

wonder you didn't know what that
sound was! That was Hoot, the Owl.
