Reddy Fox Has a Funny Feel
ing. !

Swiftly Reddy Fox followed the
strange tracks he had found in the Old
Pasture, and his face was not at all
pleasant to see. His lips were lifted
enough to show his teeth, and in his
eyes was an angry look that seemed to
promise something very unpleasant for
some one. That some one Reddy in
tended to be the strange fox who had
dared to come hunting in the Old Pas
ture You see. Reddy regarded the Old
Pasture and the Green Meadows and
the Green Forest as belonging to Old
Granny Fox and himself. That is. he
felt that no other fox had any right to
hunt there.
THAT fox has got smaller feet than
I have, and sotmust be smaller than
I am. I guess I'll teach him lesson
when 1 catch up with him." he mutter
ed, angrily. Right that very minute a
funny thought popped into Reddy's
head Surprising he was mistaken, and
that instead of him" he should have
said her He stopped to sniff at the
tracks. and, somehow, he didn't know
just why. he became quite sure that
he had been mistaken. and that he
should have said her" instead of him"

way he snapped I'll teach her that
she has no business here. 1t is hard
enough getting enough to eat as it is
So Reddy trotted on swiftly. talking
to himself. saying unpleasant things,
you know. The tracks became fresher.
and when he shifted at them the scent
in them grew stronger with every sniff.
This meant that the one who made
them could not be very far ahead, and
he would soon catch up. And then
Reddy became aware that a funny feel
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1917-02-18

ing was creeping over him. The fresh
err those tracks and the stronger the
scent in them the funnier grew that
feeling. All his anger was slipping
away. Yes, sir his anger was slipping
away. He still made dreadful threats
of what he would do to that stranger,
but right i'll his own heart he knew
that he didn't really mean one of them.
He knew he was Just trying to fool
himself by them. He was more anN-
ious than ever to find that stranger. He
was even hoping that by no chance had
the stranger left the Old Pasture. Such
dainty footprints! He was quite sure
that never had he seen any to be COM
pared with them.
Suddenly Reddy had feeling that
some one was watching him. Perhaps
you have had that feeling yourself
some time. 1t made him stop and stare
very hard at clump of bushes just
ahead. Did something move there
forward. and as he did so a slim red
form bounded out from the bushes and
away. 1t was the stranger! At the
sight of the stranger the funny feeling
which had been stealing over Reddy
grew still more funny. 1t took away
every bit of anger and in its place left
a great desire to make friends with
this stranger, for she was very beau
tlful. Reddy was quite sure that she
was the most beautiful fox he ever had
seen, the most Deautlful foX that ever
lived.
Now, instead of wanting to drive her
away he was afraid. terribly afraid that
she would go away. and he would never
see her again. He wanted her to stay.
Wait! Please don't CO." he called,
and ran after her.
But she was very timid, was this
strangr and very swift of foot Though
Reddy ran his fastest he got no more
than glimpse of her red cloak now
and then as she twisted this way and
