Meets a Frog
and Learns of Frog
Life and Tricks
By MARGARET McSHANE.
(Seyenth Story Of the Mighty

~ HADOWS of the Night were
shortening. Mother and Fa-
~ Their Moon, sailing slowly on
their way through the clouds, had
more than half encircled the blue
arch of Skyland. They were just
about ready to dip behind the West
ern Hill to take peep into the land
of the birds, the trees, the flowers
and the little boys and girls away
off east of the Sun in China.
The Moonbeam saw that Father
and Mother Moon were far along
on their journey. She knew, too,
that soon the first bright glow Of
light in the east would lift the
Nights hazy blanket. BY that time
she must be safely home; so she
hurried over to the pond to say
goodbye to her friends, the Frogs.
She found one large Frog sitting
Independently, self-composed, and
very much alert under the beauti-
full sheltering growth of a pond lily.
She heard him give lively croak,
A second, a third, fourth croak
followed Then many others ac
companied these, until whole med
ley of strange sounds rose from the
vicinity of the pond. This continued
for some time. Then suddenly one
voice stopped and instantly all was
hushed.
MY, what beautiful chorus you
have, Mr.. Froggy. / am so glad to
hear one before I go back home to
Mother and Father Moon, for |
have heard great deal about them.
Have Frog choruses leaders, who
signal others when to begin and sig
nal again to stop at the approach OF
danger?"
The Frog turned quickly and
looked up at the Moonbeam. You
are very much mistaken, Moonbeam.
We Frogs are extremely alert in
sight and hearing, especially in
sight. The Pond was very still
when you approached. There was
no movement along its edge or
through the weeds and shrubbery
nearby. One of our family, realiz.
izing the extreme safety of the
hour, began to express his happl-
ness at the mere joy of living. His

croak was the sign to the other
Frogs in the Pond that no enemy
was near, and, looking about them,
their eyes gave them second evil
dence Of this safety. Then one by
one all Joined freely in the happy
chorus. At your unlooked.fot APP
proach one Frog saw your light
darting quickly back and forth. He
was frightened because he did not
know WHO you we're, and instantly
became silent. The others observed
his silence, and knew that silence
was a danger signal, SO every Frog
in the pond obeyed this keen i'm
pulse of fear and likewise becaume
silent"
We'll, l do declare, you are
smart lot" exclaimed the Moon
beam.
mo, never have we Frogs been
considered smart. In fact, they say
we possess a low order of animal
intelligence, but we have two great
emotions, Joy and Fear. Our joy
we express in song, and we feel
quickly the approach of danger.
when wandering a short dis
lance from the pond, for instance,
one of our number may see an enc
my ahead. We sense everything
bird, bear, dog, or even man,
and at the approach of anything
alive a familiar splash will be
heard. This splash means a Frog
has seen danger. Frogs, you know,
always prefer to walk or jump a
short distance to the edge of the
water and then slip lightly into it
and swim away. After this sudden
splash, a second one and third one
is heard. The first splash was the
signal Of approaching danger. and

Our Seaside Picnic.

HONORABLE MENTION.
Hello, Busy Bees! How are you
all? l thought | would write after
being silent so long. / am writing
about our picnic on the seashore.
This happened three years ago, DUR
ing our visit to California. Some
relatives invited (my father, sister
and Ine) to participate in a picnic
on the seashore. We thought it
would be great sport, so we ac-
cepted the invitation. Arriving on
the shore, we secuted around to find
a suitable place for depositing our
selves and lunch basket. We soon
discovered a group of nice flat
rocks situated near the waters edge,
and giving good view Of the cliffs
and ocean. Our party scrambled
upon them and we selected the flat.
est and largest for the dinner table.
My sister and / were assigned the
task of gathering drift wood to
make fire. Soon one was roaring
merrily, while my cousin made the
coffee.
Now, Busy Bees, you know that
at most picnics the customary foods
are pickles, sandwiches, olives,
bananas, and other good things. We
had pickles, olives and bananas. We
also had sandwiches of two differ
emit varieties, real honest-to-good-
ness bread and filling sandwiches,
and real sandy sandwiches. You
hardly knew whether you were eat
ing bread or sand. The reason we
ate the sandwiches so quickly was
because | had gotten a glimpse of
a nice, big watermelon and roast
chicken. The watermelon had been
put in low place in the rock where
the cold salt water could reach it.
You can imagine how good it was.
The watermelon was fine, but I'll
never forget that roast chickenl

Dogs Of the Far North
BY L. v. KELLY.

TO those who are blessed with
the benefits Of modern transportation
facilities il is hard to realise that
there are parts Of the continent
where nature is so wild and rough
that it is almost impossible for man
to travel. In broad sections Of the
forest and mountain districts of
northern British Columbia this is
particularly true, travel being pos
sible in any season only to men on
foot and to the most agile Of ami
mails. Horses or others of the
usual beasts of burden can make
no progress through the tangles of
fallen timbers, swamps, rocks and
jungle. Yet mans best friend has
proven his ability again to come to
the assistance of his master. In
summer, spring and fall, he Is the
pack-dog. bearing on his back such
supplies as his master cannot carry;
in winter he is the sled-dog, draw
ing the loaded sled. The accom-
panying photograph was taken in

road Dogs and men live On the
game killed and on the essential tea
and sugar and bacon carried in the

road to the river. There we're many
pretty flowers along the roadside,
She came to a place where there
were many trees. She heard a noise
and, looking up, she saw some
smoke and a bird flying around in
il. There were twigs ahre in her
nest. The bird tried to save her
