CHAPTER III
The OQye Ts Fooled

TNHE Flying ogre was coming at a
l. rate which would bring him over
head in minute or two. Peggy and
Billy knew that the geese would have to
be out OF sight by that time or he would
be sure to catch them.

beautiful Blue Goose.

but when he looked around for hid

small clump of bushes--and the clump
wasn't nearly large enough to conceal
all the geese Peggy also had her eyes
en- that clump, and although 1t seemed
small her nimble brain had already
formed plan for using it to escape
the Flying ogre.

Great idea :" shouted Billy. "Hus-

The geese didn't have such quick
brains as the children. and besides they

grasp the plan at once. But after Peggy
and Billy had showed several into place,
the others quickly followed. Not all
could hide their heads in the bushes,

For an hour they talked, and Philip
went over one by one the events as
they had occurred since the fight on
the cliff. emitting only such things
as he thought that Jeanne and Pierre
might wish to keep secret to them
selves. At the end of that hour he was
