"Say." said Hank Robin as he lit Oh
the front lawn of our house the other
evening just after the rain, II amt got
nothin on anybody, but l would just
like to have the nice lady come on
back home. Here it is l have the
finest home / have ever found in PAIL
SADIE just in the middle of that Won
derful spruce tree on the lawn here,
when who should go trotting off on

ty of worms. But what's worms to
baby robin compared with all the nice
bread the nice lady threw out every
morning? Why, half the time | have
10 swallow the worms myself they, are
so big and curly around here. | never
see so many worms anywhere I've been
before. / don't know what makes it.
When it rains it's worms, worms,
worms till just have to step on them.
There are too many worms here to
suit me. True, | know most robins
don't have anything else but worms,
but they are just your everyday robin.
They are not ariStOcratS used to nice
breadcrumbs like we are Say, the
Old Man came near finding out where
we live the other evening. Darn il, a
little boy came along and L had big
wiggler in my beak sitting up in the
oak ready to hop down and hand it
over to the kids when the pesky thing
curled up around my neck so quickly
that l just gave a squawk and jumped
up in the air about two feet. My, he
nearly choked me! Then the boy
gave a peep into the spruce where our
house is, but he never got to see any
thing, because at that moment a big
touring car came along with one o
them old big rubber bulb horns, and
they sound like they are right at you,
and the boy nearly jumped out of his
skin and ran away about his business.
OF course if the boy had found where
we live he would have told the nice
lady's old man, then there would have
been the deuce to pay"

made sometimes, but | see it was
merely system of looking out for
our wants. Bugs are very objection
able things. They get into gardens,
eat up the vegetables, fly in at the
window and appear to have no mis-
sion except to serve for bird food.
A good fat bug is mighty nice, but
some of them are hard to catch.
guess they know their behavior is
bad, or they would not always be in
trouble. I'd rather eat a fat, juicy
bug when fresh and young than any

not like bugs, but the question | want
to know is, why they have so many
humbugs around?"
