by Thornton w. Burgess

When Chatterer the Red Squirrel dis

shocks of his whole life Yes, sir he did
At first he had seen only big bushy
tail, and he had at once thought it be-
lclgcd to his cousin, Happy Jack the
Gray Squirrel Just as he had opened
his mouth to say something hateful the
owner of that tail had come into full
view, and it wasn't Happy Jack at all,
but a stranger.

turned so that Chattercr could see his
walstcoat. Chatterers own walstcoat is
white. but the strangers was reddish.
BUT 1t was not alone that red coat
that gave Charterer p shock The size
OF the stranger was almost as much of

Happy Jack is very much bigger than

that Chatterer felt very small indeed
II gave him a queer feeling. Somehow
he couldn't get over the feeling that his
eyes were playing him tricks. To ind
another member of his family with red
ccat was bad enough, for Chatterer has
always taken pride in the color of his
coat. but TO find him also the biggest
member of the family was worse.
To add TO Chatterer's dismay the
stranger seemed to be making himself
quite at home. He acted for all the
world as if he had come TO stay and
was very well satisfied withs his sur
