So that was the reason why Curry
stole away from home, He felt tha'
he simply must see a moving machine
Nothing but the sight of mowin3-
machine would make him happy. He
was sure of that.
Now. where Farmer Green's meadow
met the forest. Cuffy paused. He hid
behind a tree and looked out over the
field. The click-clack sounded quite
loud now. And from the other side
of the meadow Cuffy could see two
horses coming towards him. There
was a man driving them. And CulaA
thought that they must be drawing the
mowing-machine. So he waited quiet
ly. And all the time the click-clack-
cllck-cla grew louder than ever. And
pretty soon, as he peeped slyly around
the tree, Cuffy Bear saw the moving
machine 1t came delightfully."- close to
him, stopped turned about, and moved
away again toward the opposite side of
the field
Cuffy gave a great sigh of satisfac-
ton He had seen a mowing-machine
He was glad that he had come down
into the valley He was not the least
bit sorry that he had disobeyed his
parents and stolen away from home.
Yes, Cuffy was feeling very happy
as he went prowling along the border
of the forest. He crept in and out of
the bushes that fringed the bayfield,,
and was having altogether a most
pleasant time; until all at once he stop
ped short. Cuffy's nose shifted the air
for a moment, and the hairs on his
back bristled just like those on a dog
when he is stalled. Cuffy had caught
a strange odor in the air.
At first he was frightened. But after
he had shifted the air a few times he
decided that whatever it was that he
smelled, it had good, pleasant odor,
and made him think of Something to
eat.
So Cuffy Bear began to nose about
among the bushes. And presently he
discovered hidden away beneath a
clump of ferns "a basket of delicious
food. 1t was the haymakers' lunch
that Cuffy had found. And he lost nc
time. He began to eat as fast as he
could. Yes-I am very sorry to say
that Cuffy actually gobbled Farmer
Green's lunch. And he was so greedy
