And said, "No matter what befalls,
In style l shall not lack"
He creased 'em down the front with

He fortified the seat,
And gained touch quite debonnaire
With cuffs around the feet.
And when the tailor saw the style
Which he had thus attained
He turned with a contented smile
And to the clerk explained:

Just now would seem astute,
The price of overalls will be

opossum family. We have long, thin
toes and when we walk over the
marshy ground or where it is muddy it
Is very easy to know which trail is
ours.
eve have coarse hair except on our
tail and ears. Our shouts aren't very
beautiful. They look too much like
those Of the pig family, but, of course,
we cannot be perfect in every way.
eve aren't too fussy about our food
for we eat meat as well as vegetables,
and that is a good way to be. Pussy
eaters are very difficult to get along
with; they are always complaining
and wanting something they don't see.
"But it is not of our tastes in food
Of which I want to tell you," Mother
Opossum continued. Il want to tell
you the truth about the opossum fam
fly, or in other words, true opossum
story.
"For years and years and years our
chief trick, if you want to call 1t that,
was to play that we were no longer
alive when an enemy came around.
ut was our little way Of protecting
ourselves and it has been done by all
opossums for as long as there have
been opOSsumS.
1--WE have always known that the
wisest thing to do was to appear life
less. We have been moved about and
we have pretended we could not move
Of our own accord.
"We have been lifted up and put
down in a certain position and we
have stayed in that position.
1--WE haven't been willing to let folks
know when we were alive for we have
protected ourselves so long and so well
by pretending we were not when we
were met.
"But this is the truth of the whole
story and this is what want to tell
you.
1T is true that this is what we have
always done and hope we will always
have the sense to do it. think opos-
sums will never forget about the great
opossum trick which Is such a protec-
ton to them for we are so good at
pretending when we're thinking of our
protection.
"But it is not true that we do this
because we are cowardly. No, indeed,
the opossum is not cowardly. We try
to be as safe as we can and so we
hunt at night, but everyone tries to
think of their safety and does not try
to be foolhardy.
"All Of that is true, but we play we
are not alive when attacked as our
means Of looking after ourselves as we
have always done. Every creature
must have some way of looking aftes
itself and that Is ours, but children
let no one tell you that the opossum is
not brave, for that is not the truth
The opossum, too. is strong; yes, that
is the truth"
