what would happen then.
His wife shuddered. But Mr.. ROBIN
/ told her not TO worry.

can fly as well as anybody" he deelar-
ed.
So he went and hoped about on the
Ground with Jolly for a little WHILE
! showing him how TO find worms be-
meath the grass carpet of the orchard.
And then, in loud voice, Mr.. ROD
in suddenly cried:
''The cat! The cat!" And he flew
i into an old tree nearby.
Jolly Robin had never seen Farmer
Green's cat But he had heard that
she was dreadful fierce creature
And when his father shouted her name
Holly was so startled that he forgot he
didn't quite know how to fly. Before
he knew what he was doing, he follow
led his father right up into the old ap-
pie tree and perched himself on a low
branch.
That was the way he learned to fly,
for he never had the least trouose
about it afterward. And as soon as he
realized that he had actually flown
from the ground to the bough he was
so pleased that he began to laugh mer-
rily.
As for the cat, she was not in the
orchard at all. Indeed, Jolly's father
had not said that she was. You see,
he had played joke on his son.
Now, up to that time Jolly ROBIN
had not been named. You must re-
member that he was not two weeks
old. And having three other children
of the same age, his parents had moi
been able to think of names for all
of them.
But this big youngster laughed Sc
heartily that his father named hin
Jolly" on the spot. And Jolly ht
remained ever afterward.
