The Old Briar-PatCh Seems
Deserted.
APPEARING so oft deceive
lis hard to know what TO believe.

When Sammy Jay left Reddy Fox he
of what had become of Peter Rabbit,
and this was a relief. But. of course,
| it left Sammy no wiser than before.
THE next thing to do is to visit the
Old Briar Patch and see if | can find
Peter there. If he isn't there, perhaps
little Mrs. Peter can tell me what has
become of him." thought Sammy.
To think is to act with Sammy Jay.
and he headed straight for the dear
Old Briar-Patch. 1t just happened that
the edge of the dear Old Briar-Patch
and saw Sammy when he was still
some distance away Mrs. Peter wasted
no time. The babies were taking
nap well hidden as usual. Peter was
doing not far away Mrs Peter hur-
ried over to him and gave him d poke.
Follow me and hurryi" she command
ed. sharply
Peter long ago learned to do as he
was told and ask questions later, so he
| obediently followed little Mrs. Peter.
! She led the way to an old hole in the
ground in the very middle of the Old
Briar-Patch. 1t had been dug long ago
by Johnny ChuckS grandfather Peter
and Mrs. Peter sometimes used it in
bad weather. Straight into this she
led the way, with Peter at her heels.
| Once they were inside Peter ventured
a question.
whats the trouble now?" he asked.
Sammy Jay is coming" whispered
| little Mrs. Peter
Pooh. Is that ALP exclaimed Peter.
Sammy can't hurt anybody
Perhaps he can't, but once he dis
covers our secret the whole world will
| know it, retorted Mrs. Peter. And
once the secret is out our worries will
begin. Now. mind you, keep still.
Wen make him think no one is at
| home"
! When Sammy reached the dear Old
| Briar-Patch he flew to a certain little
| tree close by the place which he knew
| to be Peters favorite resting place
OF course, Peter wasn't there. Then
| Sammy flew to where he usually found
| little Mrs. Peter. OF course, she wasn't
there. After that he flew all over the
dear Old BriarPatch, peering into
every part of it with those sharp eyes
! of his. All the time he made no sound.
But when he became sure that he
couldn't find either Peter or little Mrs.
Peter he tried calling them.
Peter. Peter Rabbit he called,
then cooked his head to listen. OF
course, Peter didn't reply.
| Mrs. Peter" Oh, Mrs. Peter. I've
got news of Peter for you" called
! Sammy.
Mrs. Peter chucke1 softly. HE
| thinks that if you are not at home I'll
| be SO worried that I'll be sure to an
swer to that whispered she in one
| of Peters long ears.
| Sammy called and called, but all in
vain. The dear Old Briar-Patch seemed
| deserted. 1t gave Sammy a queer feel
ing. Somehow, he couldn't imagine the
dear Old Briar-Patch without Peter or
Mrs. Peter there. He knew what a
HON Glowing body little Mrs Peter was
and to find her gone quite upset him.
Either something dreadful has hap
pened to both of them or they have
moved away" thought Sammy. ut is
queer. very pueer. 1 don't like it. I
don't like it bit"
Then he started for the Old Orchard
| to spread the news that the dear Old
Briar-Patch was deserted.

no value to a safety engineer or
superintendent of an establishment
unless adequate provision is made
for the study and proper interpre-
tation of accident figures. If this
is done, you can rest assured that
the correlated information assem-
bled from accident tabulation will
be of incalculable service in min
imizing minor and serious acct
dents. Instead of specifically sing
ling out each contributing cause
at random, it would be advisable to
select the first five or ten highest
causes which as a rule represent
the major portion Of the frequency
and severity experience in almost
every extra hazardous indutry. BY
following this practice, the safety
engineer will be able to ascertain,
and so far as practicable, select
from all of the contributing agen-
cies, the principal hazards of an
establishment. This will enable
him to confine his activities and
concentrate his efforts more effect
lively upon the first five or ten
principal contributing causes that
are creating the majority of minor
and serious accidents.

principal hazards of the six basic
