have noticed that all the Others run
and try to get it and In tEe end no one
has anything to show for the struggle.
Nov, my advice is that each one Of
you scratch for yourself and let your
neighbor alone, even If he or she has
a larger worm than you have, for If
you drop the one you have found
someone viii come along and eat it
and in the end you will be the loser
Mr.. Rooster strutted away feeling
that he had done his family great
service and looking very important and
wise.
All the fowl looked after him and
no one moved until old Mrs. Hen said:
81 wonder If old Mr.. Rooster really
meant what he said: never saw any
of our family that would not grab a
big worm when It had a chance" and
off she ran, followed by all the others.
for they well knew that old Mrs. Hen
knew just where to look for the finest
worms.
Now, 1t happened the old Mr.. Roost-
er saw them all running and he saw
Mrs. Hen ahead. so he, too, ran to see
what was going on
When they reached Mrs. Hen she
was pulling from the wet earth very
fine large worm and every hen and
chicken dashed to her side, but before
anyone got a piece old Mr.. Rooster
few over their heads with outspread
and Tapping wings.
He landed right In tie midst of the
struggling fowl and before old Mrs.
Hen could collect her wits Mr.. Roost-
er had the big worm In his beak and
was running away.
OF course. no one saw him eat it
and later all he said was that every
time he saw a struggle he should t1ke
the worm, but he did not say what he
should do with it.
"He ate 1t, my dears," said old Mrs.
Hen. 81 am sure of 1t, and he will take
every one we find If he sees 1t, SO we
better be careful"
There was no more quarreling
among Mr.! Rooster's family after that
and as he walked around the yard he
said to himself, you have to use
force when they will not listen to rea-
son, but that certainly was a fine.

bushes.
She was lucky enough to get very
large one the first scratch, but before
size had it dragged from the ground
out ran all the others and began to
tug and pull until In the end no one
got the worm.
''Now, what a silly family I have"
thought old Mr. Rooster, who had not
run with the others. 'All so greedy

silly they are"
In spite of the worms, when Mr..
Rooster called his family they all
came running to see what he wanted.

he said. '.the worms viii be very thick

MIR. ROOsTER's ADVICE


TT WAS raining very fast and all the
4 hens and chickens were sitting un-
der the bushes at one corner of the
yard waiting for the rain to be over,
for each knew the worms would then
be easier to find.
Old Mr.. Rooster was watching with
the rest OF the family. He had lived
at the farm longer than the others and
so was considered very wise and was
very much respected.
The hens taught their chicks to look
upon old Mr.. Rooster as their protec-
tor and as one to be listened to In all
things.
When the rain was over young Mrs.
Hen jumped up to scratch for worms
