Happy Jack Squirrel Drops a Nut

highest branches Of a big hickory
tree. Happy Jack was up very early
that morning. In fact jolly. r. ind.

Washed himself thoroly and was all
ready for business by the time Mr..
Isun began his climb Up the blue. blue

You sea. Happy Jack had found a
big hickory tree just loaded with
nuts. all ripe and ready TO gather.
He was quite sure that no one else
had found that special tree, and he
wanted TO get all the nuts before any
one else found out about them. Sc
be was ready. and off he raced 10 the

Happy Jack was humming this
little song as he rested for a few
minutes way up In the top of the
tree. and wondered IL his storehouse
would hold all these big, fat nuts.
Just then he heard great scolding
little way over In the Green Forest.
Happy Jack stopped humming and
listened. He knew that voice. II
was his cousins voice-tke voice Of
Chatterer the Red Squirrel. Happy
Jack frowned. II hope he won't

cousin Chatterer anyway, and then
there WAS the big tree full Of hick-

am afraid that HAPPY Jack was
selfish. There were more nuts than
he could possibly eat in one winter.
and yet he wasn't willing that his
