PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
BY DAVID CORY,

! that the enemy ran away and the tents
were set up, until the field where they
had been fighting looked like a tented
city, only 1t didn't have any quiet little
church or schoolhouse.
And when everything was quiet the
general pinned a little gold medal on
Puss Junior for bravery, and our little
hero felt very proud, and he TOLD his
little drum to be brave and not be
afraid, for he would never let the enemy
get it from him, not If he had to fight
the biggest man In the whole hostile
army! Wasn't that brave In him?
And many times Puss Junior thought
of his dear old father at the castle OF my
Lord of Carabas and the quiet silver moat
| full of silver fish that darted here and
there in the sparkling water, and maybe
| he wished he was back at the castle, but
| he never said so, for he was too brave
little cat for that, you may be sure.
Day after day they drilled and marched
and at last they came up with the enemy
again and there was a dreadful battle
and when 1t was all over Puss Junior
found himself at the edge of some woods
with a bullet wound in his leg.
He was all alone with his little drum
And night came down and he was faint
and hungry and very miserable. Neither
could he sleep, for his leg panied him
! dreadfuIy. Well, by and by, when the
big moon was high In the sky and all
wouldn't go to sleep but played hide aud
seek among the leaves on the tall dark
trees, a little owl few down and sang
/ to Puss Junior.
And In tomorrow's story will tell you
how Puss Junior again goes out to seek
his fortune.-Copyright, 1920.
