how queer you do act! I'm more

PEGGY firmly. Think how the Puritan

Emily, I'm going out through the

surface. you're going off and leave

"Only for a minute. S-s-sh!"
Peggy Kissed. "Listen!"

After that there was such a buzz OF
excited talk that nobody did quite re-
member who said what. But every
body was happy and making joyous
plans and everybody vas brimming
over with interesting ideas.
The next two weeks were busy ones.
All the clothing and furniture and toys
and everything had to be packed for
shipping. And in addition to that
work, Mr.. and Mrs. barrow found time
to take the children down town and
select garden tools and make inquiry
about chicken houses and supplies.

I will depend on you for a certain

to show through the earth marks. And
then. before the children recovered
from their amazement enough to
speak again, the little creature gave a
few long leaps and was out Of sight in
the hedge.
Now what do you think OF that?"
demanded Florence. 1T came to life.
Where was it all the timer"
Hid in the ground" said Bob. I'VE
studied frogs this morning in opening
exercises, but I never guessed I would
see a really one do that! You see,
Miss Gilbert read to US out of a book
all about frogs. Frogs spend the win
ter down in the earth-they burrow
down in. in the fall. And there they
live without food all winter. In the
spring they come out-I suppose our
digging hurried this fellow a few days
but he didn't seem to mind! Then the
minute the air touches them, they are
lively as ever, they see and feel and
move just exactly as they did when
they went to sleep last fall" r
"Ugh!" exclaimed Florence. with a
little SILVER as she looked over to the
fence, That's interesting enough. but
I don't want frogs around my garden!"
you'd better change your mind If
you want a good garden" laughed
Bob. Frogs work in the garden as
much as we do. They eat arva-

to learn and who does everything the
right way
That suits me, Dad" agreed Bob.
I've been reading those books and
I've learned a lot already. But we'll
get the garden in first"
Such fun as it was to move to the
country! OF course this WASN'T really
truly country like on a farm. but the
house was on the edge Of a tiny village
and. so far as the children knew. that
was real country life. The furniture
went out on a great van and the fam
lily and the trunks went by train.
It was a beautiful day-birds sing
ing. spring breezes blowing. trees a
mass of bloom and such a sweet, clean
smell In the morning air. But there
was little time for looking at sights
that day, for the van arrived and then
there was the hustle and the delightful
hustle of getting settled. It's much
easier, the Darrows found, to settle
things into a house where there is a
place for everything. than to move
into a tiny fiat with a dark storefroom
way down stairs. In the new house.
there was a place for everything and

fine and not too heavy. Florence, YOU
can take the hoe and rake and after
Bob gets the ground turned, you can
help him break it up"
And she can get a basket and help
pick out the stone and rubbish
sticks or anything we find" added
Bob. His reading about gardening
had already given him some good
Ideas as to what to do.
AS soon as possible after school the
two children hurried out to the garden
lot. Bob marked off a certain space
and set to work. As soon as the
ground was turned, he and. Florence
began breaking up the clods of earth
he had turned over. Then, when that
place was all fine and smooth, he
marked off another spot and they did
that. And as they worked, of course,
they talked and planned about all the
good things to eat that were to grow
there and about what fun 1t was going
to be to pick supper off the garden.
' It'll seem like magic" Florence
said happily. II Just know"
"Oh, Bob! Look!" she cried, inter-
rupting herself with a scream Of
fright. that isn't a stone! It's a

twice visited a chum at his summer
home, but the visits were short and he
only got what might be called a small
taste of u of door life.
Then one day in the very early
spring, the children's father came
home with a surprise.
"How would you like to move out
Of the city?" he asked them at dinner.
"Out to a place where you could have
an attic and a basement and two big
porches and a yard?"
"And a chicken house with chickens
In it?" cried Bob.
"And a garden with flowers and
things to eat in it?" said Florence.
IF you were willing to help take
care of them, you could have both
chickens and a garden" agreed their
father.

glad she had stumbled.
They fastened home with thoughts
OF poor Emily and when they reached
the big house they saw lights and
heard quite a commotion.
Peggy ran past to the little house
and found 1t all lit up In she hurried
for the front door was wide open.
What's happened?" she demanded
looking around.
On the sofa sat Grandfather, every
white hair on his head standing IN bv
itself, and even his eyebrows all ruffed
up. Dad sat on the floor with Laur-
ence, while Emily was nowhere to be
seen.
"A pretty mess!" cried Grandfather.
Where have you been?"
Just Town the road a ways" re-
piled Peggy. Whats happened.
Grandfather darling? You look so

"Who wouldn't?" demanded the old
gentleman. There I was curled up in
a comforter as snug as you please and
what did the gal Emily do but sneak

my head up in a sack! That's graft
tude! Here I come just SOS you gals
wouldn't feel skeered sleeping here the

The door from the tiny dining
room burst open and Emily rushed in.
Down she fell on her knees before
angry Grandfather.
"P-please forgive mel" she sobbed.
I'VE thought you were a burglar!"
Peggy had seen the little twinkle
dancing in Grandfather's eyes the
whole time and knew he wasn't really
mad, but she too went to him and be-
gan smoothing him down, both his
hair and feelings, while he kept on
storming and scolding.
