former president of the West Oakley Mothers club.
 She had to show some independ- ence before she could convince the school authorities in her city that she knew how to dress her daughter, but she did it. It all came about this way: Mrs. Hohmann's daughter, Helen. who is Il years old appeared one day recently in the fifth grade room of the West Oakley school with her knees bare. She was wearing socks.
 West Oakley teachers decided some time ago that girls in their classes were not to dress that way, so Helen was sent home to be properly cloth ed. That put her mother on the war path. She took Helen by the hand socks and all, and led her back to the school. The principal was away so she went direct to school head quarters, found the superintendent and declared herself well able as the average school teacher to- decide how her little girl should dress After the superintendent had look ed at Helen he decided rule against

As he ran he saw be- hind him a fierce, grinning face. It was very much like the face of Reddy Fox, only alrger and fiercer and gray instead of red
 Never in all his life had Peter run as he was running now It seemed as if these great lopg legs of his hardly touched the ground But. oh, dear, the briar patch was such a long way off Peter knew that he was running for his life. He didn't dare try any eff the tricks with which he had so often fooled Reddy Fox. for he didn't know anything about this terrible stranger behind him and he might not be fooled by tricks
 Peter began to breathe hard. Ii seemed to him that he could feel the hot breath of the fierce stranger And right down inside Peter somehow felt sure that this was the owner Of the
