Now the majority of us would be
afraid to be all alone in the forest
land OF q strange country. but not
SO with Tinker Bob for he did not
know what fear was. He was now
ever seen, and he didn't, know what
his name was. for all he could get
out Of the fellow was a scream thai
sounded like a frightened person.
Then. too, while he was watching
this fellow there was another creature
who came up from behind. and 1t was
dark, a v for the Moon who was do
ing his best to cast light into the For
est. But Tinker was ready.
1t made little difference to Tinker
o what happened for the Seven
stones were in his possession and
whatever he asked for he received. So
when this creature came up from be-
hind Tinker thought 1t best to tap the
Stone of Knowledge and find out
where he was and who these creatures
were who would not speak. He
tapped the Stone and then something
happened.
The fellow who was going to
pounce@ upon him became helpless
and could not move, and he hap
pened to be h same kind Of a crea-
ture hat the King had bee facing.
The n who had been screaming was
silent as though he had been struck
dumb. Then Tinker spoke to them.
Il am the King of the Forest of
the Great Land of the North, and
whatever 1 do is for the best. When
l want anything L ask for it and it
comes. The creatures Of the Great
Forest know me and when they need
a friend they come to me. When
they are in trouble they come to me.
These Stones heal them of their sick
ness and when they get hurt I can
mend their bones. It will never do
FOR you to act so strangely. Tell me
who you are and why you are here"
After Tinker had made known to
them who he was, and they found
themselves helpless. the first one
spoke in a whine, II am the Noun

mountain creatures. But. o King, I
did not know you were a monarch
