stopped 10 listen for danger.

The bunny rabbit gentleman look

and saw a small Fox boy, with a

stick the Fox boy was breaking the
flowers and leaves from the rose

she could on it," his mother inter

down there and find out what really

May L inquire" Dicky asked
mockingly looking at me. what you
and mother have decided about my
reservation? You have evidently de-
sided for yourself. What did you
plan for sonny to do?'
1 knew it! 1 told myself grimly.
No matter what 1 had decided con-

would have found something to
wound his vanity in the arrange

II would not have presumed so
far. Perhaps you remember that
YOU absolutely refused to get up and
see the man, SO there was but one
thing for me TO do. I decided my
own course, and I told him that you
would come down TO see him as soon

Dicky stared frankly. Then, un-
