The Little Wood Mice Learn
Fear.

Who'd live the longest, 1t is clear.
Must learn and then must master fear.
-WhitefoOt the Wood Mouse.


Whitefoot the Wood Mouse knew
that the safety of his children de-
pended on their being afraid, and so
he deliberately started to teach them
fear. He began by telling them Of
the enemies they must watch out for.
family. then about Blacky the Crow,
then about Buster Bear. After that
he told them Of Billy Mink and Vow
ler the Bob Cat and the most ter
rible enemy of all, Shadow the
Weasel: and the next worst enemy,
Hooty the Owl. He told them Of the
Coyote. BY the time he was through
it seemed to the four little Wood
Mice that if all Whitefoot had told
them was true everybody in the
Great World must be an enemy. One
of them said as much. Whitefoot
laughed.
NO" said he. ut isn't as bad as
that. Most of the birds and some of
the animals are our friends. but there
are enemies enough, goodness knows,
and it takes a watchful Mouse to
keep out of their clutches. Never
forget for one single instant to be
on the watch. When things seem
safest, watch out sharpest. No one in
all the Great World has more dangers
about him than a Wood Mouse. He
must be afraid all the time
The four little Mice listened re-
spectfully and promised that they
would be watchful. But Whitefoot
knew that despite all he had said they
did not yet know fear. SO he led
them forth in the early evening and
| put them in a safe hiding place from
| which they could watch him but
themselves be unseen. Now said
| he, remember that whatever hap
! pens you are not to move so much as
a toe. Watch me, but make no
| sound"
| The four little Mice promised that
| they would do exactly as Whitefoot
! had told them. No matter what hap
pened they wouldn't move so much
as a toe. nor would they make the

far away was one of the watch towers
Of Hooty the Owl and that early
every evening he sat there watching
and listening. Whitefoot didn't have
long to wait The terrible hunting
cry of Hooty rang through the Green
Forest. 1t was a terrible sound to
hear. The four little Wood Mice in
their hiding place shivered: Without
knowing why, they were frightened.
That deradful sound had made them
feel jumpy all over.
The instant Whitefoot heard it he
darted through some dried leaves,
making them rustic. Now, just back
of and hidden by these leaves was a
little hole in the ground. Into this

They could see terrible claws ready to

yellow eyes with a hungry look in
them that was awful to see.
Right then and there the four little

father had said. So they kept per
fectly still, though they shivered
clear to the tips of their slender
little tails. 1t was the most awful
feeling they had ever known.
1t was for only a moment that they
saw Hooty the Owl. Then as silently
as black shadow he disappered
Almost at once Whitefoot came ou,
