GO ON WITH THE STORY

IO On WITH THE STORY
There, in the gloom of her berth,
with the train speeding past small
villages and stretches OF open coun-
try, Kate Ward went over THAT one
day which stood out beyond all others.
She remembered every nuance of
her mothers voice as the words came
from the doorway--"What, you
back?" Whisperingly she repeated
them.
She hadn't been much past IS then,
developed little thing for that
age with almost too much of the
woman about her. There was too
much of an air Of knowing, something
tragic in the droop of her shoulders.
All through the years that followed
when she saw girls SO young with
that air of knowing and that pitiful
droop, she wanted to run after them
and take them home somewhere to a
mother who wouldn't say:
"What-yon back?"
Kate had brushed past her mother
that day and had gone to the little
room under the caves. There, among
the things she had known in those
glad days before she had measured
her strength against city, she cried.
Perhaps, If her mother had gone
then to the room under the caves,
everything in Kate Wards life would
have been different. But her mother
had cucumbers to put up, the kitchen
to sweep and neighbors to gossip with.
So 1s-year-old Kate flung down on

That's my jumper"
"Stop!" beloved Otto Otter, who
for once was fast losing his temper
Don't you run off with Jimmy Rab-
bits jumper. We're having fun with
it."
But Peter Mink only moved the
faster. He hurried on towards the
river, with Otto Otter and Jimmy
Rabbit following him and shouting.
Drop that" and stop that"
Peter Mink never looked back once.
AS soon as he reached the top of the
river bank he sat down on the jumper
and started to coast down the steep
slope. II
When Jimmy and Otto Otter peeped
over the edge of the bank at him he
was going fast. He was leaning for
ward. holding tightly to the seat with
both his fore paws.
Then something happened. The
single runner of the jumper struck a
stone which jutted up through the
snow. The scat broke off; and Peter
Mink went sailing through the air.
When he came down he fell
upon the ice on the river and slid
along it, trying hard to stop himself
by digging his claws into its CLASSY
surface.
He stopped at last. He stopped
when he came to crack and fell |
into the cold, cold water.
Jimmy Rabbit didn't dare laugh.
He was afraid of Peter Mink. But |
Otto Otter wasn't afraid of his cousin.
He laughed and howled and rolled |
over and over upon the snow.
He was very good-natured about |
the accident.
