Mother Bear. =
Every day for a week Mother Bear
and the cubs, Boxer and Woof Woof,
came out from their home under the
great windfall deep In the Green
Forest and prowled about. Each day
they went little further. Their feet
were not as tender as at first. On
the first two days. after their long
winter sleep they were not hungry.
They didn't once think OF eating. But
now they grew hungrier every day
Already they had begun to lose the
fat they had stored up under their
black coats before going to sleeb at
the beginning OF winter.
There was little enough to eat at
best. 1t Is always 80 In the spring
way. but it is a sad time for many
In another way. You see, at no time
In all the year Is food so hard to
find as early in the spring. The more
they roamed about the hungrier
Mother Bear and aBoxer and Woof
young willow twigs. They hunted for
mice. But never did one Of them
get a stomachful at one time.
Early one evening they happened
to go over near Farmer Browns
sugar house. Farmer Brown and his
boy were not yet through making
sugar, although the sap had stopped
running. They had on hand a lot
Of sirup to be boiled down into
sugar. Mother Bear suddenly sat up
and shifted long and hard. At oncej
Boxer and Woof Woof did the same
thing. Their eyes began to sparkle.
The wandering Little Night Breezes
were tickling their noses with q most
smell. 1t wasn't like the
smell Of honey. yet somehow it made
them think Of II. Their tongues hung
out and their mouths watered.
oh" whispered Woof Woof. Did
you ever smell anything so good In
all your life?"
Mother Bear growled. 1t was a low.
deep. grumbly. rumbly growl way
down in her throat; It was
oSeyed Thex r. xeen Knew sub Better than eo
when Mother Bear srowled
like that. But their eyes danced with
excitement, and how they did hope
that Mother Bear would lead them
straight to the place from which came
that delicious smell.
After q few minutes Mother Bear
moved ahead slowly and carefully.
taking care not to snap a single little
twfg under her great feet Doing just
az she did, Boxer and Woof Woof fol-
lowed. The further they went the
stronger grew that delicious smell
Finally Mother Bear stopped again

and stood up to her full height. OF
course, Boxer and ,Woof Woof did
the same thing. Straight ahead Of
them was q queer dark mass with q
couple Of little squares Of light in itf
OF course you know what 1t was. 1t
was Farmer Browns sugar house in
the Black Shadows and the squares
OF light were two little windows.
From 1t was coming that delicious
smell. It was the smell Of the boil-
ing sirup. .-. :,
For a long time the three Bears
stood there looking and listening and
smelling. Strange noises came from
that sugar house. It was all very
interesting and very curious. Boxer
and Woof Woof wanted to go straight
over there and find out what it was
that smelled so good. But Mother
Bear didn't move, and they knew bet
ter than to move until she did. All
the time she kept carefully testing
the air with her wonderful nose.
Presently the hair along her back
began to rise. She drew back her
lips. showing her great teeth. Then
without q sound she turned and hur-
ried away. OF course Boxer and
Woof Woof followed, though they
were bitterly disappointed and
couldn't understand 1t at all. Not
until they were at q safe distance did
Mother Bear tell them that in with
that delicious smell she had found
the man smell.

Every effort is being made by
Morris Hacker. superintendent Of
street cleaning and city refuse. to
catch up on the collection of ashes
and garbage. which fell behind last
week following the snowstorm. Mr..
Hacker predicted that by this evening
his men would be up up to date in the
collection of garbage and that the accu-
mulated ashes Of last week would be all
taken care of by Thursday evening.
'Of course" said Mr.. Hacker. I'VE
did practically nothing toward the
collection of ashes and garbage on
Monday and Tuesday of last week.
But it could hardly be expected, that
our teams could navigate through the
deep snow Of side streets and alleys
in a storm which tied up street cars
BY working teams all day yester-
day, however. Mr.. Hacker brought the
collection of garbage for the week
up to 1000 tons. which is close to the
average weekly collection of from
1900 to 1,400 tons.
Collection of ashes was resumed
Thursday and the ash situation. Mr..
