as his family turned to run; but he
soon changed 1t to loud "Quack I"

running out after them. But, luckily,
he got only few tail feathers and the
ducks swan safely home.
When Tobey Dog missed Mr.. Fox he
began to think of poor Ikey, and
away he ran for the hut by the river,
to find only the tail feathers of poor
Ikey strewu by the water side. Sad

made up his mind on the way to watch
over keys family from now on, to
make up for leaving poor Ikey to his

Mr.. Fox had caught him and carried
him off to his den. But the first ones
he saw when he reached the barn

asked, for Toby Dog looked very warm

Drake he forgot nll about Toby, only
that he was young dog and might be
fooled If necessary. He wanted Ikey
very much for a dinner some night, so
he set his wits at work to find way.
The next day Ikey went winning
on the pond and Mr.. Fox, who was
watching in the woods, strolled along
to the hut and said:
"Ah, see l have neighbor. Mr..
Dog: do not live far from here,
and you and l ought to have some fun
hunting. Do you like chasing rub

"Rubbits?" repeated Toby, his ears
sticking straight up. II love nothing

Mr.. Fox knew just where to take
Toby Dog, and 1t was not long before
he wus running through the woods
after poor Mr.. Rabbit, and Mr.. Fox,
knowing that Toby would be busy for
some time, ran back to the hut to wait
for Ikey Drake.

But it is essential that our guests be

Unless those we would welcome to
our hospitality are those we can vel

not our friendship, 1t is far better that
the latchstring be not left out for
them. We cannot be false in our
greeting without feeling II keen re-

And the same rule applies when we
go visiting. For our own happiness and
self-respect it is far better never to
visit with people at all than to realize
the welcome given us is hypocritical.
