WHITEFooT TAKES TO \ TREE
I'd rather be frightened
 With no cause for fear, Than fearful of n0thlnE
By THORNTON V. suRSEss

I'd rather be frightened
 With no cause for fear,
 Than fearful of nothlnE
 When danger Is nenr.
 -Mhifef0Ot the N cod Mouse
 Whitefoot the Wood Mouse kept on going and going. Every time he thought that he was so tired that he must stop. ne would thRk ot Shadow the Weasel and theH go or again By and by he became so tired that not even the thought of shadow the Weasel could make hip go much further. So he began 10 look about for safe hiding place In which to rest.
 Now Whitefoot's home, which he had left because of fear of Shadow the Weasel, had been a snug little room beneath the roots of a certain old stump. There he had lived for long time in the greatest comfort. Little tunnels led to his storehouse and up to the surface of the snow. It had been a special place and one in which he had felt perfectly safe until Shadow the Weasel had ap- peared. Had you seen him playing about there you would have thought him one of the little people of tho ground like his cousin Danny Meadow MouSe.
 But whitefoot is quite as much as home in trees as on the ground. In fact, he s quite as much at home in trees as Chatterer the Red Squirrel and a lot more at home in trees than is Striped Ghlpmunk, although Striped Chipmunk belongs to the Squirrel family. So now that he must find hiding place Whitefoot decided that he would feel much safer in tree than on the ground.
 'Tf I could only find a hollow tree" whimpered Whitefoot q will feel ever so much safer in a tree than hiding in or near the ground in a strange place.,
 So Whitefoot began to look for a dead &ree. You see he knew that there would be more likely to be q hollow in dead tree than in living tree. By and by he came to a tall. dead tree. He knew 1t was dead tree because there was no bark on it. But of course he couldn't tell whether or not that tree was hollow. l mean he couldn't tell from the ground.
 "Oh dear" he whimpered again. "Oh dear. l suppose I will have to climb this and I am so tired. It ought to be hollow. There ought to be splendid holes in it. It is just the kind of tree that Drummer the Wood becker likes to make his house in. I shall be terribly disappointed if don't find one of his houses some where in it, but l wish I hadn't got
