the moon was peeping over the tree
tops, off ran Tabhy Cat to the woods
toward the rock where lived Mr.. and
Mrs. Wood Rat: but just before she
reached it out from the rock came the
rats armed with an ear of corn.
Tabby was so surprised she stopped
for a second, but she wasn't afraid Of
few rats. OF course, not. So she
ran toward them. and then she saw
there were not few, but a very large
number. for she saw all the shadows
as well as the real rats, you see.
Then just as Tabby was beginning
70 think there were too many for her
TO manage, each rat threw the ear Of
corn it carried and all the shadows
did the same, of course.
Tabby Cat turned and away she ran
without once looking behind her and
she did not stop until she was safe
under the steps of the farm house
where she lived.
Such a frolic as the wood rats had
that night, for they picked up the ears
of corn as soon as they saw Tabby
running for home. and there in the
moonlight they danced and ate corn
until broad daylight.
MY dear" said Mr.. Wood Rat TO his
wife the next morning, Il never knew
how clever you were until last night.
How did you ever happen to think of
such a plan for getting rid of Tabby?"
You are really the one that made
me think about it" answered clever
Mrs. Wood Rat. You showed me my
shadow one night in the moonlight, or
l would never have thought of the
plan"

there are still more than 100000

Tuberculosis workers, encouraged by

May I also suggest that in case your

you will want large number Of

During the past four years l have

before House and Senate Commit
tees after the death of the late Sem

thor Of the State Soldiers Bonus

Bessette land clearing law. Helped
to draft and pass the new drainage

one Of the subcommittee Of three
