public.
Almost daily Gus hears a recital of

when Danny and Nanny Meadow
Mouse were over by the man-bird to
see what treat had been left for them
this time. They were thinking so
much of their stomachs that they
didn't think Of anything else. They
had grown careless. Yes, sir, they
had grown careless, which is some
thing the little people of the Green
Meadows cannot afford to do. They
found the treat they had hoped to
find. and really expected to find, and
at once began stuffing themselves.
Now, Reddy Fox knew all about
that -bird-that is to say, he
knew that 1t was machine made by
man. He was suspicious Of 1t, as he
is always suspicious of new things
With his usual caution he had studied
Ii from a distance. But at last he had
made up his mind that as long as it
remained motionless and noiseless on
the Green Meadows it was harmless
On this particular night he had de<
clded that he would go over to it

Our Birds in Verse
BY Henry Oldys
CANYON WREN.

Hail. peaceful spirit OF the rocky gate!
Remote refined, serene. deliberate!
Whene er I hear thy clear, sweet accents flow.
Unhurriedy and steadily. though
Eternity itself before thee lies.
! listen with ever-neW surprise
That in this word of travail there should be
Such restful. soul-refreshng melody,
Thy voice alone, such power within it lies
Makes desert solitude paradise.
What turned thy life from burdens and alarms
Made thee acquainted with retirements charms
Taught thee to find, apart from all the throng,
Companionship in tn echo of thy song?
No social ardor, tinctured with unrest
And rivalry, finds lodgment in thy breast;
A holy hermit, in simplicity,
Hymning thy prayer, thou dost elect to be.
Teach thy mood that whereso er stray
Thy notes will linger in my heart alway.
