LITTLE BEDTIME STORY
Jerry Muskrat's Great Idea
by THoRMroM W. BURG Ess

Jerry Muskra
A friendly friend is a friend indeed.
when he proves friend in the time of
need.
Mr. and Mrs. Quack had been so
much taken up with each other and
with their troubles that they had quite
forgotten that they were not alone in
the, Smiling Pool. So it happened that
when Mrs. Quack had suggested that il
Mr.. Quack's wing got strong enough
they might be able TO find a lonesome
pond not too-far away where they could
make their home for the summer, they
were a little startled to hear a voice
say, Il know where there is one. and
you will not have to fly to get to it,"
and jumped little. You see their
nerves had been very much upset for a
long time. and the least unexpected
thing made them jump. Then both
laughed.
Hello, Jerry Muskrat! We'd forgot
ten all about you," said Mrs. Quack.
What was that you said?"
Jerry good naturally repeated what
he had said. Mrs. Quaek's face
frightened. do you really mean it?"
she asked eagerly. DO you really mean
that you know of a pond where we
could live and not be likely to be seen
by these two-legged creatures called
menu
That's what said,' replied Jerry
briefly.
"Oh. Jerry, you're not joking, are
you? Tell me you're not joking" beg
ged Mrs. Quack.
