1t was then that Peter Rabbit be-
came absent minded. He was so busy
trying to make up his mind that he
forgot everything else. There he was
right out in the open, easy for sharp,
hungry eyes to see from quite q dis
tance away because his dark coat
showed up against the white snow so
plainly. Yet, instead of hurrying his
fastest to reach shelter. Peter actual
ly stopped once or twice as he tried to
make up his mind where to go. He
had completely forgotten everything
else.
It was a bad time to be absent
minded. Yes, stree, it was bad time
to be absent minded. There were too
many hungry people out looking for
a dinner. Hooty the Owl was sitting
on the top of tall. dead tree lust
within the edge Of the Green Forest.
He could look out over the Green
Meadows, which, Of course, were not
green now, but all white. His keen
eyes discovered a little brown spot
bobbing along cover the snow. His
great yellow eyes grew fercer look
ing. That looks to me like Peter
Rabbit" muttered Hooty. He's COM
ing this way, and he doesn't seem to
be in any hurry. If he keeps on the
way he's headed now he'll furnish me
a dinner. Hello There's that sly
thief, Reddy Fox. He sees Peter,
too. If I don't watch out he'll get
that Rabbit dinner instead of me-
What's the matter with Peter Rabbit
anyway? He acts as if he didn't
think there was an enemy in the
world. Well, I can't let Rcddy Fox
catch him
With this Hooty spread his great.

was SO small that OF q necessity her
steps were very short, or only half
steps. So she called it "pulka," for
pulka is the word in her Bohemian
tongue that meant half. The craze
for this dance swept the civilized
world, much as jazz has taken posses
sion OF the cotemporary mind. At
the height of its fashion the name
was given 4 new dress goods pattern.
OF course. the word has been Angli-
fed to polka and from that date
to this a small dotted design has been
known as the pollIa-dot.
Sisters to the polka-dot are the pin
dot and the coin-spot, the former be-
ing smaller and the latter larger
Spotted effects are produced in
cloths in different ways-by employ
ing fancy threads in which spots of
contrasting color occur at intervals.
and by introducing extra warp or weft
threads which are brought into the sur
face where the spots are formed. The
simplest way is by floating the ordi-
nary weft or warp thread on the sur
face of the cloth in an order that is
in contrast with the Interlacing on
the ground. Other things being
equal. the weft usually forms
brighter and clearer spots than the
warp. This is because it is more lus-
trous on account of having less twist;
and also because the cloth generally
contracts more in length. the weft
thus being more prominently
brought TO the surface than the warp.
