NIGHT LETTER FROM PAULA

 However, I want 10 express 10 you, Mir. Whitney, that I will not mind the fatigue in any way If l have contributed to the cause Of crippled children in any way,
 The saddest thing in my life has been that my work las plotted TO- mantle love from my heart and con- sequently child was not for me.
 Will you let me send you my check for ten thousand dollars? And, because I do not think my ap- p"arance on Saturday afternoon at the auditorium would be worth that much 10 you. I am congratulating myself that the hospital is making money hr my staying away.
 Again ] want to thank you for allowing mo 10 bo some help to you in your great philanthropy. and be- live mo I nm always ready 10 help in any way I can.

rim; so sh" supposed he was still in the top of the tree.
 By and by she saw something moving on the farther side of the y0ung orchard. At first it seemed nothing more than moving shadow Eut Nanny long ago learned 10 be
 suspicious of moving shadows. She knew that they were likely to have claws or braks, or both. She kept her eyes fixed on this moving shadow and presently her heart gave a little jump. It wasn't shadow she was watching. No, sir, 1t wasn't { a shadow she was watching. Who do you think it was? Well, if was some one who has big tail and is very proud of it. It was Reddy Fox. Yes sir, that is who it was-Reddy Fox.
 If Nanny had been frightened when she had discovered that ,Ipooky the Screcch Owl was in the tree above her she was doubly Frightened ow. Reddy was run ming back and forth this way and that way, and she knew just by watching him that he was hunting for Meadow Mice. He was drawing ,uearcr and nearer. What should she .Io? Shc didn't know. So she did nothing. That is a very good plan when you don't know what to do.
 Nearer, nearer, nearer came Teddy. Poor Nanny Meadow Mouse! if she ran Rcddy would see her and

It was Ionlv a question of whether she would rather be a 4t" for Reddy Fox or a dinner for little Spooky j,he Scrccch Owl. Of course she Ididn't want 10 be either.
 With cycs popping out Of her Tread or at least looking as if they would pop out of her head, Nanny watched Reddy come until he was
