the time being he almost forgot that
sore paw. His twinkling little eyes
took in everything over Farmer
Browns Boys shoulder. AS long as
they were in the Old Pasture things
were not particularly strange. but
when they left the Old Pasture to
cross the Green Meadows Cubbys
eyes opened very wide. All his short
life he had lived in the Green Forest
Never had he been where he could see
any distance. You see, even upon the
Old Pasture the bushes were so high
and thick that it was almost like the
Green Forest.
When Cubby saw the great open
spaces of the Green Meadows he had
a funny feeling This world didn't
look right at all. Ee was actually
afraid. You know. when thinks look
very, very strange. you often have a
queer feeling. All this was SO very
strange that Cubby kept rerfectly still
and Farmer Browns Boy had no
trouble at all.
Across the Green Meadows they
went and then up the Long Lane. AS
they drew near the house RoWser the

Farmer Browns Boy he smelled that
little Fear. He didn't stop to lick his
masters hand. No. sir. Bowser didn t
stop to lick his masters hand. He
didn't like that Bear scent and he
said so. He ran off to a few feet dis
tant. and then with his tail half way
between his legs he began to bark.
At the sound of Bowser's voice
Cubby dug his claws into Farmer
Browns Boy. He would have climbed
right up on Farmer Browns Boys
head If he could. You see, that voice
gave him great fright. Until then
he hadn't seen Bowser at all. He
didn't like the looks Of Bowser. and
he made 1t very plain. AS for Farmer
Browns Boy. he had all he could do
to hold on that little black rascal.
Go back. Rowser." he commanded.
Go back. Go lie down.
Bowser didn't want to go back. He
didn't want to go lie down. He just
wanted to tell everybody within hear
ing that he didn't at all approve of
this addition to the family. But he
wanted to do his telling at a safe dis
lance.

Browns Boy stopped and held out his
hand to Cubby.
Now. although Cubby was anxious
not to be left alone. he was still bit
doubtful of this strange creature who
had set him free and whom he had
been following. So it was quite few
minutes before he would come near
enough to even sniff at the fingers
extended to him. All the time Farmer
Browns Boy talked to him soothingly
BY and by he reached over and
tickled Cub:jy behind the ears. This
Cubby liked. So it was only few
moments before Farmer Browns Boy
