ness out of the joints Of those little
Bears. After they had had nice sun
bath Cubby proposed that they take
walk His sister protested that she
didn't want to take a walk. Neverthe-
less she tagged along after Cubby.
Cubby still was not hungry, but he was
feeling a whole lot more like his mis-
chievous self and everything he saw in
tereSted him, They had gone only a
little way when they met Prickly Porky.
1t was an unexpected meeting. IT is
a question which was the most startled
--Prickly Porky or the two little Bears.
With little startled SnortS. the twins
jumped back Prickly Porky raised the
thousand little spears sidden In his
coat and poking his head under log
which happened to be close by he
ratified those thousand little spears and
switched his tail back and forth.
Cubby couldn't keep his eyes off that
tail. He knew about Prickly Porky.
Mother Bear had taught him to leave
Prickly Porky alone. But you will re-
member that it was long time since
Cubby had seen any of his neighbors
in the Green Forest, and so 1t was not
surprising that some of the lessons he
had learned were not as fresh in his
IiitlO dS ttICS IIiIEH( iidFC bSCLis
Cubby wanted to catch that tail. 1t
seemed as If 1t was being switched back
and forth Just TO tease him. BY and
by Prickly Porky stopped switching his
tail That tail remained perfectly, still.
Cubby wondered If it would go again
il he should touch it, Very gingerly he
reached out until the claw on his
longest toe gently pricked the end of
PricklV porkv'S tail
Something happened then. 1t wasn't
exactly what Cubby had expected would
happen. 1t wasn't Just what his sister
had expected would happen. Instead
of that tail Just switching back and
forth. it suddenly ran right at them.
At least, that is the way 1t looked.
You see. Prickly Porky suddenly ran
backward. 1t was such a surprising
move that. before Cubby realized what
was happening. that tail was brought
around with a sudden slap that caught
Cubby on the back Of one paw. Things
happened fast then. Cubby yelled. He
turned back Somersault His twin
sister was just behind him, and. of
course, she was in the way Cubby
bumped into her and because that paw
of his Smarted so, he lost his temper
and cuffed his sister And then she
lost her temper. And when two little
Bears lose their tempers, you know
what happens.

spirit of adventure which is in all the
