BEDTIME STORIES y : r sSssas,

| short-winded. Dodge as she would, she
| couldn't get where she could start for
| that hole in a straight line. Presently
she began to grow fearful. She had to,
| she Just had to get somewhere pretty
quick. The dear Old Briar-patch was
| too far away Reddv would get her
long before she could reach 1t. The
only other place of safety was the
hramble-tangle on the edge of the Old
Pasture. That was nearer, but 1t was
too far away. 1t seemed as II there were
nothing for her but that hole of one
of Johnny Chuck's children. And all
the time Reddy Fox managed to keep
between it and her.
"Oh dear!" sobbed Little Mrs. Peter
under her breath, what shall I do?
Whatever shah I do? My legs are get
ting tired. My wind is giving out. Reddy
almost caught me that last time
lodged. Here he comes nowl And /
simply can't run away from him. All
I can do is dodge"
She did dodge. She lodged as only

her breath. Il stepped into hole that
time-I'm sure of it. 1t was right over
in that little clump Of grass. I'll have
look there"
She managed to once more dodge so
as TO bring her close to that little clump
of grass. She gave 1t hasty glance
as she passed. That grass was growing
around the entrance to a hole. There
was no doubt about 1t. The only Ques-
ton was whether that hole went far
enough into the ground.
II shall have to take the chance"
said Little Mrs. Peter "I just must get
somewhere. If that hole isn't deep
enough to be safe, may just as well
be caught there as out here on the
Green Meadows. I'll try that hole the
first chance get"
So Little Mrs. Peter lodged two or
three times more and then finding the
way clear she made straight for that
little clump Of grass She dived into
1t head first. Sure enough there was
an opening inside. 1t wasn't very big,
but it was big enough for her to 60
through. To her joy she discovered that
il led down into the ground II KNOW"
she exclaimed to herself. This is the
back entrance to the home of that
young Chuck. I'm safe now"
As for Reddy Fox, he looked abso-
lutely foolish, and he felt Just as fool
ish as he looked. He hadn't known
anything about that hole.
And SO Little Mrs. Peter had escaped
from almost between his very teeth"

and sisters stuck to this story

animation but the jury called DR.
