This brown head held a good-sized fsh
in its mouth. It was the head Of Little
Joe Otter. Little Joe Otter climbed out
on the Ice close to the alder clurnp be-
hind which Reddy Fox was hiding.
Peter held his breath. Would Reddy
try to catch Little Joe? But Reddy was
too wise to try anything Of that sort.
Little Joe was altogether too big for
Reddy, and he knew It. Little Joe ts
great fighter. much better fghter
than Reddy FOX.
Peter was roind-cycd. He wondered
what would happen next. He knew
Just how Reddy must feel watching
Little Joe eat that big fish. ut must
be dreadful to watch another eat when
you are hungry" thought Peter. but
I'm glad Reddy didn't get Jerry Musk
rat. just know 1t was Jerry he was
after"
Meanwhile Little Joe Otter had bitten
out choice bit just back Of the head
OF the fish. Then he slid into the
water again. leaving the fish ON the
bank. A moment later Little Joe re-
appeared with another fish and climbed
out at the same place where he had
sat before. And what do you think
Peter did? He slipped outside that
hollow stump and suddenly he stamped
with all his might. You know. Peter
Is a great thumper when he sets out
to be. It startled everybody. Jerry
Muskrat dived into the spring hole
With A splash. Little Joe Otter dived
in without a splash. leaving his fish
behind him. Reddy Fox half rose from
his hiding place. Peter promptly dived
back into the hollow stump. Just then
Jerry Muskrat poked his head out OF
thn water to see what had frightened
him. He saw Reddy Fox. Reddy
knew then that all his scheming and
planning was to 60 for nothing But,
after ali, what he wanted was good
meal. and there 1t was right before
him--the two fish Little Joe Otter had
left. Peter watched him eat one and
carry the other away. Well" said
peter as Reddy disappeared, all is well
that ends we'll" And that, you know,
is a very true saying.

Rcddy Fox was hungry. He had spent
so much time planning to catch Jerry
Muskrat and lying in wait for him that
he hadn't paid attention to hunting for
food elsewhere, and so he was hungrier
than ever. The morning that he had
discovered Billy Mink in the spring
hole Reddy had remained quiet until
Billy had disappeared. Then Reddy had
quietly left. lie had known that Jerry
wasn't likely to appear that morning.
Now, though he didn't know 1t, Reddy
had been observed. It happened that
Tommy Tit the Chickadee was over In
the swamp that morning and he saw
Reddy get up from his hiding place
and trot away.
"Dee-dee!" said Tommy Tit. II Won

and he promptly told Peter all about
what he had seen. Peter scratched a

he scratched the other long ear with

rat" said Peter. There wouldn't be
any one for Reddy to watch around
that spring-hole but Jerry Muskrat.
Well have to keep an eye open for
Jerry and warn him."
So the next morning when Reddy
went back to his hiding place behind
the little clump of alders to wait for
Jerry Muskrat somebody was watching
him 1t was Peter Rabbit. Peter was
In a hollow stump only little way off.
He could see Reddy and he could see
