DILL A4VAA ~ n ~ ". BURGESS

I heard you ask the same thing last
year"
well. that was a nice family last
year." replied Mrs. Bob. But there
are 16 this year! Just think of it
16! We have never had so many
darlingS at one time"
Again Bob's eyes tWtnkled. And we
have never had so many worries at one
time" said he.
OF course. that carefully built nest
was no longer needed. Little Bob
Whites. like little Grouse. have no use
for q nest. Once Matched they are
ready to run and leave the nest for all
time. So almost as soon as the last
little Bob White was out of the shell,
Mrs. Bob led her family off through
the grass. She wasn't sorry to leave
that nest. You might think she would
have been sorry to leave what had been
home for so many weeks, but she
wasn't. You see, she knew that Reddy
Fox and others knew that she had her
home somewhere in that particular
part of the Green Meadows. So she
wanted to get her family away from
there as soon as possible.
Now. the very first lesson these babies
had to learn was the most important
lesson that any babies can learn. 1t
was the lesson of obedience. Yes, sir,
it was the lesson of obedience. They
were taught obedience almost from the
moment they were out of the shell.
Just as soon as their fluffy little coats
we've thoroughly dried out. Mrs. Bob
led them along certain little paths that
she knew. But when she led them she
kept constant watch. turning her head
this way and turning her head that
way to see that all came along with
her The minute one dropped behind
or started to investigate something off
one side, Mrs. Bob clucked sharply. 1t
was a very low cluck, but it was plenty
loud enough for the baby ears. And you
should have seen those babies hurry to
mind Yes. indeed. you should have
seen those babies hurry to mind. They
seemed to know right from the start
that If they didn't mind. something
| dreadful was likely to happen to them
When they got tired-and. of course
tiny little legs got tired quite soon
Mrs. Bob Squatted down under some
overhanging grass and the Is little
babies Struggled against her and under
her, so that they were all cozily pro-
tected and had a chance to take little
nap as all babies should do.

Though children worry and annoy,
They give to life its greatest JOY
Mrs. Bob White.

Nowhere in all the Green Meadows
or in the Green Forest was there a
happier little family than the Bob
White family. 1t was both little fam
tly and a big family. In point OF num-
bsrs it was big family. for there we're
is babies. In the size of the babies
It. was a little family, for Bob White
babies are very small when they start
out with their mother to get acquainted
with the Great World.
Rob White was so proud of that fam
4Iv of his that he spent most of his
time whistling to express his joy. Yes.
sir that's what he did. Peter Rabbit
used to wonder when Bob found time
tn eat. Mrs. Bob was just as proud.
She was. perhaps. even more proud.
But she didn't tell the world about 1t.
In fact, Mrs. Bob took the greatest

Ruth Lester insisted
She had arrived at the murdered

was pulled out in front of Mr.. Bor-

to pass directly behind him to get
to his waStebasket, and to his OBJ
vious anger-pounding on the edge
of the drawer with his clinched fist

she looked oevr his shoulder as she
passed.
