will if can help it."
"Why?" demanded Dipper, and his
eyes twinkled more than ever.
Because" replied Peter, II don't

Dipper.

torted Dipper.
A sudden thought struck Peter. Can
you Wake" he demanded.
Dipper chuckled. Il don't suppose
you would call it walking, said he. Il
can get along after fashion for little
way. but not for far, and it is more
running than walking. To tell you the
truth Peter, we Grebes are almost help
less on land, so we never come on land
unless it is to sit on the very edge of
the water"
II don't see why you should be so
helpless. ! don't see why you should
be any more helpless than the Ducks, F"
said Peter.
Dipper rolled half over on his back
and held up queer looking foot It
wasn't webbed like the foot of Duck,
but there were queer flaps or scallops
of skin between the toes. Look at
that foot" said Dipper. Look at that
leg! Have you ever seen shorter
one?"
Peter acknowledged that he never
had.
How could you expect any one to
walk with legs as short as mine and
way back at the very end of my body?
Those legs are meant for swimming and
not for walking. No, sir, you don't
get this bird on land if he can help it,"
said Dipper. II am a swimmer and a
diver and the water is quite good
enough for me- If there is any one
more at home on and in the water, I
don't know who it is.
II suppose you can fly" said Peter.
eff I couldn't fly, how could 1 have
come here?" demanded Dipper. 'Of
course 1 can fly. But don't do any
flying excepting to get South in Winter
and North in Summer. Give me the
water and I'll leave the land and the
air to others"
