heart was suddenly warm toward my kindly neighbor, even as l wondered what my mother-in-law reaction would be. She was too skilled at plant-raising herself to be mistaken as to the number of blossoms upon Mrs. Ticer's laden plant. But wouli she deceive herself as l knew she yearned to do, with our Eeighbors s plausible fib and accept if without further comment?
 For a long instant she hesitated, her eyes upon the plant with it's ex- quisitc nodding bells of color Then she struck one hand imperiously against the other, and all at once I know that her sterling honesty hal conquered her vanity.
 Key to The LarcheS Gone!
 You don't deserve to have 2 plant like this" she told Mrs Ticer, If you haven't gumption enough to count the blossoms. Here, Margaret you come and help me, and do you count, too, Mrs. Ticer. This has more blossoms than mine, am sure. Indeed, I never in all my life saw one that had more. We'll three Of us count them twice and then we'll compare notes.'
 w counted silently, with faces as intent as though we were settling the question of separations. Then at my mothcr-in-l laws signal we spoke.
 "Fifty-three, Mrs. Ticer said stubbornly.
 You mean sixty-three," my mother-in-law said Isn't that what you made, Margaret?"
 "Yes, siXty-threc," I agreed.
 Well, I certainly congratulate you on your success. But that's a wonderfully sunny window you have there. There's q tree outside mine that takes a lot of sun away" She had been regal in her ac- acknowledgement, but I saw that she | had reached the limit of her graci- ousncss, for in reality she was greatly chagrined at Mrs. Ticer's tri- umph. l struck in placatingly.
 That tree is bad there, mother, I know. I've often thought of get ting rid of it. But l really think VIZ ought not to delay any longer in starting for The Larches.'
 I'm ready now" my neighbor said, putting on her hat and catch ing up her coat as she spoke, and in another minute we were out of the house and climbing ;ato the car.
 But We had only just gone through the gate when my neighbor 1 cried out in chagrin.
 Well, if I aint fine one." she said. "Ive come off without the key. Don't turn the Car. l can run back for it in a jeffv.'

Bob White, who was with his fam fly over on the Green Meadows, near the edge of Farmer Browns corn field, heard Sammy Jay screaming over in the Green Forest. He flew up on a fence post, that he might see better and hear better.
 There is trouble of some sort over in the Green Forest" thought Bob. That is Sammy Jaws danger cry. I have heard it too many times not to recognize it. Sammy sees dan ger of some sort and is warning the other people of the Green Forest Sammy Jay is q good fellow when it comes to time of danger. I won der what it all means.
