THE SUCCESS OF REDDY'S PLAN
 (By Thornton w. BurgcsS)

To have ones plans work out just
 right
 Is always cause for real delight.
 -Ecddy Fox.
 Reddy Fox and Mrs. Teddy were watching Hooty the Great Horned owl sailing back and forth above the old apple tree, in which eleven turkeys were roasting and were fast asleep. The two foxes were hiding as near that tree as they could get without being seen. They didn't want to attract the attention Of Hooty the Great Horned owl. They needn't have worried. lIooty had eyes for nothing but thosr turkeys,
 Back and forth back and forth sailed Hooty above that turkey tree. He Was looking those turkeys over. He was making up his mind which one he would choose for his dinner. The big gohhlrr Iiooty passed over. He was to big. Pres emily h" decided ou q young turkey that was roasting somewhat off by herself IIOoty flew over her once. Then he turned and came back and this time he struck and struck hard. The turkey gave one faint startled yelp-and that was all. Down to the ground she crashed and Hooty with her. She waS too hIE for him to carry away. He would have to eat his fill right there.
 For moment after they struck the ground, Uooty stood erect turn ing his head swiftly this way and that Way, looking all urouud with great glaring eyes. So swiftly did he turn his head that. had you been there, Eou would hay. said he turned it all inc way around. Of course, Hooty cannot do that. If he could do that he would be very likely 10 twist his head ojr Satis- fled that no one was watching him. Hooty prepared to enjoy that turkey dinner he had waited for so long. He didn't even think Of Rcddy Fox or Mrs. Roddy In Hooty's mind there was no room for any thought but that Of turkey.
 Hooty had just started 10 tear Off the feathers when without warning there was q sudden rush and before he could put himself on the dcfen- sive he was knocked off that turkey. Ii was R"ddy Fox who had struck him. At the same time Mrs Eoldy seized the turkey by the neck and began 10 drag 1t away. Hooty was furious. Do you wonder? How he did hiss and snap his great bill, Back he came striking al Rrddy with his wings and claws. Reddy nimbly jumped aside and Hooty nm mediately turned towards that tur- key, But the instant Hooty turned Reddy was at him again.
 It was two against one. IIooty rouidnt fight Reddy and fight Mrs. Teddy at the same time. He did the best he could. but despite all he could do. he had 10 sec that turkey dragged away Meanwhile, the tur- keys had been wakened and some Of them were craninE their neclls as they tried 10 see what was going on
