thing, for Jimmy the Flying Squirrel
was now making his visits only at night
and leaving long before daylight So all
this watching on the part of Farmer
Browns Boy was useless. He studied
the ground all around the corncrib for
signs, but he found none. He knew
that Chatterer the Red Squirrel was
over there every morning, but he was
sure that Chatterer never did get in
side. He wished that snow would come.
You know, snow has a way of telling
stories. He was sure that II snow came
he would be able to find tracks, unless.
as he sometimes suspected, mouse or
mice might be living in the corncrib
all the time.
Then one evening it happened that he
was standing near the corncrib and
back to 1t Just about dusk. He had
paused there just for a moment. Sud-
denly he heard q light, soft thump.
He pricked UP his ears. It was a very
light thump, but 1t was a familiar
thump. He had heard that kind Of
thunp before. You know, Farmer
Browns Boy Is wise in the ways Of the
little people of the Green Forest.
THAT thump was on the roof Of the
corncrib," said Farmer Browns Boy.
Somebody landed there" He stepped
back and looked hastily, but no one was
to be seen. He hadn't really expected
that any one would be seen. There was
O twinkle In the eyes of Farmer Browns
Boy, however "That was a Flying
Squirrel or else miss my guess" said
he THAT was Jimmy the Flying Squir-
rel. He jumped from that tree. So he Is
the one who has been taking my cornl
! wonder that ! didn't think Of him
before"
OF course, this was guesswork on the
part Of Farmer Browns Boy. but Is was
very god guessing. He didn't in the
least doubt that he was right. But to
make sure, he was on the watch early
the next night. When the Black Shad-
ows first began to creep out from the
Purple Hills, Farmer Browns Boy sta
toned himself where he could watch.
Gradually the dusk grew deeper. It was
getting so dark now that it was dificult
for him to see. He had just about given
up hops when he caught sight of a
little dark spot coming down from high
up in tree near the corncrib. Almost
at once there was soft thump and he
saw little form disappear over the
edge Of the roof. He smiled happily. It
was great satisfaction to have solved
the great mystery.

the nearest tree. Therefore, it was a
great mystery how anybody could be
taking corn.
"It can't be, yet it Is" said Farmer
Browns Boy. Every day I find signs
that prove to me that corn Is being
taken. Now 1t Is few scattered grains;
now it is q bare corncob. I have set
traps, but haven't caught anybody.
Somebody is too smart for me. really
don't mind the small amount Of corn
taken, but do mind being fooled. I
don't like to think that I am not smart
enough TO ind out who is doing IT.
So Farmer Browns Boy took to visit
ing the corncrib at all hours Of the
day. OF course, he didn't learn any

It was only few days before Farmer
Browns Boy discovered that some one
was still taking corn in that corncrib.
But though he thought and thought
and thought, he couldn't imagine who
It could be. He was sure that neither
rats nor mice could climb up into the
corncrib from the ground. He was sure
that Chatterer the Red Squirrel and
Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel could
neither climb up from the ground nor
