Happy Jack and Chatterer Were Still
QuarreIing.
der why she did these things when it
was so much easier just to do moth
ing at all or to romp and play.
But even playing becomes tiresome.
especially when nobody will play with
you. And now that the busy autumn
had come there was no one to play
with. Everybody was too busy to
play. So it came about that the Merry
Little Breezes because they could
think of nothing else to do, offered
to help Striped Chipmunk. of whom
they were very fond. They offered
to shake down nuts from the trees
that he might more easily fill his secret
storehouse. You know Striped Chip
munk is not much Of climber. He
can climb if he has to, but he never
feels at home in the trees and never
likes to get far above the ground. So
for his winter stores he depends on
what he can find on the ground, and
let me tell you there are no brighter
eyes than those of Striped Chipmunk
when it comes to finding nuts and
seeds hidden under brown leaves.
But there are others quite as eager
as Striped Chipmunk TO find nuts for
secret storehsuses, especially his cous-
ms, Happy Jack Squirrel and Chat
terer the Red Squirrel, and because
they are bigger and stronger and very,
very selfish. they often chase Striped
Chipmunk away. So is it any wonder
that when the Merry Little Breezes
offered to shake down the brown nuts
for him, Striped Chipmunk chased his
tail for pure happiness?
Happy Jack and Chatterer were still
quarreling and their voices sounded
harsh and angry as the Merry Little
Breezes danced along ahead of Striped
Chipmunk to tree some distance
from where Happy Jack and Chatterer
were calling each other names and
worse than wasting the golden min
utes of that beautiful day. Striped
.Chipmunk looked up and his eyes
sparkled. The night before Jack
Frost had opened the prickly bnrrs
and Striped Chipmunk could see the
brown nuts ready to drop. The Merry
Little Breezes shook a branch and
down ratified the brown nuts. Striped
Chlpmunk squealed with Joy and
stuffed the pockets of his cheeks until
the Merry Little Breezes shouted with
laughter because he looked so funny.
Then he scampered away to his secret
storehouse Back he came and did
1t all over again. As soon as he had
picked up the last nut the Merry Little
Breezes shook another branch and
down showered more brown nuts, roll
ing under the brown leaves on the
ground. It was great fun. It seemed
