The two mother Ducks took to their
wings, for. Of course, they could ny
faster than they could swim. Billy
saw them coming. He was not ut al
distressed. Just before they got there
he shot forward, seized the little
Duckling and dived. When he came
up again he was close under the bank
and behind an old log, where he
couldn't be seen.
"He was careless" nloaned Mrs.
Wood Duck. HE was careless or he
wouldn't have been seen. I told you,
Mrs. Quack, that you were fortunate
to have only four to watch out for. I
had IL. but now I have only eight.
One was willful ano Sharpshin the
Hawk got him. One was disobedient
and a Swapping Turtle got him. One
was foolish and Longlegs the Heron

BILLY MINK SWAN FASTER.

BILLY MINK SWAN FASTER.
So when Mother Wood Duck and
Mother Quack the Mallard Duck had
sent their Ducklings into hiding the
latter had promptly frozen, as the
saying is. That is, each remained alb
solutely still They remained that
way for long time. Now. when there
are several folks together there is sure
to be at least one who is careless. 1t
was so with the little Ducklings. This
one kept still for some time. Then
as nothing happened, he grew care
less. A fiy began to buzz around his
head and bother him. OF course. he
shouldn't have moved. no matter how
much that fly bothered him. But he
lost patience. He snapped at that fly.
Now, up to that time Billy Mink
hadn't been able to see one of those
Ducklings. He had guessed that there
were Ducklings there. because he had
seen the two mothers, but look as he
would, he hadn't been able to make
out one Of those little Ducks. But
when the careless one turned his head
saw him at once. He caught the mo-
ton. He just happened to be looking
that way. So instantly Billy started
swimming faster and headed right
straight for that careless little Duck
ling. Billy made no attempt to ap-
proach quietly, for he was sure that
that little Duck couldn't get away.
The careless little Duck suddenly
discovered brown head moving
through the water toward him. He
saw two eyes that were staring at him
in a way that gave him a sudden
feeling of fright. 1t came to him that
this was an enemy. 1t came to him
that probably this was the enemy his
mother had seen when she sent them
all into hiding. He knew by the look
in those eyes that he was seen and
that it would no longer be of use to
remain perfectly still.
So with a peep of sheer fright the
Duckling began to swim frantically.
He swan out from shore and headed
toward where his mother and Mrs.
Quack were anxiously watching The
brown head with those dreadful eyes
followed him. The careless one swan
frantically, splashing along on the
surface Of the water and calling for
his mother. Billy Mink swan faster |
He could swim much faster than the |
little Duck and the distance between
them was rapidly closing. Mrs. Wood
Duck and Mrs. Quack both started
toward the swimming Duckling. They
knew there was nothing they could
do. They knew that Billy Mink could
kill either of them. Still they headed
for that frantic little swimmer. Per-
haps they thought they could confuse
Billy Mink.
Now, there is no one more at home
in the water than Billy Mink. He is

THIS name was taken from the per-
- sonal name Hugh, one which has
been popular in many nations for a
long, long time. Huges denotes "Son
OF Hugh" or kin Of Hugh" although
st literally signifies "affability, congen-
iality" Alfred the Great used the
word hugh to denote comfort.
Various examinations have been
added to the name by some branches
Of the family of Hughes, and some
prefixes are noted.
The Hughes family is one of great
antiquity and derives. its ancestry from
several of the Princes of Wales. OF
this family was Sir Richard Hughes,
who was created q baronet in 1773.
The family has produced many not
able sons and daughters in Wales,
where it originated,
In America we find the name spelled
In many different ways. We have it
spelled Hewes, and Of this family per-
haps the most notable representative
IN the history Of America was Joseph
Hewes, q signer Of the Declaration
of IndePepdence. James Hughes Of
Pennsylvania, was member Of Gen.
Mashington's bodyguard. George Rob-
sert Hughes was active in the famous
Boston Tea Party in 1773. The name
Is represented in all sections Of the
United States today by various
branches of the same family, while
many families are unrelated. Un-
doubtedly the most prominent man
in public life today bearing this name
Is Charles Evans Hughes, Chief Jus
itice Of the United States Supreme
Court, who was born In New York
STATE.
