Anyway. II not necessary. 1t Is the
part Of wisdom to do so. Having
learned to respect that seemingly
harmless young Skunk, the young Fox
began to wonder about others OF
whom he had had glimpses. He had
reached the very important decision
that 1t was best to be polite to
strangers, no matter what their size.
The next time the Bold One and
the young Skunk met the young Fox
hastened to step aside without being
asked to do so. He was polite. He
was polite in every way. Il hope"
said he, that you are finding plenty
of fat beetles. If knew where there
we're any I would take you right
there"
The rather dull little eyes Of the
young Skunk twinkled Thank you, v

self as he thought things over. II
knew enough to be afraid of people
much larger and stronger shan my
self, but 1t hadn't occurred to me
that there could be any reason to be
afraid of people smaller than myself.
That young Skunk looked perfectly
harmless. I guess that young Bobcat
that tried to catch him felt the same
way about 1t. I might have known
that any one as independent as that
young Skunk was must have good
reason for feeling that way. I still
don't understand it, but something
most unpleasant happened when that
young Bobcat tried to catch him.
don't believe he'll ever try II again,
and I'm certain sure that that young
Skunk can always have the path
whenever we meet"
After that the Bold One spent con-
siderable time watching the young
Skunk from a respectful distance
You see the Bold One had learned
that it is necessary to know all you
can find out about those with whom
you are likely to come in contact.

We may at first think the brightness
of the flower is merely for the purpose
of cheering up such places as she
chooses for her home. But the real
reason back of the color scheme is a
business one She follows the same
plan as the daisy, dogwood and others,
who pack their fiorets in close forma-
ton and flaunt gay rays to attract the
attention of customers.
1t is not long this clever flower has
to wait. For the wasps. butterflies,
bees and flies, and few beetles, come
eagerly to exchange value for value

Now you will bow low before this
plant of the brooks bitches and

ferns and flowers growing close to
their edges, appreciate them all the

we found so many intriguing things
about the brooks needing inspection.
One of the flowers that always seemed
to have a cheerful outlook on life was
the sunfower, also known to its many
friends as the pur -marigold.
It is a Snowy, golden faced flower,
about l to 212 inches across. Each Is
on a short stem. There are from to
10 rays circling a brown or yelloW1sh
disk of perfect f1orets. The regular
stem is from to 2 feet high, and the
leaves are lance-shaped with saw-tooth
edges.
Beside the brooks you many find
patches OF the bur- -marigolds, and If
there is a slight trickle of water down
the bitches, just enough to keep a

Don't you know what fear is?"
The young Skunk considered this

of. And the reason is that every one,

over him there really had been MOTH

he had learned the meaning of fear
1t wasn't foolish fear that the
young Fox had learned. 1t was the
wise kind of fear, for there are two
kinds of fear, foolish and wise. Fool
ish fear is fear without reason. Wise
fear is recognition of real danger.
You see, that young Fox in learning
fear had learned wisdom also.
