Of food hanging heavy on the air.
This seems to penetrate to their
minds, and they will awaken and sniff
the air.
In the olden days, when lions were
plentiful, the hyenas feasted upon
these great creatures. Fasting, even
for long periods, does not trouble
them. During hunting season, when
so many creatures are wounded, a
hyena needs only to follow the trail
Of blood of some creature that is seek
ing place in which to die.
1t is claimed by many that this ami
NAL is increasing in numbers in some
OF his old haunts. However, the few
to be seen in our country are guests,
whether they like it or not. and as
they are held captive for the pur-
pose of education, the prisoner has
not lived in vain.

ETER RABBIT has wabbly
- little nose that he dearly loves
to poke into other peoples
business. That Is because he
is so full Of curiosity. He doesn't
mean to poke that wabbly littl nose
into other peoples business, and I
doubt If half the time he knows that
he is doing it. A lot OF people are
that way. You will find them every
where. They never seem to be wholly
happy unless they know what their
neighbors are doing and all about
their affairs. Like Peter, they are full
of curiosity, and because OF this they,
like Peter, are very likely to make a
lot OF trouble for others by interfering
with the plans Of the latter.
Peters curiosity had led him over
to the Smiling Pool, or rather to as
near as he could get to where the
Smiling Pool bad been. 1t had over
flowed its banks and become big
pond. On the edge of this he had
met his old friend Jerry Muskrat,
whom he had not seen since the
Smiling Pool had frozen over In the
beginning of Winter. A hungry Hawk
had seen Jerry and was just about
to seize him when Peter interfered
He saw what was about to happen
and with his stout hind feet thumped
the danger signal. Jerry plunged
headlong into the water without even
waiting to find out what the danger
might be. Act first and look after
ward is the rule that Jerry follows,
and it has saved his life many times.
Was that Hawk angry! You should
have heard him scream. Yes, sir, you
should have heard him scream. He
hadn't seen Peter until the latter had
given the alarm, and he had been so
sure of Jerry Muskrat. 1t was pro-
voking. I think you will admit that
AS Jerry vanished in the water the
Hawk checked his swift rush through
the air. He hovered over the little
tangle Of brambles, In the middle OF
which Peter was now sitting. He
screamed angrily.
"I'll get you for this! Sooner or
later I'll get you for this, Peter Rab-
bit!" he screamed.
For what?" asked Peter, trying to
sound innocent.
You know well enough what for,
you interfering good for r-nothing!" was
the angry retort.
Il guess you would find me just as
good eating at Jerry Muskrat, if only
you could catch me-" Peter taunted
You wouldn't call me good for moth
ing If you could catch me, and you
know it."
This was true. Given his choice
the Hawk would probably have pre-
ferred Peter to Jerry. He hovered
overhead a moment or two longer

Peters Interference.

Then realizing the ,selessness Of this
he flew of to try his luck elsewhere
hoping that next time there would be
no interference.

Some sixth sense seems to have told
Florence Mccartney, 20, of Edgeware,
England, that she would not live long.
1t has been revealed that in poem
she foretold her death. She wrote it

RAISED QUILTING

Here's needleWork even a be-
ginner can do and proudly show
raised quilting, called trapunto.
The design, stamped on thin
muslin, is basted to the outer
material. Then you do ordinary
quilting on the lines of the de-
sign. The parts to be raised
are padded by pushing ordinary
yarn between the two materials.
It's as easy as that! For color
variety used different colors OF
wool. Pillows, Scarfs, spreads
and many smaller accessories
can be made from this pattern.
