SNAPPER THE TURTLE AND
MRS. SNAPPER WE'RE LIVING IN
THE SMILING POOL.
couldn't seem to make up her mind
that she had found exactly the
place she wanted Finally she was
satisfied and began to dig into the
ground backward. something after
the manner of Old Mr. Toad. She
continued to burrow backward in
this way until she was pretty we'll
covered. Then she stopped digging.
OF course, you know what Mrs.
Snapper was about. She was pre-
pairing a place for her e0es. When
at last she pulled herself out, the
earth on her back naturally slid
back and filled the hole. At the
same time it covered nearly three
dozen round, white eggs that she
had left there. Then she smoothed
the place over and started back for
the Smiling Pool. Her duty was
done, Her mind was at ease. She
| had no worries now. She would
never return to this place. If any,
| thing should happen to those eggs
she never would know it. And it,
many weeks later, lot of little
Shaping Turtles should suddenly
appear at the Smiling Pool she
wouldn't know whether they were
her children or those of some one
else and she wouldn't have any in
terest in them.
Now, it chanced that a few nights
later Jimmy Skunk took it into his
! head to visit Farmer Browns corn
field He often found white grubs
in the hills of corn and he is very
fond Of those grubs, which are very
destructive to the roots of corn and
grass. In the course of his wan
dering he came to the place where
Mrs. Snapper had buried her eggs
Now, you and I might have passed
that way and seen nothing at all to
suggest anything unusual How Jimmy
knew what had been going on there
don't pretend to know. But the
instant he reached that place his
eyes frightened and he began to
| dig. He dug up all those eggs and
ate every one. Such a feast! They
were better than white grubs.
So, while the game warden was un-
successful in trapping Mr.. and Mrs.
Snapper, all unknowingly Jimmy
Skunk took a hand in preventing
any increase In the number Of kill
ers IN the Smiling Pool.

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON W. BURGESS.

A LOT of people lose sight of this
important fact. They think that
many things they do concern no one
else, when the truth is that almost
every act Of everybody affects some
one else in some way for good or ILL.,
Snapper the Turtle and Mrs.
Snapper were living in the Smiling
Pool. They were big, ugly looking,
and spent most of their time in the
mud, lying in wait for some one to
come within reach of their swapping
Jaws.
Snapper and Mrs. Snapper didn't
spend all their time waiting for a
meal to come to them. Goodness,
no! If no fishes came their way
when they were living in wait, after
a While they would 90 hunting. and

1t was the Snappers who had caught
and eaten the baby Black Ducks,

The game warden set q couple of
special traps for them, but the
Snappers were wise and they kept
out OF those traps 1t was Just about
this time that Mrs. Snapper left the
Smiling Pool. She left it in the
night and, despite the fact that she
was q slow traveller, she was con-

Pool by the time daylight came. She
was nowhere near the Smiling Pool.
She was looking for a special kind

she could dig almost anywhere, for

to the fun
