Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS

A neighborhood fuss is not un-
common among the feathered folks
of the Old orchard and the Green
Forest. 1t happens every now and
then during the nesting season. But
never was there such a dreadful
scene as when Redtail the Hawk and
Mrs. Redtail discovered that Hooty
the Owl and Mrs. Hooty had taken
possession of their home. OF all the
feathered people who live in the
Green Forest, the Redtails are the
biggest who fly by day. and the
Hooties are the biggest who fly by
night. Both have great claws and
hooked beaks So just as soon as
the fierce screams of Redtail and
Mrs. Redtail were heard, every
body who could get there hurried
over to watch from a safe distance
Redtail and Mrs. Redtail try to drive
Hooty and Mrs. Hooty away from
the nest.
Everybody's sympathy was with
Mr.. and Mrs. Redtail. Few of the
little feathered people or the little
people who wear fur love Redtail
Most of them feared him. But they
fear Hooty the Owl more. So every
body shouted encouragement to Red
tail and Mrs Redtail. Blacky the
Grow and Sammy Jay added their
harsh voices to the fierce screams
of Mr.. and Mrs. Redtail.
Drive the robbers out! Drive the
robbers out!" shrieked Blacky.
Kill them! Kill them" yelled
Sammy Jay. We'll help you" But
in spite of his brave words Sammy
took great care not to get too near.
Meanwhile, Redtail and Mrs. Red
tail darted at Hootv with an ugly
swish of great wings. They tried
to get him from behind, but try as
they would Hooty's big head would
simply snap around so that he was
always glaring into their eyes, and
at the last instant they would sWerve
aside Once only Redtail kept his
courage long enough to strike. and
then he left Hooty's claws filled with
brown feathers. Hooty snapped his
bill and hissed in a way that sent
cold shivers all over those who heard
him. His feathers were ruff1ed up
until it seemed as if he had grown
twice as big as usual. 1t was quite
clear that Hooty was unafraid and
that he and Mrs. Hooty had no
intention of giving up that nest
They had possession of it and in
tended to keep possession of it.
The right and wrong of the matter
didn't trouble them at all
This may have been yours once,
but it is ours now" hissed Hooty
as he struck savagelv at Mrs. Red
tail and tore a feather from one
wing.
All afternoon Redtail and Mrs.
Redtail did their best to get back
their home, and all afternoon Hooty
the Owl mounted guard and drove
them off. Then as the black shadows
began to creep into the Green
Forest fear crept into the hearts
of Mr.. and Mrs. Redtail, for in
the dark they cannot see. while
Hooty the Owl can. So in the end
they took Hooty's advice and flew
off to build another home.
