would be just like Peter to tell some
one else without meaning to, and
then it might get back to Shadow
the Weasel.
"I'm not going to tell you now,
Peter Rabbit" said he. 'You see
I don't want anybody to know where
it is until am sure that it will do.
But I'll tell you this much" he add
ed, as he saw how disappointed Pc
ter looked. I'm going to live right
here"
Peter frightened up right away.

Chatterer meant that he had found
hole in the old stone wall, and he
felt very sure that he could find it
by keeping watch. That's good,"
he said again. ''I'n see you often.

claws are very sharp. Now think
I'll be going back to the Old Briar

You know you always get some

enough.
When he did get there he found
Peter Rabbit sitting on Johnny
Chuck's doorstep staring down john
ny Chuck's long hall. They're
asleep" said he, as Chatterer came
up all out of breath.
Peter shook his head in a puzzled
way and continued to stare down
the long, empty hall. Of course he
was talking about Johnny and Pol
ly Chuck, who had gone to sleep
for the winter. That sleeping bust
ness always puzzles Peter. It seems
to him like terrible waste of time.
But Chatterer had too much on his
mind to waste time wondering how
other people could sleep all winter.
He couldn't himself, and now that
he had been driven away from his
own home in the Green Forest by
fear of Shadow the Weasel he
couldn't waste minute. He must
find a new home and then spend
every minute Of day time laying
up a new store of food for the
days when everything would be COW
cred with snow. He shivered at
the thought.
Up and down the length Of the
stone wall he scanpered looking
for a place to make home, but
nothing suited him. You know he
likes best to make his home in a
tree. He isn't like Striped Chip
munk, who lives in the ground. Poor
Chatterer! He just couldn't see how
he was going to live in the old stone
wall. He sat on top of big stone
to rest and think it over. He was
discouraged Life didn't seem worth
living just then. He felt as if his
heart had gone way down to his
toes. Just then his eyes saw some
thing that made his heart come up
again with great bound right where
it ought to be. Just then Peter Rab-
bit came hopping along.
Have you found new home

Eyes" replied Chatterer, II think
I have"
That's good" replied Peter. 81

here. Where is it,"
Chatterer opened his mouth to tell
Peter, and then closed it with a
snap He remembered just in time

MOTORISTS URGED
TO BE CAUTIOUS
Chief Casteen Calls Atten-
ton To Law Dealing
With School Buses

A request for all motorists to be
unusually cautious on the city
streets, county roads and state
highways when school opens, was
made Saturday by Chief of Police
Charles H. Casteen.
Chief Casteen called particular
attention to the provision made in
the Laws of the 1943 General As
sembly in connection with the pro-
lection of children.
The amended section is as fol
lows: That every person using,
operating, or driving motor We
hicle upon or over the roads or
highways of the state of North
Carolina. or upon or over any of
the streets of any of the incorpor-
ated towns and cities of North
Carolina, upon approaching from
any direction on the same high
way any school bus transporting
school children to or from school,
while such bus is stopped and en-
gagged in receiving or discharging
passengers therefrom upon the
roads or highways of the state or
upon any Of the streets OF any of
the incorporated towns and cities
of the state, shall bring such no
tor vehicle to full stop before
passing or attempting to pass such
bus and shall remain stopped un-
til said passengers are received or
discharged at that place and until
the stop signal' of such bus has
been Withdrawn or until such bus
has moved on.
Under the old law, Chief Casteen
pointed out, it was permissible
to pass on by the bus once the
driver had stopped the vehicle. out
under the new law, the vehicle
must remain stopped until the
school bus has moved on.

yXIASfIINGTCN, d. C.-In de-
~ scribing one Of the big air
battles over Guadalcanal a recent
newspaper account tells of an Amer
lean flyer who parachuted from his
crippled plane to the waters Of
.Lunga Bay. The Navy craft which
picked him up next went to the res
cue Of Japanese pilot seen strug-
Cling in the water nearby. AS the
rescue boat reached the japanese
flyer he suddenly pulled out his re-
volver, aimed it at the drenched
American pilot and pulled the trig-
ger. The cartridge failed to explode.
Then the Japanese officer turned the
gun on himself with suicidal intent.
Again he pulled the trigger and
again his revolver failed him. At
this point an American sailor
knocked him out with boat hook
and pulled him aboard the Ameri-
can craft prisoner.
Almost daily one reads eye-wit-
ness stories such as this one, and all
OF them clearly demonstrate that
war with our enemy in the Pacific
cannot end in compromise.
For ten years ! lived in Japan.
The truth as ! know it from close
observation is this: Nothing less
than the exertion of our maximum
capacities, individually and collec-
lively, in war of offense will bring
our beloved country safely to the
longed-for haven Of victorious peace.
