the number would be incredible
in its proportions. Going further

Danny Meadow Mouse kept sing
ing this foolish little song over and
over, until 1t got on the nerves Of
his cousin, Nibbler the House Mouse
You remember that Danny and
Nanny Meadow Mouse had spent
the winter in Farmer Browns barn.
1t had been quite the most COM
Portable winter they ever had
known.
There's only one thing wrong
with it here" said Danny to his
cousin Nibbler, who, you know, is
very timid.
What is that?" asked Nibbler.
Life isn't exciting enough"
Not exciting enough" squeaked
Nibbler. my goodness. Cousin
Danny, I don't know what you call
exciting. Indeed I don't. With
Black Pussy spending half her
time out here. life is altogether too
exciting to be comfortable to me"
Danny turned up his nose. BLACK
Pussy is the only one We have to
watch out for, and any one with
half an eye can keep out Of her
way. If you think she's dangerous,
you ought to be hunted awhile by
Reddy Fox and Old Man Coyote
and Redtail the Hawk and Hooty

who know how to hunt. Yes, stree!
It's play to keep out OF the way
of Black Pussy, compared with keep

the Crow takes 1t into his head to
hunt me once in awhile, and never
know when Billy Mink may grow
tired of fish and think he wants
a Meadow Mouse dinner. Digger
the Badger Is another clever hunt
er. Then there is Mr.. Blacksnake.
If you haven't been chased by Mr..
Blacksnake, you don't know what
excitement Is, Nibbler."
Nibbler hastened to say that he
didn't want to know. There were
dangers enough for him right there
in Farmer Browns barn. The Green
Meadows must be terrible place
to live, with all those dreadful
people about. For his part, he was
wholly satisfied to remain right
where he was, and he hoped that
Danny didn't have any foolish
thoughts of going back to the Green
Meadows.
Danny sat up and stroked his
whiskers thoughtfully, while
shrewd twinkle crept into his eyes.
Cousin Nibbler," said he. II am
not only thinking Of going back
to the Green Meadows, but I'm
going. I'm going to start right
away, and Nanny is going with me.

Take My Word for 1t

Fetch and Cary


Several readers have admitted
being confused about the words
fetch. carry, bring, take An
American sergeant in Northern
Ireland writes: Il am not sure OF
the word bring Is it permissible
to say, John, bring this book to the
library'?"
Bring implies to carry with one
self. usually in the direction of the
person speaking, as: John bring me
the book that is there beside you on
the table.
After John has brought the book
one might say: Now take the book
to the library" for take" implies
carry away with oneself"
AS John departs. he may be told !:
ALSO, carry COR take) this package
to the express Office for carry"
means ito bear and transport to an
other place, usually from here" to
there"
When John returns, and we wish
to send him on another errand, we
may say, Fetch me the afternoon
paper" for fetch" means go and
bring it to me here" Such a COM
mand from their mother caused
Jack and Jill to 60 up the celebrated
hill to fetch" the equally celebrated
pail of water
In the South especially. carry" is
often used in the meaning of ito
escort" A youth will carry" his
best girl to a dance: one tells a
friend, III come by and carry you
to church" But such usage is dia-
lectal and had best be avoided.
Likewise, tote" tcarry) should
not be used In serious speech OF

crops this coming year. 1t will be

grown primarily for Its bulb. but the
leaves may be used for seasonings
