Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS

To rsk yopr f gnlsss theTss need
Never forget that. Never do such
crazy thing as Peter Rabbit was
doing. What was wrong? Why, he
was running the risk of being caught
by Reddy Fox all for the sake of a
joke. Did you ever hear OF anything
more foolish? Yet Peter was no
different from a lot Of people who
every day risk their lives in the
most careless and needless ways Just
to save a few minutes OF time or
for some other equally foolish rea-
son. The fact Is, Peter didn't stop
to think what dreadful thing might
happen If his plans didn't work out
as he intended. He didn't once
think of little Mrs. Peter over in
the dear Old Brier Patch and how
she would feel II he never came
home again. That's the trouble with
thoughtlessness: it never takes 9TH
ers into account.
All the time that Reddy Fox was
creeping alone behind the old stone
wall on the edge of the Old Orchard,
Peter knew just where he was,
though Reddy didn't know that. If
he had known it he would have
suspected one of Peters tricks. You
see. Peter had quarreled with Sam
my Jay just to get Sammy to
screaming so that Reddy would come
up from the Green Meadows to see
what was going on, and he knew
perfectly we'll that Reddy would
steal along behind the old wall so
as to see what was going on.
He'll peep over that wall and
just as soon as he sees me he will
feel sure that this time he will catch
me-" thought Peter. He will steal
along to that place where the wall
is lowest and will Jump over it right
there. I must be ready to jump
the very second he does"
1t all happened just as Peter had
expected. While seeming to be pay
ing no attention to anything but
to Sammy Jay, he kept his eyes on
that low place in the old wall and
presently he saw Reddys sharp nose
as Reddy peeped over to make sure
that he was still there. The instant
that sharp nose dropped out of
sight Peter made ready to run for
his life. A second later Reddy
leaped over the wall and Peter was
of as hard as he could go, with
Reddy almost at his heels. Sammy

ARKANSAS KINGB1RD
(TyrdnnuS rerttcdliS)

The Arkansas kingbird is one of
the most interestir. and courage
ous personalities of the western
bird world. Like his cousins, he
shuns procrastination He is not
afflicted with timidity. shyness or
self -effacement. The moment you
enter his domain, you are fully
warned that you are an intruder.
Not that he makes you unwelcome,
but he has little use for poachers,
and for all he knows, you are just
that.
However, he has had just cause
to be suspicious; his enemies are
many. What with the owls. hawks,
crows and other natural enemies,
he finds he must be on the alert
all the time. And he does not stop
at scolding or threatening; he
alights on the back of his feath-
cred foe and can do considerable
damage with his beak and claws,
This kingbird has wide dis
tribution through the west. His
length is about 9 inches. From a
short distance, he appears to be a
bird clad in gray and yellow. Close
up, the crown and hindneck are
q plain gray. The crown has
large concealed patch of orange
red which is underlaid behind and
laterally by mixture of yellow
and white. When the crown
feathers are raised, this patch
shows plainly. The back and
shoulders and upper rump are pale
yelowish-o olive. blending into
darker gray. The upper coverts and
tail are black; all the feathers are
margined in white. The under
parts are canary yellow; the eyes
are brown, and the bill is black.
You can see the kingbird is a
handsomely clad fellow.
For a long time this kingbird,
as well as his cousins, have been
accused of eating nectar-laden bees.
For this activity he has been called

harmful beetles, as far as we are
concerned.
His spouse builds her nest in
trees and bushes S to so feet from
the ground. If there is fence
post handy, or the corner of a
nearby house, this site will answer
her needs nicely. She has a rea-
son, no doubt, for combining a
great variety of building materials.
An inspection of these reveal that
she has used twigs, leaves, bark.
wool, cocoons, string, hair, paper,
rags and down.
Usually, there are four creamy
white eggs. They are boldly marked
with burnt lumber and lavender at
the large end. The male is a gal
liant defender of the home, rather
noisy and pompous, but perfectly
satisfactory husband to Madam
Kingbird.
When the babies are demanding
food, he is right on the Job day
and night to help fill them up.
But there is no record that he
assists in his ofsprings' education.

Reddy at all forgot all about his
quarrel with Peter.
Go it. Peter! Go IT," he
screamed.
Peter did go 1t. He had to. He
ran with all his might. Reddy
grinned as he saw Peter start to-
ward the Green Meadows. 1t was
a long way to the dear Old Brier
Patch and Reddy didn't have any
doubt at all that he would catch
Peter before he got there. He
watched sharply for Peter to dodge
and try to get back to the old stone
wall. He didn't mean to let Peter
do that. But Peter didn't even try.
He ran straight for the edge of the
hill above the Green Meadows. Then
for the first time Reddy noticed an
old barrel lying On its side.
II wonder if he thinks he can
hide in that" thought Reddy and
grinned again, for he remembered
that he had passed that old barrel
few days before and that one end
was open while the other end was
closed. IF he tries that will get
him without the trouble OF much
of chase" thought Reddy and
chuckled. Lipperty- -lipperty-lip. ran
Peter, hpperty -lipperty-lip. Reddy
right at his heels. To Sammy Jay
it looked As If a few more jumps
Reddy would certainly catch Peter.
GO it, Peter! Oh, go It'll" screamed
Sammy, for in spite of his quarrels
with Peter he didn't want to see him
come to any real harm.
just as he reached the old barrel
Reddy was so close to him that
Peter was almost sure that he could
feel Reddy's breath. Then Peter
made splendid flying jump right
over the old barrel and kept on
down hill, lipperty -lipperty-hp as
fast as ever he could, straight for

it he turned to see what was hap

screaming of Sammy Jay and by

happening. In fact. he suspected
that the joke which he planned was
working out just as he had hoped.
