pected it was so. but he wasn't sure.
So the first thing was to make sure.
II that hunter wasn't after him he
would be worrying for nothing. If
that hunter was after him, he
wanted to know it in order to de-
eide what it was best to do.
Now. Lightfoot the Deer had been
hunted before. He had been hunted
many times. He hadn't been hunted
this fall. but every other fall since
| he could remember he had to run
from hunters with terrible guns, and
he had learned much about them.
So now he knew just what to do in
order to find out what he wanted to
know. OF course, he couldn't wait
for the hunter to come in sight be-
hind him, because then the hunter
might see him, and Lightfoot knew
that that terrible gun could hurt
even when far away. His nose
could not tell him because the wind
was blowing from him to the hunter
and not from the hunter to him,
and so, of course, brought him no
oilleA' 11Io edlS HllSilV llelp MN,
but he knew that that hunter was
moving so carefully that he would
make no noise if he could help it.
No, he could not depend on his
ears alone.
1t was then that Lightfoot showed
how cunning he can be when there
is need. Straight away he ran,
taking no pains to hide his tracks.
Then he made a wide turn and
headed straight back in the direc-
ton he had just come from, only
some little distance from the tracks

he had made when going the other
way. Halfway back to the place
where he had started, Lightfoot lay
down behind the bushy, thick top
of fallen hemlock tree. From there
he could see the little open place
through which he had run a little
while before. On this he kept his
eyes fixed. If the hunter really was
following him, he would have to
pass across that open place.
1t was very still in the Green
Forest, save for the gentle rustic of
falling leaves, 1t was very beautiful
there. 1t didn't seem possible that
danger for any one could be lurking
IN such beautiful place But it
was. Lightfoot had not been long
in his hiding place when his watch
full eyes saw something moving
among the trees. In a moment
hunter stepped out in that open
place his eyes fixed on the ground
and in his hand a terrible gun.
Lightfoot had found out what he
wanted to know That hunter was
following MIN, ne was following his
tracks. Lightfoot waited until the
hunter had passed from sight. Then.
without making a sound, he got to
his feet and stole swiftly away. He
knew what to do. He must get
somewhere where the ground was
hard and his tracks would not show.
Then it would be an easy matter to
get away from that hunter.
THE trouble Is" thought Light
foot, "in getting away from that
hunter I may run right into an
other. If it were only one hunter
l wouldn't mind. 1t wouldn't be so
unfair. But the Green Forest is,
or soon will be. full of them. Then
what can poor deer do but trust
to luck? And luck is a pretty poor
thing to trust to-"

Savage Blows

LONDON, June 10 - up -
The current summer will find
the Eighth United States Air
Force in England carrying its
full share of the bomber often
sive against Germany with null
tiple daylight raids, Major Gen.
Ira c. Eaker, its commander,
disclosed today.
Eaker told a press conference
that the American heavy bomb
er force had doubled in size
since March and would approx
mate the RATS bomber strength
by the end of the summer.
Reporting that the u. S. AAF
in Britain increased from Is to
80 per cent monthly and has
doubled since March, the gen.
eral said The size of the pres
ent force will be doubled be-
tween now and October"
He said the American Flying
Fortresses and Liberators would
continue their precision raiding
in daylight with relatively small
individual forces rather than
adopting the British mass raid
ing technique by night or day.
Eaker's disclosure followed a
statement from reliable source
here that unit of Flying For
tresses had been assigned to un-
dertake night bombing expert
ments from Britain with the
Raj.
FORCES GROW
Meanwhile, Eaker said, Amer
lean fighter and medium bomber
forces in England also are grow
ing rapidly and will be ready to
play full part in supporting
Allied troops in an invasion of
Europe.
American bomber losses for
May were under four per cent,
Eaker said. During the month
more than 1000 heavy bombers
raided the continent, including
those that went twice or more,
and dropped $500 tons of bombs
on 10 targets. Sixty-two Of the
big planes were lost, but they
shot down $50 enemy craft and
probably destroyed 80 more.
