SS EE A op te PAU 0 ANE SAT yg oP o ' FIN i y 2 THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 121930 Whitefoot Investigates SCL TRL By Thornton W. Burgess He's seldom master of his fate Ro: never will investigate. i 7 ~Whitefoot the Wood Mouse. Whitefoot the Wood Mouse gave Peter Rabbit the 'slip. It wasn't dif- ficult to do, Whitefoot is such a little fellow and can move so quickly that he can slip into 4 hiding place 'without being seen, almost while you are looking at him. When Peter discovered that Whitefoot. had dis- appeared, he grumbled a little and then went off to look for Chatterer the Red Squirrel, to find out if Chat- terer had discovered | Whitefoot's home yet. i Nao sooner had Peter disappeared than Whitefoot slipped over where he could look up at the big wasps' test in' which his own nest had been Built' and which tad se Jong been his sceret home, Courage was com- irg back to him now, He looked hastily in 'all directions to make, sure that mo sharp eyes were watching him. Then he quickly climbed that bush. When he came to the place where Farmer Brown's Boy had tied the branch holding the nest to an- other branch; he stopped to examine the' string. Tt bore the man-smell anid that made him a little uneasy. But now that he was s6 near the entrance to that nest, he just couldn't turn back. In half a minute he was inside. Everything seemed all right. + He went all over that nest of his. every particle of it. Nothing had been disturbed, Just around the en- trance. he caught just a faint whiff of that man-smell. That was where Farmer Brown's Boy had poked his finger in through the doorway, Qtherwise, nothing was wrong. This man-smell was very faint, Whitefoot poked his head ott the doorway and peered down. He couldn't under- stand matters at all, He couldn't un- derstand how that 1est was back where 'it 'had 'been after it had been eut down. Finally, he gave up try- ing to understand. " "Perhaps things are all right after all" said he to himself. "Perhaps Tafity "Browi's' Boy didn't know I Was Yelng Here when hecut down this neste. J guess I'll stay here a while and see what happens. Farmer Brown's Boy is the only one who has found out vet where I live and some~ how: I have a. feeling that he won't bothér me, What 1 need now is a good nap. I'm all tired out, I sup- pose it is the fright I haye had. Never did I have a worse fright." j PHONE 22 "For Your Drug Needs THOMPSON'S x Siiicoe St, 5. -- We Deliver ite . y Thousands Now Bat A Dealigiitful Breakfast Food hi R oe Machine TOO ams : NOTHING TOO SMALL | AdunachachineShop 161 King St. W.

So Whitefoot curled up in his bed and. in no time at all he was fast asleep, Meanwhile, Peter Rabbit had found Chatterer the Red Squirrel and had speedily discovered that Chatterer was no wiser than he was, so far as Whitefoot's home was con- cerned, "1 tell you," said Chatterer, 'Ldon't believe it is around here. Whitefoot is smart, but he never has been and he never will be smart enough to fool me." "You've got a good opinion of yourself, haven't you?" said Sammy Jay, who came up just then. Chatterer turned his back to Sam- my and pretended not to hear him. Peter thoughtfully scratched a long ear with a long hindfoot. "I saw Whitefoot just a few minutes ago," said he, "and I still can't believe that his home can be very far away. You know as well as I do that Whitefoo! never is found very far from home' (Copyright, 1930, T.

' For the sake of scientific methods, Prof, Brownell's students in the socialogy department agreed to back up his recommendations. They in- dicated that if the university refused to supply easy chairs, they would furnish their own cushions, *"Homelike surroundings are favor able to an efficient absorption of knowledge." said Prof, Brownell. "I would like to take the backache' out of education with a few morris chairs upholstered window seats and plenty of cushions, " NEW MEANING GIVEN.
