* THE OSHAWA DAILY. TIMES; THURSDAY; MAY 13, 1930 By Thornton W. Burgess Appearances sometimes deceive, ,, ., And things are not as you believe. ~Blaring the Ehrew, Peter Rabbit was Leing ealled names, He was being called names mn avery thin squrzaky voices But Peter wasn't at all disturbed, Ie simply looked down at the little fel- low who was calling him names and grinned, It was Blarina the Shrew who was scolding. in u very fine squeaky voice, You sce, Peter had almaest stepped on Blarinia and Blar- ing was telling Peter just what he thought about it "I'm sey, Blarina," "Truly, 1 am, | didn't al" "What's that got 10 do with it?" squeaked Blarina, "1 didn't see you, but | know where all shout you," "Honestly, don't you all?" demanded Petey "No, | don't," squeaked "But 1 hear you and | smell you and that is cnough for me." Peter shook his head, "It seems to me," said he, "that it must be dread ful not to have better eyes than you Moles have" ' "Moles! Moles!" exclaimed Blarina, "What have Moles got to do with it?" Peter, you at said see you are and [144 me at "Well, you kind of Mole aren't you?" said Peter, ' At this Blarina flew into a great rage. He has a very peppery temp. er and it takes almost nothing at afl to put him in a rage. "Who says I am a sort of Mole?" he squeaked angrily, "Who says that?" "Oh, a lot of people," replied Pet er. "I have heard vou called a Mole many «times, Yon certainly look enough like one to be one, You must at least be a cousin of Mince the Mole Blarina . fairly danced with anger "I'd have you understand that I am not a Mole, nor am | related to the Moles, 1 am a Shrew, Peter Rab- bit, and proud. of,it. | am a Shrew, anda Shrew is no more a Mole than # Mouse is. lt is a wonder that you "don't think T am a Mouse." "Well, you are rather mouse-like," retorted Peter, chuckling. "You are sort of haliway between a Mouse and a Mole, and it wouldn't have sur. prised me any to learn that you were related to both families," "Well, I'm not," retorted Blarina "The Mole family and the Shrew family both belong to the order of in sect caters: while the Mguse family belongs to the order of gnawing ani mals, and that a very different 2 matter," Peter thought this over for a few minutes, "Well," said he, "I've learn ed something, Still, if you and Miner the Mole belong to the same order it seems to me that you are related" "Huh!" exclaimed Blapma.
