A Meadow Mouse is supposed "to live on the ground, or somctimes mit. But there are exceptions. Just , as Whitefoot" the Wood Mouse oc~ casionally builds over a a bird's nest and makes it his home, so does Dan- ny. Meadow. Mouse, It isn't a habit. Oh, my: nod It happens only once Jina great while, Of cours my and Nafiny would never have thought of building a in that can. up in a frec had it not been for two or three things. Nanny. would never have thought of climbing up to that tin can. You see, she was in the can when it was put up thére by Farmer Brown's Boy. Probably she wouldn't have thought of going back to it had it: not Heen for Reddy Fox. She and Danny had to go somewhere and being strang- ers in. that particular. place, they knew. of nowhere to go until Nan- ny thought of "that 'tin can, Then, when they got there they decided it wotlld"make a lovely, home. You see, what with a grapevine and the shape of the tree, it was a very easy mat- ter for 'them to climb up. "It's wonderful," said Danny, "and no one knows that we are living here." Te "You forget Reddy Fox," said Nan ny. "If it were not for Reddy, we wouldn't be here." ; "That's $0," said Danny. "I did for- get Reddy, I notice he comes over here quite often, Never in all'my life have I Yelt so safe from Reddy Fox, excepting when we were living in Farmer Brown's barn. No one fan J get at us up here. Even Killy the : Sparrow Hawk can't get us here, All "we have to do is to run right jn- © side and we are safe." A i "You forget Shadow the Weasel," . Nanny reminded him. a "True," replied Danny, "I did for- get. Shadow. Shadow could climb up J here just as well as we can and he ' could enter this little round doorway. But he is the only one; and cven if i he should come over this way, he would never think of finding us up a tree, There isn't any one else." . But Danny was mistaken, He ¢ found out that very day, Nanny was off somewhere looking for food. Dan- ny was just about fo climb irp te his hothe in the tin can when he heard a rustling sound above his head. He fooked up. What he saw almost made his. heart stop beating. It was. Mr. Blacksnake, Yes, sir, it was Mr, 4 Blacksnake. He was up in that tree. Bou know Mr. Blacksnake is a very ? good climber. Truth to tell, Mr, Black § snake was looking for nests. He has . 7a liking for baby birds, At first. Dan- "ny was simply surprised and fright. ened by the sight of Mr, Blacksnake. "Then he was glad that Mr, Black- ' snake was up in the tree instead of \ {For Your Drug Needs THOMPSON'S 120 Simcoe Bt. 8, we We Deliver A Re iti g NOTHING 700 SMALL Adanac Machine Shop 161 King St, W, Phone 1314 mF" 7 4 i / of HEADY « And then to Danny's horror Mr. Blacksnake put his head inside on the ground. He didn't once think that Mr. Blacksnake might visit that tin ean, Slowly Mr, Blacksnake moved up toward Danny's home. At last he reached it. And then, to Danny's hor. ror, Mr. Blacksnake put his head in- side. He went part-way in, Danny couldn't remember whether or not Nanny was at home, If she was, he would never: sée her again, Here was an enemy who could enter that house with the greatest gase and Dan ny hadn't once thought of him, "Oh, dear! oh dear!" whimpered Danny under his breath, "What shal I do now?" "What shall you do about what?" asked a squeaky voice, "What is the matter with you, Danny Meadow Mouse ?" It was Nanny! She was on her way home, Perhaps you can guess how Danny felt, / NLA (Copyright, 1930, T. W. Burgess) The next story: "Mr. Blacksnake Is Driven Away." ea YS ARS SRDARARELR Cam aa aan a) C.
