THE OSHAWA DAILY ~IMES, WEDNESDAY, JULY 9, ih C 1930 - ' By 'or heedlessness we have to pay; 'omorrow, if 'we don't today, wjerry Muskrat, There was another signal thet the little Muskrats learned, This was the plunge, or splash signal. Jorry Muskrat would be sitting on the shore. Suddenly he would plunge into the water. Such a splash as he would make! If Mrs, Muskrat were on shore, she would plunge also. It she happened to be out in deep water, she would _ Instantly dive. All the little Muske rats would plunge or dive, Then all would be still until Jerry or Mrs. Muskrat gave the signal that all was well, So theso little Musk- " rats learned to obey signals and to warn each other, Once in a while one of the youngsters would give the plunge or the slap-tall signal; and always Jerry and Mrs, Musk- rat would dive. Usually there was no danger. Sometimes the little Mugkrat had done it just for fun. But that was quite all right, for thus they showed that they were learning. Now, in a large family of childs ren no two are exactly alike, One will be more loving than the others; one will be more obedient; one will be more head-strong; one will be more heedless; one will be quicker to act; one will be bolder; one will be far more timid, Tt was just that way in Jerry Muskrat's family, Some of those youngsters could be depended on to always do pxactly the right thing at the right time. Others catised thelr parents a great deal of worry, There was » 'ope in particular who was both heedless and headstrong, This young Muskrat liked to . think that he was smarter than his brothers and sisters. He liked to think that he knew more than they did. He liked to show off, He was always he last one to mind. Now he wag the first one to discover that a lot of the signals given by Jorry and Mrs. Muskrat were given when there was no danger at all, They were given just for ttaining. When he discovered this the young Muskrat felt very clever, hen the plunge signal or the tail- p signal was given, instead of eding it promptly, he would take his time about it, Once in a while he would not dive at all, but would chvekle to himeelt ns his brothers and sisters all dived. "They can't fool me." he would say to himself as ho heard his father and mother plunge into the water, Hooty tho Owl redched for him with his great Hawa and elutehed So this young Muskrat grew more and more heedless and care- less, There came an evening when all, the Muskrat family were out to enjoy the dusk and play about. Jorry Muskrat was at the other end of the Smiling Pool. As usual Jorry was very much on the watch fbr possible danger. So it was that was the first to discover the drifting shadow. which was not a shadow at all, but Hobty the Owl. Instantly, Jerry gave the danger signal and dived, Mrs, Muskrat re- ted the signal and dived, Bight tle Muskrats did the same thing, , But the ninth---the heedless roung" Muskrat, the one who HED ll SAREE elt Bros.

He didn't even sit still, but moved about. Suddenly a little chill feeling of fear swept over % At the same time it scemed as a shadow crossed in front of him, He loooked up into two fierce, glaring eyes, Then with a squeak of fright he started to plunge into the water, He was too late, Hooty the Owl reached for him with his great claws and' clutchéd him, That heedless young Muskrat paid for his heedlessnoss with his life, And it was all because he thought he thought himself so very smart.
