KUNTY HAS A GREAT FRIGHT When things look bad it well may be Because tke truth you do not see. ~=0ld Mother Nature. Runty, the smallest and the smartest of Unc' Billy Possum's twelve children, believed that his eyes had been given to him to use and he did use them. ot course, all his brothers and sis- ters used their eyes, They would nave been queer little folk if they had not. But they didn't use theirs in quite the same way Runty did his. They used theirs to look at all the new things that they ran across every day, and to hunt for good things to eat. Runty used his the same way, but also he used them to watch his fatter and mother and take note of all they did and how they did it. That was wherein he was smarter than the others. Runty had formed the habit of following Unc' Billy about wherever he went, At first it bothered Unc' Billy, but after a while he rather liked it. Some- times it would happen that the twn would roam quite a distance from the others and thus Runty had many a tidbit which he did not have to share with the oth- ers It happened that early one ev- ening before it was really dark, that they were thus off by them- seives. Runty had climbed a lit- tle way up in a small tree while "ne Billy was poking about be- low, Without any warning there was a rush of feet and what iooked to Runty like a black and white monster with wicked-look- ing teeth made a rush at Unc' Billy. Of course it wasn't a monster at all. It was simply Flip the Terrier.

That rush was so sudden that Une' Billy didn't have time to run or to climb a tree. He was so taken by surprise that he didn't have time to move before Flip was on him with open mouth and seized Unc' Billy by the back of the neck. Now Unc' Billy's skin is loose and Flip had him only by the skin.. He gave Unc' Billy a tremendous shake and threw him to one side. Une' Billy fell limp and apperently lifeless on his left side so that he was facing Runty up in the trce. Flip sprang forward and stood over him, ready to shake him again if he moved. Unc' Billy didn't move. More than once Flip had shaken a Rat to death in just that way. But Une' Billy was so much bigger tnum the biggest rat that Flip bad ever killed that he was surprised and showed it. He hadn't expected it was going to be so easy, Flip backed away a few steps and looked at Unc' Billy suspi- ciously, Then he walked all wround him, all the time look- ing at him. 'There wasn't so much as the twitch of an ear or the motion of an eye-lid, "Dead," thought Flip. "Dead, end I killed him with one shake. 1 wculdn't have thought it could be done. No, sir, if anyone had told me I could do it 1 wouldn't have believed it. I thought that rellow would fight, but he didn't. [ guess IT wag too quick for him. fle didn't soc much as show his teeth and he has some good ones." As Unc' Billy lay there his mcuth was open and his lips were drawn back, so that his sharp teeth showed plainly. His long fur was badly rumpled. He was a forlorn looking Possum. . Flip wa'ked over to him and sniffed him all over. He even poked his nose in one of Unc' Billy's ears. It must have tickled, but if it did, Unc' Billy made no sign. That ear didn't twitch the least bit. Flip lost interest and presently trotted away, All this Runty saw, Never did a more frightened little Possum live He was so badly frighten- ed that had he not been holding on tightly to a twig by his fun- ny little tail he might have. fal- len. He hadn't dreamed that such a terrible thing could hap- pen. But it had and there lay his father without a sign of life. Never had he felt so small and leipless. He didn't even know where his mother and brothers and sisters were. He was just a very small person svddenly left p.one in the Great World. * Do' yon wonder that he was fright- ened?

He would add, 'In pub- lic,' T suppose, but I do not see any need for an amendment, to my statement," added Mrs, Hen- ry, amid much laughter. "Our women have had a great deal to do with making Ontario the wonderful Province it 1s," stated Mrs. Henry, who stressed the need for community service, and paid tribute to what women of the Institutes are doing in the matter of public service, espec- 'ally in meeting the present un- employment emergency. Mrs Fred Haggan replied to Mrs. Henry's toast to the Women's Institutes. 4 On behalf "of the Government of Ontarfo, Colonel the Hon Thomas L. Kennedy, Minister of Agriculture, who presided, ex- nressed great pleasure and Lon- or in having as guests of the Gov- ernment the party of farm girls, "representing the very essential young life of the Province," and to the women of the Institutes, he said that 'the Government looked forward to another year of help and co-operation from the rural people, wh have the sane noint of view." Mrs. H, M. Dier lam of Ripley, Ont., proposed the toast to Ontario, 'the fairest Province on God's green earth' whose myriad advantages she de- veloned with eloquence: "The nineteenth century will stand out in world history as the dawn of the woman's era--which movement found its fullest-devel- opment in the twentieth century," declared Hon, George H, Chal- liss, Provincial Secretary and Re- gistrar for Ontario, who propos- ed the toast to 'The Farm Girls' Party."
