At that moment Knarf and Hanid came running up to find out Where the General was going. "Hunting, my dears," replied General Tin. "T'm going hunting." "Hunting what?" asked Han- id, "Sniffers and snuffers," said General Tin. "They're birds. They have three legs and they wear spectacles. But they're very hard to catch on account of they can sniff anybody coming from a long distance off. And when they sniff anybody coming, they instantly snuff themselves out. Like a can- dle," he added. Sniffers and Snuffers Knarf and Hanid said they would like to go along and help catch the sniffers and snuffers. And Teddy the Stuffed Bear, who heard the talking at the door, came bumbling up in great ex- citement and said did anybody mind if he went along, too? Nobody minded, although Gen- eral Tin thought Teddy always made a great deal too much noise when he walked to make the very best kind of hunter. So off they set, ome behind the other, Teddy was left with a bag of peanuts with General Tin treading softly in front, and turning around every few minutes to put his finger across his lips and say "hist!" "What?" asked Teddy, who was last, in a loud voice. "Hist means be quiet," explained in a whisper. "Oh!" said Teddy. And he tried from then on to walk tip-toe Hanid which didn't help much because | He saw a strange sight. he was always ' tripping over twigs and stones and falling flat on his face. They had come to the edge of a thick woods, and General Tin had said Hist! for the tenth time, and Teddy had just fallen flat on his face again. "All right, leave him there!" General Tin said looking at Ted- dy with a scowl. "The sniffers and snuffers live in this forest, We'll never catch them with all this noise." "I'm sorry," sald poor Teddy. "I won't mae any more noise, I promise. T'll crawl on my hands and knees," "Please let Teddy come," said Hanid. Knarf begged General Tin too, for Teddy's sake. But it did no good. Teddy was left sitting on a bit of moss under a large tree, and given a bag of peanuts to eat in case he got hungry. | The Cookee Column BOOK TWO Patsy's Kid Fudgee By HERBERT C. MERRY CHAPTER 1 I Want To Be Alone The sun was up early that morning. The jolly old chap came up out of Lake Ontario and sent his lovely warm rays up the Six- teen Mile Creek, lighting the crannies and crevices that night had darkened. Another day had started. The Basket factory whis tle would soon hoot out ii ing call, telling the early birds to finish their breakfast and hus- tle to work. Patsy was up before the sun. She hadn't slept well. She wasn't up because she specially liked to get up early. Although she really is an early riser, she just wasn't feeling well and decided maybe if she took a stroll around the gar- den, or went and sat under the little spruce trees by the fish ond, she might feel better. She mumbled to herself as she walk- ed very carefully down the ver: andah steps and ambled very slowly along the garden path. We got to the rustic bridge over the miniature river, she stopped and looked through the pine rungs. "T guess Tl have a drink of water." She mumbled in her very deep voice. "It can't hurt me--It probably won't help me any but, shucks and kidney jelly, 1 must try something to make me feel better." a trickle of water which overflowed from the fish pond up in the Sumach grove and ran over the picturesque little water fall and so on down to the duck in the lowest part of the den: Patsy drank from the cool little stream, then went and found a comfortable spot in the moist, cool earth, under a dwarf spruce tree by the fish pond. pond gar- An hour later I found her there when I came out to the rose gar- den to give the roses an early morning drink before the heat of the day became too intense. Come along Pats!" I called to her as I went by. "Come along and help me water the roses, Are you spending all morning hidden away among the trees?" "Well maybe I will. Yes, no, yes, no--don't know!" She pract- ically growled at me. "Cuttle fish and stuffed horsef can't a body be left alone to rest quietly for a while, specially when the body feels unwell?" With this she turned her back me and stretched out full length In the shady, cool spot. I got the hose and turned the water on. For a few minutes 1 said no more. I thought unless she felt very badly, she'd be out soon to watch the spray and gaze in on of Page 5 wonder as she always did, at the little drops of water on the green leaves of the rose bushes, reflect- ing the early rays of sunshine, It didn't seem long before I heard a slight rustle below me and IT heard her mumbling to herself.

"If only T weren't so big and clumsy," he sighed, "General Tin would have fet me go with them and I would have seen the sniffers and snuffers. But now I'll never see them, not ever . . ." Teddy finally felt a nap com- ing on, and after eating a pea- nut or two with a loud crackling and crunching, he curled up and went to sleep. He was suddenly awakened by the noise of birds all around him. He opened his eyes. Chatter and hopping up and down on their legs were a whole flock of sniffers and snuf begging for peanuts.
