Soon he would settle his big round fat body comfofrtably into the blue hills behind Pene- tanguishene and send his last beautiful rays of colour out over Georgian Bay to be lost in the Giant's Tomb on the far horizon One very diligent honey bee was buzzing out a good night seren- ade in the "Flower of Obedience" plants by the kitchen door. The birds in the cedar trees were twittering pleasant little noth- ings as they made ready to roost for the night. Here and there, on the beach, the odd cottager who had stayed on to enjoy the fall season on Georgian Shore, was strolling leisurely by the wa- ters edge or sitting peacefully on a rock watching the beauties of the sunset. Peace reigned supreme in the puppy pen. Four fat puppies were curled into *a mufflike ball on the precious old sweater coat in the corner. But not so Fudgee. She sat bolt upright by the em- pty food dishes muttering over and over to herself. "Something must be done--oh yes, something really MUST be done." Her meeting, that she'd held only a few hours before, had -not been a success. Not one of them would volunteer. to go to "the powers that be" and ask for more food. Fudgee was greatly puzzled. Her overactive little brain was working overtime, trying to think up a plan. She was trying to fig- ure out how she could either get one of her fat sisters or her fat- ter brothers to go voluntarily or else how she could trick one of them into going. Two dishes of food had been brought at supper time, and put down on what had once been the grassy floor of the pen. Fudgee, Beulla and Binker had been prod- ded towards one dish and the two brothers Mickee Finn and Comfee Junction, had shared the other. Of course, as usual, the girls had finished first and had immediately tackled the boys to try to get some of theirs. After the ensuing fight was over and every scrap of food was devoured all except Fudgee had settled down to a very comfortable sleep. Fudgee was too worried to sleep. Something must be done. Quick as a wink her little brain thought up a plan. She was sit- ting by the knothole when she saw Aunt Athol coming from the Pioneer toward the pup pen. Quicker still she shot into ac- tion: In. three movements she nipped the tail, ear and snout of Beula, Comfee and Mickee Finn. They were awake in a flash to see who had dared to disturb their peaceful slumbers. Fudgee scooted as fast as she could run for the large cardboard box in the corner, which served as a sleeping box. The three disturbed sleepers scooted aftfer her in in- dignation. Just as Aunt Athol looked over the edge of the pen, the last of the chasers entered the box. Sleeping quietly and un- disturbed Binker Hoodwink was left alone on the old sweater. Just as Fudgee had planned it, Aunt Athol leaned over and pick- ed up the lone sleeping pup. "Well, the poor itty bitty baby," said Aunt Athol. "Was she left all by herself?" And she fondly stroked the little dog and ave her ears a friendly pull. At this moment, Fudgee was The Cookee Column in the three outraged puppies. To make matters worse, she bit each one in turn as they crawled through the hole in the box, and then, es- caped out the hole into the mid- dle of the pen. That was all that sleeping box with the was needed to start a great chemozzle. Out they poured like hornets from a nest, and in an instant there was a biting, squealing, seething mass of canine warriors. In her excitement to stop it, our friend Athol did exactly what Fudgee hoped she would do. She put Binker down on the grass on the outside of the pen and lean- ed over to stop the pup-slaught- er which was taking place. "Here you wild creatures!" she yelled over the din of .the battle. "Stop it this very in- stant, before you kill that poor little Fudgee." She sent them flying to sandy right and muddy left, and Fudgee, taking advant- age of the help that was given, scuttled to the wall and screech- ed through the knot-hole at Bink- er. "You're free--you're free--you silly pup! Run to the kitchen door as fast as you can go-- quick! Quick before you're caught!" She was so excited that Binker hardly knew what she was saying to her, but nevertheless, she started for the kitchen door. "Call for Dribbi!" yelled Fud- gee. "Squeal for her and tell her our plight! Ask for FOOD-- FOOD. . . . !!!" panted Fudgee, as Comfee Junction landed on her to do battle once more. Binker scuttled to the kitchen and her sharp little claws scrat- ched a nervous little tattoo on the screen door. Dribbi did hear her and came to see what was hap- pening. Looking down, she saw Binker's sad little face peering at her through the screen. "Well, well," she said, what have we here?" "I'm Binker," she said in a lit- tle wee voice. "I represent Pat- sy's Kids Incorporated. Please-- could we have more food?" That night, when darkness fell over Owlscroft, five happy pup- pies slept soundly. Their fat lit- tle tummies were extended by the extra meal which was served to them as the jolly old sun slip- ped away to sleep. Patsy's kid, Fudgee, dreamed a happy little dream about plates and plates and plates of kibble all covered with nice warm gravy. "and Christopher Cricket Saw A LINE OF KNIVES MARCHING TO A BANQUET "Strange , things happen at night," Christopher Cricket said. Knarf and Hanid, the Shadow- names, asked Christopher to ex- plain what he meant. "Well," he said, sitting him- self down comfortably on a peb- ble, "I was sitting under a daisy last night, singing a song to my- self when all of a sudden the door to the house where the children lived opened up by it- self. The next minute all of the knives and forks and spoons came marching out." "What!" cried Knarf and Han- id in astonishment. "I was surprised, too," said Christopher. "But I didn't say a word. I just got up and marched after them." "Where did they go, pher?" asked Hanid. At the End "They marched all the way to town," replied Christopher, "one behind the other, with a big soup spoon" at the head of the line and a tiny little baby spoon at the Christo- All the knives, forks and spoons. came marching out. end, doing its best to keep up with the rest of them. None of them spoke a word to each other but they all made a tinkling noise as they bobbed up and down. "They marched all through the town," Christopher went on. "And from every street came spoons--big ones, little ones, fancy ones, plain ones. I wes de- termined to follow them and see where they went. Suddenly they stopped in front of a small res- taurant!" > "A restaurant, Christopher?" said Hanid. Christopher nodded. "It was as 1 think I fold you--it was var, late at night. Then the big soup spoon knocked on the door ver, loduly. "No one is there," 1 po. member saying to myself.

"And then the most remark. able thing of all happened. From out of the kitchen came all the plates and platters and dishes and cups and saucers. All were laden with food. Some were fil heaped with roast meat and roast, fowl; some of the dishes were carrying fruit, or cakes, or puddings. There were butter dishes and jelly dishes. There were glasses of milk and steam ing cups of tea. "And, oh!" said Christopher, "you should have seen how the knives and forks and spoons feasted; for years and years they had done nothing but feed others ner all their own! But probably," Christopher said, suddenly paus- ing, "you don't believe that any of this could really have happen ed? But it did--I saw it all with dark inside the restaurant, for-- my own eyes!"
