ked. "it was Hooty the OWL"

"Didn't; some one else mow 1'1 there later?" asked one of the two little gossipers. . .

"Yes," re-plied his companion. ”In fact. there have been two or three families."

"And something has happened to each one?" asked the other in B. questioning tone,

"Right." was the repl.V- "me same thing has l"tappen9d to each one."

"Horny the Owl?" questioned the other.

"Just so." was the squeaky re- ply. "Somehow or other Hooty the Owl has been bad luck for who- ever has tried living in that old house. I wouldn't want to live there myself. No, sir, I wouldn't want to live there. If it were the beat house in all the Green Forest. I wouldn't want to live there." The little Mouse who said this shivered.

Nimbleheela ahivered too. He half decided that he wouldn't live them after all. But if he didn't stay there. where could he

Nimbleheeis went back to the snug chamber in the ground to think things over. It was clear that there had been much bad luck in connection with this little house that seemed so nice. The little Mouse was tempted to leave at once, then wisely he lay down and curled up in his snug bed to think things over. He didn't think things over. He didn't even think of how safe that old house was. He didn't think at all. Instead. he went to sleep. When he awoke there was no one la- round.. He was all by himself. What do you think he did then? He went straight back to bed, rolled himself up into a tight ball, curled his long tail around him tightly. and went straight into the long sleelp from which he would not aw-aken again until late spr- ing or even early summer.

It goes without saying that South was his own worst enemy in the play, but the fact remains that Westls hold-up of the heart ace. at the risk or losing it, was the only defense that could give his side the slightest chance.
