children ii-om Playtime Lane had gathered. It was quite cold and windy. so the children decided they would need to run to keep warm. ”what could we play?” asked Susan.
"Play one. two, three, go!" said David.
The others laughed. "You mean we should have a race. dear." Susan said smiling fondly at her little brother. ”But you are too small to run with us. You and Laurie are only three, but I'm six. and Brenda and Helen are older than that."
"Lev; play Red Rover," spoke up Helen. s
"The little ones wouldn't under- stand that," objected Brenda. "I know. Let's play ”Follow the Leader." '
"That is a game. I'll be the leader. We'll all march one behind the other, and you all watch me. You do exactly what I do. Un- rlcrstand7" asked Brenda.
The others nodded. Helen got behind Brenda. then Peter and Susan. Laurie and David. being the youngest, went at the end. Brenda started oft slowly, with her- arms stretched out straight. All the others did the same. She changed in hopping and they all hopped.

"You silly thing!" laughed Helen. "We aren't shooing anything. We are playing a game."
"March like a soldier." Brenda ordered. "Arms still. Swing them out. Lift your knees. Forward march! Left, right, leit. right, leit right."
This was one part Peter andi
David and Laurie enjoyed. for they often played soldier and went marching through the orchard.
”Change to a run," whispered Helen.
"Run!" shouted Brenda, and started off. It is no wonder that she and Helen got ahead. their legs were so much longer than the others. Susan and Peter. could al-

Now his father, Johnny Chuck, had seen that hunter hiding be- hind an old stone wall and had known just what was going to hap- pen. He had whistled a warning, but his young son had not heeded it. Now he was down in his home in the ground airaid to come out. and doubly frightened because he didn't understand at all what had happened.
Meanwnile, Joiinny Chuck had been lying very that in the grass watching (or that hunter behind the old stone wall along the road. Johnny was patient. He didn't move.
lAt long last the hunter give up
and went away. Then Johnny went over to Buster's home and called softly at the doorway. Presently Buster came slowly up and put his head outside. There was still a look or iright in his eyes.

Laurie and David lay on the ground, laughing and laughing un- til the rest "laughed with them. Frisky rzin barking to them, and tried in lick Laurie's lace.
"You're in lucky chuck," said Johnny. ”It is a. wonder you are alive. Why didn't you need the warning I whistled?"
"I didn't see any danger." whimp- ered the young chuck. "I don't know now what it was."
"It was the greatest danger that we chucks ever have to watch tor," explained Johnny. "Whenever you see a big-two-legged person make sure that he doesn't see you. Thue two-legged talks can hurt or kill one of us without being near at all."
"Did you hear a sharp noise Just beiore you dived into your house?" asked Johnny.
The young chuck nodded. "I heard -
it. I heard something whistle close past my ear," said he.
"That was something that came from one or those two-legged folks. He was hiding behind the old stone wall down there. You were lucky that you only heard it. If it had hit hit you, you wouldn't be alive now. Never forget that some of those two-legged iolk are some or the most dangrous enemies you have. Whenever you see one, get out of sight.
