WATEIIFOOTS DOUBLE SCAR!

Those longest live who understand That danger lurks on every hand. , ....Oid Mother Nature.

There is no one so big or no one so small that he lives wholly free from danger. It is those who never forget this who live longest. so never think that others are any better off in the matter of sudden frights than you are.

Peter Rabbit had made the ac- quaintance U Weterfoot the Water shrew over at the smiling Pool. He had watched Waterfoot run on the surface of the water. dive. swim and walk on the bottom. He told Mrs. Peter all about it.

"He looks a lot like his cousin. Short-tail the shrew, only he has a long tail instead of a short one, and big broad hind feet. He is 9. real Shrew. Yes, my clear, he is a real Shrew. You would know that just: to look at him."

"I don't want to look at him." said Mrs. Peter. ”I don't like Shrews."

"But." said Peter Just as if Mrs. Peter hadn't said a word, "he is just as much at home in the water as is Jerry Muskrat. Sometimes I almost wish we lived in the water."

"Don't be silly." exclaimed Mrs. Peter. "Why in the world should you want to live in the water?"

"Well, for one thing I don't think they have so many enemies to Watch for. and when one does try

moods and clubs to round out the contract.

To stort with. East was unres- listic in hoping that his partner had held three hearts. with that num- ber, headed by the ten. West would have led his lowest card of the suit. second. East was a little.wo fast in taking his diamond aoei He should have held that card up as long as possible. and had he done so. west would have had the chance to announce, via a low club signal. that East should not look to him for sustenance in that dir- ection! This would have left East with only one fair chance-to shift to spades, on the hope. how- ever remote, that West had a four- csrd. spade suit to the see. to catch one of them out of the water, he can always dive into the water and be perfectly sale. I guess Jerry Muskrat isn't afraid of any- body when he is in the water and it must be just as sale there for Waterfaot," said Peter.

"You are talking about something you don't. know anything about. Any one as small as a shrew must have to watch out all the time wherever he is," declared Mrs. Pe- ter.

"He probably has to whm he is on land, but not when he is in the water." retorted Peter as if he knew all about it. I suspect he thought he did. A lot of folks are that way. They Jump to conclusion. Because they know a little about a subject they think they know all about it.

The very next evening Peter was back at the smiling Pool. For a long time he saw nothing of water- foot. Jeny Muskrat and Mrs. Jerry were swimming about. Old Mr. Toad and the Frog chorus were doing their best. Redwing the Blackbird -was singing his goodnight love song to Mrs. Redwing. It was love- ly and peaceful there, the happy hour at the Smiling Pool. Up from the Big River with slow best of great wings came Longiegs the Heron. At the edge of the water Just a little way from where Peter was sitting hfdrglped his long legs. which had be straight out behind. him while rlylnz. looking like a long thin tail. folded his great wings, stretched his long neck up for a look all around. then told- ed it back on his shoulders and very, very slowly walked along at the edge of the water. At every step he stopped long ough to search in the water 101' a fish or Frog within rench. and along the shore for a Frog or any one else small enough for him to swallow down that long throat of his.

Suddenly, Longlegs took a swift stride forward and his long neck shot out and down for its full length. The spear-like bill struck. but just too late. Pom had just a glimpse of a small person scrambl- ing for the rwater. There was a faint plop and splash. Peter had seen who that small person was. It was Waterfoot the Shrew. He was sure of it.

"I'm glad old Lcmglegs didn't catch him.” thought Peter. "Yes, sir, I am so. But what a scare Water- foot must have had! It is lucky for hlrn that he was close to the water. It is as I told Mrs. Peter, folks at home in the water are safe when they are there. They haven't much to worry about."

Ionglegs had gone on to the other end of the Smiling Pool. For just a little way from shore the water in front of Peter was very shallow. out beyond there was a loud splash ,foliowccl by tiny splashes coming straight toward Peter. A small person came scram- bling through the shaliow water and out beside Peter. It was water- foot. Peter had just a glimpse of a big fish in the deeper water. "Was he after you?" asked Peter. Folks do ask such foolish questions some- times.
