Peter Rabbit was anxioul. He was worried. Never had he been more anxious and worried. It aeemed to him that .Little Mrs. Peter had suddenly gone. crazy. Certainly it was a crazy thing she was doing. At least it seemed so to Peter. She who seldom went more than a few feet. outside the dear Old Briar-patch. was now nearly halt-way across the Green Men- dows. The strange part ot it all was that it looked as it she was go- ing to meet Flip the Terrier.

' Now Flip, who lives at Farmer Brown's house, delights in chasing and trying to catch the smaller people at the Green Meadows and the Green Forest. Ho hunts them lor nothing in the world but the fun and excitement at trying to catch them and shake them to death. That's a strange way of having lun, isn't it? But there ara people just like Flip. They like to frighten others for no reason at all, and they call it fun. Flip take: particular pleasure in trying to catch Pi-tor, Mrs. Peter, or any other Rabbit he can find outside a brambie tangle. ,

Now Peter knows all about Flip and how fast he can run. Peter has more ihaii once had to run and dodge to save his life

It really did look as it Mrs. Peter was doing something that was crazy. As yet the little Dog had not seen her, but he would in a

What. was the matter with little Mrs. Peter? She wasn't running toward the dear Old Briar-patch. That was the nearest place or aatety. but she wasn't running to- ward it at all. She was running to- ward the Old Pasture which was nearly bwlce as tar away.

"Crazy!" cried Peter. "She cer- tainly is crazy! I never have known her to do such it crazy thing be- lore."

It certainly did look as if Mrs. Peter was doing a crazy thing. For a short distance she could run as fast as Flip the Terrier, per- haps faster. But she could do that for only a short: distance. Then she would have lo depend on dodging. You know she and Peter are won- derful dodgers. Dodging has saved
