"Caw, caw. cawi" shriekod Blacky the Crow. "Caw. caw, caw!" He was excited. He couldn't remember when he had been so excited. lie was circling about above a certain place over the Big River. There was a small place 0! open water not much bigger than a good sized puddle. It looked cold and black, It didn't look lovely at all. A little way irom it on the ice, a bird the size 0! a small Duck was flopping about That is all he seemed to be doing, just (lapping and beating the ice with his wings. Blacky had seen a hurt bird flop that way on the ground. But this one wasn't hulrt. It was Fiaptoes thc Grebe.

While he wasnt hurt, Flapiccs was almost as helpless as if he hat! been. He had flown so far that his wings could take him no farther and he had come down on the ice. Now he couldn't get up in the air again. He wasn't trying to get up in the air. He was trying to get to that cold, black, but to him lovely water. If he could get. there he would be safe.

"Hurry! Hurry! why don't you hurry?" shriekod Blacky tram over- head.

Flop. tiop. flop went Fil-Di0U- He was hurrying. Yes. sir. he was hur- rying. He was doing his very best. but it was slow work. You know you can hurry and still be slow. It was so nozv. But there was nothing slow about the way Raddy Fox was coming. Although Reddy had not seen Fiaptoes when he came down. he knew just what had happened. He knew just hcw helpless a Grebe is when not in the air or on the water. Also Roddy knew about that open water and that. of course. this almost helpless Grebe would do his best to reach it.

I-!l:l.ptoes was almost to the edge of the ice. Just ll few more flops and he would be in the water. But Roddy Fox was almost to Flapines. Blacky the Crow overhead was screaming himself hoarse. would Raddy get that dinner? It certainly looked so.
