forgot; everything but the wonderful feast before he!‘- She wasted no time, btit started to eat. at. once. She ate and she ate. So did Whltefoot. When they were so filled that. they coitldn't nibble another nibble. they rested a while.

"I'm too full to ntove." said Mrs. Whitefoot. washing her little white hands. She. is a very neat person. is little Mrs. Whitefoot.

“Me too." said Whitefodt. clean- ing his whiskers. He also is neat.

But they didn't. rest. very long. Mrs. Whttefoot. was too anxious to go all over the big pile of cornstalkl and pOke her inquisitive little nose into every opening between them.

As it had been with Whltefoot on his first visit. daylight found them still there. It. wouldn't be safe to try to get. back home. Too many sharp eyes were likely to be “latching.

"It. isn't. as i1 we must go. We wouldn't be any safer there than we are here." declared ilvhltefoilt as tltey peeped out at the. cornﬁeld.

Mrs. Vvhitefoot didn't. say a word. 1t is doubtful if she had heard what. Whltefoot. had said. She had discovered the other shocks of corn as far as her small eyes could see If all were like this one she ivas in. and they looked just. like it. there must. be enough of this wonderful food to last forever.

"What. do we g0 back at. all for?" she asked dreamtly.

Whitefoot ivas startled. He look- ed HVET to the Green Forest. "Our home. ls over there." said he. as if that settled the. question.

"lt doesn't have to be." replied

Whltefoot blinked. "What did you say?" he asked.

"it coiilti h» I'l'1i‘lt here." said

Mrs Wliitafoot. "But. think of all the seeds and other things we have worked so hard to get. and store away for winter use." squeal-red Whitefoot. Mrs Whitcfool. chuckled. 1t: was s._ nice. squeakv little chuckle. "Think of all this lowly food all stored away right. here just ilraitiitg for its." said she. "But." ivegan Whltefoot. "Don‘t. say but." interrupted Mrs. ivhitcfnnt. "But- " That was as far as White- foot. got. "I told you not. to say but. There isn't. any hilt.“ sqiieaked Mrs. Whitefoot severely. "We haven't. any plnre. to sleep here. Otir home is over there," pro- tested Whitetont. "We'll make a new home right "Vifhere?" asked Whitefoot s little doubtfully. "Leave that to me. We can't carry all this lovely food to our home. over thcre. It would be too dangerous to keep i-unniiig bat-k arid forth. much too dangerous. so vi-e'll just. make our home. right. here. Nobody will think of looking for us here. We won't. ever have to show ourselves while looking for food. We, won't have. to look. It. is right here waiting for us, enough to last. us all winter and more I guess. We'll net. busy right. tawny." declared little Mrs. White-
