After breakfast was over, she was off outdoors. She wanted to spend every minute playing, for it would not be very long until school started again. When she came yesterday, she had found a play- mate in Alan. who lived next door She wanted to play with him again today.

That was one thing Janie liked about Alan. They were both six. and both had been in school year. He did not always want to he boss. and neither did she, so they got along fine together.

The two started off. but they found it harder to get Mu-mu to walk than they had expected. He was on his holidays too, and in a strange place, so he wanted to find out about everything. He thought :here might be a dog friend for aim somewhere. so he poked an inquisitive nose into every gala- way.

"This won't do." scolded Janie. "Come here. Mu-mu! I knniv what we'll do. We'll go back and get a leash for him. then he can't go away."

Ian and Janie hurried back to ask Grandfather for a piece of string, All he could find was a length of ordinary cotton string that came around a parcel from the grocery store.

"That will be fine, thank you." smiled Janie. "Come here. Mn-mu, until i tie this to your collar." Mu-mu was quite satisfied to let them tie the string to his new shiny collar with its brass studs. Then off the three went. Mu-mu ahead. with Janine following be-l hind holding on to the string.

stones of the old wall. Now he could barely hear the hunting call of Booty the Owl. He was tired; he was sleepy. In spite of the strangeness of his surroundings he fell asleep almost at once; and he didn't wake up until morning. When he did wake up he couldn't think where he was. He crawled back up the way he had entered. He sat on top of the old wall trying to decide what he should do next should he try to go back home? or should fhe go on? He decided that he would i go back home. Then he discovered something. He discovered some- thing that for the moment was most unpleasant. He didn't know where home was.
