At the conclusion of the meeting the members enjoyed a delicious supper served by the hostess. Mrs. Wigiitmn. after which the mem- bers and their wives were the

Mr. Howard MacLean of George-

town, assistant electrical inspec- tor for the Province was I busi- ness visitor to Savage Harbour on i Monday. C.H. saying is, Young Reddy had met other visitors there. They had had big tails with black rings around them, and they had worn masks across their faces. Do you guess who they were? Of course. They were Bobby Coon and his family. They were doing a lot of harm there. for they were breaking down I lot of corn to get the milky ears. They were wasteful rascals. They would take a bite or two from an car. then leave it and pull down another. Young Reddy watch- ed them from I distance. They were too big for him to interfere with. He was wise enough to be polite. Already, he had found out that politeness pays. if nothing is gained through it, neither is any- thing lost.

It was some time since he had found any of Bobby Coon's family in the cornfield. They liked it only when it was in the milky stage. For several nights he had met no one there. and so he had come to think of himself as the only hunter there. However. he was too smart to be careless. So it was that all the time he used his eyes, and his ears. and his nose as he had been taught to use them. and as Mother Nature meant that he should use them. So it was that his ears picked up a slight sound on the other side of is shock of corn in front of him.

"A Mouse." thought Y o it n g Reddy. and licked his lips. He took a slow. careful step. and another. then stopped to listen again. He peeked around the shock. There not what looked to him like a-giant Mouse. He was so big that he would be I whole dinner in himself. Yet he didn't look big enough for Young Reddy to be afraid of him. Young Roddy prepared to spring on the big Mouso. Young Reddy was mak- ing I mistake, but he didn't know it.
