. with Lest they shall prove to be unfair, MRS. GROUSE.i

...A hunter with a dreadful gun had found the thicket in which Mrs Grouse and her family happened totbc. She had warned the child ren to be sure not to fly until she took to her wings. That would be the signal for them to fly in dif- ferent directions. -One. more tim id than the others. had not been able to wait. He felt that be just had”-to fly. and he did fly.. Then the thing happened that Mrs. Grouse had feared. There was a report of the dreadful gun and the young Gouse fell head-long into the thicket. Mrs. Grouse took to her wings with a roar almost in the face of the hunter and all the young Grouse flew also. each in a different direction-

Now the young Grouse who had been shot was in a way lucky. He didn't think so, but he was- He had been what is called "winged". That means. one wing had been so hurt that it could not be used for flying. Otherwise he was not badly hurt. As soon as he hit the ground he was on his feet and running, looking for a place in which to hide. In one place in, that thicket the brown leaves lay in a small pile. The young Grouse crept under those leaves. He wasn't. fully -hidden. but his coat and the leaves were so near- ly of the same color that he re-

The hunter came in looking for him. The young Grouse lay there without moving a feather. He knew he couldn't fly and it was this knowledge that enabled him to keep perfectly still now. Once the hunter almost stepped on him, but didn't see him. find the hunt- er had a dog with him, it would have been a differeng story. so Fgain the young Grouse really was u

Finally the hunter gave up and left the thicket. The young Grouse rontinued to lie there, not moving- lie didn't care move. That wound- :-d wing ached. it ached dread. fully. but the fright he was suffer- ing was even greater than the paid. He wanted ha mother. Oh. how

But his mother waairt there. why didn't she come back? Pre- sently in the distance sounded that dreadful gun again. Had his mother been hurt or perhaps Eilled. For a long long time he lay there wishing his mother would come back. Perhaps she has been so frightened that she had left that part of the Green Forest. Perhaps she had been so frightened that she would never come back. And where was his father Thunderer? He hadn't been with them when that dread- ful hunter came. And where were his brothers and sisters? Why didn't someone come?

But it was mostly of his mother that he thought. it was she that would know what to do now that with despair. And despair is a very dreadful feeling. It was bad enough to be all alone in the Great World. but worse to be all alone and hurt- if he couldn't fly how was he going to be able to set away from Reddy Fox and some of the other hunters in fur and feathers?

All the time Mrs. Grouse was artfully leading that hunter fur- ther and farther away. She hadn't forgotten that wounded one. She didn't know if he were alive or dead. But first she must lead that hunter away as far as possible.

Both are economic. The first is lack of people to live in its ultra- modern blocks of apartments wlhlch are a model of town Pill!- n ng.

The second is a threat by Brit- ish railways to give. up their Southampton-Le I-lavre f e r r Y which brings 55,000 passengers a year through the port.

Le Havre has become a busy trans-Atlantic port only 10 years after s committee of experts had expressed doubts about the possibility of rebuilding it.

The port, over 400 years old. was heavily bombed by Allied air forces during the war when it was a German submarine base. Later, the retreating Germans ex- ploded one-ton land mines along every N yards of its docks.

Reconstruction of the port was largely due to the port director Pierre Callet. a small. alert man."

The port, inked by pipeline to oil refineries in the interior. band- led 10,215,312 tons of fuel oil last year.

The city itself was rebuilt from rubble by a team of architects headed by Auguste Ferret. Blocks of apartment bulldlnts it storey.-2 nigh. set well apart In live max- imum sunlight for lower build ings. line spacious boulevards.
