(By Thornton W. Some people crawl; some people run; Some people grumble just for fun. —Old Mother Nature.

People are different. Yes, sir, people are different. very different. They differ in looks. in vrliat they do, iii how they‘ think. in what they eat, in their work and in their play. They differ tn every possible way, which is a very good thing. the best possible thing. Trust 01d Mother Nature to know what she ls about. If everybody Iiad the same ideas, thought alike. did alike, agreed in everything. what a sorry world this would be! There would be no progress, nothing new. From difference of opinion spring all good things far better living.

Peter Rabbit is Iiappy-go-lucky. Ha doesn't have to work and he doesn't work. Ho doesn't look ahead and worry about the future He doesn't look back to what has been or might liaie bvrli. Ho liics from day to dziy, kicking up his long heels and doing xilxrit he wants to do if he can. If he can't he does something else and prcl tends 1i is iihiit he wanted to do.

Just now he was squatting with Mrs. Peter in an nld Chuck house ln the ground ill the middle of the dear old Briar-patch. In there 11103’ were snug and comfortable. Outside rough Brother North Wind drove liard. icy grains or snow hissing through the bushes and brambles of the old Briar- patch. whirling them across the Green Meadows in stinging, blind. in! clouds iliat none could face.

He doesn't like to be inside, so now, having nothing else to do. he grumbled.

"There is too miiiii snow a1. mﬂdlf.‘ grumbled Peter. "1 don't like it. I don't like being shut in hero."

"We can dig our way out willi- out riiuch trouble,“ said Mrs. Peter mildly.

"All the paths we had lrvddPYl out will be filled uP- Pmbagﬁl they are now." grumbled Peter.

"We can tread them out satin." replied Mrs. Peter.

"Zﬂiat will be a lot of work." gruiribled Peter. Then lie added, “I don't like work."

Mrs. Peter chuckled. "Does any- body think you do?" she asked softly.

"What's the matter? I thought you u-ei-e hungry." said Mrs. Peter.

"Nobody can go out in such a storm," grumbled Peter.

"Nobody with any sense wants replied Mrs. Peter.

But because you have nothing else tasdn you are getting fun out of grumbling, knowing things might be a lot worse. I don't mind, so go ahead, grumble rill you want to."
