A MOTHER'S EARS

You will find I. mother's fears

Always sharpen eyes and ears. -Old Mother Nature. u to 0

What Old Mother Nature has said is true. There is nothing like feet to sharpen a mother's eyes and ears. Mothers are always looking for trouble and listening for trouble. It is so much 3 mm: -with them that when they neither see nor hear their children in trouble they are more worried lhnn ever. Mothers are funny that way. vs Mother Bear was otit looking for something to eat. She dicinit. much care what. it was as long as she could eat it. She even ate a mouthful or two of grass. She dug up some roots and ate those. she tried to tear open an old stump to get at some ants. Ants are very good eating if you like them. That is what Bears think, anyway. She tried to dig out a Mouse from beneath some roots. hut the Mouse was too quick for her. A Mouse wouldn't have been a mouthful, but it would have been is bite. when you are as hungry as Mother Bear was. a bite helps. But she didn't get the bite and went on looking for any- thing that would fill her stomach and let her get back to her cubs. A stomach is a great. nuisance sometimes. but it seems to be a verynecessary nuisance. The truth is. stomachs rule the world. Full stomachs. unless they are too full. mean peace. contentment and happiness. There are too many empty stomachs in the world.

All the time Mother Bear was wandering farther and farther from where she had left her two uulu. She had sent the little black .'tmpa up in a pine tree and told them to stay there until she re- turned. She told them that if they came down out of that tree the would spank them. and they knew she would. so they had scrambled up in the tree and Mother Bear went off to look for the food she so much needed. All the time she was looking she was listening, too. Even the need or an empty stomach couldn't put those mischievous lmps out of her

mind. so while her eyes looked for food. her ears listened for any unusual sounds back by that big pine tree.

Perhaps because she was listen- ing she didn't use her eyes as well as usual. Anyway. she had found no more than half a breakfast. p! when those listening ears caught. g. A sound that caused her to throw 5 up her head and listen more in- ' gtcntly.

She sat up the better to listen. 'Ii Merry Little Breeze. one of Old Mother West Wind's child- ien. came hurrying from the .direction of the big pine tree where she had left those precious ,t-.ubs. Straight to those listening ;ears that Merry Little Breeze brought a sound that caused the hair on the back of Mother Bear's '-neck to begin to rise. Her lips 'drew back in just. the faintest of 'snarls. "Haw, baw. baw. baawl" irame the faintest of sounds.

Mother Bear growlecl. It was an .ugly growl. Then she plunged in fthe direction of that sound It ?had become a wall now. In fact. It had become two wails.- anti ,there was fright. in them. some- ,thing was happening t.o her bab- Hes!

. Now Mother Bear is big and ;:he looks clumsy. she doesn't look as if she can move fast. But fit you think she can't. that is your mistake. Be sure not to ,make it when she is around. The if-way in which she tore through the Green Fore: was something itn see. Twice she stopped to lis- jten. The sound of those bawling .bebies was louder now. She knew ithat those cubs had not been :hurt. They were not bowling ifrom pain. but were bawling from imznt. Each time after listening ufor a moment. Mother Bear snort- ed and then bounded ahead. she Nlrlshed through brush andjump- .ecl over fallen trees and logs. that were in her way. Her eyes were red with rage.

The sound of those two small voices stopped. She stopped. the better to listen. She heard noth- ing. What did that mean? Had something a l r e a d y happened. something dreadful, to still those small voices? she plunged ahead. Fear. not for herself but for those precious cubs. was giving her more speed than ever. She was running almost blindly, too anxious to watch her step.

Up in the very top of the tall pine tree clung two little black imps. now too frightened to cry. A little way below them was Bus- ter Bear. He was their father. but he didnt know it. They didn't- know it either. But it would have made no difference had all of them known it. Buster was try- ing to shake them out of that tree.
