Noisy tongues are a.pt't.o be Never quite from misohiei irse. -'-Old Mother Nature.

It is true. That i.s because noisy

. tongues usually are the tongues of

idle folk, and idle lolk like to hear their own voices so are not care- ful -what they say. Now in the Green Forest is no one who loves the sound of his own voice as does Chatterer the Red Squirrel. He never misses a chance to scold others and Jeer at them. When there is no cine around to whom -he can do this he scoids just tor the fun 01 it, to hear his own voice. The result is he isn't loved by his neighbors who like peace and quiet. You see, that noisy tongue too 0!-

. ten gets others into trouble.

Reddy Fox was quite himself now. There was only a little stiffness in the leg in which he had been shot. Mrs. Reddy no longer shared with him what she caught. he wouldn't let her. what he ate he found and caught himself. While he was hun- gry most or the time he was not starving. Hunger is to be expected in winter most at the time by the Green Forest and Green Meadow ioi-k, so Raddy was no worse off than many of his neighbors. Now that he could do his own hunting he was more or an optimist than ever.

Sometimes he hunted at night. sometimes he hunted by day. it do- pended on the weather, on how hungry he was. and on how he felt.

The arguments raised by North and South were these:

South insisted that with only two clubs in North's hand to "tit" Sc-uth's opening bid. North did not. have a. sound jump response in s. new suit. south further maintained that North's four-club bid-on those' same two clubs. however high-was wrong.

North argued that his own bid- ding was right thr ' t and

, that Scutlfs was correspondingly

wrong.

It should not be diiiioult to prove that North had much the sounder position in this disputei His first response, at any rate, was quite ac- ceptable; and his (our-club bid might have turned out very well (although three hearts would have been a better call.)

South's bidding. however. was en- tirely bad! He should have started with one diamond. holding the club suit in reserve for his rebid; and he had no right whatever. alter Nos-th's Jump takeout, to drop the bidding short of game. Actually. the partners have landed at three notruinp. via the simple bidding: one diamond by south. two hearts by North.

he .This.momlng the weather was line. he was hungry, and he was wide awake and felt fine. so he was over in the Green Forest hoping to sur- prise Jumper the Hare but not real- ly expecting to. or catch one of the children oi Thunderer the Grouse. He had long ago given up hope oi catching Thunderer himself. or Mrs. Grouse. They were too wise, with the wisdom or exzperience. to be caught by any Fox. Then there were Mice, always Mice to be look- ed for. A Mouse wouldn't make a dinner but would be a bite, and sev- eral bites could make a. feast.

He had seen no one since he en- tered the Green Forest, but he hunted as watohiully and caretluiiy as it he knew just where some one was hiding. It was very still there. so still that it seemed as it the very trees were holding their breath and listening. The stillness was broken suddenly and noisly: -

"Raddy Fox is over here! So look out! so look out; He can't catch you when you know I-leis about! He's about."

' That was Chatterer the Red 'Squirrel. He was peering down from high in a tree, Now he ran down ithe tree head first Reddy always 'wc.ndercd how any one could creep idmvn a tree that way, not to ment- iion running down.

Raddy Fox can't catch me!" teased Chatterer, and his voice could be heard for a long way in all directions among the still trees.

Raddy knew that hunting arcvuml there would be useless now..lle sat down at the toot or the tree and looked up at chstterer.

"Do you think that is fair?" ask- ed Raddy.

For a moment Chatterer's noisy tongue was still. Then he demand- ed. ”Do I think what is fair?"

"Spoiling for another when he is very hungry his chance of getting something to eat?" replied Roddy.

"It a hunter with a. dreadful gun should come along and I warned You. would you think it lair," re- torted Chatterer.
