(HE OLD NEW HOME

A home's a home though old or new, Providing love dwells in it too. -Old Mother Nature.

Gray Fox and Mrs. Gray had a new home, but it was an old home too. in fact it was so old that no one had been living in it for a long time. it was a big hollow log around which young evergreen trees had grown until they had completely hidden it. It was open at hoth ends. although one end was partly filled with dead leaves. Gray Fox had known oi that old log ever since he had lixod in the Green Forest. Mrs.

Gray. who hadn't lived in the Green Forest quite as long. hziiinit known iii it until Gray Fox led

her to it.

"it's so old that I didn't think you would be interested in it." explained Gray Fox.

Gray Fox said nothing. He was thankful that Mrs. Gray had found what she wanted. but why ahe wanted it he didn't as yet understand. However, it didn't matter. if she was satisfied. he was satisfied.

Vow this old log was in a se- cluded part of the Green Forest. It was away from the Crooked Little Path that most folks used. That just suited Mrs. Gray Fox.

"it will be a perfect place for the children while they are little. said she. ”Nobody is going to

think to look here for them. We must” keep it a secret as long as we can that we are living here."

one had happened to visit the old .iog, and so no one had discover- ed that anyone was living there. in the middle of April the old new home had become a nur- sery. There were three little Gray if-iox cubs in there. It was when ithey were big enough to begin to poke their little noses outside of the old log that the secret was no longer a secret. Now, in mid- summer. all the Green Forest folk knew where Gray Fox and his family were living; and most
