Finally he had chosen a spot just. under the fence between the Old l"astu1'c and the Green Meadows. Bushes grew along that fence. Between them, he could look from his doorstep over to the door Old Brinr-patch where Peter Rabbit and Mrs. Peter lived. Beiore deciding on that spot Johnny hnd made sure of one thing - he hnd made sure that plenty to that edge of the Green Meadows. in was looking ahead.

No, air. he was thin, compared with what he would be by and by. no could run ialrly not now. and so he could venture iarthor from home than would be ado later.

That decided the matter (or Johnny and he went to work dicgiru that hole. Johnny is a good diner. Yes. sir. Johnny is a good digger. First he dug a long slanting hau. There were some roots, but theyswere not big ones. He hit these or! with his big cutting teeth. once he found a big stone in the way. He made a turn in his hall around that stone. "I will probably stay- here through next winter, so I'll make my bedroom deep enough to be be- low the reach of Jack Frost." thought Johnny. This he did. He made that hall no bigger than was necessary to enable him to run along it easily. Hero and there he widened it, making what. you would call a landing. These wider places were to give him room to turn a- round. with his stout digging claws of his front, ieet he dug a- my the earth and loosened small stones and pebbles. To get this out he turned himseli into a sort oi living bulldozer. He used his stout hind feet to push himself up the hallway already dug. pushing ahead oi him the loose sand and pebbles with his chest. Peter Rabbit had come over to watch him work. As usual Peter was iull oi curiosity. He wanted to know ii Johnny would have a back door. 0!. course, it was no business of Peter's, and Johnny didn't tell him. After Peter had left, Johnny talked to himself. "01 course I'll have a back door. No Chuck with any sense at all would make a home without, a back door. The question is. will one back door be enough? It could be. yet it might not be. Two back doors would be better. and three better still." Johnny went outside to look a- round and see Just where back doors that would be well hidden of sweet clover was growing close 1 Ste. Anne De Beaupre Pilgrimage LEAVING HALIFAX. MONDAY.
