Mouser and Mrs. Mouser. the so~called short-cared Owls, al- though their ears are neither short nor long, had made up their minds to stay on the Green Meadows for the summer. They would make a heme and raise a family there in- stead oi going farther north as they had been in the habit 0t do- ing, Mouser had arrived first and had found so many Mice on the Green Meadotvs that getting a Mouse dinner and that is his ia- Vorlte dinner. was no trouble at all. lie could pick it up out oi the grass alinost any time anywhere. "My dear, you never have scen anything like it." said he to Mrs. Mouser when she arrived rind they started out to look over the Grcen Meadows. She admitted that she never had seen anything like it. With food so plentiful and easy to get there would be little trouble in raising a large family. so they had decided to stay. For a few day: they did little but rest, for they had come a long distance, eat, and get acquainted with the Green Meadows and the sizrroundings. Then they began looking for a place for their nest. Perhaps I should say that Mrs. Mouser did that. Mouser had learned long ago that whatever idea he might have Ln the matter he might as well hold his tongue. The nest would be where Mrs. Mouser wanted lt to be and no- where else. ' The place that. she kept return- ing to was over near the Big River. There she flaw back and forth this way and that way. dropping down in the grass every few minutes to look over the ground more caro- fully. "I like to be near Iwster." said she. "Of course we don't have to be, but I would rather be than not." Mouser understood how she felt. " At last she settled on a place for their nest. It was back a short distance from the Big River on his hizhest part at the Green Meadows where the ground was dry. There was some bunch grass grouring there. It would grow last and help hide any nest on the zround in the midst of it “This is it." she declared. Mouser looked g, little troubled. "I wonder it you have soon what I have seen just a little way iron: here.” said he. "What have you seen?” asked she. "What is left o! u: old nest." replied Mouser. “I've seen it. What o! it?" said Mrs. Mouser. She spoke carelessly. She was busy looking over the; ground to decide exactly when; she! would make that nest, ‘ "I irhlnk it ls an old nest oi the Marsh Har-vks.” said Mouser. “What if It is? 1K1: an old nest; Besides there are no Marsh Hawks, around." replied Mrs. Mouser. She; wasbusy treading down g. place in- the grass. ; "They msyromo any day now; I have heard that they like to; come back to the samyplace whom they nested the year before and‘ fix up the old nest to use again." explained Mouser.

"Mr. and Mrs. Harrier may not come back. If they do they probably will build somewhere else. Don't tell mc they will use an old nest like that l like this place. We got here first and here we will stay." 1t was the next day ,whlle they were hunting over near the Green Forest, that they saw Harrier the Marsh Hawk cutting capers in the slgy. He would sn-oop down almost to the ground. then seem to bound up, turning a somersault and then doing it all over agoin. He would mount way, way up until ho looked like a small bird, then came tum- bling over and, over out o! the sky, stopping his fall Just in time. The two Owls perched on a ience and watched him. Alter-a while he ilew over toward the Big River. He llxhted on the ground Just where they knew that old nest tobe, The next day Mrs. Harrier appeared. Together they visited the old nest. Mrs. Mouser was squatting in the grass where (Continued on P880 16) THE WRONG QUESTION Today's deal comes from a corres- pondent who asked ior a decision regarding the bidding. Apparently he and his group did not. realize that the crucial question concerned the play. “Dear Mrs. Culbertson: South in the following deal was ghgrply criticized for bidding a slam.
