BURGESS ANOTHER GAME OF HIDE AND SEEK VTOU remember the game of hide aad * seek Danny Meadow-Mouse played with Buster Bear? You remember what a very dreadful game If was for Danny? Rut hard as it was for Danny, It didn’t begin to be as hard as the game Llghtfoot the Deer was playing with the hunter In the Green Forest. In the case of Buster Bear and Danny, the latter had simply to keep Out of reach of Buster. As long as Buster didn't get his great paws on Danny the latter was safe. Then, too. Danny Is a very small person. He is so small that he can hide under two or three leaves. Wherever he is he Is pretty sdfe to find a'hiding phiee of some sort. His small size gives ’him advantages in a game of hide and seek. It cer- look and listen and test the air with his wonderful nose. Can you gufess what Llghtfoot was trying to do? He was trying to get behind the hunter so that the Merry Little Breezes would bring to him the dread ed man-scent. Asjong as he could get that scent he would know where the hunter was though he could neither see nor hear him. If he had remained where Sammy Jay had found him. the hunter might have come within ghoot- ing distance before Llghtfoot could have located him. So the hunter with the terrible gun walked noiselessly through the Green Forest, stepping with the greatest care to avoid snapping a stick underfoot, searching with keen eyes every thicket and likely hiding place for a glimpse of Llghtfoot and studying the ground for traces to show that Llghtfoot bad been there. — © T.

He is one of the largest of the people who live In the Green’Forest. Being so big, It Is not easy to hide. Moreover, a hunter with a terrible gun does not have to get close In order to kill. Llghtfoot knew all this as he waited for the coming of the hunter of whom Sammy Jay had warned him. He had learned many lessons In the hunting season of the year before and he remembered every one of them. He knew that to forget even one of them might cost him his life. So, stand ing motionless behind a tangle of fallen trees, Llghtfoot listened and watched. Presently over In the distance he heard Sammy Jay screaming, “Thief, thief, thief!” A little sigh of relief escaped Llghtfoot. He knew that that screaming of Sammy Jay was a warn ing to tell him where the hunter was. Knowing Just whei\p the hunter wasr made It easier for him to know what to do. A Merry Little Breeze came stealing through the Green Forest. It came from behind Llghtfoot and danced away towards the hunter with the ter rible gun. Instantly Llghtfoot began to steal softly away through the Green Forest. He took the greatest care to make no sound. He went In a half cir cle, stopping every few minutes to ^YOU Know— Dear Mr. Wynn: 1 am In love with a young lady and asked her to marry me.
