UP RIVERSIDE DRIVE ON TOP OF GRANT'S TOMB WELL WORTH A SETTING OVER' New York ity Dear J. T. C. Members: Thig is u big town, too big to be co and how they run automebil do not understand. Out on Rivers drive they go along fine, but other places it is a tight squeeze. It is a fine ride along that drive ith Grant's tomh overlooking the Hudson river. You can see ships moving _about everywhere and now and then a battleship. 1 took a ride around the island, did you know this big city is on an isiand, and that is the best wav to see the tall buildines and the twa wonderful bridges over the Hudson on the East Side of the town. They call it the river. If you ever visic here € v @ green bus that goes up Fifth avenue.

Flight. BY THOENTON W. BURGESS, Its no disgrace to run away When all is lost if you but stay. —Mr. Blacksnake. Farmer ~Brown's boy steod on:the steps of his homs Tooking over to-| ward his garden. “(oGdness!” ex claimed Farmer Brown's Boy. “Good- ness, what a racket those birds are; making! I know what it means. They have found a snake. over there. Prob- ably it is little Mr. Gartersnake. T saw him over there the other day and was glad to see him. He couldn’t hurt one of those birds if he tried. In fact, Be is rather a useful little fel- low in the garden. If it wasn't so hot 1 would go over there. But they won't hurt Mr. Gartersnake and he can't hurt them, 5o T Fuess they will give it up soon.” But the birds didn’'t give up. They grew more and more excited. So at last Farmer Brown's Boy started for the garden. Peter Rabbit was the only one who suw him coming. and Peter sighed happily. This was what he had hoped for. The feathered folk were too intent on making snake uncomfortable by scr MAKING FOR THE STONE LL." THOUGHT FARMER BROW 5 sorts of bad things at him and by pretending they were goihg to peck his eyes out to notice Farmer Brown's Boy, and Mr. Blacksnake was too in- tent on getting a chance to catch one of his tormentors to heed anything else. So Farmer Brown's Boy was close at hand before he was noticed at all. “Phew!” exclaimed Farmer Brown's Boy as he saw Mr. Blacksnake.. “How. that fellow has grown since I last saw him. We can't have him around here. It might mean the end of my friend, Old Mr. Toad. I wouldn't lose Old Mr. Toad for the world.” He turned and hurried over to the stone wall on the edge of the garden and cut a long switch from a bush grow- ing there. 2 When he got back he found that Mr. Blacksnake had left. He had seen Farmer Brown's Boy and decided that it was best for him to go while he could. So he had silently glided off. But if Mr. Blacksnake was silent the birds were not. They followed him, screaming louder than ever and dart- ing down at him. You see, he couldn’t strike at them unless he was coiled. Besides. he was too much of a hurty - to get ‘away. So Farmer Brown's boy could tell by the birds just where he was. “He is making for the old stone wall.” thought Farmer Brown's Boy. “That won't do. It won't do at all, If he gets in among those stones, J1i never get hif out:" . 3 % So Farmer Brown's Boy ran-to head Mr. Blacksnake off, and not far from the old stone wall they met face to face. At once Mr. Blacksnake tried to bluff. To bluff, you know, is to e (O pretend. Heé pretended that he was id and tried to make Farmer Brown's Boy afraid. He threw him- self into a cofl and hissed angrily. darting his . forked tongue out and shaking his tail.much as Buzstail the Rattiesnake Would shake.his rattle; © Farmer Brown's Boy laughed and Mr. Blacksnake flew into a great rage, He rushed right at Farmer Brown's Loy, hoping to make him ryn.

The last he saw of Mr. Blacksnake was a black streak ‘headed for the distant swamp. -“Phew!” exclaimed Farmer Brown's Boy. “Phew. s hot!” Then he turned toward home. _ (Copyright. 1921, by T. W.
