Fvery time a twig snapped Whitefoot's heart seemed to jump right p in his throat. Every time ihe saw a moving shadow—and the branches of the trees moving in the wind_were constantly making mov- ing shadows on the snow—he dodged behind a tree trunk or under a piece of bark or wherever he could find a hiding place. You see, Whitefoot has so many enemies always looking for him that ihe always hides whenever'he sees anything moving. When at home he lis forever dodging in and out of his hiding places. So. because everything was strange to him, and because of the great fear of Shadow the Weasel, fhe ® ected everything that moved and every sound he heard. For a long way no one saw him, for no one was about. Yet all that way White- | foot twisted and dodged and darted ! from place to place, and was just as badly frightened as if there had been enemies all about. 1 UnSweg rewed WAPQRATE? | “Oh, dear! Oh. dear me!" he kept i ng over and over to_himself. ‘Wherever shall 1 go0? Whatever shall I do? However shall 1_get enough to eat? I won't dare go back to get food from my little store- houses, and I shall have to live in a strange place where I won't know where to 100k for food. 1 am getting tired. My legs ache. I'm hungry. I want my pice, warm, soft bed: -Oh, dear! Oh, dear! Oh, dear me:" But in spite of his frights White- foot kept on. You see, he was more afraid to stop than he was to go on. He just had to get as far from Shadow the Weasel as he could. Be- ing such a little fellow, what would be a short distance for you or I is a long distance for Whitefoot. And so that journey was to him very long indeed. Of course, it seemed longer because of the constant frights which came one right after another. It really Was a terrible journey. Yet if he had only known it there wasn't a thing slong_the whole way to be afraid of.

Besides, her own apartment stripped of all its treasures looked bare and colorless from Cecily’s depredations. Cecily was so busy that she didn't even bother to tell her good-bye. She’'d sent a taxi for her, but she didn’t remember to send her home in one, and Merry discovered when she was two blocks down the street that she hadn’t her purse. She walked wearlly home. Drifting into a badly needed nap, Merriam was aroused by another de- mand from Cecily. 'm sending a taxi over.

You have his portrait all the while, so I think it's hot more than fair that you should lend it to me for such a special occasion, Merriam agreed grudgingly. Grand- father Leland's portrait was the ap- ple of her father's eye. She felt only its custodian. She wrapped the tar- nished frame carefully. She was not at all gracious about letting' it go. Another hour passed. Again the telephone “Merry, darling, don't you suppose you could get your and Join's din- ner just for one night?

Susan makes such frabjous ones; oh, I know she simply loathes and de- tests me, but tell her I'll pay her anything she asks—" Susan Sue departed grumpily after much wheedling. “Deliver me.from old maids” she snorted as she banged the door. “Es- 'angled- ones At 6:30, while Merriam was glee- fully beginning to regale John with a mirthful account of her loans for the day, the telephone jangled madly.

Hand over the mouthpiece, he turned to his wife. “Cecily says,” he began dubiously, he knows that, being in the family, you will understand; but that at just tiils last minute one man has sent his regrets—and that she's going to murder him tomorrow for doing it— but that she doesn’t want a vacant place at the table, and she knows You're too tired to go over, 8o would you mind very much if I filled in for her. Of course, darling— Merriam waited not to hear his “course.” Color high, she snatched the re- ceivier. “Look here, Cec,” she let her justi- flable wratl spill over the wire, “I know you've gone plumb|crazy over this party.
