The night after he left the old stone wall along the edge of the Old Or- chard the young Chuck, who had start- ed out to find a place in the Great World, spent curled up in a hollow log on the edge of the Green For- est. As soon as he had breakfast the next morning he started on. He kept along the edge of the Green 'Forest, 50 as to keep us much out of sight as possible.

Then he good naturedly swam back and forth so that the young Chuck could see how he did it. Finally he came out on the bank and began to ask questions. He wanted to, know where the young Chuck had come from, where he was going and what he intended to do. The young Chuck explained that he was ~looking for a place ‘in which to make a home for himself. B “I know the very place for you,” deelared Jerry Muskrat. “Where? Tell me where,” begged the young Chuck eagerly. “Right over on the Green Meadows on the other side of the Laughing Brook,” replied Jewy. “There is the finest ~ sweet clover and the finest BTass you ever tasted over there.” “But how can I get there?” cried the young Chuck, “By_swimming,” replied Jerry Musk- rat. “It isn’t far over there.” “But I can’t swint” cried the.young Chuck. “Pooh, of course you can!” retorted Any one can swim if he will only ‘think so. It's as easy to swim as it is to walk. Follow me and I'll show you the way over.” But the young Chuck shook his head. grew greater. He felt that he simply must get over there. “He sald that any ome can swim if he will only think so,” muttered the young Chuck, and drawing a_ long breath he plunged in. My} you sheuld have seen him paddle then! To his great surprige he found he could swim, He paddled as fast as he could make his legs go, and presently he was across. He lay down on the bank and rested for a while, and then went for something to eat. 'That very afternoon he started digging his new home, arid there he lived the rest of the summer.

Of course, when reached Laughing Brook, the vyoung Chuck stopped. He didn’t know what to make of it. He never had seen so much water before. He hadn't supposed that theré was so much water anywhere in the Great World. As he sat there, staring at_it, who should come along but Jerry Muskrat. Jerry swam across from the other bank. He was afraid of the water. Je tried in vain to get him to try it, and finally went off about his own business. For a long time the young Chuck sat there, looking across at thé other side. The longer he looked the greater be- came his desire to get over there. Sev- eral times he made ready to plunge in, but each time his courage failed him. and_each_tlme his desire to ge ceptable when he came to the peace fable, although we knew the American people would not back his high-minded but idealistic plan, and we found our Judgment sustained when the issue was placed before the American nation.” e sald, however, that former Presi- dent Wiison lived far in advance of the political life of the United States.
