To Danny Meadow Mouse Grandpa Pelican ‘was such a funny-looking fellow, whether fiying, fishing or sit- ting on an old stump, that Danny spent a great deal of time watching him. From Mocker the Mockingbird he found out that Grandpa Pelican lived wholly on fish, and so was not to be feared. When Danny had noth- ing else to do he would go over to the bank of the river.to see if Grand- pa Pelican was there sitting on that old stump. Sometimes Grandpa Pel- ican was off fishing. Then Danny would wait for ifs return. This is what he was doing one day when he heard a slight noise in a tree which overhung the water very near him. Danny peered up through the leaves anxiously. You see, he never knew when danger might be near. At first he saw nothing sus- picious. Then there was a mpvement of something long and slim and black. A cold shiver of fear ran all over Danay. “It” is one of Mr. Blacksnake's cousins up in that tree!” thought Danny, and-"held his breath. ‘What he saw certainly did look like the head, neck and part of the body of Mr. Blacksnake. For a moment or two it was motionless. Then it moved agaln, and, it moved in such a snaky way 'that’ there was no doubt in Danny’s mind that he was looking at a member of Mr. Blacksnake's family. Danny himself didn’t move. No, sir, he didn't move. He was too fright- ened to move. Even had he been less frightened he wouldn’t have moved, for he felt sure that he had not yet been seen. Again that snaky head and neck moved, and this time the head turned 80 that Danny could see it clearly. He almost squeaked aloud in his sur- prise. This snake, for he was still sure it was a member of Mr. Black- snake's family, actually had a long, slender, very sharp bill! At least it looked ‘so to Danny. He never had heard of’a snake with a bill, but then Annabel Warthington | | i { | e o e o2e 2! ~o%s - SN e o % 0. %e% "a¥" oV " %" % R B Becoming Lines.

But if he should come down on the ground, well, Dannny didn't like to think what might happen then. Once Danny started to try to steal away, but just as he moved that snaky head was turned in his di- rection. Danny didn't move agai He just squatted right wherp he was, shaking with fright and hoping and hoping that something would happen to give him a chance to get away. “A snake with a bill!
