BURGESS out being seen. That means that if I am to live as long as other Robins I must be a little bit smarter than others. I must keep my wits work- ing all the time. It won't do for me to ever forget that T am different from other birds and that I must be | on the watch every second. 1 must even take extreme care in finding a roost for the night. This white coa of mine must show up in the dark, and it would be easy for Hooty the Ow! to find me.” | So young Robin soon became the smartest Robin in the neighborhood. It came about that he seldom had a narrow escape, because he seldom gave him enemies a chance. He never for an instant forgot how easily he could be seen, and so he never was careless. His brothers d sisters, whom he saw once in a while, often were careless simply because they had mnothing to worry them and Keep them alway on the watch. While that white ¢ handicapped this young Robin, it a tually helped him by making him use his wits all the time in order that he might live. He became quite famous. body for a long distance around knew about him. On many a night when he had nothing else to do, Hooty the Owl hunted for that White Robin. He had heard about him, but he had never seen him, because, you know, Hooty comes out at night and sleeps by day, while Robins come out by day and sleep through the night. t ought to be easy to find him,” grumbled Hooty. “If he is as white as they say he Is, he ought to show up in the dark. One of these nights T'll find him.” But Hooty never did. You see, that young Robin wasn't content to spend the night as other Robins did. He | | knew that he could be easily seen by | eves that see in the dark.

He has u good time and easy work, and I have found out that he has flirtations that I am afraid to investigate for fear that I will find them worse than T know.
