BEDTIME STORIE Diving Family, Each has his own pecullar art, Which fits him best to do hie’ part. —Old Mother Nature. ‘The six bables of Mrs. Grebe had diimbed up on her back and were once more riding around as she swam with them. Peter Rabbitt, who was watching them, bel{m to wonder what would happen some danger suddenly ap- ared. “If Mrs. Grebe were alone,” thought Peter, “she would dive. But what un- “BUT YOU COULDN'T DO THAT!" CRIED PETER, der the sun would she do with those babies? I think I'll ask her.” So, when Mrs. ‘Grebe was near enough, Peter did ask her. “Supposing | Mrs. Grebe,” said he, “danger should suddenly appear, what would you do with those babies?” “Take them with me out of harm’s ‘way,” replied Mrs. Grebe promptly. "fut you couldn’t do that!” “cried Peter. “What is the reason I couldn't?” de- manded Mrs. Grebe. ‘This was too much for Peter. “Well, I don't see how you could,” sald he rather lamely. ° Mrs. Grebe chuckled. “It's the eas- BY THORNTON W. BURGESS glanced over her shoulder. All the bables were hidden under the feathers. She looked over at Peter. Then, with- out a word, she dived in that sudden way a Grebe has. Peter gasped. He wondergd what would happen to those bables. A moment later he saw Mrs. Grebe come up on the other side of the Smiling Pool. She swam back to Where Peter was. “Where are your babies?” gasped Peter. Pirst one little head, and then an- other appeared, as if in answer to Peter's question. ‘The babies did not seem at all surprised at what had hap- “Did—you take them with all that mu’:?:e under water?” dem,‘::ded T, Peter. ‘;genl.lnly," replied Mrs. Grebe. “Why not?” “But—but—" Peter didn't know what to say. It seemed to him that this was the most remarkable family he had ever seen. It was just as if Mrs. Grebe had pockets and had carried her babies in those pockets while she swam under water. She chuckled as she watched the expression on Peter's face. “You know,” said she, “we are a diving family.” “I should say so!” exclaimed Peter. “It really is nothing at all,” said Mrs. Grebe, “to swim under water. I be- lieve in teaching children at an early age what they must know when they grow up. Now these babies of mine are no more abraid under water than they are above water, If I couldn't carry them with me under water, what chance would they have to to live to grow up.” Peter shook his head. “I don't know,” said he. “They certainly are most surprising bables. I never was more surprised in my life. It is cer- tainly very nice for them. Do you al- ways carry them that way under water when you dive?” ‘The eyes of Mrs. Grebe twinkled. “Not always just that way,” said she. “Per- haps some day I'll show you how I take them another way. I see Dipper over there now and I really think he ought to have a look at his children. Good-by, Peter.” Again she dived and when she came up, she was right beside Dipper. Al- most at once the babies slid from her fest thing in the world,” said she.
