He knew that up in the back part of the Old Pasture was a place ‘where blackberries and raspberries, not to mention blueberries, grew. He meant to have his share of those berries and 30 he kept an eye on them. He knew ‘when they began to ripen and he knew, 100, that others knew when they began to ripen. You see, two or three times he had just in time discovered Mother Bear and his father, Buster Bear, look- ing the berries over. He was a stranger now to both. Bears believe that the young should respect their elders. Cubby knew this. So always, as soon as | he discovered either Mother Bear or Buster Bear, he would hurry away. But at last the berries were ripe. Yes, sir, the berries were ripe. It seemed as if everybody knew it. It seemed as if always there was somebody | around those berry bushes, Two or three times when Cubby got there, even ‘though it was very early in the morn- of Cubby Bear to be forgetful at such a time as that. He might have known that Buster Bear would be sure to visit that berry patch. He should have been on the watch for him. But after he once got into those berries, he forgot everything else. Cubby was just scoop- ing some particularly big berries into his mouth. when there was an angry “Woof! Woof!” right at his heels. Cubby didn’t even stop to look over his shoulder. He just made one wild plunge straight ahead. Now there ‘wasn't any path straight ahead. Cubby plunged head first into a great mass of blackberry vines, and blackberry vines, as you know. are covered with sharp thorns. Such a thrashing and plunging and squealing as there was! “Woof, woof!” said big Buster Bear once more. And Cubby plunged and | struggled ahead. At last he was out of those blackberry vines, and how he did take to his heels then. And such a looking Bear! His coat was torn and his face was scratched. Yes, indeed. his face was scratched as it had never been scratched before. But, queerly enough.
