He is very clever at it, despite his bright blue coat. ‘The hunter and his dog turned away and went off through the Green Forest. Flip followed & little way, but soon turned back. Sammy Jay, however, kept on, keeping the hunter and his dog always in sight. Sammy knew what that terrible gun meant. He knew that if it should be pointed at him he might lose his life. So he kept his tongue still, but he used his eyes. Presently he saw that the hunter was going straight toward a certain place where Jumper the Hare was in the habit of spen much time. If that hunter should see Jumper and get a shot at him the Green Forest would see no more of Jumper. Now Sammy forgot all about Hi opened his mouth and began atzll “Thief! Thief! Thief!” shrieked Sam- my Jay. And he knew that every one ‘who heard it would know instantly that there was an enemy in the Green For- est. He knew that each one who heard it would at once be on guard. Of course, he meant the warning especially for_Jumper. Jumper the Hare had been dozing under a small hemlock tree. The in- stant Sammy Jay began to scream Jumper was very wide awake, indeed. His long ears stood up straight. His big soft eyes opened very wide. He knew that whatever the danger was it must be coming from the direction of Sammy Jay's voice. So he looked and listened. Presently he heard a rustling of leaves. Then he saw the hunter’s dog. Jumper didn’t know that that dog had been trained to look for birds only. To Jumper a dog was a dog and the greater the distance between him- self and any dog the better. So with great bounds away went Jumper the Hare. The hunter saw him, but he was too far away to shoot. He his dog hldh;lab frightened 24 had. .Already his chance to get Mrs. Grouse had been spoiled by Flip, and now his chance to get Jumper the Hare had been spoiled by Sammy Jay. The hunter was zrowxng angry. He muttered to himself as he tramped on through the Green Forest. %I)aily Cross-Word Puzzle THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, MONDAY, OCTOBER 28 1929.
