Unc’ Billy Possum was safe and he knew it. He was on a beam underneath Farmer Brown's barn, safe from Flip. “All Ah has to do now,” sald Unc’ Billy to himself, “is to stay right here until that silly dog done grow tired of hear- ing his own voice. Then he'll go away and Ah'll do the same thing.” This is just what happened. Flip did grow tired. He would leave Unc' Billy and go out to see if Farmer Brown's Boy was coming. Then he would go back and bark some more. Farmer Brown's Boy had no intention of crawling un- der that barn, so Unc’ Billy curled up and took a nap and finally Flip gave up. Unc’ Billy was wise enough to remain right where he was all the rest of that day. Two or three times Flip came back to see if he was still there. He was, but he showen;n:m sflls‘ns of life, so Flip speedily lost erest. X% ng just after dark that Unc’ Billy ked his sharp nose out from under he barn. A sharp, shrewd little face has Unc' Billy Possum. Unc' Billy looked this way and that way. He saw no one and he was sure that no one saw him. He stole along up to the door that the cows used. It was ajar. He poked his nose inside and pushed it o] a little more. Then he slipped wholly in- side. Unc’ Billy grinned. It was & long time since yesterday. He made his way along to the stairs that led up to the haymow. He went up. He knew he was safe now. He knew that he could hide under that hay anywhere. He didn’t have the least bit of worry about eggs up in here now,” though Unc’ Billy. “Ah reckon Ah'll have a good look anyhow. Mah goodness, wouldn't Ah like some nice aigs!” Now, it happened that one of Farmer Brown's pullets was laying up in the haymow and Farmer Brown's Boy didn't know it. No, sir, he hadn’t discovered that that pullet was slip- ping away every day when the hens were let out in the yard. But that is what she was doing. In the hay up in & corner of the mow she had already laid seven nice eggs. Unc' Billy found them. You should have seen the grin on the old :ascal's face when he dis- covered those seven eggs. He couldn't think of a single thing that he wanted more than he wanted eggs. He wouldn't have traded those eggs for a fat chicken, and that is saying a good deal. So it was that up there in the haymow Unc’ Billy Possum had a feast. Yes, sir, he had a feast. It was the best dinner he had had for a long time and he was perfectly happy. It didn’t occur to Unc' Billy that he was stealing those eggs. To his mind, he wasn't stealing them at all. He felt that they were his by right because he was smart enough to find them. So his conscience didn’t trouble him the least bit when he ate those seven eggs. But, having eaten the eggs, he suddenly de- cided that, in spite of the fact that he had slept all day, he would take another nap. He had too full a stomach to be traveling around. So he poked around in the hay until he finally found just the place that suited him and then he curled up there, “Ah reckon this would be a good place to spend the Winter,” muttered Unc’ Billy. “Yes, sah, Ah reckon this d be a good place to spend the MEET US AT THIS VERY SPOT— IN “THIS PAPER EVERY DAY AND WE'LL CARRY YOU ON THE ADVENTURE OF YOUR LIVES / (©1919 - ARAMOUNT FEATURES SYNDICATE: WHAT ARE We GONNA EAT FoR THANKSGIVING sy BUO FisHEs A Bird’s a Bird.
