He had been in ascrapes from which it had looked as if there were no way out, but never had he felt more in despair than now. ‘What was the matter? Why, his home had been destroyed right in mid-Win- ter. Snow and ice were everywhere. It was cold. Bitter cold, and the tree in which Chatterer had had one of the snuggest and most comfortable homes he had ever known had that day been cut down by Farmer Brown and Farmer Brown's Boy, Now when that tree was cut down Bedtime Stories Thoughtfulness. Farmer Brown's Boy did not know that Chatterer was living in it. He did not know that in the Fall Chat- terer had moved up there from an- other tree farther in the Green For- est. Had he known it, he probably would have persuaded his father not to cut that tree, for Farmer Brown's Boy has a tender heart and would not for the world knowingly do anything to harm his neighbors in feathers and fur, But he didn’t know until the tree crashed and split open. Then, of course, he discovered the comfortable bed that Chatterer had had in the hollow in that tree. Now Farmer Brown's boy wasn’t certain that it was Chatterer who had been living there, but he guessed that it was. You cee, that bed was made of materials that he knew Chatterer WAR ON CRIME— Murder in the Dark! GET OUT o nlar CAR,sum( (Y 11v LITTLE ORPHAN ANNIE.

Now what will the poor little chap do? If he was living here he must have stored a lot of food somewhere in this neighborhood. That means that if he has to make his home some distance away he is going to be hard put to it to get enough to eat, especially in bad weather. I really ought to do something about it. Yes, sir, I really ought to do something about it.” As he and his father worked cut- ting up that tree he kept his eyes open for the owner of that destroysd home, but Chatterer didn’t show him- self. In fact, Chatterer did not return. You know he had gone to his old home, the home he had left when he had traded with Spooky the Screech Owl for this home. Chatterer had found that that tree also had been cut down. You see, both trees were partly dead, and this was why they had been cut. They had been cut for | had also been destroyed.

He probably ‘wouldn’t be very warm, because there would be no soft bed into which to snuggle down. “It's the best I can do,” he mut- tered. “I don’t know where else to go now. I just don't dare stay out after dark, but, oh dear, where am I going to find enough to eat? I suppose I'll have to find new storehouses near wherever I make my home and then carry to them the nuts and acorns frum the storehouses in which they now are. It's going to be a dreadful job, but I don’t see what else X can do : Chatterer found an empty home of Drummer the Woodpecker, and in it he spent a most uncomfortabie night. He was up and out just as soon as it was light enough the next morning. He hurried over to his storehouses, He had a queer feeling as he came in sight of the place where that tree had stood. It had been cut into pieces and these had been neatly piled. P 4 =—— IT HAD BEEN CUT INTO PIECES AND THESE HAD BEEN NEATLY PILED, He had to find shelter.

Chatterer wondered what had become of his splendid bed he had had in a snug hollow in that tree, and as he was wondering his sharp eyes caught sight of something that caused him to give a little gasp of surprise. In a tree close by was a birdhouse that never had been there before, and hanging from the doorway was some- thing that looked very much like & part of Chatterer's bed. It was. Farmer Brown's Boy had put up that house and pit Chatterer's bed in it, hoping that he would find it and re- turn, (Copyrisht, 1936, Goes to Piedmont College. DEMOSEST, Ga., September 21 P).—Dr. C.
