BURGESS. Bobby Coon, curled up in his | warm house in_the hollow chestnut tree in the Gleen Forest, opened | his eyes and yawned. Bobby had | been asleep a long time, a very long | time. In fact, he had slept most of | | the winter. Once or twice he had | | waked and crawled out to stretch | his legs on warm days, but there | had been very few warm days, and | | so Bobby had been content to sleep and sleep and sleep. | Now, as he lay there yawning and looking up at a sunbeam which had crept in at his open door, he won- dered if it was worth while to crawl out to have a look about. “I sup- pose it's just another warm day in the middle of winter, and if I crawl out I'll just be uncomfortable | and shivery,” he thought. “I might | | as well stay right where I am and | keep comfortable.” | You see. Bobby Coon had slept so | much that he dion't have any idea | how time had been flying. So now | | he just closed his eyes again and | | tried to go to sleep. But somehow | he couldn't get to sleep. That sun- ! beam seemed to be trying to tell | him that it was time to be up and | jout. “Go away!” said Bobby crossly, | and rolled over so as not to see that warm, bright, merry little sunbeam | But then something else began to tell him that it was time to get up. It was his stomach. Yes, sir, his stomach began to tell him that it was time to get up, and he just had to listen. Shutting his eyes and roll- ing gver wouldn't keep his stomach still. No. indeed! The truth is, there isn't anything that will keep an emp'y stomach still, Now, when Bobby Coon had be- gun his long sleep he had been very very fat. All through the fall, when there was plenty of food and to spare, Bobby had stuffed and stuff- ed himself until he was so fat that he could hardly run at all. He didn’t know why he had stuffed so | except that evervthing tasted so | good, but if he had taken the trou- ble to ask Old Mother Nature about it she would have told him that she had given him that great ap- petite so that he would get fat and that while he slept through the cold, cold weather that fat would keep him warm and would take the place of food, because while he was asleep. of course, he couldn't eat And that is just the way it all happened. But now that fat had been used up. just exactly how, nobody knows. for that is one of Old Mother Nature’s secrets. But it had, and this is why Bobby's stomach would give him no peace. Of course, this was Old Mother Nature's way of telling Bobby that it was time to get up, that she had taken care of him all winter, and now he had to get out and take care of himself But Booby didn't know this. All he knew was that he was dread- fully hungry and at the same time he hated to think of going out into the cold to hunt for food and he Jjust knew would be hard to find So, he twisted and turned and | rolled over uneasily, trying to for- get that inviting little sunbeam and to think that he wasn't dread- fully hungry. He muttered and grumbled to himself and was as uncomfortable as could be. And then quite suddenly he stopped muttering and grumbling and lay perfectly still, with both little ears cocked wide open. He had heard something. At least he thought he had, and he wanted to make sure. So he lay and listened and listened. and after a little while he heard it again—the softest, sweet- est whistle. “Winsome Bluebird!” cried Bobby Coon. “It is time to get up after all. for Mistress Spring is almost here!” He kicked off his bedclothes of leaves and scrambled up to his . A dozen warm. merry little sunbeams shone straight in | his face and made him blink so that at first he could hardly see at all “Hello, old lazybones! It's time vou were up. Don't you know that Mistress Spring is almost here?” Bobby looked down. There at the foot of the big chestnut tree sat Peter Rabbit grinning up at| him. And while he looked he heard | again that soft, sweet whistle. And then Booby knew for sure that the long. cold winter was over and that Peter Rabbit was right—it was time, high time, to get up.
