C, Bedtime Stories By THORNTON W. BURGESS. Jimmy Skunk ambled along the Crooked Little Path down the hill He didn’t hurry, because Jimmy doesn't believe in hurrying. The only time he ever hurries is when he sees a fat beetle trying to get out of sight. Then Jimmy does hurry. But just now he didn't see any fat beetles, although he was looking fpr them. So he just ambled along, as if he had all the time in the world, as indeed he had. He was feeling very good natured, was Jimmy Skunk. And why shouldn't he? There was everything to make him feel good natured. Mistress Spring had arrived to stay. On every side he heard glad voices. Little green leaves were begiuning to peep out of their brown blankets on the trees. Little green blades of grass were beginning to peep out of the brown earth. Bumble the Bee was humming a spring song. Best of all, Jimmy had found three beetles that very morning, and he knew that there were more if he could find them, So why shouldn’t he feel good? Jimmy had laughed at Peter Rabbit for being so anxious for Misstress Spring to arrive, but he was just as glad as Peter that she had come, although he wouldn’t have said so for the world. His sharp little eyes twinkled as he ambled along, and there wasn't much that they missed. As he walked he talked. quite to himself of course, because there was nobody near to hear. and this is what he was saying: Beetle, beetle, smooth and smug, You are nothing but a bug! Bugs were made for Skunks to eat, So come out from your retreat. “Hello! There’s a nice, big piece of bark over there that looks as if it ought to have a dozen fat beetles under it. It’s great fun to pull over pleces of bark and sce fat beetles run all ways at once. I'll just have to see what is under that piece.” Jimmy tiptoed softly over to the big piece of bark, and then as he made ready to turn it over he began again that foolish little verse. Beetle, beetle, smooth and smug, You are nothing but a bug! As he said the last word he sud- denly pulled the bark over. “Who's a bug?” asked a funny voice, and it sounded rather cross. Jimmy Skunk nearly tumbled over backward in surprise, and for a minute he couldn’t find his tongue. There, instead of the fat beetles he had been so sure of, sat Old Mr. Toad, and he didn't look at all pleased. “Who's & bug?” he repeated. Instead of answerifig, Jimmy Skunk began to laugh. “Who's a bug?” demanded Old Mr. Toad more crossly than before. “There isn’t any bug, Mr. Toad, and I beg your pardon,” replied Jiimmy, remembering his politeness. “I just thought there was. You see I didn’t know you were under that piece of bark. I hope you will ex- cuse me, Mr. Toad. Have you seen any fat beetles this morning?” “No,” said Old Mr. Toad, grumpily, and yawned and rubbed his eyes. “Why,” exclaimed Jimmy Skunk. “I believe you have just waked up!” “What if I have?” demanded Old Mr. Toad. . | “Oh, nothing; nothing at all, Mr. Toad,” replied Jimmy Skunk, “only you are the second one I've met this morning who has just waked up.” “Who was the other?” asked Old Mr. Toad. “Mr. Blacksnake,” replied Jimmy. “He inquired for you.” Old Mr. Toad turned quite pale. “I--I think I'll be moving along,” said he. POINTS FOR PARENTS| By EDYTH THOMAS WALLACE. Ingenious parents will find more effective ways of changing annoying ’teen-age practices than scolding about them. Mother: “Here's a three-minute egg timer. I'll put it here by the phone and let’s all limit our conver- sation over the phone to that time. Do you agree?” Mother: “You've simply got to stop those long-drawn-out phone canversations. That one lasted at least 10 minutes—and of all the silly gushing I ever heard ...” SONNYSAYINGS ‘Yes'm, I brushed my teeth, all but :éut loose one. It ain’t hardly worth !
