They visited Port Madison and Suquamish and In dianola, They saw Chief Seattle's grave and heard many stories. y) fs the one David liked best, be cause it is about a little boy who ia still a boy, and about real In dians who live over there right now. (And tt's pretty wonderful, isn't it, to live in a big city and be able to take so short a trip to find Indians and forests?) Tt happened not long after pro hibition went into effect. One of the thingy the old In dians hated about the White Man was (whisky) to the Indians. It made them so much more crue} and wicked, and it was hard er for good chiefs to control the young men when they were #0 often drunk with White Man's whisky. All dewn the years, from | earliest pioneer days ‘till now, when ft is against the law to buy it or make It. the Indian has been wild for whisky. And that is what the story is about. In a little store across the sound, not far from the reserva tion, a little boy had been left alone; not a baby boy, of course. He was big enough to wait on the people who came to buy, for usually they bought just things in packages—oat meal or crackers or canned milk or a loaf of bread, which they had forgotten to buy A LATTER DAY PIONEER And this | the bringing of firewater | earlier.

Mra Muncie Mouse was the Washer and troner for all the flats, too, so between them they made a very good living. It was very convenient for the @wellers in Maple-Tree Apartments to have the Mouses so near, and to| make things still nicer, a little dumb- walter (elevator) ran up and down Inside the tree. which carried gar- bage cans and laundry baskets, and furniture when folks were moving in_or out.

The truth is, Reddy Fox had s0 many times fdoled Bowser the Hound and Farmer Brown's Boy that he had begun to think himself very smart, indeed. He had really fooled himself. He thought himself so smart that nobody could fool him. Now, it is @ bad habit, a very ba’ |henhouse for eggs any more for fear} pabit, to think too much of one’s reif. It is one of the worst habits in the world. And Reddy Fox had the habit. Oh, my, yes! Reddy Fox cer tainly did have the habit!
