Still—I'll bet he felt kinda sorry, too, when nothing ever hap- Pened about it, and the Indians mever came, and there sure enough was not any danger, but Just a scare.” “Oh, but there waa danger? Alice protested, “because only a ttle while after that the Indians did come “The settlers thought the In. @ians were going to quit their Stealing and killing, after that false alarm, and they didn't wateh #0 closely or guard 86 well. , “And that's just what the Mo- doce were waiting for. They want- ed the white people to get care leas, and they kept quiet and were Not troublesome for a while, “Then one fine day they came swooping down the valley and raided the whole thing. “They killed the cattle, and the settlers who were there had to Tun for their lives, “I don't know whether any peo- ple got killed or not—nobody ever told me. eer ADVENTURES . oF THE TW THE SEWING SOCIETY'S PICNIC lf Nancy and Nick, up in the, ‘Tree Flats, had only known where Tingaling was, and what « | Predicament he was in, they could E their Magical Oriole’s apartment, from which he! had fallen. | But they didn't know, so they| couldn't help him. He was in an/ awful plight, as you know, down! there in the blueberry patch in his) ty with the Woodland Sewing Society picnic folks aj! about him. | He hid the best he could behind a/ | blueberry plant, and shivered and because he was cold, but didn't wish to be seen large for him, the 1g way down over his liver’s nightcap was and waited and waited, jabout being seen. “But I know that my Uncle Jimmie had plenty to be afraid of, all right, and he was in a peck of trouble, because Grandma wrote it in her book.” THE END And now the Story Book Writer wants to say a word or two to you, Star Family, about the “true sign.” (*) In the beginning she thought most of the stories would have to be just makebelieves; but as she meets more and more pioneers she finds so many true stories that all of them that you have been read ing are true ones. And from this time on, if a story is a make-up, somebody will tell David and Pegsy about it. And if Peggy and David are told that it's a true story, you will know, too, that it is a true story. , So tf you have been keeping your stories, and have any doubts about whether they are real or not—real stories about real folks —I think you can count them all true from page 60 on. And before that, so that we shall be very sure, count only the onea with the “truth mark" as real happenings ree fo the picnic would break up and he could get away, He got tireder and | tireder, too, and became careless | Then suddenty | Miss Muskrat exclaimed, “Ob, look at the beautiful blossom over by tha blueberry bush. I'll have to put. o1 my specks and see what itis" | Tingaling froze with horror, for he knew what her sherp eyes had seen _ —the tasse} on his night-cap! There was no time to lose, Where | could he run? Where could he hide? Ah! The very place! The lunch | baskets were near him and « nice large roomy one stood invitingly | open, the goodies have been taken out and spread on the tabla Pop! Tingaling, the fairy landlord of Dear-Knows-Where, flopped into it and pulled down the lid! ¢ twing were tn- they met if he had seen Tingaling. Even the Magi-| cal Mushroom had decided he was, gone forever. (Copyright, 1920, N. E. A) BY THORNTON W. BURGESS ° os Billy Possum Visits ITTLE JOE OTTER and Billy!
