Billy Brighteyes is al- ways sorry to be absent from them, but he realizes that while Cousin El- eanor istrying hard to do good for the poor kid- dies of the Klub, he, Billy Bright- eyes, must step aside. Ho is glad to do it, too, be- cause BillyBright- eyes loves you kiddies quite as much as you love Billy Brighteyes. So you and he are ‘¥en. Since you last heard from Billy Brighteyes man) things have hap- Pened in the White Forest. Have you noticed that since winter begun Billy Brighteyes calls his wecdlung, the White Forest? In the summel Billy Brighteyes calls the woodland the Green Forest, but when winter Gomes, spreading ice and_snow over everything, Billy Brighteyes says the forest is no longer green—it is white. When the forest is white both field and woodland people find jt hard to et food. Almost all of them know this well, so before the first wintry Blasts sway the empty tree-top nests they have ulready collected as much winter stores as they believe they jl need. The long-tailed field mouse works hard throughout the autumn days. ‘You never saw such a larder as this enough, if ground, pa pudding; and nuts, real brown- ers, such as you would like to sit crack after dinner, with no end acorns. And these they conceal in nest underground, or »eneath he roots of trees, Last autumn ‘‘Perky,"’ the little field friend of Billy Brighteyes, de- to make his home near Farmer "s barn. So he dug himself a at the foot of an apple tree in he big orchard and filled it with food egainst the time when the forest should turn white. ‘Hore, near\the barnyard, I can get food from the igs and chickens in case my stores ran. out,” he told himself. Poor ‘Perky! Little did he know that the and chickens would be the ones to eat his fare. But so it turned out. Yesterday ‘Porky, the biggest, fattest, papa pig, ‘was rooting about under the very tree (where Perky had burjed his stores. Porky was searching to seo if he \wquld find a frozen apple or two under (the snow, when what should he dis- fined but Perky’s entire winter food ply. “Snort, snort, grunt, grunt,” said Porky. This meant that he thought himself in great luck, as he pro- lceeded to gobble down every bit that ‘he could find as fast as ever he could. in full sight of Perky, who had to a neighboring tree for shelter. the noise her husband was (making, Mrs. Porky came lumbering to partake of the feast, but her fond spouse would let her have only the ‘crumbs that fell from his plentiful jtable. Mrs. Porky in turn was fol- owed by the chickens, who picked up What she left, so that when they finally went back to the batnyard there was not a morsel nor a grain for poor Perky, the field mouse. ' |, Bad! Billy Brighteyes, alwoys generoys ‘arid good, hearing of Perky's plight, brought him a dinner of nuts and grain from his own store house, so for one day at least Perky was sup- piled. But T wonder what he will do for food to-morrow. Don't you? Perhaps Billy Brighteyes will write nd tell me. If he does, I'll tell you.

How graceful the branches of the willow swing In the gentle breezes of spring; ‘The branches of the willow are bud- ding out anew, ‘The blossoms and the grass are cov- ered with silver dew. The birds are singing while building thelr nests; Welcome to our hearts are springtime guests. those The humming of the thrifty bee I hear, Gathering honey from far and near, Fragrant are the blossoms of the Peach tree and the pe Foretelling of the fruit they to bear. ‘The pussies on the willows and the bees that hum and the birds that sing, All announcing the coming of spring. Summer. are going At last, at last, summer is hefe- The jolliest time in all the year! School is out for the summertime; Now for some fun with a fishing line, This is the time we can qlimb the trees Or lie on the grass with the greatest of ease. We go fishing and swimming, having all kinds of sport; Sometimes we play we are at a king's court After our play we go skipping away To climb the trees where the green boughs sway. Then we lie down on the grass to rest, So later we can do our best In the afternoon we go out for a swim, Diving off of a broken limb. At last, at last, summer is here: The jolliest time in all the year! Autumn. The harvesters are gathering corn, fruit and hay, The birds are flying to a warmer country, far, far away. For soon the cold winds will blow, Bringing with them frost and snow. The apples in the orchard turned mel- low one by one, The harvesters are returning under the glow of the setting sun. The weather is getting colder just as it will be. Not long from now the first snow we shall see. ‘Those hills out yonder will be in use these coming days, ‘They will furnfsh coasting for the youngsters with their sleighs. The leaves on the trees turned from green to red and brown. They are falling to the ground, mak- ing a rustling sound. The birds are flying down the lane, Flying to a warmer country, but In the spring they will return again, HERBERT 8. ZIM/ January, 1920 HOW TO JOIN THE KLUB.
