When you're In a nlaco that'a fight
Grit your teoth: resolve to fight.
—Bobby Coon.
Bobby Coon Is Awakened.
Just about daybreak Bobby Coon
went to sleep under the big pile of
brush where he had hidden. Even
those who are in great pain some
times can sleep. Bobby was so used
up that, in spite of his aching leg,
he went to sleep. Not far away Peter
Babbit also was taking a nap. Peter
had hidden in a hollow log that was
open at both ends. Peter learned
long ago that it isn't safe to hide in a
hollow log unless it is open at both
ends. He hadn’t intended to go to
sleep. He had hidden there so as to
watch that pile of brush. Some one
had given him a dreadful fright there
and he wanted to know who it was.
Peter was awakened by a familiar
sound. His eyes flew open. It was
broad daylight. It was a beautiful'
October morning. He pricked up his
long ears. He heard that sound
again.
“Bowser the Hound!’’ exclaimed
Peter. "I wonder what he is doing
over here. I wonder who he is follow
ing. They are not my tracks he is
following. I can tell by the way he
“Bowser the Hound!” exclaimed
Peter.
barks. I guess the wisest thing for
me to do is to stay right here. Even
if he should find me in this old log
he couldn't get at me."
Now at just about this same time
Bobby Coon under the brush pile
awoke. He had heard Bowser's voice.
He listened anxiously. There it was
again, a little nearer and a little
louder. Bobby knew whose trail Bow
ser was following with that wonder
ful nose of his.
"Its my trail,” thought Bobby and
fear once more filled his heart. "It
la my trail. He'll find me under this
pile of brush. I can't run. I've got
to stay here. I can’t climb a tree
with this dreadful trap on my foot.
And I can’t run with it. I can't even
fight very well. Perhaps he won't
try to get In under here. Oh, dear'
Oh, dear. If he does get under here he
will make an end of me. Ouch”
Bobby had moved that paw on which
the little can held fast, and it had
hurt.
Nearer and nearer sounded Bow
ser's great voice. There was no doubt
about it now', he was following Bob
by Coon's trail. "Bow, wow, wow,
wow!” rang Bowser’s great voice
through the Green Forest. Now and
then he would lose the trail, and have
to hunt and hunt for it. Rut always
he found It agstn and drew nearer
and nearer to Bobby Coon's hiding
place.
At last he reached the little open
ing yvhere Bobby had crawled In un
der the brush. His nose told him
that Bobby yvas under there. My, how
excited Bowser became! His voice
changed. When he had been following
the trail he had barked In a way
that is called baying. Those barks
were long, deep, musical basks. Noyy
his barks were short, sharp and fast.
He was greatly excited. He began to
dig at that little opening under the
the brush to make It bigger. He would
try to crawl In, then he -would back
out and dig a little more. All the time
he kept barking as If he wpre trying
to bark his head off. Poor Bobby
Coon! He felt that the end was very
near now. And then he heard another
voice. It was the voice of one of those
two-legged creatures, whom Bobby
feared more than all the others. He
was sure now that there was no
hope. You see he didn't recognize
that voice. But Peter did. Peter knew
that it was Farmer Brown's Boy.
(Ccpyrtsht. 1924)
Beatrice—Joseph Dell, farmer, near
Rockford, received a badly fractured
hip and painful bruises about the
body when the limb of a tree fell
