.41**, how very, vei v few
Think qnlcklv and h** quickly dn!
—Old Mother Nature.
Quirk Wits ami Quirk l-egs
Quick wils alone are not enough.
No, sir, they are not enough. In time
r.C danger it is useless to think quick
ly and then hesitate and be slow to
put into action the result of your
quick thinking. Quick thinking and
quick action must go together. Either
Is useless without the other. Of
course, you know' the old saving: “He
who hesitates is lost.’’ It is a. true
saying. If Peter Rabbit had hesitated
an instant when he was surprised by
Reddy Fox up there by .lohnny
chuck’s house he would have been
lost.
Rut Peter didn't hesitate. His wits
worked fast.They told him (hat there
wits just one way and only one way
of escape open to him and that was
Johnny Chuck's house. Never had he
been in there. He hadn’t expected
ever to go In there as long as Johnny
and Polly Chuck used it. They might
he very angry, and Peter knew that
ing so fast that he almost ran past
the entrance to that back hall- Just
In the nick of time he saw it and
turned into it. He knew it was the
bark hall because it slanted up,
which meant that it lead to the sur
face of the ground. Polly Chuck, stlil
saying spiteful things about a person
who would enter the house of other
people without being Invited, turned
Into the back hall, and Peter knew
that he must kepp on.
His heart began to beat a little
fosiei- as he saw just a wee lilt of
light up ahend and knew that i!
come through the doorway. Where
would he find himself when he came
out? Was Itcddy Fox waiting there
for him? Why couldn't Polly Chuck
he satisfied now and go back to her
bedroom? Then he could sit just In
side the doorway and make sure
(hat I he way was clear.
But it was clear that Polly Chuck
would not he satisfied until he was
out of her house. There was nothing
for It but to go out of that back door
as fast as his legs could take him
and I rust to fortune that he could
reach some other place of safety be
fore Reddy could catch him. Peter
drew a long breath and shot out Of
the back door of Johnny Chuck's
house Upperty-lipperty-lip, as fast as
those long legs of his could take him,
and his eyes rolled this way and that
way to see where he was and where
Reddy Fox was.

Students of Chinese developments
report that the vast and unwieldy
fabric of the old monarchy is in the
throes of a political awakening on
the part of a large group of its hun

which Is assimilating rapidly much

Johnny Chuck’s house.
he wag no match for an angry
Chuck, to say nothing of two angry
Chucks. Still he didn't hesitate. He
hounded forward and dived headfirst
into the long hall of Johnny Chuck's
house, and couldn't help grinning as
he thought of Reddy Fox and how
angry he would be. Peter knew that
Reddy hadn't once thought he, Peter,
would dare go into Johnny Chuck's
house with Johnny and Polly right
there.
lie heard Polly Chuck scrambling
down the hall behind him. lie heard
Johnny Chuck growling and snarling
and guessed that Johnny had turned
in his doorway to face Reddy Fox,
which was just what Johnny had
done. As he went further and further
toward the Chuck bedroom Peter
continued to think fast. Polly Chuck
behind him was saying things not
at all pleasant to listen to. She was
telling Peter just what she was going
to do to him when she caght him.
Peter knew that she could do just
what she s*ild she would do. Xo, it
wasn't at all pleasant to hear.
"There must he some hack hall
leading to a back door Somewhere,”
thought Peter. "Johnny and Polly
t'huck are too clever to have a home
with only one door. The thing to dd
is for me to find that and get out as
(luickly as possible before Reddy Fox
thinks of it. It msy be he knows
where it la. If he doe* and thinks of
It he will hurry over to It, for he will
guess that Polly Chuck will drive me
out that way. But if he doesn't know
where It Is, or doesn't think of It, 1
will have a chance to get away.”
So you, see Peter's wits were work
ing fast and his legs were working
just as fast, in fact, they were work
