CHAPTER XIV.
x " The Barber-Shop Again.
Although Fatty Coon never could
get Jimmy Rabbit and his . brother
to phy barber-shop with him again,
Fatty saw no reason whv. lie should
jnot play the gam? without them. J
;o one day he Jt his brother
Blackie over to the old hollow syca
more. His sisters, Fluffy and Cutcy,
wanted to go. too. But Fatty would
"not let them. "Girls can't beAmr
bers," he said. And of course they
could find no answer to that.
As soon as Fatty and Blackie
, reached the old sycamore I am
sorry to vsay that a dispute arose.
Each of them wanted to use his own
tail for the barber's poie. They
- couldn't " both stick their tails
through the hole in the tree at the
same time. So they finally agreed
to take turns.
Playing barber-shop wasn't so
much fun as they had expected, be
cause nobody would come near to
" get his hair cut." You ste, t the,
smaller forest-peojJt were all afraid
to jO inside that old sycamore
.where Fatty ami Blackie were.
There was no tcying when the two
.brokers might get so hungry .they
Mould seize and eat a rabbit cu
squirrel or af chipmunk. And you
know it isn't wise to run any such
risk as that. '.
Fatty offered to cut BlacTcie's hair.
But Blackie remembered what his
mother had said when Fattyame
lome'with his moustache gon and
is head all rcuh and uneven. So
Blackie wouldn't let Fatty 'touch
him. But he offered to cut Fatty's
hair what there was left of it.
"No, thank you!" said Fatty. "I
only get my hair cut once a month."
Of course, he had never had his
hair cut xcept that once, in. his
? whole life,. i
V Now, since there. vai so little to
vdo inside the hollow tree, Fatty, and
.Blackie kept quarreling. Blackie
woufdno sooner stick his tail
through the hole in the side of the
tree . than ' Fatty would want his
turn. And when Fattji had suc
ceeded in squeezing his ' tail ' out
through .the opening Blackie would
. insist that' Fattys time was tip.
It was Fatty turn, and Blackie
was shouting to -him to stand aside
and give htm, a- chance.
'."1 won't!" said Fatty. "I'm going
to, stay litre' just as, long as . I
please."
The words were hardly out of his
mouth when he gave a sharp squeal,
as; if something hurt him. And he
' (ried to pull his tail out of the hole.
He wanted to get jt out now. But
alasl it would not come! It was
caimht fast! And the harder Fatty
fruited ths more it hurt him.
"Go, out and see what's th
ie mat-
terl" he Cried to Blackie.
But Blackie wouldn't stir. He

"It may be a bear that. has hold

somehow, that idea made- Fatty
tremble, all over, I
"Qh, dearl oh, dear." he wailed.
'What,shall I do? Ohl -whatever

Blackie. cried too.- - How Fatty

all hope of her helping. . ,
"Please, Mr. Bear, let ' go of my
tail!" he cried, when he could stand
Uhe pain no longer. . .'
The only answer' that -came , was
a low growl, which frightened Fatty
and Blackie more than ever. Apd
then, just ' as they both began - to
howl, at the top of ' their voices
Fatty's tail was suddenly freed. He
was pulling on, it so hardthat he
fell all in a heap on -the floor of
the barber-shop. , And that surprised

The Need of Enthusiasm.
It is much better to be too en
thusiastic than to bea 'dead one,
so far as enthusiasm is concerned.

what is going to lift you out of your

Enthusiasm is the spark which sets
off your explosive power.
There 1s more hopeful vision,
more confidence in, accomplishment.
f Enthusiasm means i better .. heart
action, good brain action, more abil

I'M THE GUY
I'M THE GUY who sits at your
desk to phone and. scrawls all over
important memoranda!
Well, what harm is there if I
amuse myself while I wait for my
number? If I didn't scribble, or draw
foolish pictures I'd ' probably be
bawling out the operator.
How did I know those scraps of
paper with almost illegible signs and
marks were memoranda that you
needed and wanted to keep?
tf they had been written out as
they should'have been, . I might have
read them instead of scratching all
aver them.
When you saw me about to sit
down ar-your desk, why didn't you
take your old notes, op why didn't
you tell me they were important?
Otherwisehow did you expect me
to know? - 1
You ought to leave a pad on youf
desk for me, and others like me who
try to improve their odd moments by
pushing a pen or a pencil.
You'd think I'd committed some
terrible crime from the way you talk
Your old memoranda don't amount
to anything anyway. You only think
they do. .
Don't waste youf breath on me,
I'm deaf.- And don't scowl at me, I
don't see you.. (
If you don't like it,' it's really too
bad, old dear.
