If I could get that little brown rascal over here to the I house, thought the farmer, would soon be rid of those pesky rats. But how am I going to do it? If he doesnt know that those rats are over here he certainly will not venture any nearer to the house . than that woodpile. And if he cannot get into the henhouse to steal my chickens he wont stay around here very long because he will have little to eat. The thing for me to do is to see that he has plenty to eat and learns where it comes from. So the very first thing the farmer did the next morning was to put some scraps of fresh meat just outside the woodpile. It didnt take Billy Mink long to find them. Of course the farmer was out of sight. He was in the barn peeping through a crack. He saw Billy come out from under the wood and sniff at the pieces of meat. It was clear that Billy was suspicious. He went all around those scraps of meat and the farmer could tell by the way he moved that Billy suspected a trap. But Billy found no trap. Of course not, because there was no trap. At last he ventured to seize one of those scraps of meat and darted back into the woodpile with it. A few minutes later he was out again just as cautious as before. So, one by one, he took the scraps of meat under the woodpile. The farmer smiled as he saw the last scrap disappear. He knew that Billy had enough for a good meal, and that with a stomach well filled he would probably take a nap. This is just what Billy did. Before he fell asleep he kept wondering about those scraps of meat and how they happened to be so handy. ' Its funny, thought Billy, how that meat happened to be right there. I wonder if that, farmer could have dropped it. If he did, I hope hell do it again. With this, Billy went to sleep. - : -- ,- twin-engin- ed PAPA KNCWS- -I Just at dusk Billy awoke. He, was hungry again. He began to think of those hens over in the henhouse. Then he remembered the trap he had found over there and decided he would keep away from the henhouse. He decided that he would go over to the barn to see if any of those rats' had returned. And then all of a sudden he remembered that easy breakfast he had had that morning.

WHY IS PSYCHOLOGISTS have come to the conclusion that difficulty in making up ones mind is usually due to lack of This lack may not be known to the person himself, and' may be entirely subconscious, but it functions to produce indecision whenever there are several choices and one thing must be selected from the rest. He wants some advice, or wants to show it to someone else before he makes up his mind. He has. an inner feeling that he is not intelligent enough experienced enough, or does not have enough good taste, or something else, to make the choice alone. Such people have to be told by others what they should do; then they feel satisfied especially if the other person advises the choice they themselves really liked best.
