BURGESS PETER BABBIT REALLY WORKS HARD "Though Peter Rabbit is a shirk He's proved at last that he can work." THAT wasn't a very nice thing Jay to be saying, but it was true, and down in his heart Peter knew that it was true. So, as he couldn't say a word in reply, he just kept right on working, which shows that there is some wisdom in Peter's foolish little head after all. He was cutting his way out of the bramble-tangl- e on the edge of the Green Forest into the middle of which he had been driven by Reddy Fox. Of course he could have got out the same way he got in by wrig-gling and crawling between the close growing vines and brambles, but he had torn his clothes badly, and he smarted from many scratches. He didn't want any more, so he wisely decided to cut a path out. He heard Sammy Jay's taunt. Of course he did. Sammy meant that he should. The funny thing is that though it didn't seem a very nice thing for Sammy to be saying, it really was being done for Peter's own good. It was a part of a plan of some of Peter's friends to teach him how much better it is to work "If I only had had those paths all cut," thought Peter, than to shirk. To shirk, you know, Is to pretend to do a thing yet not do it Peter had pretended to be working very hard cutting paths through the old bramble-tangl- e so as to have a safe retreat in time of danger, but he had spent most of his time dreaming how fine it would be when all the paths were finished, instead of going ahead and cutting the paths. So Bobby Coon and Sam-my Jay and Unc' Billy Possum and a few more of Peter's friends had put their heads together and decid-ed that Peter needed a lesson for his own good; that he should be made to work. So Sammy Jay had told Reddy Fox how he could sur-prise Peter on the edge of the bramble-ta-ngle, and then had warned Pe-ter just In time for Peter to wriggle in among the brambles out of Red-dy- 's reach. But Peter didn't know this. He didn't know that Bobby Coon and Unc' Billy Possum had been watch-ing from the same tree on the edge of the Green Forest and had seen all that had happened. If, when he started to work, he could have seen them nudge each other and chuckle, it is doubtful if he would have guessed even then what they were laughing about But Peter didn't see them, and he didn't stop to say anything to Sam-my Jay. He was too busy. He was busy cutting away those vines and brambles as hard as ever he could so as to make a path, and at the same time he was doing a lot of thinking. "If I only had had those paths all cut I wouldn't have torn my clothes and got all scratched to pieces," thought Peter. "Of course I'm mighty thankful that I could get in here in spite of torn clothes, be-cause if I couldn't have, Reddy Fox would have caught poor little me." Snip, snap, snip snap! Peter's sharp front teeth were cutting off the stems of the vines and the bram-bles and the bushes close to the ground and the little path, which very very much like a little tunnel, through the bramble-tangle- , was growing longer and longer. And still Peter kept at work. He didn't even stop long enough to nibble at some of the tender young bark, and when Peter forgets to eat he is very much in earnest. In the first place, Peter was anxious to get home to the dear Old Brier Patch just as soon as it was safe to go, and to do that he must first cut his way out of the bramble-tangl- e or else tear his clothes and scratch himself some more. So he kept right at it. snip, snap, snip, snap. At last he was almost to the end He could see between the stems to the open Green Meadows and he was glad. A few minutes more and he would be on his way to the dear Old Brier Patch. And right then Peter short80"11"8 tha made him stop (Associated Newspapers-W- NU Service.)
