THE GRAY TRAP.
JIMMY COON loves to play, and he
knows a trap when he sees one, and
he is so clever that he even knows
how to be careful when he is not
quite sure. Too many of the little
animals have been caught in trsps,
and he has seen too much of the
world to be careless; but Jimmy
loved to play almost as much as he
loved to eat!
Now this soft gray thing he was
playing with, was hanging by a cord
to the branch of an old stump of a
tree. Jimmy was hitting it with his
paw so that it swung Harder. Teddy
Possum was trying to get his turn,

to give it a bat; but Jimmy called
out, “Look out, Teddy, this is one of
Farmer Jones’ worst traps, and if
you aren't careful you will be caught
in it.”
Little Peter Rabbit was sitting
straight up and trembling with ex
citement, for he thought every min-

We’re Off
Again
Full of cheer and that optimistic Amer
ican spirit.
Peace-time industries must soon be go
ing full swing—speeded up for delayed
peace necessities and luxuries, creating
a job for every home-coming fighter,
reabsorbing every loyal munition
worker.
Now’s the time. Start things going.
Buy what you need'. Start buying and
selling all along the line.
If you buy, you deplete the goods of
the merchant and he must buy, and he
in turn depletes the surplus stock of
the manufacturer, who thus is forced
to buy more raw materials, produce
more goods, employing more work
men.
BUY NOW—Start the ball a-rolling,
headed for prosperity. LET’S GO!
BUY NOW!

ute that trap would spring and
somebody would be c«ught.
Oh, what a good time they had!
After a while Jimmy let Teddy Pos
sum hit that soft gray thing and
■ make it swing. But Jimmy soon
found the hidden trap, and as he
jumped over it, he slapped It with
his little black hand.
By this time Cousin Bruin had
eaten all the nuts on the tree—with
the help of the Chipmunk and the
Squirrel families so he backed
down that tree, for he wanted to see
what all the fun was about, and what
all the jumping was for. “Well,”
i said Cousin Bruin, “I know just
' what that gray thing is, and I am
| going to make one bite of him, so
j get out of the way.”
“Look out, look out! that is a
trap,” called out Jimmy Coon, “and
you will be caught in it, Cousin
Bruin. I have a cousin who lost his
left hind foot in just such a trap!”
“I love Owls, anu that is an owl,”
said Cousin Bruin, as he stepped
backwards on to the ground, “so get
out of the way all of you and I will
get him, and I will also look out for
the trap. So Cousin Bruin drew
back, and with one blow of his mighty
paw he hit that gray owl; the .
string broke, and Cousin Bruin
caught that bunch of gray feathers J
and was just about to stuff it into
his mouth, when there was the most
awful noise you ever heard the
most dreadful smell! The trap had
been sprung, and a gun set there to
shoot Cousin Bruin, had gone off,
and the smell of the powder was
dreadful
But there was a sharp scream, too,
and what do you think that could
have been?
