THORNTON W. BURGESS
THE WHITE HUNTER
A BOUT the time that Peter Rabbit
* *
had reached the Green Forest
that night after the first snow, a slim,
trim little fellow yawned, rubbed his
eyes, yawned again, stretched, and
then abruptly made up his mind that
he was hungry, and that It was time
to do some hunting. He scrambled
op to the doorway of his home, which
was In a snug hollow under the roots
of an old tree In the Green Forest,
and thrust his head out. The ground
was white; the trees were white;
everything was white. He smiled as
he sat there looking out at the white
world, and his smile was a crafty,
cruel, hungry, smile.
That white
world Just suited him.
It couldn’t
have suited him better. I f you had
been there when he made ills first
leap out into the snow you would have
understood right away why he was
so well pleased. His coat was as
white as the snow! He was all white
except the tip of bis tail, and that
was black.
It was Shadow the

more eager, none more tireless than
Shadow the Weasel. Reddy Fox and
Old klan Coyote and Hooty the Owl
hunt to fill their stomachs, and when
they have their stomachs full they
stop hunting. But Shadow .hunts for
the pure joy of hunting. When he
has killed as much as he can eat he
does not stop. Oh. my, no! He keeps
right on hunting. Ue Is like a great
many two-legged hunters. It Is for
this that he Is so feared and hated
by the little people of the Green For
est
Now as he bounded along In long
leaps there was a fierce Joy In hla
heart.
With everything white he
could be even bolder than usual, for
In his pure white coat not even the
wrathful eyes of Hooty the Owl, the
one enemy he really fcareit would be
likely to see him. It was very con
venient. that white coat.
He ran
swiftly with long bounds, stopping
only to investigate the old logs and
stumps and brush piles that he came
to. Each of these he examined very
carefully. There might be a Wood-
mouse hiding there, and Shadow Is too
good a hunter to be careless.
So presently he came to the tracks
of Peter Rabbit. For Just a second
Shadow smelled of the tracks with
his keen little nose, than which there
Is none keener. His eyes brightened
with eagerness. "H a !" said Shadow.
“He passed here not very long ago.
Nothing would or could suit me bet
ter for dinner than Peter Rabbit
This cold air makes me hungry. He
doesn’t know I ’m about; unless Red
dy Fox or Old Man Coyote happens
to give him a scare before I catch
up with him It ought not to be a long
chase."
It was well for Whltefoot the Wood-
mouse that Shadow had found Peter's
tracks after they left Whltefoot's
hiding place, instead of before. He
Is such a slim fellow that he could
have and would have slipped In at
the little doorway and made an end
of W hltefoot
Presently
Shadow
came to the place where Peter had
followed the tracks of Happy Jack
Squirrel.
"Hello!" exclaimed Shad
ow. “Has that fellow returned to the
Green Forest? I'll Just keep an eye
open for him hereafter.”
Then he paid no more attention to
Happy Jack's tracks, but kept right
on after Peter. Presently he came to
the tracks of Jimmy Skunk. He knew
right away whose tracks they were.
You know Jimmy Is a cousin to Shad
ow. When he saw those tracks he
scowled. He and Jimmy are not on
the best of terms. Besides, at first he
thought Jimmy was following Peter,
and that would upset hl*- plans. But
In a few minutes he saw that Peter
had been following Jimmy and that
made him easier in mind.
He felt
still better when Jimmy’s tracks end
ed at the hole under the old stump
where Jimmy had made his home for
the winter. Shadow snltTed at the
doorway and then showed all his
sharp teeth In an ugly snarl. “He’s
down In there and I ’m glad of that,"
he muttered, and then with longer
bounds than ever he kept on after
Peter.
