No, In this section there were not many towns and those towns which there were hsd In them but few peo ple. It wss very, very far north. It was becoming chilly. But the heifer wandered and wandered and before long ahe fe lt very tired and very lonely. Ab y e * adventures were all very well but when It became chilly and night came along it was nice to have a nice lot o f friends and relatives and members o f the fam ily about. And the heifer began to feel quite sad. In the distance ahe heard sounds— sounds which were fam iliar to her, talk which ahe un derstood. And she thought that she would go In the direction o f those sounds and listen. This silence about her wss beginning to make her quite nervous So sbe went In the direction o f the sound* even though she was tired, and even though she hated to walk any more, lint It would he worth the extra walk and the extra fin 'd feel ing If sbe could be where there would be companion* On and on she trudged, poor, weary young heifer that she was.

Everyone welcomed her. a little ahyly at drat, but she was w el comed. It was a Joy to the heifer to be welcomed.
