" T. Paer leaned hia burden in the t-or-nr,
removed his plaid cap and looked
down at the : stockings covering his
fptndling shanks modestly but wlUi a
sheepish grin, i J

Taer explained. "He's swore off play
in irolf any more.','
"fThat man's j always swearing about
-nomethinjj," Ma observed, so I guess
.e'd Just as well awear about golf as
anything else.":
'That's the way 1 happened to get the
outfit." T. Paer chuckled. 'Fergie's been
ncruffin' no much here lately he couldn't
make more'n nine holes in a day."
'Scruffine?" Ma repeated, "What does
tltat meanT'
'Soruffin'," T. Paer defined, ."is
-where ypu swing- at the ball 'nd dig up
tine green. It sure put Fcrgle out'n the
game.". .
"Why?" Ma asked curiously. "It ain't
against the rules is it?" , '
"Well." T. faer grinned, "the madder
Kergie gets the worse lie stutters, 'nd
. every time he'd scruff he'd stop to cuss."
'
; '"He's a awful .wicked man." Ma said,
"tout X don't see why he'd give up golf
l cause It was a little trouble for him
id swear., , '
!"Pecause," T. Paer told her. "it took
up so much time he couldn't get around,
hut the real reason was because someone
giiye him a rub of the green."
!"Pid ' they - put paint on him?" Ma
asked incredulously.
"So," T. Paer chortled, "Fergie was
Rtutterln 'nd some guy yelled 'fore1 'nd
then Toeaned him back of the ear."
f'Beaned him? What does that mean?'
Ma asked doubtfully.
"Walloped him on the dome with a
golf ball." T. Paer informed her. , "Fer
gie swore off right there."
"What are all them sticks In the 'sack
for?' Ma asked Interestedly. ,
Them's my clubs," T. P. answered
proudly. "Vou take the driver 'nd you

The Twins Get Even

rrpuiS is sad, but true. It 'is so every'
A where in the Great World, and the
Great World 'would be a much1 belter
Hace in which to live if it were not so.
It is the desire to get even that makes
much of the trouble and the hard feel
ing and the unhapplness everywhere.
Hut there are times when getting even
certainly does give a lot of satisfaction.
It was fiQ with. Buster Bear's twins,
Boxats and Woof -Woof.
iTou remember that the very first time
they ventured out from under the great
windfall deep in the Green Forest, where
they had been born, Peter Rabbit had
given them a great fright by thumping
the ground with his hind feet, as only
Peter can thump. The twins were so
pmall then.; and they knew so little of
the Great World in fact,- nothing at all
that Peter had seemed to them a
terrible fellow. They never had for
gotten him. Whenever they were out
side the great windfall they ' watched
for him,' ready to run .at sight of him.
j But It was a: long-time before they saw
Feter again, and when they did they
had grown so that they were consider
ably bigger than he. Besides, they had
been out on several trips into the Great
World w ith Mother Hear and had learned
many things, for little Bears learn very
fast.and have the best of memories. But,
at last, they saw Peter again. It hap
pened this way : , r
I Peter had stayed away from the Green
Forest as long as he could. Then cu-
riosity to seej what was going on over
there had been too much for him, and
he had started over to visit Paddy the
Beaver. -He took great care to keep
away from the great windfall, where
Mrsl Bear and the twins lived. As cu
rious as he was about those twins, and
much as he wanted to see them again, he
was too much afraid of Mrs. Bear and
her short temper to take any chances.
But he felt that it would be quite safe
to visit Paddy the Beaver, for Paddy's
pond was some distance from the great
windfall.'
i 'Now, Fcter didn't know that Mrs.
Boar was in the habit of taking the
twins with her wherever she went. So
it Just happened that that very day she
had chosen to go over near the pond of
Paddy the, Beaver. The twins had played
until fhey were tired, and then they had
curled up! for a nap in a sunny spot,
while their mother went fishing in the
Laucrhing Brook.
! When Peter arrived in sight In of
Paddy's , pond, Mrs. Bear was hidden
behind some brush a little way up the
Laughing Brook and was sitting quietly,
waiting for a fish to come within reach.
For once Peter was careless. He was

remarked frigidly, " 'nd you ain't going ;
to do any such thing." i
M nd you're talkin about different
things," T. Paer answered stiffly. "If
you don't tee off good," he continued, as
he exhibited a second club, 'nd you
think you can make a steal, you swat it
with thls'brassie 'nd then if you- roll
onto the rreen you gobble with this put
ter 'nd win your point." ,
"Gobbler Ma said, lit horror. Tull
look fine running around making a no toe
like a turkey."
'You don't make any noise "when you
gobble," jT. Paer contended, fit's only
when you don't that'you do.f ' -
"It don't sound very dignified, any
way," Ma objected". "I don't think I'd
like the game."
"It's a great game," ,'T. Taer insisted.
"If you baff when you try to steal nd
heel into the rough us drop into a. hazard
then yoa use your niblick to drive onto
the. fairway or use your sand iron to
loft over the bunker."
'
"Eo yo2"-Ma said absently, as she
hefted th lirtle fellow's" driver. "You're
not thinking of playing golf today, are
you ?'
"Sure." T. Paer answered uneasily.
"Today's a holiday, ain't it?"
"I was just thinking," Ma observed
sweetly,, "what a fine; carpet beater this
thing'd make."
"Carpet beafer?" T. Paer shrilled.
"Who ever heard of beatin' a carpet with
a golf club?"
"I don't know who did." Ma answered
firmly, "but our neighbbrs're going to
hear one being beat with one right after
breakfast."
"They ain't no use of me tryin' to do
like other fellahs," T. Paer grumbled.
"I get all togged out nd you put the
kibosh tin it." '
"You promised me last night," Ma re
minded him, "that you'd beat the sitting
room carpet this morning."
"All right, all right," T. Paer answered
testily, j "111 beat the blamed thing, but
it sure spoils my disposition when you
wait till I-get all dolled up and then
stymie me.". -
"Maybe," Ma admitted, "hut even that
isn't as bad as if I give you a rub, of
the green is it?"
With Peter Rabbit
With a squeal of fright, Peter
jumcd and started, lippcrty-Up-perty-llp,
for the nearest pile of
brush. . , "
that he didn't use his eyes and ears for
Other things, as he should have. Ko he
passed ;witain a few feet of the twins
without seeing, them, just beyond he
sat up to look over the pond for Paddy.
.Now, the twins slept each with an tar
open, as the saying is, and they heard
Peter pass. Open flew their eyes, and
they saw at once that it was the terri
ble fellow who had so frightened them
once. But. somehow, he no longer looked
terrible. He was smaller than they had
thought. In fact, they were now con
siderably bigger than he. You see, they
had been growing very fast. Boxer's
eyes twinkled. Perhaps this fellow was
like Chatterer the Red Suirrtl, bold
and terrible only to those' who feared
him. He nudged Woof -Woof. Very
softly they got to their feet and stole
up behind Peter.
A .twig- snapped under Boxer's feet
Peter turned. His eyes seemed to pop
right out of his head. With a squeal of
fright ' Peter jumped and started, lip-perty-lipperty-lip,
for the nearest pile of
brush, and after him raced the twins.
They knew now that this terrible fellow
was more afraid of them than ever they
had been of him, -and they meant to get
even fir the fright he had given them
when' they w;ere so little. It was great
fun.
