One who lutepa busy has no time for loneliness. "Mrs.. Quack may not know how she knew It waa time for them to be off. but .aha did know," thought Paddy. "I sup- poaa It was just a feeling, juat aa I havo a feeling that we are to have a lonr. hard, cold winter. I know it, but I don't know how I know It In Just" the same way Mr. and Mrs. Quack know that cold weather will soon be here and that it wouldn't have been wise for them to atay any longer. "If fh Quacks are right, and I don't doubt it In the least, I cannot afford to waste any time. That food pile of mine lan't big enough to..aoit jtmJt.would do , for an ordinary winter, but not for an aatra long on. One kf these mornings I'll wake up and find that Jack Frost has covered my pond with ice. Then thera will be no chance to add to my food pile." So paddy cut down another poplar tree and all that day he worked with might and jnaln to trim off tha branches and out the trunks into loga and gt them over to hla food pile out In the middle of his pond. Ha was too busy to talk with Lightfoot tha Deer. He waa too busy to talk with Bobby Coon. He waa too busy to mora than nod to Blacky the Crow. And when Peter Rabbit appeared and triad to satisfy hla curiosity by asking questions Paddy waa ao busy he pretend ad ha didn't know Peter was thera Lata that afternoon while Paddy was taking a log over to sink in hla food pile ha heard a sound, that caused him to Stop swimming and listen eagerly. A look of pleasure swept over his face and for tha time being Paddy forgot he was busy. "Honk. k'honk, honk. honk, k honk. honk." Thera was but one voice Ilka that and Paddy looked eagerly up in tha aky toward the North. 80 did.Pater Rabbit alttlng on tha shore, so did Lightfoot tha Deer. So did Bobby Coon, did Blacky the Crow. "Honk, k'honk, honk. honk, k'honk. k'honk, honk, honk." It seemed that that voire was coming down from an empty sky. It waa Blacky'a keen eyea that first Saw two lines of tiny specks meeting In tha form of the'lettor V high up In the Sky toward the north. "I aee them !" he IME STORIES asu't Lonesome "They are going to stop!". They are coins to stop!" shrieked Blacky. cried. "I aee them! They are flying high and I wonder If they will stop here?" Blacky flew to the top of a tall er tree, that he might see better. For a while ail remained quiet listen ing and watching. "Honk, k honk, honk, honk, k'honk. honk, honk, k'honk." Every minute It became louder and clearer. Soon even Taddy, whose eyes are not ven good, could see those wedge-shaped lines, for they were now much lower and nearer. "They are going to stop! They are going to stop !" shrieked Blacky. "Honk Is leading the way down !" Sure enough the leader had turned and waa now. slanting downward straight to ward Paddy's pond and behind him his followers did the same thing. Down. down, dowh they came, twelve great blrda with brjad wings and long necks, and a few ntnutea later they sent the water of Tajiy'a pond flying in silvery drops as they landed on the pond. It was Honker the Goose and his flock. atraignt ""om the Far North. And this is why Paddy the Beaver had no chance to be lonesome. The ojiacks had left lnLthe morning and here were Honker the.Goose and his flock with the latest news from the. Far North. (Copyright. 193ifrr T. W.
