All the rest ' of his family had gone south be- fore winter had set in. but some- how Lnnglegs hadn't wanted to leave. He and Rattles were rivals in some extent. You see. Long- legs could fish only where the water was not deep. Sometimes Rattles would be sitting on a ranch of a tree watching the aier for a fish. and right below . im Longlegs would be standing in the water up to his knees also watching for a fish. if a fish swam is within reach of the long neck and bill of Longlegs. it would be caught before Rattles would have a chance to dive for it. That al- ways provoked Rattles. He would rattle angrily. "This is my fish-

ing place. Why don't you go find a place for yourself? I chose this place first." he cried. Longlegs took no notice.

Again a small fish would swim in just out of reach of Longlegs. Rattles would shoot down and catch that fish. sometimes so near to Longlegs that he would al- most splash the water in his face. That always provoked the big Heron. "That was my fish!" he would protest. "It was swimming right into me."

To this Rattles would pay no attention. but would fly up to his perch. and there swallow the fish head-first. All that Longiegs could do was to watch. It was very provoking, especially when Long- legs was having no luck.

This morning, Rattles was pay- ing no attention to fishing. He was too uneasy to think of fish- ing. When Longlegs arrived- ed he also gave little attention to fishing.

"Do you feel it. too?" asked Rattles. leaning over to look down at Longlegs.

"What are you talking about?" croaked Longiegs.

"The feeling," replied Rattles. just as if he thought that was all that was necessary.

"What feeling?" croaked the big Heron.

"The feeling that something is going to happen." replied Rattles.

"Now you speak of it, I do. I have felt it ever since last night. It must he the weather." said Longlegs.

"The weather isnit had." said

"How do you know what kind
