That is good advice lor everyone, little and big. It. is one of the first things that Green Forest and Green Meadow people learn when they are very small. It has saved innny at them many times.

Orcr in the Green Forest, Buster Chuck. son of Johnny Chuck, was living in a rocky ledge. He felt very safe there. His home was quite deep down among the rocks. No one could get at limi without pul- ling apart and pulling over a great numbeiwof those rocks and stones, 'lIld there wasn't anyone he knew of who could do it. Great big Bust- er Bear had tried it. and didn't get very far. So while he was down in his snug bedroom. the young chuck fclt perfectly safe. It was only when he was outside that he had any real cause to worry. It was only then that he was in any real danger.

just inside his doorway and looked and listened before putting so much as his nose outside. At tirst he didnt notice anything unusual. Then he heard El sound such as he had never heard before. He could not tell just where it was coming from. It was more or less steady. It made him very curious. He pok- ed Just his nose outside. He could hear a little better then. It seem- ed to be mming from back at a big rock. That rock was between him and lhe big flat stone on which he delighted to take sun- baths. The strange sound stopped. The young chuck was tempted to leave his doorway and peek around that big rock. However, he didn't. Much as he wanted to do it, hel wouldn't until he knew for certain there was no danger.

The sound began again. It was a rather pleasant sound. The young chuck listened and wondered. He was hungry and wanted to gci out for his breakfast. To do this. he would have to pass close to that big rock from behind which that sound was coming.

He remained right where he was. Jolly. i-otind, bright Mr. Sun was shining his brightest. The young chuck Wanted more than ever to

At long last a, startling thin! happened. A big stranger leaped up on that big rock from behind which the sound had come. The young chuck backed hastily get out of sight, but he didn't Me so far that he couldn't.peep out and see this big stranger. He had big feet. His legs were fairly long. He had fierce yellow eyes. His face was almost round. He had a stub of 1 tall. As I tall, it really was s Joke. But short as it was, he kept twitching it.

Have you guessed who it was? It was Yowler the Bobcat. He had been lying down on the flat rock back or the one on which he was now standin He had been tak- ing I sunbat . and he had been purring. That waa' the sound the young -chuck had heard. t He had been purring to express his enjoy- ment of the warm sunshine.

Yowler yawned. He opened his mouth very wide. It showed all his sharp teeth. The young chuck shivered when he saw them.
