Were it not true, eyes would be of little use. Yet cyes sometimes are deceived. n, just the opposite is true; eyes see correctly, but the thing they is so strange that their possessor refuses to believe them, In short, he doubts his own eyes. Just this thing happened to Danny Meadow Mouse. Danny had climbed up a tall mul- lein stalk to reach the surface of the snow that covered the Green Meadows. He had it in mind to run about a bit in the moonlight and perhaps gather a few seeds from the top of weeds that stood above the snow. He often did ths, for in this way it was easy to get plenty to It was much caster than climbing those tall weeds when there was no snow, But it was risky Yes, sir, it was risky. No one knew this better than did Danny. Under the snow, especially when it was crusted over, he was quite safe. He could go and come almost as he pleased ,in the little tunnels he had made along the surface of the ground, There his sharpest-eyed enemics could not see him, while on the surface of the white snow he could easily be seen from quite a distance, So now Danny was very, very careful He had made a little round hole to that tall stalk, and when he feached this he stopped. Very slowly and cautiously he pok- ed just enough of his héad out to allow his bright little eyes to look all around in ¢very direction. There he remained, looking and looking, Reddy Fox might be somewhere about, Hooty the Great Horned Owl or little Sooky the Screech Owl might be silently flying overhead, ready to drop on a careless Mouse. He saw nothing to cause him alarm, and had just about made up his mind to climb out when a shadow drifted across the white snow just a little way off. Danny didn't need to look up to find out who made that shadow. It was the shadow of a bird with broad wings, Danny held his breath and didn't move so much as a whisker. "Hooty the Owl!" he exclaimed under his breath. "It is lucky for me that I saw that shadow when I did. Just a wee minute more and I would have been out there. Well, see close ciety to the Presbyterial meeting in Bowmanville last week, read an intensely interesting report oi the highlights of the convention. The devotional period was in charge of Mrs. Minaker. Mrs, Cur- rell told the story of the chapter of the book on Korea, that was agsigned for this month. A beau- toiful solo was sung by Mrs. Stuart Alger. Mrs. Albert Wilson gave two readings, and the La- dies" Quartette rendered a nam- ber, During the business meeting the date of the Missionary Sun- day was set for April the third. EVER READY BIBLE CLASS | The Ever Ready Bible Class of Simcoe Street United Church met on Wednesday evening. A short nuginess session was in charge of the president, Mrs, W, E. Snow- den and at its conclusion, Miss Ksther Hawley's group took charge of the programme, when Mis# Higginbottom gave a read- ing, Miss Alice Harston rendered a solo and Mrs. Forrester played a violin solo, Miss Grace Jack- son was the speaker of the even- ing and told many interesting facts about her work in the city with the Associated Welfare So- cleties, LADIES' Popular Style All Sizes Company Ltd. OSHAWA W. Burgess Green Forest best." Danny remained just where he was, not moving so much as a whisker, In a few minutes that shadow returned and the maker of it 'alighted on a fence post just a little way from Danny, and back to him. As Danny saw those broad wings he hadn't a doubt that they belonged to Hooty. But when those big wings were folded and their owner stood on the top of the post, Danny just simply ducked down and rubbed his eyes. There must be something . thc matter with them. More than once he had seen Hooty on that very post. He was big and so straight that he looked to be a part of the post itself. His legs were hidden by feathers, and of his feet only the great cruel claws grasping the top of the post could be seen. From opposite sides of the top of his big round head two little tufts of feathers stood up like two little horns, Oh, Danny knew Hooty when he saw hin. At least he thought he did. Jut if this were Hooty on the post, now something was wrong, He didn't stand straight like a part of the post, but more as Blacky the Crow might stand if leaning slightly forward. He was hump-shouldered. There were no tufts of feathers on his head. His feet were armed with great crucl claws, but they were not hidden by feathers, nor were his legs. And such legs! Danny hadn't supposed that any member of the Owl family gould boast such long legs. It was no wonder that he rubbed his eves. Ie was sure that somcthing must be the matter with th Very, very cautiously he peeped out again. The stranger had turned, and such a face as Danny saw! Never had he dreamed of such a face! It was of two great feathered disks from which glared a pair of fierce eyes just above a hooked bill, That face seemed to Danny like a bad dream, and once more he duck- ed down fo rub his eyes.
