IHL USHAWA DAILY 1IMES, WEDUNESUAY, APRIL Y, 1930 ) Peter F inds Some Feathers By Thornton W. Burgess A very little thing, indeed, fo that for which your search may ~Peter Rabbit, it was two weeks since Peter Rab- bit visited the Smiling Pool, There had been many other things to take up his attention. ale had been so disappointed when he discovered that the Quacks had left the Smiling 001 that, be had lost all interest there, * He hadn't intended to go to the Smiling Pool on this night, He had gone over to 'the Laughing Brook and jt was while he was 'over there that the thought occurred to him that he ..ight just as well run down to the Smiling Pool to see if there/was any news there, Now, at one end of the Smiling Pool there is an alder swamp, It is through this alder swamp that the Laughing Lrook ecuters the Smiling Pool, Peter likes this little © alder swamp, because there is always a good hiding place handy, In the spring the big leaves of the skunk cabbage are everywhere. It is a very casy matter to hide under thos: big, broad, green leaves, When Peter reachial the Smiling Pool, he continued out on the bank where he could look wll over the Smiling Pool, He didn't expect to see Mr, and Mrs, Quass, But the thought had occurred to him that there might possibly Le some other visitors in the Smiling Pool, He saw no one, however, Not even Jerry Muskrat. Peeper the Hyla and Stickytoes the Tree Toad, were ing. ing as if they had nothing else in the world to do, He tried his best to sce them, but he couldn't, They were in the water somewhere with just their heads out, Peter hopped along the bank of the Smiling Pool toward, the lower end, He had it in mind that pers laps he would follow the Laughing Brook to the Big River. . Presently he came fo wher: the Laughin, Brook left the Smiling Pool, Right on the edge of the water he discov ered something that gave him quite @ start. Yes, sir, it gave him quite pn starts It was a feather, It was a feather from a Duck, I! was a feather from a Mallard Duck, Peter knew he couldn't be mistaken, He looked it over very carefully, Then he began to look along the shore for more feathers and presently he found several of them, They were floating lightly on the water, Two or three were on the shore, "Now, what do these feathers mean?" said Peter to himself. "I T know anything 'about feathers, these feathers were dropped this ery day. They were not left by the Quacks when they were here, for these feathers are 'soft and fluffy, Can it.be that another flock of Ducks has stopped here on the way North? That must be it.

"Oh, Jerry Musk- rat!" cried Peter, "You are just the fellow I wanted to see," "Well, here I am, You can see me to your heart's content," replied Jerry, "Were there some' more Ducks here, Jerry?" inquired Peter eagerly, "What do you mean by more Ducks?" Jerry demanded, "I mean, has there been another flock of Ducks here since Mr, and Mrs, Quack and their flock left? Was there a flock in here today!" explained Peter. "No," replied Jerry, "I haven't seen any Ducks here but the Quaeks, "Do you see these?" cried Peter, pointing to the feathers, "There's nothing the matter with { TIME TABLES pA a aa x ama C.
