MR. JAY BIRD AGAIN
By Farmer Smith
Father Duck was so surprised to hear a
olce over his head that he forgot nil nbout
his hurry. The laughing stopped and there
came from tho tree
"Hello, there! You sleepyhead what are
you trying to do at this time of night? It's
long past your bedtime."
.lust at that moment David Crow Joined
Father Duck, and Mister Jay Ulrd shouted:
"A pair of you late birds. Ha! Ha!"
"You ought to know what wo are doing!"
Ehouted David Crow. "Didn't you Juvt gle
rno the wrong signal? You mischievous
fellow. Some one will catch up with you
one of these days and then and then "
"Oh, pshaw!" fall ly shouted Mister Jay
Bird. "I madp a mistake I meant to tell
you they were going the other way and the
wild ducks would bo safe."
"You got your wigwags mixed, then,"
said Dald Ciow.
'1 guess von did !" added Father Duck.

"Perhaps I hae n chance to mix tho slg

"You aro too kind-hearted for that," re
p. led Ulster Jay Ulrd.
Hy this time David and Father Duck were
beginning to get angry, Mister Jay Ulrd
noticed It nnd t-nld:
'Calm oil sell cs. Calmness Is a virtue,
pt'ri It does no good to get all excited nnd
angry In limes of danger"
"There would have been no danger If It
hadn't been for .on," said David.
Then suddenly both David Crow and
Father Duck made a dash for MtMer Jay
inrii, deiei mined to punlsli him good for his
trick They knew It was his habit to play
tricks, but they regarded this as a serious
matter
After Father Duck gaioip looking for
Mister Jay Ulrd, he flew home ns fast ns ho
could, nnd when he reached there he found
Mrs. Duck nnd the children nil huddled In
one corner
"Mother, dear "' he shouted "Come
quickly. I have learned one lesson tonight,
We must all practice Hying. There Is time
enough to settle down now for a little nap

"Hut never fear, for I have arranged for
us to be warned; but never, ncer believe
that wicked Jay Ulrd. He is the Joker of
the forest."
When dawt came the Duck family made
their way outdoors. Tho winter had been
long and the added fright occasioned by
Mister Jay Hird's trick had made Mrs. Duck
and the Ducklings pass a restless night.
They were glad of tho sunlight.
It was hard walking on the ground, and
the children were glad when Father Duck
announced that they were ready for their
lb log lesson
"Is the danger over?" nsked Buzz. "I
don't want tolturn Into a flying machine
