! . CHAPTER III
' "DL.U13 JAY wns calling loudly In the
: -riVoods to the north: "Hero arc the
)! r Iook out for the cuts!" . , , .
Jn the east and south, other birds
wr shrieking the same alarm. "Hr
" r ihe Cain I Iook out for the cats I
, fesey and Billy were nuxstcd .as to
tvhlch call .they should heed. Unally
Jf'lly started for the east. "ou so to
the south." he shouted to TcW, waving
n , dob which he meant to use on the
catn If he caught them. , ,
PeBgy picked up a switch and ran
to the south. The shrieks of the birds
fculded her to a sunny glade where dozens
of .warblers had their nurseries. Here
rnother nnd father birds were nutterliig
about excitedly, while scores of baby
birds peeked anxiously over the edges
of their nests. ,
It took Peggy's sharp eyes only a mo.
inent to see the cause of all the clamor.
It was Tiger Cat. He was crawling
toward a nest of baby warblers, his eyes
sparkling grecdlngly. Just as Peggy
caught sight of him ho crouched to
spring. Another Instant tho baby birds
would be In his Jaws. ...
Then Tiger sprang, but as he leaped
Into the air. Peggy"s switch came lash-
, Ing down on his back, giving him n
stinging surprise. He hadn't seen her
coming up behind him.
Tho smarting pain made Tiger jump
so hard he flew right over the nest.
Down he came sprawling among the
briars of a wild rose bush.
"I'll get even for that," he squalled at
Peggy as he tore himself loose anu
dashed away. "I'll cnt all the bird
babies I can nnd, and all the big blr,ds,
loot"
Teggy ran after Tiger, but he soon
lost himself In the underbrush. As she
searched for hltn. she heard a loud
whack and a squalling to the cast.
"Er-owi Ouch ! Oh !" screamed tho voic
of Thomas fat
"There ! That will teach you to keep
away from the birds," shouted Rllly's
voice.
There was a scurry .among the bushes
and Billy came running up.
v "Did you see Thomas Cat scoot this
way?" be shouted to Peggy.
'No. did you see Tiger Cat scoot that
way?" answered Peggy.
"If those cats kill nny birds I'll give
them a licking when they get home."
added Billy, as he and Peggy searched
all about
"That will be too late to save the
bfrdft" mourned Peggy.
Just then they heard a burst of song
tit a tree close by. followed at once by
a loud, mowing.
'"There's a cat now. and It's' after n
bird," whispered Peggy. She and Blll.
vrept to an open place where they could
see the bird rHi-tl bidden b leaves
"Mew! Mewl" came the bat call
again.
"Look out. bird : A cat Is after you.
y-nrned Peggy.
"Mew! Mew " answered the bird.
'"Vhy, I believe the bird has swal
lowed a cat," cried Peggy In amazement
"Ho! Ho! ' laughed Billy, who had now
caught n good look at the bird. "Wh. .
that Is Mr. Cat Bird."
"He ! He ' Mew ! Mew ! Did 1 fool
you?" sang Cat Bird, grinning down at
fhem.
'.'Mew' Mew! sounded Tiger Cat's
voice far away In the woods. He was
answering Cat Bird's call.
, An Idea popped Into Peggy's head
If Cat Bird could fool her and Hilly -might
foot the cats and lead them on a
false chase nfter the birds.
Pretend you are a cat out hunting as
they are," she explained to Cat Bird.
"L,cad them lar away Into the woods."
"But come back when I whistle,"
added Billy, "for I'm goln gto make a
trau to catch those cuts nnd punish
them for, hunting the birds."
"Hell He I Mewt Mewt What fun!"
sang Cat Bird, dying away. In a mo.
ment his loud call rang through tho
woods. "Mew! Mew! Uood hunting!
Mew ! Mewl"
"Mew ! Mew I Mew!" answered the
voices of Thomas, Tiger and Blncklo
Cat. "We will follow you. Show us
good hunting, Mewl Mew 1"
ITotnorrow will be told how Billy
makes the cat trap.)

Air That's Fit to Breathe
Sturtevant Propeller Fan
The success of a theatre or restaurant, the profits
of a factory, often depend on supplying air that's fit
to breathe. Smoke, steam, gases, odors, fumes, dust
all should be removed from places where people
congregate.
For this kind of special, ventilation Sturtevant
Propeller Fan3 arc designed. They act independently
and locally in laboratories stores, restaurants, club
rooms, small theatres, lavatories, and factories, operat
ing smoothly and effectively, with, a minimum of
trouble and expense.
Sturtevant Propeller Fans
These units consist of a cast iron wall ring within
which the motor-driven fan revolves. They are
usually mounted in the wall of the building, acting
as exhaust fans with discharge out of doors. The
design is particularly strong and rigid.
Propeller Fans form one group of the great
Sturtevant family of fans, blowers and allied appara
tus for putting air to work Every Sturtevant ap
paratus is backed by three generations of develop
ment in the scientific application of the equipment
to the work to be done, resulting in the acknowl
edged leadership of Sturtevant in this field. v
Let a Sturtevant representative help you make the
right selection of apparatus for your need. His rec
ommendations will be based on a scientific analysis
of your problem. Write, wire or phone for him.

arc always close at hand when he
wants them, wrenches and pliers be
ing carried, each in a special com
partment, in-the lock-fitted pocket

gives more miles it gives a

It has, in fact, all the ear-marks

of quality. It lends to the pleas

Are You Hard oe Shoes?
The harder you are on shoes the more you
will appreciate Korry Soles of double-wear
leather. The army found them invaluable.
Their extra long life means a real saving to
business people who tread hard city pave
ments and to men whose work requires much
walking on rough ground. You can imagine
the economy they arc on the shoes of romping
children. They arc as good' for dress shoes as
they arc for work shoes.
Besides outwearing any others, Korry Soles
arc permanently waterproof, comfortably flex
ible, and won't slip in the wet.
Korry
Kroiwe
GENUINE LEATHER SOLES
Next time you take your shoes to be rc-solcd,
it will pay you to ask for Korry Soles.
Korry Soles are tanned by the J. W.' cc A. P.
Howard Company, of Corry, Pennsylvania.
They are used by reliable shoe repair men. If
yours does not Nhave them, notify our local
branch and we will sec that you a.e supplied.
