They bad ceme with Dame Instinct into the home of Mr. and Mrs. Hackee Chipmuck while seeking the summer bird who was singing spring songs in the autumn weeds. The beautiful fairy was Deme Instinct herself, the grown-up chip mucks were Mr. nnd Mrs. Hackee Chip muck, while the boy and girl chipmucks were Chip nnd Chipper Chipmuck.

Chip Chipmuck climbed into the nute, and Chipper Chipmuck get In bcslde him. Jack and Jnnct held back when they caw what the young chipmucks were "Dame Instinct might net like us te take her underground nute," said Jnnct. "(hip! Chip! Chip!" lnughed'Chlp and Chipper. "What does Uame in stinct use the underground nute for.' "Whv te find the summer bird that is singing n spring song in the autumn weeds," wild Jack and Janet together. "Chip! Chip!

Jack and Jnnct still hung back. , "Wc don't knew where te leek," said Jack. . , , "I de," said Chipper Chipmuck quickly. "When I was down in our deepest cellar today I heard singing. Pcrhnps it was the singer you seek. Jack and Janet became eager when thev heard that. It would be fun te find the singer nnd surprise Dnme In stinct with him when she weke up. he Jack and Janet hopped into the under ground auto. , , They waited for the underground auto te start, but it didn't move. "Hew de veu mnkc autos go? asked Chip Chipmuck anxiously. "Why, with sclf-btnrtcrs and clutches nnd such things," said Jack. He looked about for the usual levers nnd buttons nn auto has. but thH nute was dif ferent. It didn't have any lever or buttons nothing but seats.

Even nt this moment I felt that it was no plnee for n live, vivid young thing like Julie; she was like a flaming jewel umeng the somber browns and greens of the room. I felt her restless ness, her eternal conflict with the elder generation, but in a way I was power less te help her. She had been looking nt me as I spoke, from under her lashes, and suddenly bhe stirred and sat up straight. "Hawthorne, I think you have gene ever te the ranks of the enemy. I'm sorry I told you about Carrell, or thnt I introduced him te jeu. De you think I could go nwuy feeling that you were my chapcrene, thnt you Would watch me; that I shouldn't be free?
