When Bob White and Mrs. Bob flew
ver to Farmer Brown's land after the
errible gun of the hunter had. banged
wice on the land of Farmer Jones,
rhere they and their cnuaren naa been
letting1 their breakfast, their hearts
rere heavy. You see, they knew what
hose terrible bangs meant, but they
:new that their children did not. And
o a terrible fear clutched at their
^earts, fear that never again were they
o all gather together happily.
"The terrible hunting season has berun,"
moaned Mrs. Bob, "and my darings
do not know how terrible is the
anger. Oh, Bob, do you suppose that
ome of them have been killed aleady?"
"I hope not," replied Bob. "Perhaps

a hie own heart he had little hope.
rott know, he had been watching and
ad seen one of the young Bob Whites
all at the first bang of that terrible
run. "I think we are safe here for the
resent," he continued, "and I will call
he children to us."
So Bob began to whistle, not the
heery "Bob White! Bob White!" which
s a message of gladness to all who
iear it, but what the hunters call the
catter call, an anxious note calling his
cattered family together. One by one
he young Bob Whites answered, and
he answers came from many direcions.
Bob continued to call that they
light know just where he was, and
>resently the youngsters began to arive,
very much frightened and not at
,11 understanding- what It all meant.
Job and Mrs. Bob anxiously counted
loses. Perhaps I should say they countd
bills. Fourteen they counted and
hen counted all over again. But foureen
was all they could make, and then
hey knew that one was missing. Bob's
leart sank. One was surely missing,
,nd remembering how he had seen that
ne struck down in the air he had litle
doubt that they never would see

Peter Rabbit, sitting In the dear Old
Brier Patch, had heard that distant
bang! bang! of the terrible gun and
later had listened to Bob calling. As
a deeper and deeper note of sadness
crept Into Bob's whistle Peter knew
that something dreadful had happened
and his own heart grew sad, for Peter
Is very sympathetic.
"Something has happened to one or
more of Bob White's family," said he
to timid little Mrs. Peter. "The hunting
season has begun again. Bob
ought to bring his family over here
to the dear Old Brier Patch. It is the
only safe place I know of."
Meanwhile little Mrs. Bob had been
going about from one to another of
her children anxiously inquiring if any
of them had been hurt. One she found
who had lost a few feathers at that
second bang of the terrible gun. and
this one felt rather sick, for hot, sting- 1
ing shot had torn the tender tlesh. But J
he was not badly hurt, and Mrs. Bob i
told him that he would soon be feeling :
all right again.

where we are while your father keeps j
watch. If that hunter comes over here
fly straight to the Old Brier Patch, i
where Peter Rabbit lives, and crawl I
under the thickest brambles you can j
find. That dog cannot find you there, |
for he thinks too much of his precious i
skin to have it torn by the brambles. |
You have learned how to meet all
other dangers, but this is the greatest
danger of all. Whenever you see a
man with a gun lie perfectly still. If
he finds you, fly as swiftly and as far
as you can, each in a different direction,

one dreadful time of all the year for
us. It is dreadful. I never could and
never can understand it."
