The tree was a large one and had brandies. large hole and in this the squir rels decided to make their winter home lined the walls so as to make the house nice and warm. While there w'as no snow on the ground they 'ould find plenty to eat. but after the snow came they could not die for nuts or twigs and they very hungry. A lady who lived nearby began to throw nuts and bits of bread and cake to them and it didn't take them long to know that they wouldn't have to work for food, but could Just run up to the house and get all they wanted, lu a little while they grew very tame, ande aeh lady's window to get their expected breakfast. m many big In one of them was a U fil They carried leaves and m J grew morning were near the Sometimes It was a big nut Dr a nice piece of apple, and once they found a big piece of cake Now these little fellows got so lazy and fat that they didn't even want |o go tor their breakfast, but seemed to expee, (hat It ought to he brought to them. One day when they started out they heard a noise and. as they hopped around the corner, there was a big dog waiting for them, the four fat squirrels he began lo bark and run after them.
