Father Squirrel cu' a back and
a front door and then, what l'uu it
waa to choose their beds.
Ru«ty chose a red one with
white dots, Chatter a green and
purple one, Mr. Squirrel a brown

Next day the Squirrels found
that uuts aud cora had been spread
on racks near their house so the
Squirrel family played the whole
fall, knowing they wculd have
pleuty for winter.
But cue night a terrible thing
happened. They heard a great
stamping and a man's angry voice
shouting, "Mary! come he.re. Tho.^
squirrels have gnawed a hole in
my no>v straw suitcase and1 draged
a lot of my neckties iuBide, be

corn you put there to dry."
The Squirrel family waited to
hear no more but dashed out the
window and. back to thedr home in
'he bi ogak. There they burrow
ed iu the snow and ate roots the
rest of the winter.
The next year they relined their
old nest and, never mentioned
bungalow again.
