He is not easily discouraged . When he sets out to do a thing , usually he does it . If he starts to get a thing , usually he gets it . No , he is n't easily discouraged . Happy Jack knows this . No one knows it better . So Happy Jack did n't dare to go home . He knew that any minute of night or day Shadow might surprise him there , and that would be the end of him . He more than half suspected that Shadow was at that very time hiding somewhere along the way ready to spring out on him if he should try to go back home . He had stayed in the room of Farmer Brown 's boy until Mrs. Brown had come to make the bed . Then he had jumped out the window into the big maple tree . He was n't quite sure of Mrs. Brown yet . She had kindly eyes . They were just like the eyes of Farmer Brown 's boy . But he did n't feel really acquainted yet , and he felt safer outside than inside the room while she was there . `` Oh dear , oh dear ! What shall I do ? I have no home , and so To keep me warm and snug and safe I have no place to go ! '' Happy Jack said this over and over as he sat in the maple tree , trying to decide what was to be done . `` I wonder what ails that Squirrel .
He seems to be doing a lot of scolding , '' said Mrs. XXXXX , as she looked out of the window .
