And Chatterer was angry ! Oh my , my , how angry Chatterer was ! For a minute he could n't find his voice , because his anger fairly choked him . And when he did , how his tongue did fly ! `` You thief ! You robber ! What are you doing in my storehouse ? '' he shrieked . Happy Jack backed away hurriedly , for though he is much bigger than Chatterer , he has a very wholesome respect for Chatterer 's sharp teeth , and when he is very angry , Chatterer is a great fighter . `` I -- I did n't know it was your storehouse , '' said Happy Jack , backing away still further . `` It does n't make any difference if you did n't ; you 're a thief just the same ! '' screamed Chatterer and rushed at Happy Jack . And what do you think Happy Jack did ? Why , he just turned tail and ran , Chatterer after him , crying `` Thief ! Robber ! Coward ! '' at the top of his lungs , so that every one in the Green Forest could hear . CHAPTER X STRIPED CHIPMUNK 'S HAPPY THOUGHT Waste seems to me a dreadful sin ; It works to lose and not to win . Thrift will win ; it can not lose . Between them 't is for you to choose .
