He greeted the marten in a very friendly manner, and wished him good luck with his catch. Smirre chose his words well — as foxes always do.

Here he paused; but when the marten only grinned impudently at him, he continued: "Can it be possible that you haven’t seen the wild geese that stand under the mountain wall? or are you not a good enough climber to ket down to them?” This time he didn’t have to wait for an answer.

He saw that they flew eastward until they came to Ronneby River. Then they changed their ccurse, and followed the river toward the south.

Neither of them no-ticed Smirre; and he sat quietly and watched the chase, which vzent from tree to tree. He looked at the squirrel, who moved among the branches as lightly as though he’d been able to fly. He looked rub his head with his forepaws.

Stor brist råder på de mest nödvändiga varorna och stenkol, bensin, te och kaffe äro i det närmaste slutsålda och lagren tomma. Smör och sockerbristen gör sig alltmera kännbar. Stor arbetslöshet väntas även och de 400,000 käre ska flyktingarna äro helt beroende av regeringens understöd. Till följd av nybyggnadsverksamheten i Helsingfors, där ett hus blir färdig för bebyggelse varannan dag, beräknas bostadsbristen att miskas betydligt till instundande vinter.
