"I know very well how you act when you want to coax away a salmon trout, Smirre," said he. "Oh! is it you,- Gripe?” said' Smirre, and was delighted; for he knew that this particular otter was a quick and accomplished swimmer. “I don't wonder that you do not care wild geese, since age to get out to otter, who had between his toes. to look at the ' you can’t man-them."

Then he suddenly heard a sharp and ugly yowl from the bath-house park; and when he stood up he saw, in the pale moon-light, a fox standing on the pave-ment under the balcony. For Smirre had followed the wild geese once more. But on finding the place where they were quar-tered, he understood that it was impossible to get at them in any that there was a waterfall that , way; therefore he had not been he wasn t able to manage.

Under första halvåret i år var antalet fylleriförseelser för hela riket omkring 12,800 mot omkring 15 ,,200 under samma tid 1939 enligt nu föreliggande statistik. Antalet förseelser har sålunda sjunkit med cirka 2,400 fall eller cirka 16 procent. light; and, besides, the half moon hung high in the heavens, so that she could see a little. Luckily, she was well aquainted is these parts, because it had happened more than once that she had been wind-driven to Blekinge when travel-ling over the Baltic in spring. She followed the river as long as she could see it winding through the moon-lit landscape, like a black, shining snake. In this way she came down to Djupafors — where the river first hides itself in an underground channel, and then, clear and transparent,, as though it were made of glass, rushes down in a narrow cleft, and breaks into bits against the bottom in glittering drops and fiying foam. Below the white falls lay a few stones, between which the water rushed away in a wild tcrrent cataract. Here Mother Akka alighted. This was another good sleeping-place — especially thus late in the evening, when no Jämfört med förra året kan human beings moved about.

Det är som en hemkomst till gamla, kära Sverige. Pastorn förebrådde gamle Per Olsson för hans bristande kyrk-samhet. — Om pastorn kan svara mej på en viss fråga, så ska jag kom-. na till kyrkan, sade Pen — Vad är det för fråga? । — Jo, jaig ville gärna veta, vem som var Kains hustru. — Kära Per Olsson, sade pastorn, du kan aldrig bli mottaglig för religion så länge du intresserar dig för andras hustrur. other, which is steep and tree-grown is Djupadal Park, where people always stroll about on the steep and slippery paths to enjoy the wild stream’s rushing move-ment down in the ravine. It was about the same here as at the former place; none of the travellers in the least realized that they had come to a pretty and well-known place. They thought rather that it was ghastly and dangerous to stand and sleep on slippery, wet stones, in the middle of a rumbling waterfall. But they had to bte content, if only they were protected from carnivorous animals. The geese fell asleep instantly, while the boy could find no rest in sleep, but sat beside them that he might watch over the goosey-gander. After a while, Smirre Fox came running along the river-shore. He spied the geese immediately where they stood out in the foaming whirlpools, and understood that he couldn’t get at them here, either. Still he couldn’t make up his mind to abandon them, but sat down on the shore and looked at them. He felt very much humbl-ed, and thought that his entire re-putation as a hunter was at stake. All of a sudden, he saw an otter come creeping up from the falls with a fish in his mouth. Smirre approached him but stopped within two steps of him, to show that he didn’t wish to take his game from him. “Youre a remarkable one, who can content yourself with catch-ing a fish while the stones are covered with geese!" said Smirre. He was so eager, that he hadn t taken time to choose his words with his usual care. The otter didn’t tum his head once in the direction of the river. He was a vagabond — like all otters — ing up to the wild geese. But just tben it shrieked shrill and wild. The otter tumbled backward into the water, and was carried away as if he had been a blind kitten. An instant later, there was a great crackling of geeses wings. They rpse and flew away to find an-other sléeping-place. The otter came soon ashore. He said nothing, but commenced to lick one of his forepaws. When Smirre sneered at him because he hadnt succeeded, he burst out: “It was not the fault of my swim-ming-art, Smirre. I had raced all the way over to the geese and was about to climb up to them when a tiny creature came run-ning, and jabbed me in the foot with something sharp. It hurt so, 1 lost my footing, and then the current took me.” He didnt have to say any more. Smirre was already far off, on his way to the wild geese. Once again Akka and her flock had to take up a night fly. Fortu-nately, the moon had not gone down, and with the aid of its light, she succeeded in finding another of those sleeping-places which she knew of in that nei; bourhood. Again she followed who are weaponed teeth and claws, to this way; we, who less,” said Akka. with botb hound us in are defence- Smirre thought that Akka sound-ed scared, and he promptly said. “If you, Akka, will take that Thumbietot who has so often opposed me, and throw him down to me, 1’11 promise to make my peace with you. Then 1’11 never more pursue you or any of ypurs.' ‘Tm not going to give you Thumbietot,” said Akka. “From the youngest of us to the oldest, we would willingly give our lives for his sake!” “Since you are so fond of him," said Smirre, "I promise you that he shall be the first among you that I will wreak ven-geance upon. igh- | the | Akka said no more, and after Smirre had sent up a few more yowls, all was still. The boy lay all the while awake. Now it was Akkas words to the fox that pre-vented his sleeping. Never had he dreamed that he should hear any-thing so great as that some one was willing to risk life for his sake. From that moment, it could no longer be said of Nils Holgerson that he cared for no one. To be continued.
