Warren, in his eagerness to help
Mother -for he really was a very,
warmahearted little boy -had spilled
paint on the floor of the new porch of
their cabin in the woods. He had been]
commanded -yes, that is the right1
word --,to keep Teddy, the dog, off the
porch still the paint could dry.
Now it happened, just after this,
that some friends called to take War-;

not go, as she was, expecting company.
So the children went without her,
W,eeen was fascinated with the lit -

piece of cake for her. Seeing this, hie
hostess gave him a piece of each kind
of cafe: -•and one of each variety of
sande ?:, These he wrapped in paper
.wpkins.
When the party stopped once more
at the cabin. Warren rushed in, and
numpi& the bundles in his mother's
lap,' It. teed, "Se's, Mother, what I
brought you!"
In his great joy at giving Mother a

His mother was sitting right by the
spot of paint, and so Teddy jumped
into 'it and tracked, it all over the
porch. She could have said, "Yes,
that's lovely, dear, but now let's get
Teddy out, for just see what he's do-
ing," and later, very soon perhaps,
could have said something to remind
Warren that he was not to let Teddy
on the porch, •
Instead, what?
She took not theleast notice of the
lovely little present, but scolded War-
ren vociferously for letting Teddy In.
In fact, 'she shouted' at him, "Take
that dog out of here just as fast as
you can!"
Warren paused to say reproachful-
ly, Aloe! Mother! 1 thought I was
bringing you something nice, and see
'how you treat me."
Then.he put the dog out, He also
grabbed the bundles he had put in his
mother's lap and emptied the pieces of
cake, the sandwiches and even the lit-
tle paper fork oh the ground in front
of Teddy, . As he did so, his face was
not a pretty thing to see, so distorted
it was with resentment and rage.
Again hie mother spoke, still
angrily, "Warren Farnsworth, did you
give all these nice things' to that dog?"
Warren went and huddled himself
over on a log, his elbows on his knees,
and sobbed, not with repentance but
with hurt feelings and anger. l
