A456655 in amen It was a bright May morning. lvlickie lVlouse,. in his space on the Typing Room blackboard, felt very much cramped indeed. Quarter of seven. It would be hours before lVIrs. Varney appeared. Perhaps he could stretch a bit. Quietly, being very careful not to smudge the DQ NCT ERASE sign, Nlickie climbed down from his blackboard, and ran to the back window. It was a glorious day and the world outside .was much more intriguing than the Typewriting Room. .Before he realized what was happening, Nlickie had leaped from the window .sill and was sitting on the third-floor hall window sill of Brown. The window beside him was open, and shuffling, hurrying sounds came from within. He en- tered and made his way cautiously along the hall. . Suddenly he saw a large Piercie-Rabbit coming toward him and muttering to herself: c0h, my towel and tooth-brush, I shall be late and the Duchess mentioned tapioca pudding for breakfast, but so many strange things had already happened, that he immediately followed the Rabbit down the stairs. Crouched against the wall, Nlickie watched with eager eyes what went on about him. lt was very quiet now and Nlickie set out for adventure by follow- ing Nlartin to the library. There he settled himself while Nlartin worked. Instantly he felt a strange stretching feeling and his whiskers brushed the top of the bookcase. It was indeed several minutes before Nlickie could become accustomed to his new size. Now, however, he had no fear of the overpowering creatures whom he had met during the morning. At noon he unhesitatingly followed the girls to the dining room and found an empty place at one end of the table. It was the strangest luncheon that Nlickie had ever seen. On one side sat the Parker who was endeavoring to serve lemon meringue pie with a soup ladle. On the other sat the Sue-Turtle who bewailed her fate between swallows of food. He felt very sorry indeed for the Sue-Turtle but he soon became interested in the geometric process of the Piercie-Rabbit who was con- structing and devouring onion sandwiches with great elhciency and skill. Mickie cared for neither onions nor lemon pie, however, and soon slipped away from the table to hunt some limberger in self-defense. Catching sight of VVebber and Nickie, Mickie followed them to the gym, where he watched them play basketball with the faculty. He was soon conscious of a slow, shrinking feeling. He tried to cheer loyally and could squeeze out only a little squeak. lVlickie was mortified and tried to slip away unnoticed in the crowd. He 'was very tired now and made his way back to his old place on the Typing Room blackboard. It had been a wonderful adventure. Nlickie had never realized that there were so many strange creatures in the world. But he would slee C b't visit again. p a 1 now and perhaps some day he would TERRY XNRIGHT. l 54- l
