THE NORTHLAND BIRD LIFE 
How Miss Snow Bun¬ 
ting did enjoy this! 
“Why ! ” she ex¬ 
claimed a f t e r a while, 
“no one ever wants to 
kill me. I sit right near 
Big White Bear and talk 
to him. I’ve done it 
many, many times, and 
I sing right by Mrs. 
Fox’s door step. I waken 
Omnok, the hunter, and 
send him out to find his 
breakfast, but never 
once did any of them 
want to kill me. I think 
it is because I am so very 
small, and then perhaps 
they really like to hear 
me sing.’’ 
Well, all the other 
little folks wondered 
what to think of that, 
but by and by Tommie 
thought of another ques¬ 
tion to ask. “Why did 
How Miss Snow Bunting did 
enjoy this!
