Nothing else had been taken from Camp Rest-a-While except the bacon and eggs, and as Bunker Blue was going to the village that day he could buy more meat for Mother Brown. The eggs they could get at the farmhouse where they bought their milk. So, after all, no harm was done. "The only thing is," said Daddy Brown, "that I don't like the idea of tramps prowling about our tents at night.

In a little while they made a turn in the road that brought them within sight of the tents of Camp Rest-a-While. "Now we're all right!" cried Sue. "Bow-wow!" barked Splash. "Oh, children! where have you been?" cried Mrs. Brown, coming out to meet them. "I sent Uncle Tad off one way to look for you, and Splash in the other. I was just thinking of starting off myself!"

"No, I don't guess we could, Bunny. But what are we going to do now?" "I guess we'll have to walk back to Camp Rest-a-While," answered Bunny. "We can leave the boat here, and Bunker can come and get it." "Can't we sail back in our boat, with the umbrella, same as we sailed down here?" Sue wanted to know. "We could if the wind would blow right, but it isn't," said Bunny.

"This tent won't blow over; will it, Daddy?" asked Bunny. "No, it's all safe now. Go to sleep." But it was some little time before they were all asleep again. Nothing more happened that night, and Bunny and Sue were up very early the next morning to see what the storm had done. Camp Rest-a-While was not a pretty sight.

"I hope they don't send Tom back," said Bunny. "He knows everything about this lake." After supper several men came to Camp Rest-a-While. They were some of the county officers. Eagle Feather and some of the Indians were present, sitting by themselves, and Mr. Brown sat near Tom. "May we stay and see what happens, Mother?" asked Bunny. "I guess so.

"Are you going to make a trap to catch something?" the little boy asked. Ever since he had come to Camp Rest-a-While he had begged Bunker to make a trap to catch a fox, or a squirrel, or something like that. Bunny did not want to hurt the wild animals, but he thought he would like to catch one in a trap, and try to tame it. "No, I'm not making a trap," answered Bunker.

"And no matter where he meets you he'll come up to you and shake hands," said Bunny. "Once Splash makes friends he keeps 'em. My name is Bunny Brown," he went on, "and this is my sister Sue. We live at Camp Rest-a-While on the edge of the big woods. We came out to see if my father had come back from fishing, and we saw this cave and came in." "Is there a way out?" asked the ragged boy.

I never remember when I had all I wanted to eat." On the way along the lake road to Camp Rest-a-While they passed a farmyard where many geese, ducks, turkeys and chickens were kept.

The box was set on the ground, under a big chestnut tree. "Where are you going to put up the tents?" asked Mother Brown. "Right where we are now," said Daddy Brown. "I think we could not find a nicer spot. Here is a good place for our boat, when we get it. It is nice and dry here, and we can see all over the lake. Yes, this is where we will put up the tents for Camp Rest-a-While."

"I have been trying, ever since we started, to think of a good name for it. 'Rest-a-While, will be the very thing. That's just what you said a moment ago you know. 'Let's rest awhile and look at the lake. So we will call this Camp Rest-a-While! Isn't that a good name?" "Why, yes, it does sound very nice," said Mother Brown. "Camp Rest-a-While!
