A Good-night"Haw-haw! Hoo! hoo!" Phyllis listened again. "Haw-haw! Hoo! hoo! Hoo! Hoo!" "Oh, I see you now!" laughed Phyllis. The owl moved silently as a shadow and perched very near to the little girl. His great round eyes and his yellow bill gleamed in the starlight. "I heard you calling!" said Phyllis. "But I could not at first tell just where you were. I looked in a dozen trees before I came to you." "To-who? To-who-whoo-oo-oo?" questioned the owl. Phyllis laughed again. The owl blinked wisely. "I am going home to-morrow," Phyllis said. "I shall start to school next week. Some day, perhaps, I shall be as wise as you, Mr. Owl." The owl only blinked his great eyes. "But I'm sure I can never look so wise," she added, politely. "Hoo-hoo-hoo-oo!" hooted the owl, blinking sleepily. "If you will not talk with me I shall say good-night to you at once!" said Phyllis. "To-who? To-who-ooo-oo-oo?" "To-you! To-you-oo-oo-oo!" called Phyllis, running off laughing. "Papa," she said, a few moments later. "Papa, the hoot-owl would not talk with me!" "Wise, wise owl!" said papa, smiling at her over his newspaper. Next: The Owl Previous: All About The Meadow Lark
