How pleased the little bright-eyed sparrow was with the worms, and how lovingly she watched her little mate as she ate them and divided them with her little ones! It was so pleasant to have him back again after those dreary days!
"I think I'll move you all over to the place I was telling you about," said the sparrow. "There are plenty of fine building-spots there, and this old shanty is in a pretty bad condition. Everything is handy there, too, and I don't consider this a very genteel neighborhood."
"If we live here much longer, something will have to be done to the house; it really isn't safe in a high wind."
"Well, as soon as we get this business settled about Nancy, I'll pick out a good situation and build," answered the sparrow. "Now I'll be off, for there's no time to lose, as I promised Mrs. Polly I'd be back in good season."
