who ever heard of goose being sea-

not reply, and the dog took them back
TO shore.
The goose and the hen went to bed
and the pig and the dog had to get
their own supper. They went into the
pantry, where the shelves were loaded
with jam and jellies, and there were
rows and rows of pies and cookies and
cake in the jars. The pig stopped be-
fore these good things, but the dog
went on to another shelf. where there
was a roast of beef and a ham.
