when he sGw a sad-faced jack stand

mule sort of g%rinned and shook its
head, but didn't hee-haw. Then little
Paul tried again. This time the mule
whirled about quickly, raised his heels
and the next sounds that little Paul
heard were the clang of an ambulance

bined. The surgeon from the German
hospital bandaged up Pauls face and
hands, upon which he had slid along
the street after alighting. Then his
